Clearing Glas Ghaibhleann on Entry pays 10 Expedition Proofs, and the clear reward is given once a week.

A Hard clear pays 20, but Entry, Hard and Very Hard share one weekly reward counter (reset Monday 06:00). Clearing an easier difficulty first burns the week, so always attempt the hardest one you can clear first.

Glas Ghaibhleann Very Hard opens 2026-10-05 06:00 and a clear pays 30, on the same weekly reward counter as Entry and Hard. The same reward also gives 300,000 gold, 500 rune shards, 4 runes (★3-★6), 9 Abyss Elite/Epic Mystic Dice (2232) and 1 weapon-only enchant scroll. Unlock it through Evan during the quest "Toward That Sea"; the party has 6 revives in total, and solo mode is available.

Hard pays 20 a week: exactly the epic catalyst (10) plus two enhancement catalysts (10). From 5 Oct Very Hard pays 30: the same two buys with 10 left over, so the 120-token weapon enchant box is 12 weeks of that surplus, or 4 weeks if every token goes to it. Rune boxes take 2.5-3.5 weeks of saving.

Duncan at the chief's house in Tir Chonaill runs the exchange. All four storefronts are the same shop and the weekly caps are shared, not per NPC. TW official notices confirm Duncan, Evan and Keara as the exchange NPCs; KR adds Craig in Emain Macha and the field-spawn Evan.

Evan at the Dunbarton town office (the Adventurers' Guild support centre on KR) sells from the same shop. The TW community finds Evan the most convenient stop.

Keara at the Colhen mercenary office (the inn on KR) sells from the same shop.

After a field-boss fight, Evan deploys next to the boss and opens the same exchange, so there is no town trip.

Added on 9/9: the "ownerless" Summoning Barrier loot and Black Hole loot, each giving the same reward as the Cloud Wasteland Hard Summoning Barrier / Black Hole loot. The TW token price is not published; KR sells them for 100 and 80.

Three weekly-first boss kills at 720 each come to 2,160 tokens a week. At TW prices (Bahamut 1464): enhancement catalyst 300 + elite alchemy catalyst 400 + 200 rune shards (400) + big meat 100 = 1,200, leaving ~960 for curse-removal potions and undying powder. Three bosses a week buys out everything except the two trap boxes.

Basis: TW prices (baha-1464): 強化再燃燒催化劑 300 + 菁英鍊金術再燃燒催化劑 400 + 200 shards (400 tokens) + 大塊肉 100 = 1,200, leaving ~960 for 解除詛咒藥水 / 不死粉末. Three bosses a week max out everything except the two trap boxes

Avoid these on TW: opening them consumes your weekly barrier/hole attempt counter. On KR after S2 the same boxes cost 100 and 80 tokens and count as good buys, because S2 token income is high enough that buying out of chores makes sense; that logic does not carry over to pre-S2 TW.

The weekly-first kill of a field boss pays 720 (TW community figure). Officially, this payout is capped at 3 per week, counted across all bosses, not per boss.

Every repeat kill pays 10 as the basic reward, with no limit. Bosses spawn daily at 12:00 / 18:00 / 20:00 / 22:00, stay up 30 minutes and can be entered 10 minutes early; Krama in the Frost Gorge needs the Giant Yeti killed first.

At Molly, 100 Abyss Fossils convert into 60 Red Abyss Fossils. The shop exists on TW, but this rate was read from Korean sources.

Molly's rune wish-jars, in priority order: accessory (the core rune) > weapon > armour. In KR's current Runda season the accessory jar is both the cheapest (600 vs 900) and the only true selector. The shop exists on TW; the prices are from Korean sources.

The weekly loot is sized by the best difficulty you cleared that week. In KR S1 that came to ≈15 pouches a week account-wide, alts included. Loot settles Monday 06:00 and you cannot re-enter the abyss until you claim it, so claim it first.

If you skipped the abyss last week or cleared below your record, the weekly payout is upgraded automatically and these tokens are consumed, one dungeon's worth per upgrade; no tokens means no upgrade. They are not consumed if your record is Very Hard or above, and upgrades run on the highest-value dungeon first.

Spent at the inn NPCs' "shop for kind adventurers": Piaras in Tir Chonaill, Flora in Dunbarton, Tieve in Colhen, and Jennifer's tavern in Bangor (KR also has Auguster in Emain Macha). The special-sale ladder is shared across towns, tracked per character, and never resets. TW official: Heart Tokens are character-bound, not shared across the server, and cannot be spent at the dungeon Cat Merchant.

Basis: TW official: 愛心幣 is CHARACTER-BOUND, not shared across the server, and cannot be spent at the DUNGEON cat merchant. TW counters: 皮爾斯 / 芙蘿拉 (baha-1464), 珍妮佛's 酒館 in 班克爾 (baha-2836)

Rungs after the dice: excellent recovery potion x5 (80), spirit traces x50 (60-80), holy water x10 (60), rune shards x20 (80), epic alchemy reburn catalyst fragments x40 (160), rune shards x50 (120), an abyss fossil pouch (180), gold ingot bundles x25 (150), enhancement reburn catalyst (300, cumulative 4,100). The ladder runs to a cumulative 4,100, but KR players say that once you have the dice there is not much worth buying. The shop exists on TW; prices are from Korean sources.

Malcolm in Tir Chonaill sells 11 kinds of workbench parts at 2 Heart Tokens each. The shop exists on TW; the price is from Korean sources.

Conor in Colhen sells 11 kinds of workbench parts at 5 Heart Tokens each, pricier than Malcolm in Tir Chonaill. The shop exists on TW; the price is from Korean sources.

Taking an NPC companion into deep dungeons and the abyss costs Heart Tokens. TW official notices confirm the fee exists but not its size, so budget for it before spending on the ladder.

Part-time jobs, quests and achievements are the main tap for Heart Tokens, so keep up with your part-time jobs every day.

Three daily barter taps, do them all: Cat Merchant, 1 squeeze snack → 1 token (3 a day); Walter, 5 true-love fish → 1 (2 a day); Conor, 5 lantern anglerfish → 1 (3 a day on TW, 5 on KR).

Each repeat abyss clear pays 1-2, and on KR even a failed field-boss attempt pays 3. The community puts the weekly ceiling at ≈170 tokens.

The Cat Merchant's bundle shop sells fish for the collection at 5,000-27,000 Nyang Tokens depending on species, 10 a week in total across all fish. Sea bass (20,000) is the input to KR's best barter, Edern's silver alloy ingot x10 weekly. The shop exists on TW; prices are from Korean sources.

The bundle shop sells guild-ship materials: thick cloth x3, tar x5 / glue x5, rope x3 and sturdy rope x3, at 60k-480k Nyang Tokens, 3 a week per server for each. Sturdy rope is the worst guild-ship bottleneck and this is one of the few taps, so buy it when you can. The shop exists on TW; prices are from Korean sources.

Bundle-shop cosmetics: cute cat ears, the lumberjack set, the sprout king-potato hat, the picnic set and an elaborate doll display decor box, at 4M / 8M Nyang Tokens, 1 a week each. Only worth it with jackpot money. The shop exists on TW; prices are from Korean sources.

The Cat Merchant shows 7, you pick 5 and pay in gold. The thief cats are Boss Cat Zorro, Fist King Rust, Advisor Silver and little Patch, and 2 or more of the same cat pays a bounty. The jackpot is Zorro x3 = 7,770,000 Nyang Tokens; Patch x3 = 110,000. The full combo table exists only as screenshots. The Cat Merchant is on TW; the figures are from Korean sources.

Alts must farm their own tokens. Costumes bought here cannot be promoted, so rare-grade ones can never be dyed. Based on Korean sources.

Sources are daily guild attendance, weekly guild quests (reset Monday 06:00), guild-ship material deliveries and point donations; delivery earnings cap at 30,000 per character. Coins are kept if you leave or rejoin a guild, and all characters on a server share one guild.

Aranwen in Dunbarton trades Class Master Medals for class emblems. Only the first purchase costs anything; re-buying is free afterwards and your runes are preserved. The price is unconfirmed; the free re-buy is the part that matters.

Earned from the "Weekly Erinn Journey!" event and the stamina top-up missions: 400 silver coins → 1 token, 500 silver coins → 1 token box. Caps are for the whole event, per server. The takeaway: surplus silver coins can be turned into event tokens. Figures are from Korean sources.

Qualifying products pay back 10% of their M-cash price, e.g. 3,980 M-cash → 398 points. The purchase popup must say it accrues shop points; if it doesn't, you get zero, so check before buying. A KR community claim of "1% of cash spent" conflicts with the observed 10% on packages; 10% is what TW's own notices show.

Cash shop → item shop → deka tab. The TW community recommends spending deka on tribute and silver-coin top-ups; the exact deka prices are not in any notice.

Unspent stamps convert 1-for-1 into a [100 gold box] when the event ends, while a stamp spent on gold ingot bundles is worth 400 gold. Hoarding destroys 75% of the value, so always empty the shop before the event closes.

You can earn 120 a day, shared across the server, resetting at 05:00 (not 06:00). Both TW events used 120 a day; the 05:00-vs-06:00 mismatch on the beach event was an acknowledged bug, compensated with 240 stamps.

Earned from dungeon and hunting-ground clears, part-time jobs, quests, NPC sales, gold ingot bundles (1 = 2,000 gold) and alchemising unprocessed gold ore; KR reference figures: a part-time job pays 1,900 gold (≈2x with membership, ≈200k a week) and steady KR endgame income is ≈2.0-2.5M a week, while the hold cap is not published. It goes on engraving enhancement (110k-2.64M per attempt from +11 to +20), skill modification (2,500/5,000/10,000 per try), alchemy fees, repairs, cooking materials, the gem box (40,000 each, 10 a day), the Cat Merchant gacha and holy water (1,500 each). Gold cannot be traded between players; the Exchange runs on deka only.

Alchemise unprocessed deka ore via Alchemy → Ore Alchemy; KR also gives it from weekly missions (≈93 a week free), Exchange sales and the tutorial play tips. 1 unprocessed deka ore = 10 deka, triple-checked (a KR player turned 2,300 ore into 23,000 deka, every TW and KR weekly/monthly package holds exactly its M-cash price ÷ 10 in ore, and a KR pricing breakdown lands on the same chain); the hold cap is not published. It is the only currency on the Exchange, and the deka tab also sells a 2,000-deka rune package (5 per character per week), a 100-deka name-change ticket and demon tribute / silver coin top-ups; deka is shared account-wide per server but cannot be handed to another player directly.

Small silver coin boxes (1 each) come from packages and memberships, and each sub-membership grants 5/5/10 a day, 20 a day on the full one. They pay dungeon and hunting-ground entry (a normal KR dungeon costs 10), double drop doubles both cost and reward, leaving immediately refunds everything and leaving after progress refunds part, hunting grounds refund per side objective, and weekday dungeons cost nothing; silver cannot be traded or put in storage.

They come from the weekly Abyss loot, sized by the highest difficulty you cleared that week; the KR S1 figure is ≈15 pouches a week across the whole account, alts included. Trade them at Molly's relic exchange at the Abyss entrance for rune selector boxes, wish jars and star seal boxes. The fossils cannot be traded, though the star seal box can move through shared storage; each character earns its own, but the cap is account-wide.

It is the single most-cited must-do in both TW and KR, and the payoff is time, since processing a special steel ingot yourself is a ~10 h craft. The first two steps are per character, so alts multiply them; the last step is account-wide, so run it on your main only.

Nerys copper ore → fine leather (x10), Tracy logs → leather (x10), Tracy 10 logs → fine leather (x10) and Alvin stir-fried vegetables → 4 fine timber (x2), paid with gathered ore, logs and one cooked dish. That is roughly 20 fine leather, 10 leather and 8 fine timber per character per day with zero processing time. KR rates Alvin's stir-fry trade as a top-priority must-do.

Basis: inven-6366-185 + baha-doc-barter

Lassar, twice a day (apple juice, alchemy scraps x3), gives Advanced catalysts, which you then combine 15→1 into Rare; Stewart turns alchemy scraps into 25 elemental crystals a day across 5 elements. The cost is 2 apple juices plus ~28 alchemy scraps. It is the only free alchemy-catalyst source in the game, and the crystals gate cross-type gem fusion into star prisms, KR's top free combat-power route.

5 empty bottles → 10 milk → Caitin whole-wheat bread x3 → Endelyon (10 bread → 10 holy water) and Meven (1 → 1), with only gathering as input. Otherwise holy water is 1,500 gold each and capped at 5 a week server-shared, so this loop dwarfs the vendor. The Endelyon and Meven trades are account-scoped (1 per daily reset shared across all your characters), so do not plan around alts here.

Kill 3 different field bosses each week for the weekly-first payout (spawns at 12:00 / 18:00 / 20:00 / 22:00), then empty the shop every week. At Taiwan prices (Bahamut 1464): 3 x 720 = 2,160 tokens a week against 300 for the enhancement reignition catalyst, 400 for the elite alchemy catalyst, 400 for 200 rune shards and 100 for big meat, 1,200 in total, leaving ~960 for curse-removal potions and undying powder. The Distant Star Seal (200) left the shop at the 9/9 maintenance (update log 3541097); a seal already in a slot is a permanent upgrade that survives gear changes, and duplicates sell to the vendor for 50,000 gold.

You get 1 clear reward a week, so always attempt the hardest difficulty you can clear and never Introductory first. Introductory pays 10, Hard 20 and, from 2026-10-05, Very Hard 30; all three share one reward counter, so clearing an easier one first throws the difference away. 20 tokens buys the epic alchemy catalyst (10) plus two enhancement catalysts (10), exactly one week's budget; 30 leaves 10 banked.

Hit the 120-a-day cap and spend every stamp before the event closes. Unspent stamps turn into 100 gold each, while spent on gold ingot bundles they are worth 400 gold each, so hoarding destroys 75% of the value. The catalysts in the current Night Market shop are otherwise cash-only.

Earn deka by selling on the Exchange, then buy the raid engraving-enhancement support package: a cash-tier growth package priced in an earnable currency, capped per character, and the free player's escape hatch. KR's proven deka engines are ingot arbitrage (≈3,000 deka a week from the steel ingot chain across alts), crafting margin (armour pieces at ~75 deka net each) and barrier epic mystic-dice keys (4,000+ deka each, with a separate key cap per alt).

Push your cumulative spend to 1,140 and buy the elite mystic dice x3 for 200; that is ≈1,340 heart tokens in total, ≈8 weeks at the community's ≈170-a-week ceiling, and it is three dice, not one, each guaranteed Elite minimum with 4 rarity-upgrade rolls. It is the second of KR's five commandments for free and light spenders; the ladder is per character and never resets, and the bags on the way (tools 40 / fashion 40 / adventure 50 / designer 100) fix the early weight wall, while TW bag prices match KR exactly, so the whole ladder is very likely live on Taiwan. Farm heart tokens from part-time jobs, the three daily barter trades and Abyss repeats.

The inn shop sells holy water at 10 heart tokens with a 20-a-week server cap, while the gold vendor charges 1,500 gold with a 5-a-week server cap. It is cheaper and more plentiful than gold, and combined with the Caitin → Endelyon/Meven bread loop it removes holy water as a constraint entirely.

Buy in this order: the elite alchemy reignition catalyst (2,000, 1 a week), then the rare one (600, 3 a week), then rune shards x10 (200, 10 a week), funded by guild attendance and weekly guild quests. Guild coins have almost no other use and the shop caps are per server per week, so a guild slot is worth ~1,800-4,000 coins of catalysts weekly for zero gameplay cost.

① Cross-type gem fusion into star prisms; ② heart tokens into elite mystic dice; ③ upgrade runes to Elite (purple) to unlock their unique effects; ④ use performance transfer to carry your enhancement and engraving onto new white-base gear, so the investment is portable and never lost; ⑤ use star seals immediately, since they are slot-bound and survive gear changes. KR adds: put your one guaranteed legendary rune on the emblem, not the weapon, because emblem runes have effectively no other source. All of this still applies on Taiwan.

Free players can clear all content: the design is low-barrier, and KR consensus is that the gap shows up in rankings and DPS meters, not in clear gates.

Small real-money buys that refund about 1,210 M-cash. Buy them before the membership and the membership ends up costing only about 1,000 KRW extra.

Basis: inven-6366/91, ruliweb-86848/27

About 20,000 KRW for gold, modification tickets, enhancement materials, Crude Star Prisms and more; the Korean community values it at over 100,000 KRW. Second buy: essential for light spenders, and worth a look even if you are close to free-to-play.

A small purchase that pays out attendance rewards. Third buy, a cheap filler.

Basis: inven-6366/91

29,000 KRW, up to 3 a month, worth about 34,900 deka in catalysts for enhancing +13 to +15. The most efficient way to put money into enhancement and a whale staple; the marginal cost is about 30k KRW per +1% power from +13 to +14, and about 50k from +14 to +15.

Basis: fmkorea via search, vortex-519254

3,980 M-cash each for a dyeable elite outfit, a mount, a title and an accessory; the 7th purchase adds a Legendary Accessory Rune Box (about 280,000 KRW in total). Commit to exactly one or all seven, never three to five.

Basis: inven-6366/91, dc-126777

Mid-priced, with pet tickets and more. Optional; if you want it, buy it after finishing the missions, not before.

Basis: dc-126777, dc-48852

About 20,000 KRW per draw on average for outfits with set effects, with pity rewards at 50 and 100 opens. Whale-only; skip it if you care about performance.

Basis: dc-126777, odds.json

Expensive. Epic pets carry stats; there is a 200-pull pity, but a legendary is not guaranteed and many players report feeling burned. Whale-only, and the main driver of the gap between free and paying players.

Flagged as poor value by the Korean community: packages built around epic alchemy catalysts or reignition catalysts, class packages (dungeons give free equivalents), and bulk-buying rune fragments on the exchange.

Basis: vortex-519254, dc-126777

Korean community consensus: 20,000 KRW = starter packages + membership; 50,000 KRW = add the Adventurer Pass; 100,000 KRW = add the level-up package; 200,000+ KRW = monthly and weekly packages.

Success rates run 15/10/7/5/3/1/1/1/1/1%; shard cost rises from 344 to 8,251 and gold from 110k to 2.64M per try; pity triggers at 7/10/14/20/33 tries, then 100 for each of the last five steps. From +15 a catalyst adds +1% per try, and a failure never destroys the item. These are the official in-game disclosures, relayed by the community with three sources agreeing exactly.

Success is about 100%. Exact values exist only in the in-game odds screen; they are not published anywhere on the web (checked).

★0→1 is 90%, then 85, 80, 50 and 40%, and ★5→6 is 10%, as displayed in game. The last step is only 10%, so stock materials before you push it.

Three runes of the same grade fuse into one of the next grade; a failure consumes two (the rune in slot 1 is kept), a catalyst retries once automatically on failure, and a success has a 10% great-success chance for double output. S1 runes range from 2-star Advanced to 8-star Mythic. Per-grade rates are not published on the web (in game only); the mechanics are confirmed by several sources.

Any three of ruby, topaz, sapphire, amethyst and emerald make a Triple Quartz; diamond plus obsidian make a Darklight; Triple Quartz plus Darklight make a Star Prism. Three Crude make a Crude S, and three S make an Epic. It is recipe-based with no published failure rate; it appears deterministic, but that is unconfirmed.

It can trigger at 'a certain chance' on rune engraving or performance injection, and on enhancement failures from +4 or +5 (sources conflict); the rate is unpublished. Clear it with a curse-removal potion, at a blacksmith, or with any successful enhancement.

Barter for it with Nerys in Dunbarton instead of processing it yourself: processing takes 10 hours per craft. The barter has a daily cap per character.

Engraving enhancement (110k to 2.64M per try at +11 to +20), skill modification (2,500/5,000/10,000 gold per try, about 200k-400k per piece to reach your target), rune promotion and fusion fees, gem promotion and fusion, crafting and processing fees, and cooking ingredients from vendors. Endgame demand grows geometrically, and a weekly income of about 2-2.5M barely covers enhancement.

Field-boss runs (repeatedly last-hitting Krama): about 30k gold per 30 minutes (1,000 gold plus 10 monster-hunt tokens per kill). Potion runs (crafting and selling Excellent Recovery Potions): about 20k per hour. Dungeon treasure hunts: 8-15k per run.

Transfers rune engraving and enhancement level from old gear onto a new white base item, so your investment carries over instead of being lost. Inject before you retire old gear rather than scrapping it.

Craft Excellent Recovery Potions and sell them on the exchange, where demand is high: about 20k gold an hour. NPC buy prices were cut on 2025-04-24 (30 gold for advanced, 50 for top-grade), so sell on the exchange for deka, not to NPCs.

The Korean verdict is that spending efficiency is 'not that good': beyond membership and the pass, power per won is poor (30-50k KRW per +1% at +14/+15). Community advice: buy membership and the pass, then stop unless you are a whale.
