Crowns
From SpiralKnights
Crowns are the basic unit of money on Cradle. You can earn crowns by two methods: adventuring and helping to build gates. The number of crowns that you have can be found in the upper right side of your Spiral Knights screen under the minimap.
Crowns are used for:
- Elevator fees when going directly to Moorcroft Manor or Emberlight to adventure
- Crafting items
- Paying for items and recipes from vendors
- Purchasing crystal energy using the Energy Depot
Finding Crowns while Adventuring
Crowns can be found down in the Clockworks that you reach by taking the gate elevators. While adventuring, you will find crowns on the levels, as well as crowns dropped by killing monsters. You pick up crowns by walking near them. If there is more than one knight in your party, all the knights will receive the same number of coins. There are five different denominations of crowns:
Earning Crowns by Building Gates
Knights that find minerals while adventuring can used them to help build gates. Contributing minerals to a gate can give you a small payout of crowns.
