Blizzard Entertainment trimmed down the number of currencies in World of Warcraft Dragonflight Patch 10.2, but you still have currencies like Dream Infusion that will, if you play your cards right, get you a mount.

Dream Infusion is a special currency you’ll gather in the Emerald Dream which you’ll use to purchase mounts and pets from Elianna, an NPC in the zone. But, before you can start collecting Dream Infusions and creatures of the Emerald Dream, there are a couple of requirements you need to meet first.

So, here’s how you can get Dream Infusion in Dragonflight.

Dream Infusion in WoW Dragonflight, explained

Dream Infusion is a special feature in the Emerald Dream where Elianna allows you to purchase mounts and pets for the Dream Infusion currency. But you’ll need to first unlock the Dream Warden reputation and reach level five Renown with this faction. The feature that unlocks Dream Infused pets and mounts is called In Touch With Nature. By doing this, you’ll unlock this feature on your alts too.

You can start gathering Dream Infusions after you complete the Mean Green Infusion Machine and  Green Dream Team quests from Elianna. 

After you complete these quests you’ll get a Dream Energy bar underneath Elliana’s plate name that you’ll need to fill up to get your next Dream Infusion. Normally, this bar will be under Elliana, but you can track it anywhere in the world with this WeakAura

To get one Dream Infusion, you need to unlock the Dream Infusion system by reaching level five Renown with the Dream Wardens, completing the above-mentioned quests, and collecting 7000 Dream Energy. Once you fill-up the bar, you’ll have to complete a daily quest, Dream Infusion. 

You will also get one Dream Infusion by reaching level 18 Renown with the Dream Wardens for free. 

It’s important to note you can only hold one Dream Infusion in your inventory and you can’t get the next one until you spend it.

There’s a wide variety of ways that can get you Dream Energy for Dream Infusions. Dream Energy won’t be shared among your characters, and each one will have to grind separately.

The best ways to farm Dream Energy were figured out by avid PTR tester, Lazy. So, here are all the ways you can get Dream Energy:
