Anime Zero Trials: How to Set Up an AFK Farm (Update 3)

Update 3 added the Trials mode to Anime Zero, a floor-based run that hands out room rewards and unlocks new units the deeper you push. Because each floor spawns enemies that walk straight into you, a single recorded macro can clear waves and advance floors on its own, letting you bank progress while you do something else.

Quick answer: Record a TinyTask macro on an early Trials floor that cycles your attacks plus skills 1, 2, 3 and Fuga and then clicks Next Floor. Set playback to 1x with Continuous Playback on, keep Shift Lock off, and start the loop.

What Trials added in Update 3

Trials is a progression ladder split into floors and rooms. Clearing far enough unlocks three units and three classes, so the farm doubles as a way to reach those milestones without manual play. The units unlock at fixed Trials thresholds.

Unit	Unlock requirement
Rin Okumura	Trials top 3
Astra Yao	Room 175
Frieren	Room 250

The classes sit behind higher clears. Silver Calamity unlocks after a solo clear of Room 125 or higher, Astral Blossom after a co-op clear of Room 150 or higher, and Void Arbiter after clearing Room 325.

Alongside Update 3, the game also shipped a guilds redesign, matchmaking, season rewards on leaderboards, 13 new accessories, 11 new emotes, and 15 character slots.

Best units for an AFK Trials farm

Your units need to be leveled enough to survive the floor you farm, and you want wide area damage so enemies die without manual aiming. Two picks cover the whole run between them.

Cursed King for waves

Cursed King is the unit to run through early and mid floors. His Fuga fire arrow and Shrine cover a large area, so looping those skills clears room after room of trash enemies on their own.

Shadow Monarch for bosses

Shadow Monarch handles boss waves and higher floors. His ultimate delivers heavy single-target burst, and the damage boosts gained through its evolution system let it end boss fights that wide AoE would stall on. Swap to it when a floor boss appears.

Pick a Trials floor and check its rewards

Open the Trials menu from the matchmaking area and look at the Room Rewards before you commit. Choose a floor your units can clear comfortably on repeat rather than the highest one you can barely survive, since the macro has no way to react if a wave outpaces your damage.

Configure TinyTask before recording

The farm uses TinyTask, a free macro recorder, to replay your inputs on a loop. Grab it from its official site, then set these values in its preferences before you touch the game.

Play Speed set to 1x so the replay matches real combat timing.
Continuous Playback checked so the macro repeats without stopping.
A recording hotkey you can reach easily (F8 works well).
A playback hotkey (Print Screen works well).

Turn Shift Lock off in Roblox before you record. Shift Lock or stray mouse movement shifts the camera angle during playback, which throws off your positioning and breaks the loop.

Record the Trials macro

Press your record hotkey, then run into the elevator and step onto the room’s center spawn circle. Everything from here is being captured, so move cleanly and keep the mouse still.

Cycle your area skills and basic attacks over and over. Spam skills 1, 2, 3 and Fuga together with basic swings so enemies that approach the spawn pad die to the repeated casts.

If the floor ends on a boss wave, swap to Shadow Monarch and fire its ultimate to burst the boss down. Skip this step on floors you clear purely with AoE.

Once the victory screen is displayed, hold off for a couple of seconds. Rooms don’t all load at the same pace, and that brief wait keeps your next click on the intended button.

Click Next Floor, let the new floor finish loading, then stop the recording. Start continuous playback and the macro runs the floor on repeat.

Keep the camera from drifting

If the loop starts missing enemies after a few floors, the camera has usually rotated. Re-record with Shift Lock off and avoid touching the mouse during capture, since the replay reproduces whatever camera angle you left it on. A clean recording that never moves the view holds its aim across repeated rooms.

Confirm the loop is working

You know the farm is running correctly when each room clears, the victory screen appears, and the character advances to the next floor on its own without you touching anything. Watch two or three full floor cycles before you walk away. If it clears rooms, auto-clicks the victory prompt, and loads into the next floor every time, the macro is stable and you can leave it idling to stack rewards and push toward the Trials unlocks.
