Event Coin
Event Coin sits apart from the game's other currencies, Gems, Gold, Expedition Coin, Crown, Raid Token, and Spirit Token, as the dedicated payout for completing quests tied to the Events section of the game. Boost Events like Banner Blitz and Update Events like Creator Spotlight and Headliner Hunt all route their quest rewards through Event Coin rather than Gems or Gold, making it the connective currency across the game's rotating event calendar.
What makes Event Coin distinct from most event-specific currencies in other games is that it does not reset or get siloed per event. Its shop contents and running coin total carry over between every event that uses it, so Event Coin earned during Banner Blitz remains fully spendable once Forge Fever or Headliner Hunt rolls around next, rather than expiring when the event that earned it ends.
The Event Shop that Event Coin unlocks is comparatively small but efficient, trading coin for Trait Crystal, Stat Reroll, Stat Lock, Equipment Reroll, Equipment Lock, Sprite (Grey), and a 200-Gem bundle, all priced around a 10-coin base. Because so many events feed into the same coin pool, a player who participates consistently across Banner Blitz, Forge Fever, Elemental Weather, Creator Spotlight, and Headliner Hunt can accumulate a steady stream of reroll materials without any single event needing to be farmed heavily on its own.

How to earn Event Coin
Event Coin is awarded almost exclusively through completing quests tied to the Events section of the game rather than being purchasable or dropped from regular content. Boost Events and Update Events are its primary sources, each running their own quest structure, some with explicit milestone ladders like Banner Blitz's summon and Mythic-pull tiers, others paying it out through general play during the event's active window.
Where to spend it
The Event Shop is the only place Event Coin can be spent, and its stock stays consistent across every event that awards the currency: Trait Crystal, Stat Lock, and Equipment Lock at 10 coin each, Stat Reroll and Equipment Reroll in 3-packs for 10 coin, a 5-pack of Sprite (Grey) for 10 coin, and a 200-Gem bundle for 10 coin.
Why it does not reset
Because the Event Shop and its coin total are shared across every Event Coin source rather than being scoped to a single event, there is no penalty for under-spending during any one event. A player who saves Event Coin during a Banner Blitz window can freely spend it once Forge Fever or another Event Coin event goes live, making stockpiling a viable strategy rather than a wasted opportunity.
