Once Human - Currencies

# Once Human - Currencies ## Introduction > [!quote] > [Once Human](https://oncehuman.game/) is a multiplayer open-world survival game set in a strange, post-apocalyptic future. Unite with friends to fight monstrous enemies, uncover secret plots, compete for resources, and build your own territory. Once, you were merely human. Now, you have the power to remake the world.[^1] The game design of *Once Human* involves the management of multiple in-game currencies, each with their own respective methods to obtain, access, and redeem. These currencies are intertwined with gameplay yet there does not exist any in-game option to easily view information in a centralized format. This guide serves as a compilation of information regarding all currencies within *Once Human*. ![[once-human-trailer.gif|center]] <center>All assets belong to Starry Studio</center> > [!info] > `Currency` is an umbrella term to reference all items within *Once Human* that are collected, counted, and utilized in exchange. In addition to the basic currencies, these 'currencies' may also include resources, materials, tokens, and medals. Any item that the game records the balance (in the upper right corner while in its respective menu) is considered a 'currency' and is included in this guide. ## Catalog | Name | Icon | Tooltip | Type | Description | How To Get | Menu | Notes | | -------------------: | :----------------------------------------------------: | :--------------------------------------------------------: | :-------------------------------------------: | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | **Armor Mod Parts** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-armor-mod-parts.png\|25]] | #TODO/incomplete | *Materials* | Use to enhance `Armor Mods` | Disassemble Armor Mods, Dungeons, Explorations | #TODO/incomplete | -- | | **Astral Sand** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-astral-sand.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-astral-sand.png\|250]] | *Eternaland-exclusive resources* | Use to build and craft in `Eternaland` | Selling resources or completing orders in Eternaland | `Esc` → `Eternaland` → `Manage Materials` | -- | | **Astrealite** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-astrealite.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-astrealite.png\|250]] | *Eternaland-exclusive resources* | Crystalized matter exclusive to `Eternaland` | Complete orders in Eternaland | `Esc` → `Eternaland` → `Manage Materials` | Used to redeem unique Furniture at the Eternaland Shop | | **Cosmetic Token** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-cosmetic-token.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-cosmetic-token.png\|250]] | *Token* | Used to redeem rare items at the `Shop` | Via Seasonal Loot Crates: `Esc` → `PvX Scenario` → `Season Goals` → `Season Shop` → `Seasonal Loot Crate` | `F2` | Redeem via `F2` → `Shop` → `Other` → `Redeem Cosmetic Tokens` | | **Crystgin** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-crystgin.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-crystgin.png\|250]] | *Basic Currency* | For purchasing `Cosmetics` and other items | Top-Up Center | `F2` | Cosmetic shop currency obtained via $ | | **Energy Link** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-energy-link.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-energy-link.png\|250]] | *Basic Currency* | Use to buy common items and resources | Complete Dungeons, Commissions, and Exploration Tasks | `I` | -- | | **Lightforge Ingot** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-lightforge-ingot.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-lightforge-ingot.png\|250]] | *Exchange Currency - Cross-Character Sharing* | Use to open the `Lightforge Loot Crate` | Events, redemption, crate purchases | `F2` → `Shop` → `Treasure Chest` | Exchange: `Crystgin (160)` → `Lightforge Ingot (1)` | | **Lightforge Medal** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-lightforge-medal.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-lightforge-medal.png\|250]] | *Medal* | A special reward that can be redeemed from [Weber](https://gamevlg.com/oncehuman/maps/nalcott/entities/m4PBus7n9isc423Kxf4E) in `Deadsville` | Seasonal Events, Warband ranking rewards, beta test | -- | -- | | **Lightforge Relic** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-lightforge-relic.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-lightforge-relic.png\|250]] | *Exchange Currency - Cross-Character Sharing* | Use to gain rare items in the `Lucky Roulette Redemption Shop` | Disassemble duplicate cosmetics (i.e. unbox duplicates) | `F2` → `Shop` → `Treasure Chest` → `Lightforge Redemption Shop` | Max: 650 Relics Exchange (10 max): `Lightforge Relics (8)` → `Lightforge Ingot (1)` | | **Meme Points** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-meme-points.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-meme-points.png\|250]] | *Memetic Resources* | Use to unlock and upgrade `Memetic Skills` | Leveling up, Season Goals, secure new Deviations during a season | `O` → `Memetics` | -- | | **Mitsuko's Mark** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-mitsukos-mark.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-mitsukos-mark.png\|250]] | *Exchange Currency* | Use to redeem rare items in the `Season Shop` | Season goals, crates | `Esc` → `PvX Scenario` → `Season Goals` | Redeem via `Esc` → `PvX Scenario` → `Season Goals` → `Season Shop` | | **Sproutlet** | ![[once-human-currency-icon-sproutlet.png\|25]] | ![[once-human-currency-tooltip-sproutlet.png\|250]] | *Materials* | This is a tiny active dormant plant that can survive in any harsh environment and patiently awaits the opportunity to sprout again.
