If you aren’t familiar with this type of game, you might be confused while playing. Progression can be quite a grind so you should know what to do from the start. You can do so with our complete beginner’s guide for Anime Shadow.
How to Redeem Codes in Anime Shadow
The first thing you should do when you enter Anime Shadow is redeem all active codes. These give you various rewards which make your life a little easier, especially if you are F2P and are just starting the game.
To redeem a code, click on the hamburger button in the left corner, then click on the ABX button. This will open the Enter Code menu where you can copy and paste all Anime Shadow codes.
How to complete Quests in Anime Shadow
Quests are available on every world and you should complete them. To activate a Quest, you have to approach the EximiusX NPC. He will give you multiple quests which you can complete on each world.
Once you have completed all quests on a map, you will get both a Badge and a Mount. Mounts are useful for moving around each island while Badges give you permanent Stat boosts.
On the first world (Leaf Village), you can also interact with the EximiusX Ticket quest NPC. The quest just requires you to play the game, so it’s pretty simple and you get some pretty great rewards. Spending time playing the game also gets you various achievements with stat boosts.
If you are P2W, then you can use these tickets on the special ticket banners with exclusive units. You can also pull on these banners if you are F2P, but I suggest using your tickets at the start in the shop.
Here, you can grab various gamepasses to help you progress through the game. I suggest grabbing the which increases the speed
Anime Shadow Pet Banner Guide
You can Roll for Pets on any world but keep in mind that each world has its own banners. Basically, pity doesn’t carry over from world to world. If you want to get a Mythic pity (which I suggest you do since the chances of getting a Mythic unit are miniscule), then focus on just one world first.
The easiest grind, especially if you have unlocked at least the first three worlds is the second world (Piece Town). Zore is also a great Legendary to have and build your team around. The more you pull on the banner means the more chances you can get him as well.
Anime Shadow Trials Farming Guide
Trials are available on the first map Leaf Village. You can get to them by entering the tunnel right behind the Star banners. However, you can’t always join a Trial. They open every half an hour and you have one minute to join. If you don’t make it in that one minute, you will have to wait for another half an hour again.
I would wait until you clear the first world and get some good units from the second world before farming the Trials. Best case scenario is to have multiple people already with you in Trial. You can choose to solo it, but then you probably won’t make it very far.
Clearing as many rooms as possible isn’t just for bragging and glory purposes. You can also get achievements by reaching specific rooms (and get permanent stat increases), as well as more Coins and Passive Capsules.
How to get Passives in Anime Shadow
Passive Capsules are used to reroll Passives on units and you can do this by going to the second world (Piece Town). When you reach the Passive machine, just select the unit whose Passive you want to change and keep rolling.
There are plenty of them to choose from, but if you aren’t satisfied with your Passive, then you’ll have to grind some more Passive Capsules at the Trials (which is why it’s so important to farm them).
How to feed Pets in Anime Shadow
While you might be tempting to sell them and get a few Coins, selling Pets isn’t really the best choice. Instead what you should do is Feed your most powerful Pets (the ones you plan on keeping in your team) with the lower level units and the ones you don’t want to use.
To do this, go to the Pets tab, click on the unit whose level you want to increase, then click on Feed. This will now allow you to select all the Pets for food. Higher level and rarity Pets give more EXP, so don’t hesitate to cook them into some nice food for your team Pets either (if you know you won’t use them later).
Just keep in mind, when feeding Pets, to lock the units you want to build and have on your team. I have made the mistake on clicking the trash can button and deleting my most powerful unit. I don’t know what I expected to happen when I pressed a universally recognizable delete button, but I guess not that. Learn from my mistakes and keep your Pets safe.
