If there’s one currency in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero that runs out pretty fast, it is Dragon Balls.
When you’re playing the game for the first time and completing the Stamp Book, you’ll get plenty of this resource. Once that part is complete, finding both the Shenron and Porunga Dragon Balls can become very difficult. Thankfully, there’s a pretty handy way to get these mythical balls quickly, which will also help you to raise the proficiency level of your characters.
Dragon Ball Sparking Zero Dragon Balls farming method explained
Like every other video game, farming here refers to a systematic and sustainable way of getting a resource (Dragon Balls, in this case). This method doesn’t exploit any cheat/bug, and you can keep getting plenty of balls by simply playing.
Before we begin with the process, there are two prerequisites you need to fulfill.
- Pick any character with a powerful Ki blast that can be spammed.
- Use the Rising Fighting Spirit Battle Ability item (the best way to get this item is by purchasing with Zeni from the shop).
If you’re short of funds, just use a character whose Ki Blast requires two Ki bars.
- Go to the Battle menu.
- Set up an offline match against CPU, and use the World Tournament stage.
- Turn on the Out of Bounds Rules option.
- Set the CPU difficulty to Super (lower this if required, but it will affect the drop rate of the Dragon Balls).
- Equip the Ability item from the Customize menu, and put the selected character in the first slot.
- Fill the remaining slots with low-proficiency characters (this will help you complete two tasks at once).
Press the R2 and Square buttons to execute a Ki blast, and press the start/options button. This will skip the dialog, and your character will perform the Ki blast first thing in the battle. This will cause your AI opponent to fly outside the ring, and you get to score an out-of-bounds win. If you fail to do this, simply restart (rather than wasting your time to get a legitimate out-of-bounds win).
In my experience, you get a Shenron Dragon Ball after 7 fights on average. Porunga Dragon Balls can take a lot more attempts (it took me 27 attempts to get the first one). That said, it takes about 40 seconds to complete one of these fights, so you can easily get at least a few Dragon Balls in an hour or two.
Make sure you’re not maxing out the total number of balls you can hold at a given time (seven) in Dragon Ball Sparking Zero.
