LOST ARK CURRENCY GUIDE
Lost Ark is a game that has taken the gaming industry by storm. It offers a wide range of customization options, quests, and currency options. It can be overwhelming trying to understand all the currencies and how they relate, what they do, and which ones you might be looking for. We have created a guide to help you understand Lost Ark.
SILVER COINS
What SILVER COINS are FOR?
You can use silver for many things. From crafting materials and repairs to quick travel and item upgrades and many more. Silver Coins will be the currency that you use most often. These coins are essential and you will almost certainly always want more. You will have millions later in the game, and that won’t be a problem.
Silver is Lost Ark’s main currency. These silver coins can be obtained by killing monsters and completing certain dungeons or quests. Because of the many uses and ways you can get silver, it is what I call the main currency for “gameplay”.
HOW TO GET SILVER COINS
There is no way to buy silver directly. It can also be difficult to grind for it. The easiest way to get silver is to simply play the game and do your daily quests. You will be able to access more silver the higher you go. As a guild member, you can purchase silver in the guild shop in exchange for Sylmael bloodstones.
GOLD COINS
Gold is the game’s trading currency. It is an extremely important currency and can be used to buy items on the Auction House. Think of it as your way to transact with other players and to interact economically.
GOLD HAS MANY USES
- It can be used to craft new items or research upgrades for your stronghold.
- Trade with other players
- You can use the Auction House to place a bid for Blue Crystals
Some players believe that gold is the most valuable currency. It is difficult to find gold, but the game keeps that in mind.
HOW TO GET GOLD COINS
The in-game shop allows you to purchase gold, which can cause some controversy in the community. You can also get gold by using your Epona batches or Island compass. This will alert you to any gold-rewarding events.
Weekly events, raids, and rapport quests will provide the majority of your gold. Although you can earn thousands of golds by completing several character rapport quests, the most rewarding part is Charisma. This is because it is impossible to complete them all before you reach the end of the game. This table shows the maximum amount of gold you can earn from each character.
Una’s tokens can also be used to buy Gold Coins. Una’s tokens are also listed further down on this list.
BLUE CRYSTALS
WHAT BLUE CRYSTALS ARE SUITABLE FOR?
These coins are unique in Lost Ark. These can be used to buy cosmetics, consumables and gold at the in-game shop.
HOW TO GET BLUE CRYSTALS
These items can be a bit controversial as they can only be purchased with real money, but are very difficult to find in-game. These items can be traded for gold in Auction house.
AUCTION HOUSE
The window at the auction house greets you as soon as you arrive. It offers little explanation. The tab at the top is divided into two tabs. The first one is “Item trade”. The second tab is called “Transaction history”, however that is fairly self-explanatory so I’ll concentrate on the Item trading.
You’ll want to first check out the sale/buy offer section of the action house. The ” Crystal sale” offers are located in the first box to the left. These are crystals currently being offered by other players. They also indicate the current rate at which they are being sold. This chart will display the five lowest prices at which you can buy crystals. You may not see the value in the higher-priced crystals or pools, but you should consider the box “Buying Crystals”, which is right below the one you are looking at. You will also find offers that work the other way. Here, players can offer to buy 100 blue-colored crystals for X amount. If someone has more gold than blue crystals they can view your offer and possibly sell it for you. Or you can choose not to. If so, the offer would be void.
What ROYAL CRYSTALS DO YOU HAVE?
Royal Crystals are considered the most valuable of all currencies in that they can be used to purchase exclusive or semi-exclusive items, such as skins or pets.
HOW TO GET ROYAL CRYSTALS
Money. This is the premium currency in the game. It can only be acquired by real money. You will receive a certain amount of Crystals for any amount you choose to transact.
SYLMAEL BLOODSTONES
WHAT ARE THE SYLMAEL BLOODTONES FOR?
You can exchange them for many products. They can be spent in a guild-only shop at Sylmael bloodstone exchange NPC. These are essential for your guild to use in guild research. The guild must research the guild store in order to purchase the highest tier items. How can you find them exactly?
