These Tomes, when fully charged, will grant you 15 Eyes of Q'bthulhu  (Eye Encyclopedia) or 1 Tentacle of Q'bthulhu (Tentacle Tract). Unlike Legendary Tomes, they don't have any cooldown and can be used as much as you like, making them a great tool for Flux grinding.

10. Farming Dragon Eggs - in order to Loot Collect them. A very profitable activity, however, it's only available to the more experienced players. One of the best picks would be farming Thallasion in Open Water Biomes for Deep Sea Dragon Egg Fragments. Since world bosses have higher Life and Damage compared to regular Dungeon bosses, it's advised to approach them with a group of players
    Projected income:
    Deep Sea Dragon Egg - Loot Collect it for 400 Flux
     
11. Market flipping - usually the most profitable way in any game. The basic idea is to buy something cheap and resell it for more. This can be achieved in several ways:
    Refreshing search results for popular and rare items if someone did not list them for way below the market value
    Having in-depth knowledge about the game and upcoming Updates and Patches. Demand on certain items raise significantly after Patches and Updates and buying it in large quantities before that happens, is the way to go. Usually, you can predict how can market react to a new update just by reading the Patch Notes. I can't give you exact examples which may work right now or in close future for more or less obvious reasons, but I just wanted to introduce you to the basic mechanic of Market flipping.

We hope this gives you an insight on how to efficiently farm Flux in Trove.
