# Currency Guide

The **Token / Currency System** in Siege of Midgard RO is an important part of progression. While zeny remains a core resource, the server also uses special currencies to support custom systems, rewards, upgrades, and long-term goals.

Understanding how each currency works will help you progress much more efficiently and avoid wasting valuable resources.

### Why Currency Matters

A lot of players focus only on leveling and gear, but currency management is just as important.

Different currencies may be used for:

* buying useful items
* accessing custom shops
* upgrading gear
* exchanging for progression rewards
* participating in special systems
* long-term account growth

A player who understands the server economy will usually progress faster than a player who spends everything carelessly.

### Main Currencies on the Server

Based on the current server setup, Siege of Midgard RO uses the following important currencies:

* **Zeny**
* **Siege RO Coins**

There may also be additional system-based items or exchange materials depending on custom content and future updates.

### Zeny

Zeny is still one of the most important currencies in the game.

You use zeny for many core functions such as:

* buying consumables
* purchasing basic gear
* refining and upgrading
* trading with players
* supporting your general farming and progression needs

#### Starting Zeny

New players begin with:

* **100,000 Zeny**

This gives beginners a starting boost, but it should be spent carefully.

#### How to Earn Zeny

Players can earn zeny through:

* selling monster loot
* farming materials
* trading with other players
* Gold Room farming
* repeatable activities
* custom systems such as Fishing, Mining, or AFK Farming, depending on reward structure

#### Good Use of Zeny

Early on, zeny is best used for:

* starter gear
* supplies
* weapon improvement
* farming efficiency
* practical progression costs

Avoid wasting zeny on random purchases that do not improve your character.

### Siege RO Coins

**Siege RO Coins** are one of the server’s special currencies and are likely tied to custom progression systems.

Depending on server design, coins may be used for:

* custom shops
* special rewards
* progression exchanges
* premium utility
* event-related purchases
* upgrade materials or custom features

Because special currencies are usually harder to replace than normal zeny, players should be more careful with how they spend them.

### Why Special Currency Is Important

Special currencies matter because they often connect to some of the most valuable parts of the server, such as:

* unique rewards
* stronger progression systems
* custom upgrades
* account growth
* long-term goals

While zeny is often spent regularly, special currencies usually require more planning.

### Gold Room and Currency Farming

The server also includes **Gold Room farming**, which can be an important part of your resource-building route.

Gold Room farming may help players:

* build zeny faster
* support gear upgrades
* improve general buying power
* stabilize their economy

For many players, this becomes one of the core repeatable methods for building wealth.

### Currency and Custom Systems

Many custom systems tie directly into the currency structure of the server.

Examples may include:

* AFK Farming rewards
* Fishing rewards
* Mining rewards
* Mission Board rewards
* exchange NPC systems
* refinement and upgrade systems
* event reward systems

This is why understanding the currency system is not only about spending. It is also about knowing where value comes from.

### Beginner Currency Priorities

If you are new to the server, your currency priorities should usually be:

1. build stable zeny income
2. avoid careless spending
3. learn what Siege RO Coins are used for
4. save valuable special currency until you understand its best use
5. use your resources to improve farming and progression

A smart beginner protects value first and spends with purpose later.

### Good Currency Habits

To progress efficiently, build these habits early.

#### Know the Difference Between Spendable and Valuable

Some resources are easy to earn again. Others are much harder to replace.

#### Spend With a Goal

Before spending, ask yourself:

* Will this improve my farming?
* Will this help my build?
* Is this better to buy now or save for later?
* Is this currency easy or hard to replace?

#### Save First, Spend Smart

It is usually better to save special currency until you understand its best use.

#### Learn What Has Exchange Value

Some items may act like indirect currencies because they can be traded, exchanged, or used in progression systems.

### Common Currency Mistakes

Try to avoid these common mistakes:

* spending all your starting zeny too early
* using special currency without understanding its value
* ignoring custom systems that reward useful currency
* focusing only on levels while staying poor
* failing to connect currency use to long-term goals
* wasting valuable rewards on low-priority purchases

Good resource management often matters as much as combat strength.

### Signs Your Currency Management Is Good

You are probably handling your currency well if:

* your zeny keeps growing steadily
* you can afford useful gear upgrades
* you are not constantly running out of supplies
* you save special currency for meaningful rewards
* your spending supports your main progression goals

These are strong signs of efficient account growth.

### Simple Beginner Currency Plan

A practical beginner plan looks like this:

1. use your starting zeny carefully
2. farm basic loot consistently
3. learn which systems reward extra resources
4. save Siege RO Coins until you know their best use
5. invest in gear and upgrades that improve farming
6. build long-term buying power instead of chasing random spending

This creates a much stronger foundation for future progression.

### Final Advice

Treat every currency in Siege of Midgard RO as part of your progression plan.

Zeny helps with your everyday growth, while special currencies like Siege RO Coins may become important for custom systems and higher-value rewards. Players who manage both wisely will have a much easier time gearing up, improving their farming, and reaching long-term goals.

### Summary

The main currencies in Siege of Midgard RO include:

* **Zeny**
* **Siege RO Coins**

These currencies support:

* general progression
* custom systems
* gear upgrades
* trading
* long-term account growth

Build stable income, spend carefully, and learn the true value of every currency before using it.
