While exploring islands in Lost Ark, you may find Island Quests that offer a one-time drop of Pirate Coins. Note that some quests on later islands may reward over 16,000 Pirate Coins, but they cannot be accessed immediately and can only be completed once.

  • Giant Mushroom Island: 2,000 Pirate Coins
  • Peyto and Glacier Isle: 5,000 Pirate Coins
  • Runaways Island: 5,000 Pirate Coins
  • Sublime Island: 6,000 Pirate Coins
  • Golden Wave Island: 7,000 Pirate Coins
  • Kalthertz: 8,600 Pirate Coins
  • Cradle of the Sea Fermata: 9,000 Pirate Coins
  • Atropos: 10,000 Pirate Coins
  • Freedom Isle: 15,000 Pirate Coins
  • Lullaby Island: 16,500 Pirate Coins

Note: There's only one quest available on each island, so each quest can be completed only once.

Una’s Daily Tasks

One of the easiest ways to obtain Pirate Coins is by completing Una’s tasks. By completing quests, you can earn reputation points and unlock bonuses in the reputation tab once you reach certain thresholds. The rewards for each level vary, so make sure to check them out. Beginning with Una’s Daily quests is a great way to quickly accumulate over 100,000 Pirate Coins at the start of the game.

Defeat Ghost Ships

Ghost Ships are special endgame events in Lost Ark that offer numerous rewards to players. These events occur weekly and involve searching for three different ghost ships during your voyages.

One of these ghost ships, the Nightmare Ghost Ship, can be particularly challenging to locate. Nevertheless, adventurers can obtain various valuable resources, including Pirate Coins, by demolishing these ships.

Fishing

Finally, fishing in Lost Ark can also yield Pirate Coins, but it's not a dependable source. Since acquiring coins while fishing is infrequent, it's advisable to concentrate on other methods instead.

So there you have it. That's everything you need to know about acquiring Pirate Coins in Lost Ark.
