    I think he wants to avoid this kind of situation.
    50k is a bit extreme, but if it's all outdated stuff then... why not?

    My issue is with doing Anima weapons. It's outdated, it's just for the glamour, but there's a stage that requires you to have 6k poetics.
    After sitting on a stack of 2k poetics for months because there's nothing else worth spending them on, it's incredibly frustrating to discover that you suddenly need to farm them. for weeks for one piece of glamour when you could have been gaining them all this time anyway.

    4 or 5k seems like a completely reasonable amount, that's not too 'hoardy'.

    I actually decide to buy items in Iddylshire for my Anima when I grab my WT for the week. You just buy multiples of an item you need (umbrite/clusters, aether oil) and just stock up for it in the future. Actually made my last anima and my current Zeta a breeze since I never had to worry about not having the materials I needed for it.

    Even past that you can still buy materials you can use for other things aside from relics so there's no good reason sitting on your poetics for that long nor need 4/5K of them.
