๐Ÿ’ฐ Economy & Trade

โ€œBecause even heroes need to pay the bills.โ€

Welcome to the wallet of the world. Whether youโ€™re here to get rich, sell shiny things, or finally understand what a Bag of Gold Coins is even for โ€” this section has your financial future covered.

Prepare to dive into the economic engine that keeps RiftRO turning. Spoiler: itโ€™s mostly Zeny and questionable deals in Payon.


๐Ÿช™ Zeny & Currency System

Letโ€™s start with the basics: Zeny is king. But itโ€™s not alone.

In RiftRO, weโ€™ve got multiple types of currency. Some tradeable, some rare, and some you find in that one MVP box you forgot to open for three weeks. This section breaks down the core currencies, their uses, and how to get your hands on more of them (legally, of course).

Currencies you’ll learn about:

  • Zeny โ€“ The classic, the OG.
  • Cash Points โ€“ Earned or bought, we donโ€™t judge.
  • Mithril Coins – Event Coins ???(?>?)
  • Bag of Gold Coins
  • Bag of Bronze Coins
  • MvP Coins
  • Donation Tokens (PoD)

And yes, weโ€™ll help you figure out which coin goes where โ€” so you donโ€™t try to buy potions with a PvP reward token.


๐Ÿ’ต RiftRO Cash System (Fair Play)

Pay to win? Nah. Play to win.

Our Cash System is built around fairness and accessibility. Yes, you can donate to support the server (and we love you for it). But you can also earn Cash Points through in-game achievements, events, and even MVP drops.

This section explains:

  • How to earn and spend cash responsibly
  • What kind of items are in the Cash Shop (No +1000 STR swords here)
  • The balance between convenience and competitive integrity

VIPs get some extra goodies, but nothing that canโ€™t be earned with time and effort. We believe in fair fun โ€” and shiny costumes.


๐Ÿช Market & Trading Guide

Ready to make some coin? Or blow all your savings on a +9 hat?

This section is your complete trading bible. Learn how to buy, sell, barter, and set up shop like a proper merchant โ€” or at least look like you know what youโ€™re doing.

Covered topics:

  • Setting up vending shops (Zeny or Cash-based or any coin)
  • Using the Street Search System
  • Vending Reports (via Mailbox!)
  • Avoiding scams, market trends, and price checks
  • In-person trades and making sure you donโ€™t trade your Sleipnir for a Jellopy by mistake

Remember: the economy is player-driven, chaotic, and sometimes run by actual goblins.


๐ŸŒพ Farming & Drops

Letโ€™s get to the grind โ€” the fun kind (sometimes).

Whether you’re after cards, gear, or just pure Zeny, this section teaches you where to go, what to kill, and how to make your time worth the loot.

Learn:

  • Best maps for Zeny farming
  • Which monsters drop valuable cards or mats
  • How Custom Drop Table works
  • What buffs/items to bring to maximize profits
  • How to not die while trying to look rich

Pro tip: if youโ€™re farming Poison Spores for Zeny in 2025, you may be doing it wrong. Unless youโ€™re into that.


๐Ÿงพ Final Words

The economy isnโ€™t just about wealth โ€” itโ€™s about progress, creativity, and flexing your overupgraded gear in town.

Whether youโ€™re a shrewd merchant, a lucky drop god, or someone who just wants enough Zeny to afford fly wingsโ€ฆ this is your place.

Welcome to Economy & Trade. May your pockets be deep and your trades be blessed.
