How to obtain crafting material?

1. There are several ways to obtain gold material. The first method is browsing the offers of wandering merchants. Unfortunately, gold is a very expensive material. In the example from the picture, one piece of gold costs as much as 8300 Mon. Only in the later part of the campaign such expenditure will not be particularly painful.

1. Another way is to check and complete contracts - visit any unlocked kakurega hideout. Gold can be among the prizes, but it doesn't have to be on the list. Check current contracts whenever you can.

1. Another way is the Animus challenges that work sort of like a battle . You can check the rewards in the projects tab - gold may be among those currently available.

What to spend the Gold material on?

1. Gold can be used in the forge and it serves to improve the legendary equipment of the main characters. His biggest advantage is that 1 piece of gold can upgrade equipment to the hero's current level. You don't need to have other crafting materials for that.
2. In the example from the picture, it is possible to upgrade the item from level 52 straight to level 58. So it's not worth using gold too often, but only to improve the gear whose level has dropped significantly below the hero's level and as a result have become useless.
