Burston Prime Farming Strategy and Radshare Tips
Optimal Approach:
- Go for the Blueprint first. It has the lowest item drop rate in the Burston Prime set and will be the hardest to farm, when comparing to other parts.
- Best relic to focus: Neo K9.
- In full radiant relic squad, you have a 51.78% chance per run vs 16.67% when running solo.
- After that: Receiver from Meso A9 (16.67% per-player for Radiant).
Refinement Tips:
- Use Radiant (100 Traces) on Neo K9 while going for the Blueprint; always run radshares in groups.
- At current rates, you can expect roughly 1 Radshare runs for 50% odds for the required prime part, compared with about 4 solo runs.
- Run Intact/Exceptional Relics only when farming for common or uncommon primes (these are great for ducat farming), use Void Traces for the relics with hard to farm parts. Especially Axi Relics.
