In World of Warcraft you now receive 1,600 Gold “along the way” every week. A quest reward has been significantly improved.
With the start of this WoW week (03/17/2021), there is a new method to earn a little extra Gold. A quest that was essentially mandatory every week has now become optional. However, it gives a nice chunk of Gold that you can take with you almost effortlessly.
Which quest is it? It is the weekly quest of your Covenant, where you need to collect 1,000 Anima. Previously, this quest granted a renown level every week and was therefore important for character progression. Now, at Renown level 40, that is no longer the case, and the quest is irrelevant for progression. To ensure players still complete this mission, Blizzard has adjusted the quest reward. Anyone completing the weekly quest now receives 1,600 Gold.
Does this apply to all players? No, only to players who have already reached Renown level 40. Those who still need to catch up – especially on an alt character – will continue to receive a renown level as a reward. Only when the maximum renown level is reached will the Gold reward from the quest be given in the following week.
Is it worth it? That is something everyone must decide for themselves. Generally, the effort of 1,000 Anima for 1,600 Gold is quite high. However, if you are already collecting your 1,000 Anima in the week – whether through world quests, dungeons, or raids – you should simply accept the mission and complete it on the side. Because who would leave 1,600 Gold lying around that you can simply get for free?
What other ways are there to earn Gold? Currently, there are a number of ways to earn Gold. Just completing world quests and daily calling quests already brings in a nice sum. However, there are also methods where players can allegedly earn up to 47,000 Gold per hour – it’s worth a try.
Are you taking the bonus Gold with you? Or will you forget the quest anyway now that it’s not mandatory anymore?
