"Peace is a lie"
If you do the weekly dungeon quests (God knows I don't), they're 175 anima apiece, and the weekly PvP quests (which I also don't do) are 250 and 500 anima respectively. So that's a good bit to start off, but it won't get you anywhere near 5k unless you grind WQs.
So to get anything beyond the sanctum upgrades you need to do all the anima WQ's every day for 6 days a week...
I don't think that is 'nothing'. Especially when WQ's are boring, tedious and a bunch of them only give 1x35 token.
Why do dungeons and raids drop such pitiful amounts? why do WQ's with 1 token reward even exist?
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death
1. seems you cant count.
2. no its not a daily, but it is an option, so any one specific day you can do the world boss for 250 anima
3. you seem to have done some of the anima world quests cause uhhhhh.....
not including world boss there is 945 anima up. as you can see, 140,105,105,105,105,70,105,70,70,70
and its even more then 945 cause im in warmode meaning a bonus 10% anima.
- - - Updated - - -
it takes you 2 fucking hours to do a couple world quests? you need to stop rp walking from quest to quest.
- - - Updated - - -
yes and? that only equaled to 5000 anima, as each time you did the quest it removed the reward, meaning once you did all 10 dailies you no longer got anima.
but here you go
todays world quests equal 945 anima.
- - - Updated - - -
945 available today from just world quests. s0 very easy for you to get 1k in a single day, do all these thats 945, if you then kill some rares give 35 each, or even just have warmode on like i do and boom youve got 1k.
- - - Updated - - -
that is not how world quests work buddy im sorry.
all world quests have ATLEAST a 24 hour timer.
yes world quests spawn every TWELVE HOURS not 6 hours.
but they spawn and will last until that time the next day, meaning as long as you log on and do your world quests once a day you are fine.
if you want to get the most out of a single day you can do them all, wait a few hours then do the new ones, but you dont need to, ALL WORLD QUESTS (except the pvp quest) have atleast 24 hours on them. (the pvp world quests are every 6 hours)
also there is many that only take 2 mins lets look right now
colelct 10 anima cones, yeah literally 2 minutes
ride a flayedwing, yep 2 minutes
kill 3 mobs on the back of flayed wings, yep 2 mins
kill 1 mob and carry its slime 2 feet, actually literally 20 seconds
speak to 5 owls, and 5 people, yep 2 mins
carry 5 anima cones to the middle, yep literally 2 mins

Because once you have high level followers, and you have unlocked all the upgrades for your base, you are gunna have 0 use for anima other then those cosmetics.
- - - Updated - - -
when expac first launched i did every single anima world quest for the first week, then after that only the ones that were 70, then once i hit 35k i only did the ones that give atleast 100, and thats how i am now, and im constantly at anima cap, even after cosmetics.
- - - Updated - - -
please tell me how this screenshot is exaggerating? i would love to know how i can exaggerate so hard to bend reality to my will, i need to know how to utilize this superpower you think i have.
- - - Updated - - -
Again please tell me how i can exaggerate hard enough to bend reality to my will like you seem to imply i can do, cause i said "you can get 1k in a day easily" and here you have screenshot proof, but you say thats impossible and i am exaggerating as i "always do"
- - - Updated - - -
yeah they really should have, especially since that anima was ONLY given on the FIRST completion of the daily, after that you get 0 anima, so it would make sense to bring everyone up to the same level, instead of nerfing necros down AFTER they have fully gotten their free 5k anima from it.
- - - Updated - - -
"its worse then it ever has been" in what fucking world is this worse then spamming islands 24/7 for azerite, or that one dungeon that is a soul boat i cant remember the name of for artifact power, you serious?
- - - Updated - - -
which is lower then normal raid gear, and also easily replaced by pvp gear.
- - - Updated - - -
i mean if you ACTUALLY PLAY THE GAME and do the anima world quests, you will freely be able to buy all the cosmetics and upgrades as you unlock them, if you take your time and only do some of the big world quests it might take a few more months, but it 100% wont take 2 years to get them all.
- - - Updated - - -
not true, i mean close, but not true.
4k is the TOP and that is only head, shoulders, and chest, the rerst goes 3k, and then down to 2, then 1.5k, weapons do cost 3.5k aswell, and so do backs.
Are you so sure about this? Mine seem to spawn about every 5 hours, look at the time left on your picture, and I looked at mine. It seems like they are close to 5 hr increments
8 hrs left
13 hrs left
17 hrs left
22hrs left
This is consistent with what I see in game.
2hrs 58M
7hrs 46M
12hrs 54M
17hrs 22M
22hrs 10M
But you are right I have 875 anima available right now (Did WB this week already)
"Peace is a lie"
Yeah sorry i was wrong on the 6 hours, that is a new thing, im used to BFA where there was only 2 spawn points for world quests, the daily reset, and then 12 hours later.
in shadowlands there is new world quests spawned every 6 hours.
but they all last ATLEAST 24 hours. which means as long as you log on once a day yo ucan do them all.
also only 875 for you? odd, for my its 945, and thats WITHOUT world boss.
oh its the 70 from the pvp world quest, yeah so if you turn on warmode there is an extra 70 anima in ardenweald for you (again warmode also gives you extra anima, so if you want anima, warmode is a buff)
Yes, cosmetics. Which means that if you can't keep up, you're not exactly missing out on much. Renown only requires a pittance.
Doesn't require all world quests, not doesn't require world quests at all. And if you need till Friday, you're doing something wrong. I've yet to have a week where i don't finish it immediately on reset day, usually with quite a bit of anima to spare.
5k is easy. 10k is doable but requires some effort. Neither requires running dungeons or raids.
What's it with you guys and throwing strawmen everywhere? No, you don't. You need more than 5k if you want to buy the cosmetics now, while you're still upgrading and still want to finish upgrades as early as possible. Alternately, you can just delay one or the other.
You're all being greedy. Anima is fine.

Actually, the timers aren't synchronised (different zones can have refresh at different times). But for each WQ that runs out, a new one is activated in the same zone, so the total number of WQs active is static. Also, they all last 24h except for the Rare Elite for the epic calling, which is synchronised with the calling.
I missed doesn't require ALL. I am not doing anything wrong as I don't really care about getting it, so only do WQ when I have to on the do 3 WQ covenant daily. Even when it is defend xxx, I would rather spam a quick heroic (not sure why M+ doesn't count) to fill the bar.
I CHOOSE not to do WQ if I don't have to and am ok with not getting anima. Raiding gets you 35/boss. Stupid when a WQ can give you 140 (and I am not getting gear drops in raid, so...), a M+ gives you 35 at end (again stupid). I know you get gear in raids and m+, well in theory you do. Only 3 raids drops since release, but that is another thread
So for people like me who work all day, the time raiding and running M+ is more fun than grinding out anima. So no, not doing anything wrong.
P.S. I am Venthyr and our command table is broken so not a lot there
P.S.S. good thing Anima isn't really important so I am cool with this choice
"Peace is a lie"
The most difficult thing to do is accept that there is nothing wrong with things you don't like and accept that people can like things you don't.
Past the 1000 anima per week quest until you unlock all of soulbind, it's not attached to player power in the slightest. It is theoretically completely optional past that point. And the 1000 anima per week is so ridiculously easy to get. 250 from world boss, I usually get a 250 WQ at least once a week, 350 by completing the 2 dungeon weeklys from Oribos, leaving 150 anima, which is incredibly easy to finish up within a couple of minutes.
You're being absolutely ridiculous, this is nothing at all comparable to artifact/azerite power, which offered constant increases to player power.
Completely correct, and that has already been extensively covered in this thread on several separate occasions. I definitely agree that these rewards being cosmetic and thus optional is a huge improvement to previous expansions. It just isn't material to the argument.
Why gate these rewards by making people grind? I can't speak for anyone else, but I personally don't enjoy grinding and wish it was relaxed a substantial amount. I would have a lot more fun if anima rewards were roughly quadrupled.

That doesn't really work with the argument you keep making. Because you would still have to grind for anima regardless of the amount being quadrupled or not. The method to get anima won't change when the amount of anima you get does. So if it is a grind now it will be a grind later. Just do a few dailies a day and you'll have surplus anima. Weird right? Playing the game actually gets you more.
The rewards are not gated by a grind. 6 or 7 dailies a day that take less then an hour to do is by no means a grind.

You know a community is bad when moderators lock a thread because "...this isnt the place to talk about it either seeing as it will get trolled..."
People on this thread defending farming world quests daily on 4 characters for cosmetics for what i am guessing is at least 6 months to a year. If this is not detached from reality i don't know what is.
Please, you do that. Don't come tell the rest of us that that callous distegard of time and fun is something the rest of us want to go through though.
It is completely unnacceptable. You will see when rewards get buffed how you wasted days of your life on nothing and trying to defend the indenfensible to justify it.

it does not take 6 months to a year, you are literally crazy.
also who activly plays 4 charecters? seriously, how fucking much of the community do you think has 4 main charecters?
are you gunna complain next that raiding takes too long, and so we should be able to just log on and auto-collect raid gear, cause clearing the raid 4 times a week would take forever?
"Why make players play the game to unlock rewards"
How long have you been playing wow, that only now you are complaining about having to unlock rewards instead of just logging on and being given all the loot and rewards the game could offer?
- - - Updated - - -
Funny you say that cause there is...
6 up right now that offer above 90.
then there is also the daily in maldraxxus so thats 7.
and you dont need to be on all day, you only need to log on once a day to be able to do all the world quests.
lol and just as i say that 2 more spawned!
so im gunna finish up this ful lclear and show just how much anima i got from doing the AP quests from today. NO WEEKLIES
It all got flushed into the Maw? Like, that's the story of the expansion, right?
I'm sure we'll get more in future patches, to the point where we're spewing anima out of every orifice like some sort of interdimensional anima god. But not in 9.0.
1. go kill world boss get 275
2. go kill the other weekly elite world quest get another 275
- we already at 550
3. go do 3 world quests
1012 ap, done in under 15 minutes.
again, how is that "inauthentic"
- - - Updated - - -
LOLOLOLOL yes, i have hacked the game and made blizz give me more AP from world quests by atleast 50, yep. totally.
i mean its not like you can literally go to wowhead right now and see the rewards there and it literally confirms the exact same amount, but yeah no sure, blizz has punished you and made it so ONLY YOU get less AP from world quests then EVERYONE ELSE.
So i went and did all of today's AP world quests just to test just to see how much i could get, no weeklies, no "every 3 days world quests" no rares, and here is my total
All blues are worth 35 each
the greens are worth 3, excpet the scrolls those are 5.
Here is the total amount desposited, this took me 58 minutes to do, i was eating and went to the bathroom and well posted on here during that time aswell.
yeah, almost 2000.
i had 945 available, then 105, then a 140, then a 105, and 2 70's ontop, and warmode bonus, plus some from the mobs i killed from some world quests.

all the bolded ones give OVER 90 anima, you really are saying that they dont exist, and im lying? Or are you just admitting you dont even know how to read your own map?

War resources was also required to unlock the base upgrades, the vendor goods, and also research progress, aswell as one of the possible currencies for your weekly bonus loot.
Anima gates covenent progression and a ton of cosmetic stuff
war resources gated war campaign progression and tons of cosmetic stuff.
- - - Updated - - -
Not really, i just did all the world quests today and got almost 2k anima, that means i can buy a cosmetic peice every other day and still have some leftover depending on the thing i buy. easily enough to buy a base upgrade.
