Coin farming
Anime Zero Coin Farming: Story Runs and Raid Benchmarks
Start with the Story stage you can finish comfortably. Run it a few times and compare Coins per minute before moving up a difficulty or switching to Raids. The highest advertised payout can be slower once you count wipes, queues, and matchmaking.

Pick a route for your current progression
- Early Story: choose an unlocked stage on Easy or Normal and finish the run. Use your rewards to improve the build until you can repeat it without losing time to wipes.
- Harder Story: compare a stage you know on the next difficulty. Check the reward preview and choose a stage that also gives a material you need.
- Raids: once unlocked, try a clear with a team you can assemble reliably. Count setup time and look for any remaining run limit in the lobby before committing your session.
- Infinite: pick a reachable stopping point and measure the full attempt. Compare the Coins you actually collect with the same amount of time spent in Story.
Measure your own Coins per minute
For example, three attempts earning a combined 45,000 Coins in nine minutes produce 5,000 Coins per minute. Use that method with your own queue and clear times.
- Keep your loadout and bonuses the same. Start timing when you queue and stop when you are ready to queue again.
- Write down the Coins shown on the result screen. Keep one-time quests and code rewards out of the comparison. Count time spent on failed runs as well.
- After three attempts, divide total Coins earned by the total minutes spent. Use the same method for a second route and pick the one that pays more for your time.
Two recorded payouts to use as reference points
Check the reward preview and settlement in your current build. Rank, bonuses, clear time, and update changes can affect the value of either route.

|---|---|---|
| West City Act 1 Story, Nightmare · October 27, 2026 · Update 5 | About 20,200 Coins and 403 Gems in a 2:55 clear | One recorded clear. That is about 6,900 Coins per combat minute, before lobby or loading time. |
