Understanding the Currencies of FragPunk
FragPunk thrusts players into exhilarating 5v5 battles, equipped with a rich variety of game modes, innovative Shard Cards, and a diverse array of Lancers available for combat. The gameplay is characterized by rapid gunfights and intense competition, compelling each player to perform at their best in every encounter.
Aside from its dynamic gameplay, FragPunk introduces a complex array of currencies that can be daunting for newcomers. Understanding the distinct functions and purposes of each currency can significantly enhance a player’s experience, leading to unique rewards as they engage with the game. Below, we present a comprehensive overview of every currency in FragPunk.
Gold
Gold is the initial currency players encounter in FragPunk and operates as the primary earnable currency throughout the game. It is essential for purchasing Lancers, which are priced at 18,888 Gold each, as well as acquiring Relics that offer special buffs during gameplay.
The most straightforward way to earn Gold is by participating in matches, as players accumulate Gold upon concluding each game. For a deeper understanding of how to maximize Gold earnings, be sure to check out our dedicated Gold guide.
FragPunk Coins
FragPunk Coins serve as the second vital currency within the game. Similar to Gold, players can use FragPunk Coins to purchase Lancers, priced at 488 FragPunk Coins each, enabling faster acquisition without the drawn-out grind. Moreover, they are employed for obtaining premium cosmetics such as Lancer and Weapon Skins, Stickers, and Supply Packs available in the game’s store.
This currency can be purchased with real money through the store’s Purchase section. Here’s a quick glimpse of the FragPunk Coin bundles available for players:
- 95 FragPunk Coins: $0.99
- 505 FragPunk Coins: $4.99
- 1,015 FragPunk Coins: $9.99
- 2,060 FragPunk Coins: $19.99
- 3,675 FragPunk Coins: $34.99
- 6,400 FragPunk Coins: $59.99
- 10,800 FragPunk Coins: $99.99
Excitingly, players can benefit from promotions that offer extra FragPunk Coins based on the amounts purchased. Furthermore, those with Monthly or Annual Memberships will receive 1,200 FragPunk Coins each month, translating to approximately 80 FragPunk Coins daily over 15 claims.
Glunite Coins
Glunite Coins, another form of earnable currency, are primarily used for acquiring rare items, including common Lancer skins, select cosmetic pieces such as headwear, and customization options for Lancer banners. To purchase these items, players can select a Lancer and explore the respective Skin or Banner options.
Completing matches earns Glunite Coins, similar to Gold. Players can also receive Glunite Coins by achieving specific accomplishments that need to be manually claimed from the Achievements section in the Challenges tab of the main lobby.
In addition, Glunite Coins can be obtained through the Scavenger Imp option, exclusive to Monthly or Annual Membership holders, or through completing challenges and events, such as the Porcelain Hunting Challenge, which rewards players with this currency.
Weapon & Lancer Skin Keys
Weapon Skin Keys and Lancer Skin Keys are similar currencies allowing players to unlock alternative cosmetics for select weapons and Lancers, respectively. To utilize Weapon Skin Keys, navigate to the Arsenal under Weapons, choose a preferred item, and access the Weapon Appearance section for Advanced Cosmetics. Lancer Skin Keys function analogously for unlocking Lancer styles.
The primary avenues for acquiring these keys include the Battle Pass and ranked gameplay segments found in the Redeem section, allowing players to purchase them using Battle Pass Tokens or Club Supplies. They can also trade Porcelain Shards for both types of keys via the Porcelain Exchange from the Events tab, a feature garnered from challenge completions during the Porcelain Hunting event.
Ultimate Materials
Ultimate Material is a scarce currency associated with select Ultimate Skin Prize Pools, used to acquire rewards from these pools, which can also be found randomly in Curiosity Cans. In Season 1, players can utilize Ultimate Material to claim items from the Consolation Prize Pool by visiting the Lucky Prize Pool in the Featured section of the Store.
Currently, Ultimate Material can only be obtained through two methods: direct awards when opening Curiosity Cans or by earning it through duplicate rewards from these cans, with the amount received varying based on the rarity of the item.
Membership Picks
Membership Picks are a unique premium currency awarded to players participating in FragPunk’s Monthly and Annual Memberships. This currency is vital for accessing exclusive skins, redeemable in the Store’s Redeem section. Monthly members receive 10 picks every 30 days and start Annual Membership owners with a bonus of 50 picks immediately upon registration.
Battle Pass Tokens
Battle Pass Tokens are exclusive to the FragPunk Battle Pass; unlike other games where tokens are used for earning items, here they are spent in the Store’s Redeem section. Players earn these tokens by leveling up the Battle Pass, with every additional level granting 100 tokens, regardless of the purchase status of the Battle Pass itself.
Ranked Tokens
Ranked Tokens resemble Glunite Coins and Gold, as they are earned by completing matches; however, these tokens are exclusive to the Ranked Playlist in FragPunk. Players can exchange Ranked Tokens in the Redeem section for exclusive Ranked Weapon Skins, allowing them to showcase their achievements in competitive play.
Club Supplies
Club Supplies may not receive the attention they deserve, but they are vital for players who engage in club activities. To accumulate Club Supplies, players must either join an existing Club or create one via the Club tab in the main menu. Participation in Club Daily and Weekly Challenges will yield Club Supplies as rewards.
These supplies can be utilized within the Club section of the Store to procure various items, including Decoration Packs, Curiosity Pop Cans, and Weapon Skin Keys.
