So it's been two months, and I've only managed to get barely enough Ancient Coins from skellie spawns for a single monkey. If there were Twitch Drops of Ancient Coins, at least players could be guaranteed, say, 1 pet every 2 months if they regularly watch streams.
Twitch Drops: How about a weekly Ancient Coin Drop of, say, 50 Ancient coins?
Not worth the hassle on their part to give more opportunities to get free ancient coins
There will be endless "why didn't I get my coins" tickets and complaints
Ancient skellies are a very generous and well thought up system that rewards playing the game. The more time you spend playing and questing on islands the better chance you have of them spawning. I get them pretty regular even got 2 in one day once.
An occasional sale on ancient coins wouldn't hurt my feelings tho
Also use microsoft rewards, it's what I've always done
get points use them on gift cards for microsoft and save up and buy the most expensive one because it has the best ratio
I think a monthly special Ancient Coin event would work, my suggestions for this would be
- Ancient Skellies spawn like normal skeletons in Adventure or the Arena mode.
- Find Collecter Chests filled with an amount of Ancient Coins going from 50 to 100.
- Earn 500 Ancient Coins after completing any Tall Tale.
- A sack full of Ancient Coins that would contain 1,000 inside.
- Skulls of Ancient Skeletons would also be a good drop for killing them, but has a small chance of dropping one.

I'm sure gamers would see this as a good idea lol but it makes zero business sense especially at the numbers given
The system of ancient coins, pets/cosmetics, ancient skellies as it is now is pretty spot on for both gamers and the business side
People get high quality stuff for their money they have a chance to get free in game currency just from playing and we don't have to be flooded with a bunch of cheap stuff that sacrifices quality in favor of quantity
If the currency is made more common and easier there are consequences that come with that. Low end paid content and pay to win are things the current set-up help avoid
and like I alluded to in the first post it would be be a bunch of problems as far as events not crediting accounts right and people yelling "where is my money" then they get told wait 72 hours then it doesn't show up then the people are yelling that they got ripped off/scammed yadayadayada
@wolfmanbush Maybe they should at least add a bit more ways besides using our money for currency and waiting for an Ancient Skeleton, like the Collector Chest of coins or an Ancient Skeleton skull and selling it for coins (maybe selling it to any Emporium Storekeeper?), and they could have a small rate of appearing on Skelly ships or defeating sea monsters and islands.

Maybe have the Emporium Shopkeeper buy Mermaid gems for 1AC for blue, 2AC for green, and 4AC for red. That way you can get AC, just very slowly.
