Vein Essences are an important material in Aniimo that can help you attract more Aniimo to specific areas. They are mainly used to nurture map regions, trigger a Wild Surge, and increase the spawn rate of Prismana Aniimo. In this guide, we’ll explain all the ways you can get Vein Essences and how to use them.
How To Get Vein Essences
Vein Essence is an epic rarity material. It is condensed Vein energy that can be absorbed by a Branch in Breezy Plains. Doing so helps attract Aniimo to the area.
You can purchase Vein Essences from the Stamp Shop for 50 Windborn Stamps each. You can earn Windborn Stamps by completing different activities, like progressing through the Companion Handbook or completing Daily Quests. Also, taking part in Stamp Rush and completing Seasonal Achievements can help you get Vein Essences.
Companion Handbook
F2P players can claim one Vein Essence once they hit levels 15, 55, and 60. But players who have purchased the Battle Pass will have a higher chance of obtaining Vein Essence if they have the Battle Pass. In this, once they hit the above levels, they can claim 3 Vein Essences instead of 1.
Elite Training Rewards
Vein Essences can also be earned by completing courses in Elite Training. Each objective gives you a different amount of Elite Training points based on its difficulty, so completing more challenging courses can help you earn more points.
Nurture Branch Rewards
You can get two Vein Essences by infusing energy into the Nurture Branch. To do this, you’ll need Lumin Amber, which can be found while exploring the open world.
Catch Completion Rewards
Another way to get Vein Essences is by reaching catch completion milestones in different areas. Keep catching Aniimo as you explore each region to claim these rewards.
Microtransaction Bundles
Vein Essences are also available through certain bundles that can be purchased using Lumin Crystals. However, these bundles have a weekly purchase limit, so you can only buy a limited number of them each week.
Mysterious Vendor
You might spot the Mysterious Vendor from time to time in Astra, and if you check their wares, you can find Vein Essence. This item spawns randomly in the shop, so you can’t always get it. But if you do find it, you need to spend 210,000 credits to purchase 1. The max cap for buying Vein Essence from the vendor is 2.
How To Use Vein Essence
Vein Essences are mainly used to nurture map regions. Before your Vein Essences are used, you get three free Nurtures, which recharge over time. Once those free uses are exhausted, the game will start using your Vein Essences. Vein Essences can also trigger a Wild Surge and increase the spawn rate of Prismana Aniimo in that area.
