PsienceWins Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Which method do you think is faster? Should I go for the Crystal Slimes/Blue Dragons kills, or do I play Block Defense Plus repeatedly? I need 23 more small blocks to buy the last 2 swords for the trophy and neither method sounds very appealing to me. I'm already on my FROM playthrough and have got all the small blocks that I could this time around from the world map and yada yada. If I get lucky the farming from Crystal Slimes/Blue Dragons seems faster to me. What do you think? How did you get your last blocks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsienceWins Posted November 17, 2010 Author Share Posted November 17, 2010 For the record, Block Defense > Tirnaco's Errand is the fastest I've found so far. About 6 small blocks in roughly 20 minutes. I only have 17 more to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joooooink Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 For me Tirnaco's Errand was waaaay faster, I needed to grind $$$ for maxed out anyway so I started farming dragons/crystal/zombies. After a couple of hours and I only got 2 blocks, when you get the hang of Tirnaco's Errand it's really easy and fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nualum Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 Block defense did it for me. Grabbed my last small block last night - All Swords complete! Given what I know now, I definitely would not have gone for the 100% first playthrough - It's been way too long scrounging for blocks since i've actually played the game.

equiray Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 farming is the easiest. go right of the castle past the bridge, go south and loop around. go north into area with 6 rocks on frum mode. constantly go back and forth in the screens and guaranteed at least one dragon/slime appears. sometimes 3 or 4. use freeze spell kill, rinse repeat. when you run out of magic, use a tent. this method also helps farm gold for giga sword upgrade. best of both worlds.

The absolute fastest way to earn Small Blocks is to play the Block Defense Plus mini-game, specifically the Tirnaco's Errand level. To play this level, talk to the cat in the northwest corner of the first floor (ground floor for you UK folks) of Dotnia Castle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luxxx Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 When does Tirnaco's Errand become available? I'm on the 4th boss and there's no cat in the castle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeyCow Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I believe it's when you finish all the main Block Defences. But yeh Block Defence is the best way. I finished up farming the rest of my blocks in like 2 hours, it's really easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4manaka Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 farming is the easiest. go right of the castle past the bridge, go south and loop around. go north into area with 6 rocks on frum mode. constantly go back and forth in the screens and guaranteed at least one dragon/slime appears. sometimes 3 or 4. use freeze spell kill, rinse repeat. when you run out of magic, use a tent. this method also helps farm gold for giga sword upgrade. best of both worlds. This was my chosen solution in from mode as I enjoy farming while seeing some TV, and this is way more relaxed than doing Tirnacos. I got money for giga sword and 20 extra blocks for Spelunker, as I plan to buy excalibur for that run ... european version, yep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
