In Chronicles of Arcadia, a diverse array of currencies enhances gameplay by allowing players to purchase items, upgrade gear, and participate in various activities. This guide provides a comprehensive overview of each currency, including how to obtain them and their primary uses.
Gold is the main resource in Chronicles of Arcadia. Players can obtain gold through various methods such as completing quests, selling items to merchants, trading with other players, or by exchanging diamonds for gold with Agnes in Atlas on the Lost Island of Atlantis. Gold is essential for many in-game activities and transactions.
Rubies are obtained when players purchase items from the Item Shop using diamonds, with 10% of the diamond price being given back as rubies. These rubies can then be exchanged in the Item Shop for various quality-of-life (QoL) items and cosmetics, adding value to player purchases.
Diamonds are primarily acquired through trading with other players via the Auction House or by purchasing them from the PlayerNet Shop. Players use diamonds to buy various cosmetic and QoL items from the Item Shop, although their main use is in the Auction House for trading. Additionally, diamonds can be exchanged directly for gold through Cedric in Atlas on the Lost Island of Atlantis.
PNC is obtained from the PlayerNet Shop and can be used in the Item Shop to purchase various weapon or wing cosmetics. It can also be exchanged in the Housing Shop for housing cosmetics, allowing players to personalize their in-game homes.
Phirius Shells are awarded from participating in various minigames. They can be exchanged at merchants in Atlas or Zando for gear sets and gathering/crafting potions. The gear sets cost 150 or 200 shells each and are comparable in strength to Realm of Forgotten Legends Gold Gear. The sets include options for different classes, such as leather, plate, chain, magical, and healer sets, each with specific costs and benefits.
Energy of Justice is awarded from regional events starting from Tergothen Bay and higher zones. At the end of these public events, players can exchange this currency for various goods, including gear sets and stats specific to the current zone. This currency is essential for obtaining high-level gear and improving character stats.
Players can obtain Dreamland Pioneer Sigils by exchanging materials acquired in the Ancient Dreamland with Pioneer Morgan. These sigils can be exchanged for powerful amulets that boost offensive or defensive power, purple level 100 weapons, or purple level 100 gear, depending on the item’s cost in sigils.

Ancient Mementos are obtained from defeating bosses in instances, starting with the level 50 Heart of the Ocean. Each zone from Weeping Coast onwards (excluding Aotulia Vulcan) has Ancient Memento Merchants in their main cities or villages. These merchants sell gear, weapons, recipes, buff food, and gathering materials. Additionally, mementos can be traded with Owenstein in Atlas for diamonds or with Hilary in Atlas for Badges of Trial.
