Once you max out a gen (so 480 total from scratch) you can turn excess frags into broken blades. This’ll be your main renewable income of that, but it’ll take a while till you can take advantage of that.
Greens are worth 1 blade per frag, blues are worth 2, purples 3 and golds 5.

Once you get your greens to 6 stars, each draw gives you 70-100 broken blades, so if you're getting magatama from black iron and ban-kin as well, you can use your one magatama purchase with BBs per week and still run a decent profit.

Yeah long way to go, my best gen(keiji maeda) only 4 star at the moment, As Theron said, it takes a little bit of dedication, but you'll get there! We all were in the same place. Another tip is to pick a single library general and focus on them to max out, since their hard sweep will give 2 fragments per sweep, thus if you use 4 sweeps (normal + hard) on them as well as the general daily tasks, you'll get 12 fragments each day. I honestly prefer getting only the 10 (skipping the two normal sweeps), but it should be slightly faster if you decide to do the normal sweeps as well. It seems like a lot but time flies by... I never would have thought I would have my Motonari maxed but now he has 6 stars. Challenge conquests with different factions also give quite a bit of broken blades, but they're not renewable. Still, it's a good supplement to get the equipment sold in the store. Greens will still be your primary source of broken blades, but they can only be farmed by pure chance. So patience and pulling the gacha is key to that. Good luck on your journey to get more broken blades!

I definitely *don't* recommend using normal sweeps (at least if you have multiple library generals unlocked). It's simply throwing away fragments, for rather little gain. If you're starting from nothing and get no draws, it will take you 38 days with 12 fragments VS 45 with 10 to reach six stars. But in those same 45 days, spending those two sweeps on another general, you'll get 180 fragments - enough to upgrade to level 4. And that's before we've even talked about the other rewards you're losing. A little patience often pays off and this is no exception.

Doing the math shows that if you do the normal sweep strategy I mentioned you'd get 420 broken blades from the week's difference between the two strategies (assuming the library general you chose was Motonari or Masamune). It sounds good until you realize you've completely neglected the growth of your other generals and your equipment to get to that point. Ignore that I mentioned anything about normal sweeps, just focus on your hard sweeps.

A little follow-up question here: if you have one 6-star general already (Mori in my case), is it best to focus on grinding Date and Hojo or farm for broken blades?
Although having broken blade gear might be nice, it still takes forever to buy just one decent item. At the max capacity (including hard/normal sweeps and Bugosyo), I can get 13 Mori fragments, which translates into 65 broken blades per day. It means that to buy Great Kage, I will need to farm for 40 days (2600/65). And that's just one item. For that time, you can max out Date from the 4th lvl and have some extra Hojo fragments.
What do you think?

What do you think? Push to maxing out Date Masamune at least and use your daily missions to get him up to rank 6, especially if you use him often. Ranking up generals not only unlocks skills (although Masamune's skills are a little on the more lackluster side far down his tree) but increases their stats, which is good if you want Masamune to hit harder. Definitely avoid ever doing a normal sweep, see Theron's comment above for why I was wrong about that. Plus, once you get both of them to rank 6 you can farm broken blades even more efficiently, although it might also be in your best interest to pull other library generals for items/ranks if you actively use them.
Since you have 5 sweeps you can pull Masamune and someone else, your mileage may vary if you want to pull a different library general or pull Motonari for some broken blade income. But the easiest way to get broken blades is by just pulling the gacha, and eventually you'll be getting them from all the greens that you're pulling. If you have all greens maxed at rank 6, you'll get around the same amount if not more than a day of a single gold general farming just by doing a single 10 pull.
We'll get Great Kage and all the rest of the broken blade items eventually. It'll just take time and farming.

What do you think? It's my opinion at this point that Date + mounted teppo is the best general in the game. So I definitely recommend maxing him out. Plus, his sweep gives you iron ingots, which you can use to forge masamune (cheapest purple sword) and then smelt for black iron, which in turn you can use to purchase magatama and forging patterns. Once Date is maxed, it may be worthwhile to keep farming his sweep for the black iron as much as the broken blades. Apart from him I'd farm the other library sweeps as well, the generals aren't so important (though Hojo and Chosokabe both deserve a spot in your lineup), but silk thread, silk cloth and iron plates all end up being bottlenecks for purchasing and upgrading equipment. Bugyosho missions I use for upgrading generals that don't have library chapters, I'll start using them to farm BBs once I have a few more maxed (right now just Maeda).

I don't really recommend doing sweeps specifically for broken blades unless you see nearly no more benefit to ranking up the library gens. Like doing Motonari sweeps for blades when you still have a bit to go on Motochika, Masamune or Yoshihisa isn't a good idea.
The main source of broken blades is going to be Magatama rolls. A single 10 roll past the point where you've maxed out the greens (so 800 total rolls) is gonna yield like 80 blades on average. That's 16 gold frags worth of blades. I'm approaching the point where my blues are going to max out, and once I'm past that I'll earn twice that amount.

Thank you for the answer, also @theron of Acragas, have mentioned that Date with mounted teppo is the best general. What gear do you use with him?
