Where to Find Giga Sphere
If you would rather just buy it, the seller is Wandering Trader at 890 Gold.
It also turns up in supply drops — best odds are the Grasslands drops at 50%, 3–5 per crate, with 1 other region carrying it as well.
It also shows up as world loot — treasure chests in the Forest, field drops in the Mount Obsidian and chests in the Forest, and 19 more pools besides, usually 1–2 at a time. Higher-grade chests carry the better rolls, so the ones guarded by a camp are usually worth the detour.
Sending a team on the Secret Realm of the Forest expedition brings some back without you leaving base.
Chests inside 4 caverns, including Astral Mountains Cavern and Cavern of the Dunes, can hold it as well.
