Gold
Type	Soft currency
Gathered at	Mob kills, Venomweaver, King Scorpia, Money Printer, casino, wagers, admin grants
Skill	None
Used for	Shops, property keys, pets, cosmetics, casino bets, bank expansion, chests

Gold is Kintara's main in-game soft currency. It is not a blockchain token. Players use Gold for shops, property, pets, cosmetics, casino bets, chest opening, and other in-game systems.

Following the death of the Traveling Merchant, Gold is now earned primarily by killing mobs and farming the Venomweaver, with drops rolled server-side and synced straight to your inventory. Property owners can also earn passive Gold through a Money Printer.

Merchant offline: The Traveling Merchant — the former main Gold source — has been found dead and his services are shut down. There are no more gold trades, campaign contributions, or new lottery entries. Lottery tickets bought before his death still pay out: visit his body to collect any outstanding winnings. See Traveling Merchant for details.

How To Earn Gold

Gold now drops directly from combat. All mob and boss gold rolls are server-authoritative, use secure RNG, and are synced straight to your inventory.

Gold from mobs

Regular mob kills can drop Gold:

Mob	Location	Chance	Gold
Magma Brute	Emberstone	1 in 350	1–5 Gold

The Magma Brute's Gold roll is on top of its existing Brute Horn (1 in 5) and Magma Brute Pet drops — killing Brutes can now yield Gold, Brute Horn, and a pet chance from the same kill.

Wilderness Zombies, Dragons, and Wolves previously had a 1-in-500 chance to drop 1 Gold; those Gold drops were removed in a July 2026 update. Their XP, quest credit, scroll, and mount rolls are unchanged.

Gold from bosses

Boss kills are the strongest single-kill Gold sources in the game:

Source	Chance to drop Gold	Gold amount
Venomweaver boss kill	1 in 200 kills	1–25 Gold (random)
King Scorpia boss kill	1 in 100 kills	18–30 Gold (per eligible top-damage winner)

On the Venomweaver kills where Gold drops, the amount is rolled randomly between 1 and 25 — the drop chance was halved from 1-in-100 in an August 2026 rebalance. Every Venomweaver kill also salvages Wood, Stone, and Coal regardless of the Gold roll.

Passive Gold from a Money Printer

Property owners can earn Gold passively by running a Money Printer inside their property:

• The Casino's measured net profit (player wins offset losses) is settled to Money Printers on an hourly cycle, split among every active printer.
• Tier weights: Bronze ×1 · Silver ×2 · Gold ×4 — a Mansion or Penthouse earns four times a Trailer or Flat.
• The printer costs 1,000 Gold, activates once, and accumulates Gold while you are offline. Claim it at will.

See Money Printer for full mechanics and tier weights.
