Where is the best place to get cheap photons?

PSU: Xbox-360

I'm trying to find a good place to find/buy lots of photons for free/cheap. By cheap I mean roughly 25-40 meseta per in player shops and/or a mission where they drop pretty fast. I use them to craft cheap armor to feed my armor PM (I know you can just recreate but I want to 'earn' every point of the armor.) and they increase the success percent to 98% from 70%, saving me roughly 20k in the long run.

The problem is that I use roughly 96 photons per hour, and the player shop search feature makes finding them hard, if at all possible for cheap. So does anyone have any recommendations, or should I just keep on searching for them in the player shops?

And yes, when I say Photon I mean photon, not elemental-photons. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Hmm. I never thought they would be high in demand. I have photons, but I never put them up for sale yet, I think. I know I put up materials, but I think photons weren't made available.

I'll give (yes GIVE) you my entire stock of em if you want.

I don't know if they are in high demand, however, when searching for "Photon" it gives you all the -photons in addition with the regular photon. 1/2 the shops don't even carry the regular, much less sell it for a pretty cheap price. Visiting all the shops on the list today got me roughly 70 photons. I bet when I try later they will hardly be any new ones up. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_frown.gif

EDIT: I wouldn't want to take them from you but I will pay you for them! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Well if you have any el-photons we could definitely work something out.

[Eliash]

I think I have a few, I'll check in about an hour or so. Trying to farm money in sleeping B for my PM. http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_smile.gif

Spam Linear Line C runs. Photons tend to drop like mad there.

[Eliash]

Thanks, I will try that later if/when I can't find anymore. I think I should be set for the next feeding with about 30 more photons, but after that...

[Sychosis]

I'm free at the moment. Should be in uni 1 on the 5th floor of the colony waiting with Aurelianis.

[Eliash]

Alright I'll head over with some photons, after I get back on. Random boots FTW (especially when you are nearly done with the mission and a B-rank weapon drops that sells for 1.2k)

EDIT: Once again thanks! http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

I'll be sure to give you the next 8 photons I find to make up for the 8 I was missing http://www.pso-world.com/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_razz.gif

Not like I have any use for 'em

Sadly I buy more regular/Im/El photons from the NPC shops than from PC shops. Before I used to be hesitant about buying Photons for 200 a piece...but now I buy 99-packs of photons on a regular basis.

[Eliash]

I know what you mean. >< Luckly my Armor PM is already 70 so a few more days of this and it'll be done.

Also anyone wants a 50% Light Lightline and a 50% Fire Lightline? Not sure how useful they would be but if anyone wants...
