12.08.2020
Your guide to currencies, points, boosts, augments resets and other consumables.
Consumables in Conqueror’s Blade are a broad range of in-game items whose utility and value will depend largely on how you apportion your time and resources when playing the game. Of all the items, boosts and currencies listed below that are necessary to compete, all are available simply by playing the game. Those that aren’t are items of convenience. All are consumable - simply acquire and replace when necessary!
As well by simply playing the game, many of the items listed below can be acquired in one or more of three ways. The main one is the in-game Store (press C to access), which accepts Sovereigns as payment. Also in-game is the Seasonal Store (F5), which is only accessible when a season is active and accepts only the current season’s Hero Tokens. Finally there is the MY.GAMES Market, an out-of-game store with a broad selection of items that accepts local currency and requires items to be transferred to from your Account Inventory before they can be accessed.
