Currency Guide

## Introduction

**Coins**, often called **GP**, and **Platinum Tokens**, often called **Plats**, are the main forms of currency available on Runex. All other currency in Runex tends to be used in it's own location, be that a minigame or exclusive custom content such as Rune Coins. This page is intended to help new players understand all of the different currencies available and where they can be used and obtained.

## Regular Currency

"Regular" Currency in Runex would be defined as currencies that are obtainable in mass from multiple different activities.

This type of currency is often the most commonly used whether that be for trading, gambling, and staking with other players or purchasing items from NPCs. Because of this, you will usually encounter these currencies the most and should be the most familiar with them as a result.

### Runex Points

Runex Points are obtained from various different activities within Runex. This includes, but is definitely not limited to, killing monsters, killing bosses, completing task bottles, finishing achievements, Point Mystery Boxes, Chests, and Epic Bonus Chests.

Runex Points can be spent at the Runex Point Store, accessible via Mandrith at the ::shops teleport, on tons of useful items for your account. This includes Dwarf Multicannons (Regular, Gilded, and Crystal), the Rigour and Augury Prayer scrolls, various quality of life items, and even the full Void equipment set.

These perks range from simple things such as increasing the amount of gold bosses drop all the way up to the ability to unlocked instanced slayer and even drop rate increases.

## Special Currency

"Special" Currency in Runex would be defined as currencies that are more valuable and harder to come by.

This type of currency is often used in specific shops, such as Wanderer's Tokens at the Wandering Merchant, and are used to purchase some of the most powerful equipment and items in Runex. Majority, if not all, of these currencies would be considered mid-to-late game content and can be more difficult for beginners to understand fully because of it.

### Wanderer's Tokens

Wanderer's Tokens can be obtained by turning in many different, random items and gear you come across during your gameplay.

To do this you'll speak to the Wandering Merchant found just outside the ::shops teleport.

The Wandering Merchant is a weekly activity that requires you to sacrifice items in exchange for these Wanderer Tokens.

Some of the most powerful equipment in-game can be found within his store, but not without an often steep cost.

### Rune Diamonds

Rune Diamonds are a very rare fusion of currencies made up of 100x Rune Coins and 1x Mystery Shard per Diamond.

Rune Diamonds are used to purchase cosmetic upgrades to your account including custom yell colors, various overrides, and the Lucky Fairy Mini-Pet that provides +5% drop rate.

## Seasonal Currency

"Seasonal" Currency in Runex would be defined as currencies that are only obtainable during seasonal events.

Due to the frequency of seasonal events on Runex, I have decided not to include all of them here. There are dozens of seasonal currencies available on Runex and often times, they are simply named after the event itself such as Summer Tokens. If the seasonal currency is an older variant, this will normally be identified with an "(old)" tag or the year of the event itself, such as "Summer Tokens (2017)" or something similar.
