💠 More About Best Farming Spots for Glimmer, Cores & Shards in 2025
Farming resources like Glimmer, Enhancement Cores, and Ascendant Shards in Destiny 2’s Edge of Fate expansion has become a key part of progression. Whether you're crafting god-roll weapons, upgrading exotic armor, or preparing for raids, these materials are essential.
But let’s be real: grinding for them can feel overwhelming if you don’t know where to look. That’s why we’ve put together this complete guide covering the top farming methods for 2025. You’ll learn exactly where to go, what to do, and how to make the grind as smooth and efficient as possible—whether you're a solo player, a casual grinder, or a hardcore Guardian.
And for players who’d rather skip the farming entirely, we’ll also explain how BoostRoom can handle the grind for you, fast and safely.
⚙️ What the Service Is and Who It's For
This service is for any Destiny 2 player who wants to skip the repetitive grind and jump straight to the good stuff—like raids, PvP, high-end crafting, and endgame challenges. Whether you're trying to masterwork your gear, unlock seasonal upgrades, or simply build up a stash of currencies, Glimmer, Enhancement Cores, and Ascendant Shards are non-negotiable.
BoostRoom’s farming service lets you earn these materials fast, with zero stress or wasted time. It's safe, fully customizable, and handled by experienced players who know every farming method and shortcut in the game.
📜 How Does It Work? – Farming Glimmer, Cores & Shards Explained
In Destiny 2, each currency has its own use:
- Glimmer is the basic currency, used for bounties, mods, infusions, and vendor purchases.
- Enhancement Cores are needed to upgrade armor energy levels and weapons.
- Ascendant Shards are the rarest—used to masterwork exotics and top-tier armor.
In Edge of Fate, new vendors, seasonal content, and repeatable missions make it easier (but still time-consuming) to farm these materials.
Below we’ll break down the most efficient 2025 farming spots for each one.
🏞️ Best Farming Spots in 2025 – Glimmer
Glimmer farming is all about speed and quantity. You’ll want areas with high enemy density, public events, and Ghost mods to multiply your earnings.
Here are the top Glimmer spots this year:
1. EDZ Public Events Loop
The EDZ remains the best spot for Glimmer in 2025. Stack a Rainmaker consumable with a Ghost mod that boosts Glimmer from kills. Run the Heroic versions of public events on rotation for non-stop payouts.
2. Altars of Sorrow – Moon
This event spawns huge waves of enemies quickly. Use AoE weapons to rack up kills fast. You’ll walk away with a ton of Glimmer and occasional engrams.
3. Cosmodrome Patrol with Chest-Finder Ghost Mod
Run laps while opening loot chests and collecting planetary materials. Pair this with a Glimmer booster for a passive, steady income.
4. Material Exchange
Got too many planetary mats or Enhancement Prisms? Rahool lets you trade materials for Glimmer in the Tower.
💥 Best Farming Spots in 2025 – Enhancement Cores
You’ll need Enhancement Cores constantly—especially for armor upgrades and weapon infusion. Thankfully, there are several efficient ways to get them.
1. Legendary Lost Sectors (Solo)
These are a staple. Clear them solo and you’ll get exotic gear and a high chance of Enhancement Cores from dismantles. Speedrunners can clear them in 5–7 minutes.
2. Gunsmith Rank Packages
Pick up bounties from Banshee-44 and complete them while farming other activities. Each rank-up package has a great chance of giving Cores.
3. Dismantling Masterworked Gear
Masterworked legendaries drop from Nightfalls, Raids, and Crucible. Dismantling these nets you a Core almost every time.
4. Seasonal Vendor Ranks
Vendors like Shaxx, Zavala, and Drifter reward cores when you level them up. Focus on their weekly challenges to maximize gains.
🔮 Best Farming Spots in 2025 – Ascendant Shards
These are the crown jewels. And yes, they’re still a grind—but we’ve found the smoothest methods for 2025.
1. Master and Grandmaster Nightfalls
Still the most consistent way to get Shards. Each completion has a chance to drop one (or more, during bonus loot weeks). Make sure to run with a fireteam and the right build.
2. Vendor Rank Resets
Every time you reset Zavala, Shaxx, or Drifter, you’re rewarded with an Ascendant Shard. Focus on playlist bounties and match completions.
3. Tower Trade-In via Rahool
Got 10 Enhancement Prisms and 50,000 Glimmer? Trade them for a guaranteed Shard. This method works great if you're sitting on excess materials.
4. Season Pass Milestones
The Premium track gives a few guaranteed Shards. Free track gives at least one, which is perfect for F2P players.
