How to get corruption fast?

General

So I’m just starting the endgame and was super excited. I’m currently trying to get to 125 corruption to continue the harbinger questline. However, I’ve spent about 3 hours in one timeline and only saw 2 shade of oboros. I got my corruption to 124 only and I’m still waiting to get another one to finally move on. I made like 2500 stability already in this timeline, so I’m moving at an ok pace(imo), but the thought that it takes about 4 hours of just hoping to find the shade and then doing that for twice as long on the next timeline and even longer after that just makes me want to quite at this point tbh.

Is there a trick to bump up corruption faster or more deterministically increase it?

It usually doesn’t take so long. Are you going in a straight line? That’s the best strategy, since they’re almost always along the “edge” of the web.
Also, you will increase more corruption if you kill the mono boss before killing the shade (even more if you kill him more than once).

It will also depend on your clear speed for each mono. If you have a slower clear build, then it will take longer.
It should be around 20-30 echoes in a straight line until you start seeing them.

Cool, thanks to both of you. I’ll check out the videos and I’ll try the going in a straight line method then
