TOWER of Fantasy is the newest free-to-play online gacha game and it is already a hit with fans.

As with many free-to-play games, it has various types of in-game currency.

The vast open world of Tower of Fantasy.

However, Tower of Fantasy takes it to the extreme with over a dozen kinds of resources to manage at once.

If you are just starting out it can feel confusing, but don’t worry we’re here to explain it all.

Check out our list of all of Tower of Fantasy’s currencies, how to earn them, and where you can spend them.

How do I earn Gold in Tower of Fantasy?

Starting with the basics, gold is the main in-world currency and lets you purchase things like cooking ingredients from NPCs.

You can also use it to buy weapons and equipment upgrades.

Gold is all over the map; inside chests, in missions, as progress rewards, as login bonuses etc.

You can also use it to exchange for other types of currency.

What’s the difference between Red, Gold, and Black Nuclei in Tower of Fantasy?

Nuclei is one of the most important currencies in the world of Tower of Fantasy.

They are used to collect players, weapons, and advancement materials from the game’s gacha system called ‘Special Orders’.

There are three types and they all give different rewards.

The Red Nucleus is for limited banners that are only in the game temporarily. Rewards include the rarest kind of characters, SSRs.

The Gold Nucleus is used at the standard banner and has a chance to contain SSR characters.

Every 80 Gold Nuclei you spend will guarantee you this rare kind of character.

The Black Nucleus are fed to the second permanent banner, which only contains the more common SR characters.

Gold and Black Nuclei can be found by exploring the map.

You also earn them as rewards for missions, when you level up, and by opening chests.

However, these resources deplete over time, and eventually you will have to trade in other currencies in order to get them.

How can I get Black Gold in Tower of Fantasy?

When you use Gold Nuclei to receive gacha you will also earn a small amount of Black Gold.

Black Gold can be used to buy weapon upgrade materials, and copies of weapons you already own.

You’ll need these to unlock your weapon’s full potential which you can do at the weapon’s shop.

How to collect Dark Crystal in Tower of Fantasy?

If you are familiar with Genshin Impact, then Dark Crystal is most easily compared to Primogems.

Dark Crystal can be exchanged for a number of items including Red, Gold, and Black Nuclei in the HOT store.

Like other currencies, it can be found in chests, as mission rewards, as progress rewards and more.

What is Proof of Purchase in Tower of Fantasy?

While the name is a little strange, Proof of Purchase is another gacha currency you can use at Special Orders.

Unlike Nuclei, using these will reward you with weapon upgrade materials called matrices.

Each matrix you apply to a weapon will give it a special bonus.

If you use 40 proof of purchases you are guaranteed a rare SSR matrix.

Where do I exchange Black Chips in Tower of Fantasy?

Like Black Gold, Black Chips drop when you use Proof of Purchases to get matrices.

If you take these to the Matrix Store you can then exchange these for matrix chests.

Where can I get Energy Crystals in Tower of Fantasy?

Energy Crystal Dust can be used to buy things in the Crystal Dust Store.

You can find equipment and gifts for your characters here that will earn them awakening points.

Giving the right presents will unlock traits and avatars for them.

Energy Crystal Dust is earned as a reward for performing activities that use Vitality.

How do I use Vitality in Tower of Fantasy?

If we compare this again to Genshin Impact, Vitality is the game’s version of Resin.

Every day you log in you can earn 180 Vitality so you can play special multiplayer and solo activities.

You can refresh your Vitality by purchasing an item with Dark Crystals.

When you take part in missions that require Vitality, you will earn rewards including Energy Crystal Dust.

What are Tower of Fantasy’s Activity Points?

Every week you will receive a mini battle pass which, when completed, rewards you with items and currencies.

If you complete the specific tasks, such as opening a number of chests or logging in a number of times, you will earn Activity Points.

Rewards for this include Dark Crystal and Merit XP, which will boost the level of other battle passes available.

What’s the difference between Merit and Merit XP in Tower of Fantasy?

Unfortunately, Merit XP isn’t the only currency called Merit in Tower of Fantasy.

Merit XP works as a kind of experience to level up Battle Passes, while Merit is the currency used in the Crew Shop.

Here you can buy items to upgrade your equipment.

Merit is earned by participating in activities with your crew, the game’s version of a guild.

How do I earn Support Points and Return Support points in Tower of Fantasy?

Tower of Fantasy incentivises playing with newbies by offering Support Points as a reward.

Return Support Points are equally earned by forming a team with someone who has returned to the game after an extended break.

The team hopes this system will create welcoming support for newcomers and returning players alike.

You can use these points to purchase nuclei and other items in the Support Store.

What can I trade in Training Points for in Tower of Fantasy?

You can earn Training Points by completing tasks at the training stations, which are all over the map.

These activities include completing battles within a certain time limit or scoring a number of goals in a game of football.

Training Points can be spent in the Points Store, which offers you XP materials and gifts for your characters.

What is Tower of Fantasy’s Tanium?

Tanium is Tower of Fantasy’s premium currency that can only be obtained by spending real money.

It can be exchanged for Daily Supplies, which are packages containing various other currencies such as Nuclei and Dark Crystals. 

What is the point of the amusement park in Tower of Fantasy?

Using the various attractions in the amusement park on Cetus Island will give you tickets which can be exchanged for exclusive rewards.
