Destiny: Rising: The Complete Currency Guide and Tips

by

Destiny: Rising isn’t just about defeating enemies and bosses. It’s a game where careful planning, resource management, and smart choices are key to progress. Understanding how the game’s currency system works is often what separates a successful team from one that plateaus. That’s why we created this Destiny: Rising Currency Guide.

Whether you play Destiny for free or spend money on it, understanding how to manage your in-game resources – saving, spending, and investing – is key to a better experience. This guide, *Destiny: Rising Currency Guide*, will help you do just that.

List of Free Currencies in Destiny: Rising

1. Lumia Leaves

How to get Lumia Leaves in Destiny: Rising

Lumia Leaves are a key free-to-earn currency in Destiny 2: The Final Shape. You can get them by playing the game – specifically, completing story missions and character quests will regularly reward you with Lumia Leaves, so it just takes time and effort.

You can earn Leaves by exploring the game world – things like finding treasure chests, visiting interesting locations, and completing exploration-based reputation rewards. Daily and weekly bounties are particularly useful, with weekly tasks offering bigger rewards than daily ones. Don’t forget to check out Triumphs, Handbook challenges, and rewards from special events – they all give you Leaves too.

Where to use Lumia Leaves in Destiny: Rising

Okay, so you don’t actually *use* Lumia Leaves to get new characters directly. Instead, I have to trade them in for Bon Voyage Charms, and *those* are what I use to pull on banners. Honestly, because pulling can eat up a ton of Leaves, I’ve learned it’s best to save them for those special, limited-time banners with characters I really want. It’s way more efficient that way!

2. Bon Voyage Charms / Bon Voyage Charms L.E.

How to get Bon Voyage Charms in Destiny: Rising

Bon Voyage Charms and Bon Voyage Charms L.E. are the tokens you use to summon Lightbearers from banners. You can acquire these charms by exchanging 180 Lumia Leaves for each one, and you earn Lumia Leaves as described previously.

You can get Charms through the free Battle Pass, special events, and by completing missions or quests. While you won’t earn as many Charms from these sources as you would by purchasing them, they’ll consistently give you a steady supply if you play regularly.

Where to use Bon Voyage Charms in Destiny: Rising

Okay, so as a player, here’s how I approach Charms. For those permanent banners, like “The Rising Lights,” I always use the standard Charms to just build up a wider range of characters. But I *save* those special Bon Voyage L.E. Charms for the limited-time banners – the ones with those really good, exclusive Lightbearers or just better overall deals. Those LE banners don’t stick around forever, so using those L.E. Charms on them feels like I’m getting the most out of my free stuff, you know?

3. Glimmer, Enhancement Prisms, and Incandescent Tufts

How to get them in Destiny: Rising

Glimmer is a common in-game currency you’ll find all over the place. You earn it by doing everyday things like defeating enemies, finishing missions, exploring areas, and opening chests. Because it’s tied to normal gameplay, it’s one of the easiest currencies to collect.

Enhancement Prisms and Incandescence Tufts are used to improve your weapons, relics, artifacts, and character abilities. You can get them by completing bounties and quests, increasing your reputation, breaking down weaker items, and sometimes through events or the Battle Pass.

Where to use them in Destiny: Rising

You’ll primarily spend Glimmer on improving your Lightbearers, upgrading your gear, refining relics, and buying everyday items from NPC shops. Enhancement Prisms modify weapons, while Incandescence Tufts are used to strengthen your character’s abilities and signatures. Since you’ll use these currencies frequently, it’s best to save them for upgrades that will significantly boost your power.

4. Artifactual Dust and Strange Coins

How to get them in Destiny: Rising

You get Artifactual Dust by breaking down artifacts or completing Singularity: Chaos. Strange Coins are earned from both Singularity: Order and Chaos. Because these are rewards for challenging endgame activities, you’ll collect them as you play high-level content.

Where to use them in Destiny: Rising

You use Dust and Glimmer to improve your artifacts, and Strange Coins can be traded at the Artifacts Exchange or spent in the Paraverse to get powerful enhancements. These are both currencies meant to help you progress and tackle the tougher parts of the game.

5. Translation Credits and SPI Tokens

How to get them in Destiny: Rising

You earn Translation Credits by completing Shifting Gates, and SPI Tokens by doing Pack SPI Drills. Both are obtained through regular play of these specific activities, but become quite easy to collect once you’ve made them a habit.

Where to use them in Destiny: Rising

Credits are the currency used in the Shifting Gates store, while SPI Tokens can be traded at the Pack Exchange store. These are specialized currencies, but the stores where you use them frequently offer useful items to improve your progress.

6. Battle Pass Tokens and Weapon Tokens

How to get them in Destiny: Rising

As a player, I’ve learned that earning rewards is all about the Battle Pass! Whether you’re playing on the free track or have the premium pass, you’ll get Tokens as you level up. There are two main types: Regular Battle Pass Tokens, which you’ll find pretty often, and Weapon Tokens, which are rarer but super useful for getting awesome new gear.

Where to use them in Destiny: Rising

Players earn Tokens to buy rare items at the Rarities Trove, and Weapon Tokens to purchase powerful weapons at the Exotic Arsenal. These rewards provide consistent benefits for those who play regularly throughout the season, recognizing their continued commitment.

7. Light Crystals, Fortuna Crystals, and Fortuna Dust

How to get them in Destiny: Rising

All three of these resources are connected to the game’s random draw system. You get Light Crystals when you get the same character multiple times. Both duplicate characters and weapons can give you Fortuna Crystals. Fortuna Dust comes from getting duplicate items that aren’t as valuable. Essentially, they’re all rewards for trying to collect new characters or equipment.

Where to use them in Destiny: Rising

Light Crystals are used to improve your characters’ abilities. You can also trade Fortuna Crystals and Dust for useful items and resources in special shops. If you frequently participate in in-game events, you’ll likely collect a lot of these.

8. Bright Dust and Bright Pigments

How to get them in Destiny: Rising

Bright Dust and Bright Pigments are used to buy cosmetic items in the game. You can earn them by getting item rewards from gacha pulls (instead of characters), completing the Battle Pass, or trading in certain shops.

Where to use them in Destiny: Rising

You can use these currencies in the Cosmetics Store to get new skins, outfits, and other visual upgrades for your characters. These items don’t change how the game plays, but they let you customize your Lightbearers and make them look unique.

List of Paid Currencies in Destiny: Rising

Silver

How to get Silver in Destiny: Rising

In Destiny: Rising, Silver is the main premium currency, meaning you have to buy it with real money from the in-game store. While you can sometimes get a little extra Silver through special bundles or promotions, the only reliable way to get it is by purchasing it directly.

Where to use Silver in Destiny: Rising

Silver lets you buy special items in the game. This includes unique character customizations, upgraded Battle Pass options, and limited-time items you can’t get with free currency. Since you buy Silver with real money, it’s a good idea to save it for cosmetics or exclusive rewards that you can’t earn otherwise, especially if you want to get the most for your money.
