Class Coins

A reward currency with one coin per class - dropped by the monsters you kill, scaling with how tough they are.

Overview

Class Coins are a reward currency you collect by fighting. They are not gold and they are not anything you buy with gold - they are their own thing, one of the reward currencies each system on the shard uses to hand out its own rewards.

What makes them distinct is that there is a coin for every class. Each class has its own coin, named and coloured to match, plus a universal coin called the Prism Coin. You bank them up and spend them on class rewards.

A Coin for Every Class

There is a Class Coin for every class:

Every coin shares the same shape but wears its class's guild colour, so a stack is easy to read at a glance. See Classes for what each path plays like. The Artisan's Guild Crest is the one coin that also turns up from crafting and gathering, not just kills, and anyone can find one.

How You Earn Them

Class Coins drop from monsters when they die. This is a separate roll from the gold and gear on the corpse - the coin arrives on its own track, so a good kill can pay you gold, loot, and a coin. The catch is that the drop chance is tied to how dangerous the monster was: weak creatures rarely cough one up, while the big, high-health monsters drop them reliably.

That means the way to farm coins is the same as the way to farm good loot - fight up the difficulty ladder. The tougher the target, the better the odds.

Drop Tiers

Like the rest of the loot system, coin chance is driven by a monster's maximum hit points, sorted into named tiers. The more health a creature has, the higher its tier and the better your coin odds - at the top tiers a coin is close to guaranteed.

Exact per-tier percentages and what each coin buys are set in-game and are the numbers to confirm at a live vendor - this page describes how coins drop and scale, not a fixed rate card.

The Prism Coin

Alongside the class coins there is the Prism Coin, a universal coin that isn't tied to any single class. Treat it as the rarer, cross-class variant that sits at the top of your coin collection.

Storing Coins

Coins stack, and there is a dedicated Class Coin Tome that holds the full set - all the class coins plus the Prism Coin - in one tidy book so they aren't cluttering your pack. If you are collecting seriously, the tome is the clean way to keep them.
