Different types of currencies in Monster Hunter Online

Greeting once again my fellow hunters, today we will be talking about the in game currency which I know many players are questioning and wondering why are there so many different types of currency being offered in Monster Hunter Online. The guide below will further explain into detail.

I shall explain about the types of currencies, their purposes and how to earn them (in RED) in MHO.

From top to bottom based on the image above:

Hunting Tickets – Every runs in MHO (except for story quests) consumes one hunting ticket. [ 10 hunting tickets will be given daily during reset at 3am GMT+8 and 20 weekly tickets will be given weekly during Thursday 3am GMT+8]
Pokke Points – People who played other MH series should know this term. This is also known as farm points and you can use them to exchange stuffs from the old man outside your farm. [ You can earn pokke points by completing daily quests given by the old man (twice per day), earn them through gathering during hunts (there’s a chance you will gather items beginning with the name 精算, right click those items and they will be converted to pokke points) and also by gathering at your friends’ farm daily (limit to 10 times per day, each gathering yields 25 pokke points(Picture shown below))
Guild Contribution Points – These points can be exchanged from guild hall merchant for gems, costume (durational) or basic items such as paintballs, cold/hot drinks and antidote [You can earn guild contribution points by completing daily guild quests (Picture shown below)]
Time Attack Hunting Ticket (Should be this name XD) – You can use them to exchange for armor spheres, weapon spheres, costumes and also high grade jewel exchange ticket. [Time attack hunting ticket can be obtained by participating time attack hunts and also rewarded at the end of the event, every Sunday 11pm GMT+8, if your team manages to make it into the ranking board]
Gold – The currency used for trading, be it normal trading or trading from auction house. You can also use it to exchange for hunting coin (see no8) through the auction house. It is also possible to mail gold to other players. [Gold can be earned from doing bounty missions, story quests, certain side quests, selling items to the auction house or to players, daily guild quests, events rewards or converting your cash points (see no7) into gold via the auction house]
Silver – Silver is used for purchasing supplies from NPC, crafting equipment (both players and felyne’s), enhancing equipment and also awakening of equipment. Generally whenever there’s a transaction with any NPC, you will be using silver to transact. When you have depleted your silver, any further transaction would decrease your gold reserve. Silver is not allowed to be used for trading with players or trading in the auction house. It is also not possible to mail silver to other players. [Silver can be obtained from many ways. Quests, bounty missions, daily guild and farm quests, arena, and many more.]
Cash points – Used for purchasing of cash shop items including buffs potions, expansion bag, costumes, vip packages etc. Cash points can also be converted to gold by purchasing gold from players via the auction house. [Top up and you will get cash points! Do note that when you top up, it’s cash points and not hunting coins]
Hunting Coins – Same features as cash points but works in a same way as gold and silver. Hunting coins can be used for purchasing of cash shop items BUT are limited to only certain items such as durational costumes which last for 30 days (Permanent Costumes does not apply when using hunting coins, ). [Hunting coins can be obtained by selling your gold in auction house to other players (Yes, you are not seeing it wrong. Buyers used cash points to purchase gold from sellers, sellers do not get cash points for selling BUT hunting coins (pretty sad ikr). It can also be obtained from the levelling bag given by the game (total of 10800 hunting coins!!) or during events.
舞会银币(the direct translation seems weird) – Works the same way as the time attacking hunting ticket. You can use this to exchange for armor spheres, weapon spheres, costumes, also high grade jewel exchange ticket. [You can obtain this by participating in 舞会 event and also rewarded at the end of the event, every Sunday 11pm GMT+8, if your team manages to make it into the ranking board]
