Aniimo: Best Farming Methods in Aniimo — Complete Guide

What This Guide Helps You Do#

This guide teaches you how to identify high-quality artifacts, prioritize which domains to farm, and build a sustainable long-term farming strategy that strengthens your account efficiently. You’ll learn the exact metrics (Stat Value and Crit Value) to evaluate whether an artifact is worth keeping, and you’ll get a clear roadmap for which artifact sets to farm in what order based on your account stage.

It’s best for newer and intermediate Aniimo players who feel overwhelmed by artifact farming, don’t know which domains to prioritize, or aren’t sure whether their artifacts are actually good enough to keep.

Requirements & Prep#

You’ll need access to artifact domains (unlocked through story progression) and a strongbox crafting table to convert trash artifacts into useful sets. It also helps to have at least one main DPS character built to a reasonable level so you know which artifact sets benefit them most. Daily route farming requires no resin but adds about 5 extra minutes to your daily routine.

Optional but helpful: Bookmark or screenshot the Stat Value formula so you can quickly evaluate artifacts as you farm. Many players find it useful to keep a simple spreadsheet of their target CV and SV values for each character.

Route Overview#

Aniimo artifact farming isn’t a single route but a tiered strategy. You start by understanding how to measure artifact quality using Stat Value (SV) and Crit Value (CV). Once you know what “good” looks like, you prioritize domains in a specific order: first Silken Moon to support both DPS and supports, then strongbox conversions into universal sets like Noblesse and Viridescent Venerer, then Deepwood Memories for Dendro teams, and finally Marechaussee Hunter if you’ve got Furina. Alongside domain farming, you run daily routes to passively farm mora and artifact EXP without spending resin. This two-pronged approach—targeted domain runs plus passive daily routes—lets you upgrade artifacts efficiently while preserving resin for character and weapon leveling.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough#

Step 1: Learn to Calculate Crit Value (CV)#

Before you farm a single artifact, you need to know how to judge quality. The foundation is Crit Value (CV), which combines your crit damage and crit rate rolls into one number. The formula is simple: CV = crit damage + (crit rate × 2).

Here’s a concrete example: a feather has 9.3 crit rate and 5.4 crit damage. Multiply the crit rate by 2: 9.3 × 2 = 18.6. Add the crit damage: 18.6 + 5.4 = 24 CV. That’s your baseline number for this piece.

Step 2: Calculate Stat Value (SV) by Adding Usable Substats#

CV alone doesn’t tell the full story. You also need to account for other useful substats. Add any rolls in stats your character actually wants—ATK%, Elemental Mastery, Energy Recharge, HP%, etc.—to the CV to get your total Stat Value (SV).

Using the same feather example: it has 24 CV, 10.5% ATK, and 56 Elemental Mastery. The ATK% counts as-is: 10.5. For Elemental Mastery, use this rule of thumb: treat 1 EM roll as roughly 5 SV points. The feather has 56 EM, which is about 3 rolls (56 ÷ ~19 per roll ≈ 3 rolls). So 3 rolls × 5 = 15 SV from EM. Total: 24 + 10.5 + 15 = 49.5 SV.

Here’s the important part: SV is character-dependent. A feather with high HP% and Energy Recharge might have 29.5 CV but 0 extra SV value if your DPS character doesn’t use those stats. For that same piece, a different character like Kinich who values Energy Recharge would count those rolls, boosting the piece’s SV significantly.

Step 3: Know Your Target SV and CV Numbers#

For a general DPS character, aim for more than 25 CV and around 35 SV per piece. This typically means about 3 crit rolls on a single artifact, which is achievable over time with consistent farming.

These targets shift based on character and set, though. Natlan DPS units that already gain crit rate from the Obsidian artifact set will value crit rate less than crit damage, so you’ll chase more ATK% and Elemental Mastery instead. Support characters like Bennett, Diona, or Citlali—who don’t deal significant damage themselves—will prioritize Energy Recharge over crit stats. The key is understanding what your character actually needs, then farming accordingly.

Step 4: Upgrade Artifacts Using Resin-Free Daily Routes#

Once you’ve got artifacts to upgrade, you need artifact EXP and mora. You have two paths: spend resin on leylines and artifact domains, or farm daily routes without spending any resin. A lot of players underestimate the second method. By following a quick daily route as part of your regular play, you can accumulate up to 100,000 mora and thousands of artifact EXP without touching resin. This is especially valuable if you’re already using resin for character levels, talents, and weapons—the daily route method lets you save that resin instead of wasting it only on artifact fodder.

Step 5: Prioritize Your First Domain: Silken Moon#

If you’re a newer player with at least one Nod-Krai DPS, your first domain should be Silken Moon. Why? Because the sets it drops benefit both your main DPS and your support characters simultaneously. This dual benefit means you’re not “wasting” runs on sets only one character uses.

Step 6: Use the Strongbox to Craft Universal Sets#

Take all the trash artifacts you’ve accumulated and convert them at the strongbox crafting table into either Noblesse Oblige or Viridescent Venerer. Both sets are incredibly strong and work across almost every team composition.

Noblesse Oblige is usable in almost every team as a universal buffing set since most DPS units scale from attack. Build at least two usable Noblesse sets: one with HP% main stats and one with ATK% main stats, depending on what your supports need.

Viridescent Venerer is mandatory for almost every account. It provides 40% resistance shred, one of the strongest support effects in the game. It works with Sucrose, Jean, Xianyun, and any Anemo support. Craft this set using the strongbox because the domain itself is inefficient—the second set in that domain usually isn’t useful for most teams.

Step 7: Farm Deepwood Memories Domain for Dendro and Flexibility#

After you’ve established Noblesse and Viridescent Venerer, your next domain priority is Deepwood Memories. This domain drops two important sets: Deepwood Memories and Gilded Dreams.

Deepwood Memories is absolutely mandatory for any Dendro-based team. It’s one of the only ways to provide Dendro resistance shred, and since Dendro reactions are still dominating the meta, this set is extremely valuable.

Gilded Dreams is incredibly flexible. It can provide up to 150 Elemental Mastery in Hyperbloom teams where a character like Ineffa or Kuki acts as the solo Electro driver. It can also provide extra ATK if you’re running multiple characters of the same element. That flexibility makes it one of the best general-purpose DPS sets in the game.

Step 8: Farm Marechaussee Hunter If You’ve Got Furina#

If you own Furina, your next farming target should be Marechaussee Hunter. This set is almost best-in-slot for many DPS units that can pair with Furina. The second set in that domain is also incredibly strong for off-field skill damage dealers like Escoffier, Furina, and Fischl.

Step 9: Build Tenacity and Song of Days Past as Backup Supports#

Use your strongbox again to craft Tenacity of the Millelith for HP-scaling supports like Furina, Columbina, and Kuki. This set provides additional attack buffs to your DPS, making it valuable even if it doesn’t seem critical right now.

Also craft Song of Days Past as a backup option if someone is already holding Noblesse. Build at least one or two usable sets of each. They may not look important in the short term, but they’ll massively help your account long-term and keep your builds future-proof as new characters release.

Farming Loop / Route Efficiency#

The artifact farming loop in Aniimo isn’t time-bound but resin-bound. Each domain run costs resin and yields 1–4 artifact pieces depending on the domain difficulty. Rather than chasing a “perfect loop,” focus on resin allocation: spend 60–70% of your artifact resin on your main DPS first, then distribute the remaining 30–40% to support sets and utility pieces.

For passive farming without resin, daily routes yield approximately 100,000 mora and thousands of artifact EXP per week if you spend an extra 5 minutes daily. This isn’t a replacement for domain farming but a supplement that reduces the resin cost of upgrading artifacts. The loop resets daily, so consistency matters more than efficiency per run.

Troubleshooting & Common Mistakes#

• Mistake: Farming the wrong domain first. Fix: Start with Silken Moon, not a specialized domain. You’ll benefit both DPS and supports, making resin feel less wasted.
• Mistake: Keeping artifacts with high CV but zero useful substats. Fix: Calculate SV, not just CV. A 29.5 CV piece with only HP% and Energy Recharge might be 0 SV for your DPS—don’t keep it.
• Mistake: Spending all resin on artifact domains and ignoring character levels and weapons. Fix: Allocate resin across all three (artifacts, character leveling, weapons). Use daily routes to farm artifact EXP without resin so you can save resin for other needs.
• Mistake: Not using the strongbox to craft universal sets. Fix: Convert trash artifacts into Noblesse and Viridescent Venerer. These sets are so strong that the strongbox is often more efficient than farming their domains directly.
• Mistake: Building support artifacts before your main DPS is solid. Fix: Prioritize your main DPS first (60–70% of resin). A strong DPS carries teams more than perfect support pieces.
• Mistake: Assuming one target SV works for all characters. Fix: Adjust targets based on what your character actually needs. Natlan DPS units want less crit rate and more ATK/EM; supports want Energy Recharge over crit.
• Mistake: Ignoring long-term flexibility sets like Tenacity and Song of Days Past. Fix: Build at least one or two usable sets of each. Future characters will use them, and it keeps your account future-proof.

Advanced Tips & Time Saves#

FAQ#

What is Stat Value (SV) and why does it matter in Aniimo?#

Stat Value is the sum of your Crit Value (CV) plus any other useful substats on an artifact. It matters because CV alone doesn’t tell you if an artifact is good for your character—a high CV piece with useless substats (like HP% for a DPS) is a trap. SV forces you to evaluate whether the other rolls actually help your character, making it the most beginner-friendly way to judge artifact quality.

What’s a good Stat Value target for my DPS?#

For a general DPS character, aim for more than 25 CV and around 35 SV per piece. This is usually about 3 crit rolls on a single artifact and is very achievable over time. However, this changes based on your character and set—Natlan DPS units might prioritize ATK% and EM over high crit, while supports like Bennett prioritize Energy Recharge.

Which artifact domain should I farm first as a newer player?#

Farm Silken Moon first because it benefits both your main DPS and your supports simultaneously. After that, use the strongbox to convert trash artifacts into Noblesse Oblige and Viridescent Venerer, which are universally strong. Then move to Deepwood Memories for Dendro teams.

Is farming daily routes worth it without spending resin?#

Yes, absolutely. Daily routes yield up to 100,000 mora and thousands of artifact EXP per week by spending just an extra 5 minutes daily. This is especially valuable if you’re already using resin for character levels, talents, and weapons—the daily route method lets you save resin instead of wasting it only on artifact fodder.

How much of my artifact resin should go to my main DPS versus supports?#

Allocate 60–70% of your artifact resin to your main DPS first, since they’re your biggest damage source. The remaining 30–40% can go to support sets like Noblesse, Viridescent Venerer, and Deepwood Memories. A strong DPS carries teams more than perfect support artifacts.

What artifact sets should I build for long-term account flexibility?#

Build at least one or two usable sets of Tenacity of the Millelith (for HP-scaling supports) and Song of Days Past (as a backup if someone is already holding Noblesse). These may not seem critical now, but they’ll massively help your account long-term and keep your builds future-proof as new characters release.

Checklist#

• Learn the Crit Value (CV) formula: CV = crit damage + (crit rate × 2).
• Calculate Stat Value (SV) by adding CV to usable substats (treat 1 EM roll as ~5 SV).
• Set your target SV: aim for 25+ CV and 35+ SV on DPS artifacts (adjust based on character needs).
• Start farming the Silken Moon domain first to benefit both DPS and supports.
• Convert trash artifacts at the strongbox into Noblesse Oblige and Viridescent Venerer.
• Build at least two Noblesse sets (one HP%, one ATK%) and one Viridescent Venerer set.
• Farm the Deepwood Memories domain next for Dendro resistance shred and Gilded Dreams flexibility.
• If you own Furina, prioritize Marechaussee Hunter domain for best-in-slot DPS pieces.
• Craft Tenacity of the Millelith for HP-scaling supports and Song of Days Past as a backup support set.
• Allocate 60–70% of artifact resin to your main DPS, 30–40% to supports and utility sets.
• Run daily routes without resin to passively farm mora and artifact EXP (saves resin for character/weapon leveling).
• Review your farming priority every few weeks as your account grows and new characters release.
