How to Get the Orbs in Heavyweight Fishing?

Orbs in Heavyweight Fishing can be unlocked in several ways. First, they can be tied to a specific questline given by NPCs. Secondly, they can be tied to newly added areas and game mechanics, so always make sure to check them out whenever they drop. Finally, some of the orbs can be acquired by summoning them through the game's banner system.
To unlock Orbs in Heavyweight Fishing, you should start off by opening the Orb menu and checking your missing entries. Proceed to look through your active quests, NPC dialogues, item tooltips, and inventory for clues for the Orb you are trying to obtain. Since the orbs can be connected to quests, NPC interactions, puzzles, update areas, progression milestones, or specific items, you should not immediately scour the entire map without knowing what you are looking for. Only once you have obtained a clue should you travel to the area connected to the objective and carefully check nearby NPCs, signs, doors, caves, docks, platforms, buildings, and other unusual objects for interactions. Keep in mind that some Orb locations may remain inactive until you complete a specific quest stage, so if nothing happens, make sure to go over the aforementioned actions before returning to the location. It is also a good idea to carry any related keys, tokens, discs, or quest items and leave some inventory space available for rewards.
After completing the final interaction, check your inventory to confirm that the Orb has actually been registered. This step is especially important since the game has been buggy lately, so much so that even talking to NPCs is unavailable. If the Orb still does not appear, try rejoining the server, as this can refresh delayed NPC dialogue, interaction prompts, or updated content.
Alternatively, some orbs can be acquired through the banner system. You can find it on the left side of your screen, under the "summon" button. The banner system works like a gacha minigame, with rarer and more exclusive items having smaller drop rates, orbs included. Given the state of that, you will likely need to acquire plenty of crystals, which are the main currency needed to perform those summons. The best ways to get them are by completing quests, redeeming daily login rewards, and redeeming free codes the game generously offers.
