Earn new characters, clothes and gear by making wishes in Dragon Ball Xenoverse. All it takes is seven Dragon Balls — but finding them isn’t so easy. Here we provide tips for farming, what wishes are available, and which missions to play to maximize your time.

Working to correct the time stream in the Dragon Ball universe can be tough, but there are benefits to the job. Shenron, the massive dragon spirit that’s so important in Dragon Ball Z makes an appearance in the Xenoverse, and if you bring him seven Dragon Balls, you’ll gain one wish.

To find the numbered orbs, play through certain Parallel Quests where you’ll encounter special enemies called Time Patrollers. These tough adversaries carry rare items — including those coveted Dragon Balls. Learn all about it in the complete guide below and make your wishes come true.

Dragon Ball – Collectibles Guide

Collecting Dragon Balls allows the player to make a special wish from Shenron in the Hub. These powerful relics allows the player to unlock secret playable characters, new costumes, lots of cash or even instantly gain a level.

Dragon Balls are found in Parallel Quests and can be re-obtained as many times as the player wants.

Farming Dragon Balls

While playing Parallel Quests, Time Patrollers will not spawn every single time. A Time Patroller will appear after the first combat room. Clear the first set of enemies — if a Time Patroller does not appear, choose to “Retry” the Parallel Quest for another chance.

Parallel Quest 12 – Fierce Battle! Ginyu Force is one of the best places to farm for Dragon Balls. There is no first fight — simply fly forward and a Time Patroller should appear. If they do not, “Retry” and try again. Rinse and repeat to quickly earn enough Dragon Balls for a wish.
