Best Custom Moves Farming Guide for Super Smash Bros 3DS
If you are having trouble farming for all the custom moves for your characters, these tips may help you finish collecting all the moves and parts.
It should be noted that you will always have higher chance of collecting moves for a specific character if you use that character as the playable one. However, every characters have chances of collecting custom move parts for another one.
Classic Mode + Home Menu Button trick
One of the easiest method to get custom move is through farming classic mode with the home button trick. However, there are a few key points to remember.
When you are picking the paths, pick the paths for the characters that you want to farm the custom moves for. The chances for the moves are increased for the characters that you use as well as the character that you are fighting against.
While the roulette during classic mode is going, tap the home button to pause it, then tap home to unpause and pause until the silvery bar is just below the highest available wrench reward. Continue the process to get yourself close to the target. Hit home to unpause and start holding A to select it.
It should be noted that you also obtain better equipment through fighting in higher difficulties of classic, so you may want to fight in the harder modes if you are able to finish them.
Smash Run
Use a speedy character such as Shiek or Greninja, custom their skills so that they have the fastest setup. Farm and search through the entire field for treasure chests to grab anything with a wrench which nets you a Super Smash Bros 3DS custom move part.
Note: You can also create a super speed Mii Fighter for the purpose of farming custom moves. Since Mii Fighter does not have custom moves of their own, the custom move parts that they obtain will only be for other characters.
Smash Run Multiplayer Strategy:
If you farm Smash Run with other human players online. All of the rewards are shared by all the participating players. This means that you can actually farm much faster with a couple of friends or likely minded players.
Trophy Rush
Use DK to smash through the trophies fast. Set the time on max and get as high as chain as possible.
3. Trophy Smash. Play as DK (Even though a lot of custom stuff and moves will drop for him, you will also get moves, costumes, etc for other characters. With DownB and rolling to dodge the shock blast, I rack up over 1m GSP and leave with about 25+ trophies and 3-5+ Custom Parts.
