Similar to Pokemon GO, the Witcher franchise has entered the realm of augmented reality with its latest mobile release, The Witcher: Monster Slayer. Instead of traversing the real world to capture cute pocket monsters, you’re battling the darkest and vilest creatures for coin. Gold coins are what you’ll need to purchase important equipment and silver swords. While you could just sink some real money and buy coins from the in-game shop, killing monsters for your rewards is a sign of a true Witcher. Read on to learn how to get gold coins in The Witcher: Monster Slayer.
How to Get Gold Coins in The Witcher: Monster Slayer
To earn gold coins in The Witcher: Monster Slayer, you can complete quests, fulfill Daily Contracts, or brave the dungeon-like “Nemeta” (plural of Nemeton) after hitting level 10. After collecting enough coins, it’s recommended that your priority is obtaining a silver sword as you start with only a steel one.
Questing is the one method of earning gold coins in The Witcher: Monster Slayer. The payout will vary dependent on the difficulty of the quest. Keep in mind that Monster Slayer is a bit different from other well-known AR games in that it is more story-driven in its gameplay, which means you will be tasked with tons of quests to progress the narrative. These quests can be pretty time-consuming depending on the quest’s real-world location, so be prepared for a brisk journey to earn gold when questing.
Arguably, the quickest and easiest way to get gold coins in The Witcher: Monster Slayer is by fulfilling Daily Witcher Contracts. These consist of various assignments such as “Slay X amount of Y monsters” or “Brew X amount of potions.” You can complete up to three a day, earning 50-100 gold coins per Contract.
The final way to earn your keep in Monster Slayer is by braving a Nemeton, a dark, cursed tree where you’ll consecutively battle three tough monsters. To challenge these dungeon-like monster nests, you’ll need to have reached Level 10. Successfully clear out a Nemeton, and you’ll be rewarded with a good chunk of experience and 50 gold coins. While there’s no limit to how many Nemeta you pacify, you can only earn gold coins from the first three you complete (for a total of 150 coins).
The Witcher: Monster Slayer is available on Android and iOS.
