Patch Notes:
• Currency overhaul:
Yuan is a tradable type of currency that is used for trading between players. It can also be used to convert into Yen at a 1:1 ratio (1,000 Yuan can be converted into 1,000 Yen). Yuan can be acquired through buying/selling with other players, and selling Perfect Hammers, Perfect Vouchers, and Bounty Cards to NPCs.
Yen is a non-tradable type of currency that is used to pay for most game features that previously cost coins, such as learning skills, crafting items, and repairing equipment. You cannot convert Yen into Yuan. Yen can be acquired from most activities such as quests, monster loot, and selling items to NPCs.
