Uncover Ancient Coins in Dynasty Warriors: Origins

Unlocking the Secrets of Old Coins in Dynasty Warriors: Origins

In the sprawling world of Dynasty Warriors: Origins, you'll encounter a valuable collectible: Old Coins. Their purpose isn't immediately apparent, but this guide reveals how to acquire and utilize them to enhance your gameplay.

Utilizing Old Coins

Old Coins remain dormant until you meet Sima Hui in Chapter 2. Locate his hut in the northern region of the map. Sima Hui provides insights into officer relationships and allows you to exchange Old Coins for valuable items. The exchange rate varies, so plan accordingly:

• 5 Old Coins: 1,000 gold
• 10 Old Coins: Ravenous Spirit Amulet accessory
• 20 Old Coins: 10 Pyroxene
• 40 Old Coins: 10,000 gold
• 70 Old Coins: 20 Pyroxene
• 100 Old Coins: Amulet of Fortune accessory
• 140 Old Coins: 30,000 gold
• 180 Old Coins: Amulet of Merit accessory
• 230 Old Coins: 50 Pyroxene
• 280 Old Coins: Amulet of Means accessory
• 350 Old Coins: 100 Pyroxene
• 400 Old Coins: Musou Bond accessory
• 450 Old Coins: Panacea item
• 500 Old Coins: War God’s Sash accessory

Acquiring Old Coins

Gathering Old Coins requires a multi-pronged approach:

1. Overworld Exploration: Look for glowing pillars scattered throughout the game world. These become visible only upon close proximity, though using the Eyes of the Sacred Bird enhances visibility from a distance.

2. Officer Relationships: Cultivate relationships with NPCs by completing requests. Stronger bonds often reward you with Old Coins.

3. Mission Completion & Regional Peace: Progressing through missions and increasing regional peace yields various rewards, including Old Coins, upon reaching certain milestones.

While accumulating sufficient Old Coins for the best rewards takes time and dedication, consistent gameplay will yield significant returns.

Dynasty Warriors: Origins is available now on PS5, PC, and Xbox Series X/S.
