Lunar Coins are an in-game currency that you maintain even after finishing a run. They are rarely dropped, but you will see from time to time when an enemy is killed. Anyone can grab a Lunar Coin once it has dropped, so nab it before someone else does! If you save up 10 of the coins, you can use them to unlock the Artificer, which is in the Bazaar Between Time. This will spawn if you pay a Lunar Coin at a newt alter, or it will randomly spawn once you've defeated a boss.

You will find Lunar Chests randomly throughout the different levels in the game. They cost 1 Lunar Coin to open and will give you a randomly chosen option of the following items (including the equipment).

Beads of Fealty

  • Stack Type: None
  • Tips
    • It is used when the player obliterates themself at the Obelisk in A Moment, Fractured. It transports them to A Moment, Whole, which contains one of the four Twisted Scavenger.

  • Description: Using a Shrine summons enemies (stronger per stack) nearby. Scales over time.
  • Stack Type: Linear

    • Stacks of Ruin are refreshed when a new stack is applied to a target, so it's best to switch them only when necessary.

    • Using this item with the other three items turns the user into a Herectic.

Focused Convergence

  • Stack Type: Exponential

    • Multiple stacks can increase the increase the ward's effect radius, so stacking too much can provide the bonus effects to enemies as well.
    • The Engineer's TR12 Gauss Auto-Turrets are one of the most effective weapons to combine with this effect.

  • Stack Type: Linear
