Collecting 147k anima for stuff you may or may not care about in the future and spending dozens of hours on “must complete this argh” might be your thing. But then again, if it was you wouldn’t be trying to speed it up if you were having much fun would you?
And Stygia.
Remove the death tax and make Stygia be Anima. This one currency should have been enough for this content. Open World content is driven by Anima.
I also agree that callings should have rewarded it. I was quite surprised when I did my first calling that I got no Anima (especially as back then it was rarer than hen’s teeth).
I’m almost 3/4 the way through my journey of getting all 4 sets from all covenants. Anima is plentyful now, just target the 500 anima quests on a bunch of characters, Korthia is still the best supply though I target certain quick quests if they award anima and the a quick sweep (15 mins max per character.)
As others have said Grateful Offerings are the limiting factor now for me and don’t really need to be here anymore (if at all) , they should have been removed when we reached 80 renown (we have nothing else to prove to the covenant now as per the story)
For me I’m sad I’ll never complete all of them since Path of Ascension is simply broken. I have seen no one on YT (and I have looked - please point out someone to me if you know) that has completed with WITHOUT cheesing, bugging out fights or using the double spawn method. Even the Wowhead guides remain unfinished. I doubt they will fix it now.
Getting this achievement is simple because Polegos is just immortal. But second achievement for dark set is harder and you cannot do it without exploiting game mechanics.
I was doing Korthia las two week every day and I got one anima quest each day. I don’t have reason for camp for rares because I got everything from them. I just need thousands of anima because Blizzard don’t know that we have gold.
Ps. I also don’t have idea what do with Valor points if there is no vendor.
The vendor is by the flight path on the lower floor of Oribos you need 1.4K M+ score to use it though (sadly on each character this season - bad move Blizz )
I have but he have nothing that I will be interested in. Why I ever want 210 itlvl when I have 1500 rating?
For valor you shoud be able to buy missing parts that you never drop from dungeon because of bad luck. Valor always was bad luck protection and now it is crap.
Because the boxes are BoA. I have so much Valor on my main that I’d rather spend 40k on boxes to get a ruby or scale for my alts than grind ToP/DoS on them. I have ran ToP waaaay too many times, Ruby didn’t drop. Bought ~40 boxes, got a 210 ruby, upgraded it to 246 instantly. Much better than running ToP even more.
Also used the boxes to replace parts of my gear (on alts) that didn’t have optimal secondaries with pieces that did, and then upgraded them. I didn’t need to target dungeons, and could just sign for any key and farm valor. Much more convenient.
Could be better, don’t get me wrong, if we could target specific pieces. But even the current vendor has its uses.
