Lunar Coins

Lunar Coins are a currency found in Risk of Rain 2 that the player can use to purchase Lunar items, activate Newt Altars and Shrines, as well as unlock the Artificer survivor. Lunar Coins can be earned as rare drops from enemies. Additionally, using the Obelisk to obliterate yourself from existence in the hidden realm A Moment, Fractured will reward all players with five Lunar Coins.

Unlike items or the other form of currency, Gold, Lunar Coins will carry over between games.

The drop rate of lunar coins is initially 0.5% per killed enemy, but each drop of a lunar coin per game halves this chance. Turret kills currently does not drop lunar coins, due to a bug.
