Do not fear! Orb hunting tips are here!

Let's face it, Orbs of alchemy are hard to find!
It's not like after you read this guide or follow my tips that you'll drown in orbs.

No, sadly not.

But, I will be telling you what missions to play, what depths you can find them in etc.
So, I hope this will help you out on your orb hunt!
(The stars in the "what missions to play" sections display my personal experience with those missions, 3 stars meaning very good for orb farming, 1 star meaning not so good for orb farming).

Now before you continue on reading, keep in mind that playing missions on ELITE DIFFICULTY will increase your chance in finding orbs.

So, play every mission you do on elite, and if you're lucky enough... you might end up like me! :D
