Challenges and Lunar Coins
Earn Lunar Coins through accessible challenges
Build a persistent Lunar Coin balance through challenge completions, then spend it on Lunar items in later runs.
WHERE & HOW TO FARM
Earn Lunar Coins through accessible challenges
Challenge log during a standard run, including ordinary stages and named hidden realms when the chosen objective requires one.
Before you go
- Any survivor; select a named Lunar Coin challenge whose condition is visible in the logbook.
- A run route and difficulty appropriate to the challenge condition.
- For Bazaar purchases later, retain at least one Lunar Coin for a Newt Altar.
Farming steps
- Open the challenge list before starting, and choose one objective that suits your survivor and desired run length.
- Read the full condition, including survivor, difficulty, stage, and no-death clauses.
- Start a run on the required survivor and difficulty; keep the challenge objective in mind while looting and clearing stages.
- Complete the named condition exactly as written, such as clearing a specified teleporter event or reaching a required realm.
- Check the challenge record for completion before you abandon the run or move on to another goal.
- After the run, check your persistent Lunar Coin total and plan spending at a later Bazaar visit.
- Choose several low-risk objectives over a difficult high-payout challenge when the goal is reliable coin progress.
- Coins are not ordinary stage pickups; focus on challenge completion rather than searching the ground.
Repeat, collect and use
Repeat with another uncompleted coin-awarding challenge. A completed achievement is generally a one-time reward, so this is a roster of distinct objectives rather than a repeatable payout from the same challenge.
Common mistakes
- Assuming every challenge grants coins; check that the selected entry has a coin reward.
- Treating a challenge’s payout as difficulty-scaled; the listed reward is fixed.
- Ending the run before checking a conditional clause such as survivor, difficulty, or no-death requirement.
When to stop or switch
Stop pursuing a challenge once its record shows completion and its coin reward is counted; switch to another uncompleted objective or spend coins at the Bazaar.
