Dragonspyre Academy Farming Guide
reagents found here - color on map ~ number found (typically)
Ore - Green ~ 2
Stone Block - Blue ~ 2
Lava Lily - Red ~ 1
My Route:
I usually start by the teleporter and run through the ore spawns until I reach the end of the stairs. I run and check for the ore by the lava lily, then grab the lava lily and run around the perimeter of the statue’s balcony, grabbing the stone blocks along the way. I then collect the other ore and stone blocks by the right side of the plaza, and grab the stone block in the bottom right corner, before running up the stairs by the Forum sign, checking the stone block spawn there, and switching realms. Then I do it in reverse.
Notes:
- this route is amazing for diamond and fossil farming for two reasons:
1) it’s waaay less busy than the Atheneum, so if you’re not willing to wait till midnight to get a decent haul, then sacrificing the Atheneum’s three ore spawns for two isn’t too much of a big deal. I’ve been farming it for a few years and I’ve seen maybe two people in total.
2) The run time of this route, as I mentioned in my Floating Mountains farming guide, is almost exactly 30 seconds, and tends to be a little less if you skip the lava lily, so it’s very efficient to farm for multiple hours
- I’ve also noticed that compared to some other places, the rare harvest diamond and sandstone/fossil farming is quite high, and so is the number of ore per harvest, which is more commonly two or three than one
*one of the ore spawns toward the right side may be inaccurate, as I haven’t seen it in a while, but I remember farming it, so I put it there anyways
Other:
- I don’t think I’ve ever seen a chest spawn here, be it silver or gold
- the stone rose from Zeke’s quest is by the ore above the one on the crystal grove sign, between that building and the area boundary, though you have to approach it from the northern side of the building to get to it
Happy Farming!
