Eridium can be obtained from normal enemies for the event’s duration and Mayhem Mode will see increased drops overall. You can even avail of discounts at Moxxi’s Vault Line slot machine and Crazy Earl’s. So if you’re looking to purchase cosmetics or Anointed Weapons from Earl, this is the event for you.
Of course, some Eridium deposits will require smashing which is only possible via a special item obtained through the story. Play up till Eden-6 to ensure you obtain the item.
