Today I completed two daily quests that rewarded stygia. I think it was 50 each. Ostensibly you can also receive this from rare mobs throughout the maw (I haven't tested this) and even other types of mobs.

In an older build I was able to grind this relatively quickly from killing random mobs around the maw. Today I spent 20-30 minutes killing mobs and only received 8 off a single mob.

Stygia is reward from Daily Quests, World Quests and Rares in The Maw.

Stygia is a currency used to buy stuff from Ve'nari (46,41) in the maw

you get the stygia currency by finishing quests and dailies

Kommentar von KushoLion

Be warned, Blizz--in their infinite stupidity--made it entirely possible to lose all your stygia. You lose stygia every time you die, in a very Dark Souls/Bloodborne-esque way. If you die before making it back to your corpse to reclaim the stygia, that stygia is completely lost, and you then have a new batch of stygia to lose. If you end up dying too far away from a graveyard or in the river of souls that applies a major debuff, you can easily die repeatedly and lose all your stygia in the effort to reclaim it.

I don't know what Blizz was thinking when they implemented this currency, but there's a special place in the Maw for whoever thought this was a good idea.

Some things to know if you want to farm stygia.

This command will print your current jailer hate to the chat window.

/dump C_UIWidgetManager.GetDiscreteProgressStepsVisualizationInfo(2885).progressVal

5000 is maximum 5/5 hate and stygia drops and rep gains from rares will not occur (but you can continue to do daily quests to get quest progress at your own risk)

Some things I found while in the maw... You get jailer hate from regular enemies ONLY if you get the killing blow. That means you can farm unlimited stygia from regular enemies as long as someone other than you gets the killing blow. It does not matter if you originally tagged the enemy or if they did. By you, I mean your directly controlled character, or your pets, or any guardians you have.

I do not know if the KB rule applies if you are in a group.

The KB rule does not apply if you tag a daily rare/named NPC that gives reputation. If you tag it and it dies, you get significant amount of hate, even if you do not get the KB.

Daily quest objectives where you interact with an object do not give any hate UNTIL the objective completes. That means you can do 5/6 on a quest and not get any hate, but once you get 6/6, you will get the hate for it.

Daily quests with multible objectives will give hate on each separate objective completing. That means you can do 2/3 on 1 objective and 4/5 on the other objective and not get any hate. But if you do 3/3 or 5/5 on one objective, you will get hate. Completing the second objective will also give additional hate.

For those who don't know, if you Die in the Maw, you can still retrieve the lost Stygia by walking back to your corpse and looting it.

In some cases you'll die in far away (or difficult to reach) areas, possibly making you lose more Stygia in the process. So, if your class has any kind of stealth (Rogues, druids, Mages Hunters with Camouflage, it heals too) or Agro Reset (Rogues, Hunters, Mages) use them in the Maw, even if you have to talent to it (in the case of Hunters, as it even helps heal you up, specially after you got Tier 2 of the eye, making it quite impossible to stand still in place, for food, or you're not in BM with Spirit Beast).

For all else, Ve'nari actually sells, for Stygia, an item that makes you invisible and gives you a speed boost for a time. That, along with the teleport one (mandatory) should be in your inventories every time. In all cases, watch out for those mobs that have invisbility detection, like the floating eyes, elites and even the Outriders (those that when killed drop their mount for you to use).

The Maw s*cks, we all know, but Blizz did put in there things to tackle some of it's 'Annoyances'. Really considering spec swapping between MM<>BM/SV (at least as hunter) in there since BM/SV can deal more damage 'on the move'.

Just wished they swapped the Tier 2 Tower stuff with the last ones. Classes/specs that lose DPS with constant move suffer in there.

Kommentar von cgrizz

If you die in the Maw and don't want to run back for your stygia you can resurrect with it right below you if you happen to be near a large drop into the ether. Just jump - no parachute :) Since you're not landing anywhere when you die your corpse is right below you at the resurrection spawn point.

Best way to farm Stygia :

As a reminder on how Jailer Eye works, you will aggro the Jailer whenever you do activites in the Maw. You can accumulate a total of 5000 threat to the Jailer before reaching Tier5. Once at Tier5 you will slowly gain stacks, reducing healing recieved and at 10stack you can't get Stygia anymore for the rest of the day, reseting everyday whenever daily quest resets.

Daily quest can still award you Stygia even if you already have reached 10 stacks and you can complete quest inside the Maw at any time as well. So even if quests are one of the best sources of Stygia, you want to complete these quest after reaching 10stacks. You might want to pre-complete the quest before turning it to make it easier. Note however that the Threat to the Jailer when completing quests is given on quest completion rather than when you turn the quest. So if the quest ask you to kill 10 mobs, you want to kill 9 of theim and leave the quest until you reach Tier5 + 10stack and then finish the quest. You can do this with Daily quest and with Weekly quest as well.

This is Threat / Stygia value for all activities in the Maw. The lowest value is the best.

Soul Well : ~1 Th/S. this is by far the best value but you can complete this only once a day. Make sure you do !
The Hunt : ~3.33 Th/S. The Hunt is a very good source of Stygia as it gives you ~300 of it. However completing the Hunt generate a lot of Threat, I'll suggest you to try as much as possible to complete the Hunt when you are already close to Tier5
Rich Elethium Deposit : ~3 Th/S. This is the best repeatable activity you can do to get Stygia. They can give up to 17 Stygia per node and generate only 24 Threat. They are mostly rare so it might be a tought task to fill your entiere bar with this.
Stygian Cache : ~3.75 Th/S. This has one of the best value as well but it's also very difficult to farm theim efficiently. I'll suggest you to install Handynote : Shadowlands add-on, it will mark all of their possible spawn location on your map so you can adjust your pathing accordingly. Contain up to 50+ Stygia. (Min I saw is 38)
Wrath of the Jailer : ~5 Th/S. A good value for this one but you can complete it only once a week. As for The Hunt I'll suggest you to complete this one when already close to Tier 5 so you get an even better value out of it.
Saving Souls : 5 Th/S. Saving souls is also very good, it give 20 Stygia per soul for only 100 Threat but you can only save 10 of theim each week since they will stop awarding you Stygia after you completed the weekly quest.
Gathering : ~ 5 Th/S. Gathering in the Maw is surprisingly efficient for farming Stygia. Because Rich Elethium Deposit give so much Stygia and regular nodes / Nightshade can award 3 Stygia sometimes (most of the time it's 2)?
Elite Rare, Non-elite Rare, Special encounter : ~6 Th/S. These are the worst source of Stygia. Elite-Rare can be a little bit better than other encounter but that's marginal. As you can see tho the rare value of these encounter doesn't matter, so if you plan on filling your bar with this, don't bother chasing for Rare creature, you can just go for any special encounter you'll catch.
Trash mob farming : >6 Th / S. Trash mobs award between 0 and 2 stygia. It's the worst possible way of farming Stygia since they award very little Stygia and Threat. You should not be effraid of killing theim when they aggro tho since they still have the "default" Threat/Stygia value (which is 6). Note however that you need to land the killing blow to get threat to the Jailer. When you take this in consideration, you can litterally farm Stygia without generating Threat to the Jailer, as long as you make sure to never land the killing blow. Still a tough task tho.

Ressources :
_Handynote : Shadowlands : Is a very good add-on that will note on your maps locations of all rare encounter / stygian cache. I strongly recommend installing it. The add-on only show the encounters you didn't already completed this day so you can quickly see where to go at any moment.
_Eye of the Jailer Bar weak aura. This add a bar with numerical value to track better your Eye of the Jailer. So you can plan around doing activities such completing quests or The Hunt when almost reaching Tier5. I strongly recommend you using this if you want to min-max your Stygia farm.

Stygia Farming Tips

1. At the beginning of the week do not to "The hunt" on day one. Why? If you plan to farm all 40rep rares(most optimal) doing the hunt will max your jailer threat too quickly. Do the hunter on day 2 when you only have three daily quests to complete.

2. Doing your Daily Soul Well is A MUST. This gives 100-120 stygia at almost 1:1 ratio of threat, you can't beat this.

3. Min-Max; if your goal is to get the most stygia each day you want to pick up all the quests and complete them to 9/10 slain or 90% complete. This allows you to go back once you are 5/5jailer threat and QUICKLY complete them. If you are going to die drop combat, hearth, eat up and go back to finish it.

4. Pick an optimal starting quest/point. Perdition Hold is generally the best to complete first to 100%, mobs in this area can be the most troublesome. Beast Warrens has spread out mobs but fairly easy quests, collecting pages or exploding maw rats.

5. DO NOT collect 20/20 souls until AFTER you are 5/5 jailer threat. Collecting souls gives threat and massively reduces stygia farm after weekly reset. There are multiple souls outside of the base which are fairly safe to collect, running back and forth between 3-4 of the spawns. When you are low hp run back to base and into torghast area to eat back up to full hp.

6. Do no kill 100rep rares they give to much threat and not enough stygia. Never, ever, ever kill them.

My personal go-to route
Most Northern quests first, complete to 90% (do not kill rares in this area) > Perdition Hold second, killing the three 40rep rares in the area and completing the quests 100%. > Go south to the Beast Warrens, complete quests to 90% but do not finish, kill 3 rares then finish quest > Head Mid, you want to complete quests in this area to 90% and kill ALL 40rep rares(if you are close to 5/5 jailer threat at this point stop killing the rares). > IMPORTANT PART >
Go North, find and loot a bow from the ground(these hit for 30k~), now finish quest in the area. You should be 5/5 Jailer Threat from handing in this quest, it is a MUST. Quickly now - There are 3 rares in this area very close to each other. Kill Cyrixia first (use the bow), Malevolent Stygia second (there is a second bow just outside his cave), Run around and teleport up to Dartanos, at this point you will most likely be at 6 stacks and take very little healing. It is a race to kill him before you get to 10stacks and can not loot stygia anymore (or die). > Once this is complete depending your health and class/spec you will want to run around and 100% all remaining quests. This means you might have to hearth to safety. (During all of this you want to keep an eye out for the soul well and complete it, checking the three spawn points Handy notes shows you).

^This was done on a Night Elf, Vengence Demon Hunter with Twisting corridors mount.
Some days depending my willpower (not including The Hunt or Weekly reset quests) I could get 1200 - 1450 Stygia.
Hope this mess of a "guide" helps someone.

"The byproduct of the violent destruction of a Soul within the Maw."

Does anyone here still believes that The Jailer may has any noble intentions for the afterlife, like Sylvanas claimed in one cinematic?

Kommentar von Crash0ng

Before the 9.1 I had about 20k stygia. When I die in the Maw I always go back to pick it up.

But since the patch, I find that my stygia keeps going down for no reason? I should have about 25k but it's gone down to 19k!

Has anyone else experienced this? Is it me?

Cheers

Kommentar von six6

Since 9.1 the Venari dailies now grant reputation or gold instead of stygia, trying to figure out how I'm able to get stygia now.

OK assaults give 200 so thats 400 per week. If you want to buy the chisel and the 220 item with the domination slot, that's 4.5k stygia. 12 weeks!

Kommentar von Yagi

Whoever came up with the Stygia idea is why this game sucks. Losing stygia makes me not want to play.

Kommentar von madmurdock

So, I did some grinding to get the belt and the chisel and came to that conclusion:

- about 1000 through MAW mobs per day. You can solo farm MAW non elite rare mobs with 80k to 110k hps once a day. Just install something like tomcats or handynotes and it will show you a skull symbol on the map. If its done there is a green check. They have a fast spawn.
- daily quests. There are still some, which give Stygia. Some are given by Venari, some are given by NPCs on the map. This will also give you 400 or 600.
- 2 covernent assaults per week. They will grant you 200 each.
- the Torments assaults at currently even hour wintertime. E.g. 2 p.m. Also 200 iirc.
- grinding Rares in Korthia. This isnt really time saving, so do that only once a week for the weekly, if you want to get Stygia fast.
~~- the weekly quest in Korthia. Irrc also 200.~~ ok doesnt.
- the Vault gives you 1500 Stygia if you give up on the armor item and take the currency.
- boa stygia. these are rare.
- 250 stygia items through drops, mission table or chests. also rare.

So its still possible to get your stuff in under a week, but it will take you some time. No really easy way there as I can see.

Kommentar von alysterwolf

As of today (9.1.5) stygia from Soul Well is nerfed to 85. Did on one toon, will check again if it happens on other toon.

Kommentar von Jeolene

So, with the release of the new patch today, you are able to purchase Broker's items for your alts for a whopping 500 anima. Finally, something to spend it on and a way to gear alts quickly for emergency raids/dungeons when you need a quick gear-out.

Yet, when you get Waffen der Mittler, you will most likely get the wrong weapon for your spec.

They were so close to getting it right...

Ok, let me see if I got this correct.

We are now getting multiple THOUSANDS of research a day, but can't spend it on anything because most of us already acquired everything before the increase in acquisition rate and most of us also have our gear capped at 6/6 with sockets. There is no way to send this to alts and will most likely cap out.

Our anima reservoirs are overflowing because, again, we have bought everything we can with them (aside from sending it to alts).

Yet, if you want to buy catch-up gear for your alts, that costs Stygia... the one currency that you barely get a couple hundred of a day unless you are actively farming it on multiple alts and doing every single daily, but still only gives you enough (per day) to buy one thing for one character.

I know Blizz has become inept and out of touch with what's going on, but what's the point of alt catch-up gear if you can't afford it? I have 12 alts to get stuff for. Do I NEED to do it? No, but the point of the matter is for those that this is the only way they can get geared, then blizz has failed BIG TIME. There is no stygia drought, so it makes no sense why it needs to take so long to acquire it.

Kommentar von Gerotora

You can spend your excess stygia easily - since there is no real use for it anymore in 9.2 - at Death's Advance's quartermaster. She sells transmog sets and mounts, which are different for every covenant. You need Death's Advance revered and renown 60 to purchase the covenant items, but using Ehrenabzeichen der Mittler and speedrunning the covenant campaign for a few hours makes that very speedy endeavour.

Kommentar von d3xx

Is there a way to send Stygia to alts?

Kommentar von entropicdragon

Some other items that contain stygia are Kondensierte Stygia (BoP) and Stygiavorkommen (Bind on Account). Not sure why they're not listed here.
