Coins

Coins are a permanent game currency, most commonly used for purchasing and crafting various items throughout the game.

Prior to the site re-design in October 2022, coins were a part of the travel system of the game. When moving from one region to another, Dust Warriors could chose to travel the long way, meaning they would be unable to access the wilderness, quests, or markets for a short time while in transit. Alternatively, they could chose to pay a number of coins and travel between regions instantly. The further apart the regions, the longer the travel duration and higher the cost in coins. Travel between areas within a region was free and instantaneous.

## Sources

### Chests

Coins can be found in all chests in varying amounts, depending on the chest and Luck.

### Dropped by

Coins are one of the most common drops in the game, and are dropped by an increasing number of creatures.

They are especially common in new events, permanent areas introduced from 2022 onwards, and older areas which have been re-balanced.
