How am I supposed to get 15k anima?

For real, I want this single transmog from a rare, but it the requires rank 3 venthyr mirror thing. The problem is it costs 15k anima? How am I supposed to get that if I get like 35 from a WQ, I can do max 5 WQs a day or I will go insane. Doing the same quests over and over again, there is nothing in this game I hate more than doing quests and this the only way to obtain anima? Give me a break…

Inb4 people come here and say “lol, I just got it by playing the game, didn’t even really care for it”. Sure, you just “casually did 500 WQs, no big deal” This game got ruined by WQs… First it was flying and now it’s all the cool cosmetics… “Hey, you wanna do these same quests for 5000 days straight to get a mount?” Very cool content you give us Blizzard. Why do people suck this up like it’s nothing? You guys wouldn’t prefer something cool and interesting engaging content instead of this? I quess not…

Just because you can predict a response doesn’t make it invalid.

Just play the game.

World quests aren’t the only source of anima and 5k isn’t even that much if you’re actually trying.

Yeah, sure. The 35 I get once per day for completing a dungeon really helps.

and it’s not 5k, it’s 15k

If I do a dungeon per day I’d have to wait 429 days to get 15k anima.

Just do wq’s that give 105-140 anima and occasional 250 arena. Takes 10-20 min and you get 500 a day easily. If you put a bit more effort you can get about 1k in less than hour.

I already spent like 15k on 2mounts and NF backpack its not that hard. You get tons from doing rated pvp + quests

I’m here. Sadly it’s true.

You get 35-105 per wq usually it’s 105 though, 35x3. Also at least 2x250 ones per week.

Rares give anima too but that’s negligible 5-35 each, best ones to hit are the bastion ones at aspirants crucible imo.

Also you get it from m+ but don’t know the amounts.

Should really have a scrapper that gives anima.

Yeah, 170 ilvl rogue with no legendaries reporting for duty, Lets hit up a few arenas with the bois

None of my mains are Venthyr and there is no way I’m going to gear up a rogue I don’t play just for some anima

Well, that rare is going to be there for a while, so you can just ignore Anima for the most part and just get the mirror network once you earn enough naturally just by playing what you enjoy. If you want it sooner then that, then world quests are your ticket.

Blizzard said that they don’t want players to get everything in 2-3 months. The expansion is lasting 2 years. can you get 15K in 2 years?

Btw, this is what Blizzard said. I am neigher agreeing with Blizzard nor disagreeing. I personally stopped caring about farming stuff like mounts, cosmetics, etc long ago. If such stuff happen to come from normal game play then fine, otherwise I just ignore it.

By arena, i mean maldraxxus wq where you kill 2 elite mobs/bosses. Not PvP arena.

Some days, you can easily get 1k of anima. Some days not. Just keep an eye on the world quests with anima, and don’t forget the two weeklies in Oribos that grant 175 anima each.

Weekly PvP for 1000 or 1500 honor - 250 anima (the ranked weekly gives adittional 3x250 anima tho’)
weekly WB - 250 anima
weekly Brokers in the basement - 2x5x35 anima
Random 250 anima WQ - 250 anima
weekly LFR Castle, all 10 boss - 1500 anima? Around that
Daily Epic BG win - 5x35 anima
Daily “Bet on yourself” - 3x35 anima
Daily Random rares/chests - depends…
Daily conductor rare/WQ - around 3x35 anima… possibly more, really

And cherry pick the short but good WQs daily, like the help the forge master, or ride the flaywing, ballista guarding, expose 8 bogarts in the theatre, disguise as a dredger in the party, bastion the flaping quests, colossus patrol, make an aspirant out of you; and so on, tons of short but very good anima income WQ out there!

I takes 2 - 3 months to get a single cosmetic item, it’s way too long bro

I wouldn’t mind if it was a grind you could just do in a few days by playing 16 hours a day or some interesting content, but WQs? Come on… WQs for 2 - 3 months, we have already done WQs for the past three expansions, I’m getting sick and tired

You get like 5k a week easily if you at least try to farm some. If you don’t, 2k-3k per week shouldn’t be a problem. Work for the item, don’t expect it to be handed to you.

oh here we go. It’s the age old story yet again…

“I don’t play the game but I want the rewards”

How about instead of transmog farming and complaining, you actually play the game, gear up and let the rewards come to you?

No, that would be too long for a real usable item. Transmog is for your extra Anima
