Doubloons are the most common form of currency within the game. They are used to purchase items or trading goods and can be used in player-to-player trade.

Obtaining[]


Being the main currency of Tradelands, doubloons are fairly simple to obtain through various means. Doubloons can be earned by the following:

  1. Trading Cargo
    • This is the easiest way to get lots of doubloons, however, this requires the purchase of Cargo from an NPC Trader, which in turn costs doubloons.
    • If you are low on doubloons, the best way to get back on your feet is to join another player's crew, that way you can use their ship and have other people help to buy some of the cargo, which allows for you to get more DBS safer.
    • Also note that if you are the one who purchased the cargo, you will get a 20 or 30 (explanation / confirmation needed) (same price you purchased cargo for) doubloon commission.
  2. Trading Player-to-Player
    • If you have any other item that another player may want (Oak, Iron, etc) you can trade it, or 'sell' it to them for doubloons. (Make sure you find out a good price for the object from a third party first, or you may get ripped off)
    • Also, note items with "Loyalty" in the name cannot be traded
  3. Killing Opponents
    • Any kill rewards doubloons, however, you can only kill enemies of your team or if both players have their PvP set to 'All'. Being on the Blackwind Pirates will reward you with only 55- 85 doubloons per kill, whereas being on any other team will usually reward you with 100.
    • Just know that there are safe zones in the area where player spawns are located, and you can't kill there.
    • Also, note that only killing members of an enemy faction will reward you.
  4. Sinking Enemy Ships
    • Sinking a ship will give doubloons, varying on the type of ship...
    • If the ship is carrying cargo crates, you can pick them up (F Key) and sell them at a port, and you will get the money!
    • The crates earn more money if sold from a further distance, EXP gain remains constant.
    • Just note that at spawn-islands there are safety zones at the trading docks where you cannot steal cargo, however, you can still harm players and ships that are in this zone.
  5. Collecting a Bounty
    • In the game, players can set bounties on other players. If you kill a player with a bounty, you will get the normal money for a kill, plus however much the bounty is!
    • Just note that most players who have high bounties are extremely good at the game; most likely they will be good at PvP as well.
    • Also, note that only killing members of an enemy faction will reward you with the bounty
  6. Buying with Robux.
    • At any premium merchant, you can get 100,000 doubloons for 1,000 Robux although this is not recommended as there are other easy methods of getting doubloons fast.

Uses[]

Given that Tradelands is a game all about trading, it'd be correct to assume that doubloons played a major role in running the game. The specific usage for the currency is very expensive and provides a backbone of evaluation for almost all goods and items. Here are the general actions in which a player may need to spend doubloons.

  1. Building ships
    • All ships require doubloons to be built. (Except for the Combat Log)
  2. Buying Cargo for Trading
    • Though, if you successfully deliver the goods to another port you will be rewarded with profit.
  3. Trading with other players
    • You could offer doubloons for an item instead of bartering for it.
    • You could be nice and offer them to a player in need, but there is no way to know if they really need help or if they are just greedy.
  4. Buying items from shopkeepers
    • Most items from shopkeepers cost doubloons.

Trivia[]

  • Has seen huge inflation over the past years. Each year, prices for items costing doubloons keep rising.
  • Cannot be used as a crafting material.
