PC / Global stable build 1.16.111 as of Oct 2026; v1.17 remains PC public beta
WHERE & HOW TO FARM

Where to farm

Any stage with destructible light sources, while using Arcana XV: Disco of Gold.

Arcana XV, Disco of Gold, makes Coin Bags start Gold Fever. Gold collected during Fever also heals you, so the Arcana can support both a coin goal and survival. This route works on stages where you can safely break light sources and gather their drops. Your total depends on the run and its pickups. These instructions apply to stable PC version 1.16.111; version 1.17 remains a public beta.

GET STARTED

How to farm

Before you go

  • Unlock Arcana XV by reaching minute 31 in Inlaid Library.
  • Choose a character and weapon setup that can survive your selected stage.
  • Leave room to move through areas with light sources and collect drops.
  1. Choose a stage where you can move safely among destructible light sources.
  2. Select Disco of Gold at the start, or take it from an Arcana chest if offered.
  3. Build enough damage and defense to handle nearby enemies while you move.
  4. Break candles, lamps, and other destructible lights as they come into your path.
  5. Collect a Coin Bag or Rich Coin Bag to start Gold Fever.
  6. While Fever lasts, keep gathering gold for currency, healing, and more Fever duration.
  7. End the run when you can afford your planned purchase or when collecting becomes too dangerous.

Farming tips

  • Follow a safe lane that passes several lights instead of detouring into a crowd for one pickup.
  • Fever duration and earnings vary; judge the run by the gold you actually collect.

Repeat, collect and use

Repeat on any suitable stage for more run gold; each run’s yield varies.

Common mistakes

  • Starting without the Arcana: unlock it in Inlaid Library by surviving to minute 31.
  • Chasing a bag through enemies: clear a safe path or leave the drop behind.
  • Expecting gold to provide healing outside Fever: the healing effect applies during Gold Fever.

When to stop or switch

Stop when the purchase goal is met, or switch to a safer stage or build if gathering drops becomes dangerous.
