The Obol Store
The Obol Store is where you spend Obols. Open it with /store (it's available in the game world, not in the hub lobby). Your Obol balance is shown at the top, and every purchase shows a confirm step before any Obols are deducted, so you can't buy something by mis-clicking. Confirm sits on the right, Cancel on the left. If your inventory is full when a purchase arrives, the item goes to your stash; pick it up with /collect.
Purchases made on the web store (buy.ancients.gg) arrive in game within about 15 seconds of paying.
The catalogue is split into categories. Start here, then dive into the section you need:
Ranks & Upgrades
Rank papers come in two kinds: permanent papers that never reset between seasons, and cheaper seasonal papers that last until the season ends. Each tier is cumulative. It includes everything from the tiers below it. The paper arrives as an item; right-click it to apply the rank. See Ranks for what each tier unlocks.
| Rank paper | Permanent | Seasonal |
|---|---|---|
| Lantern | 1,400 Obols | 350 Obols |
| Brazier | 3,000 Obols | 750 Obols |
| Bonfire | 7,500 Obols | 1,875 Obols |
| Pyre | 12,500 Obols | 3,125 Obols |
| Everflame | 20,000 Obols | 5,000 Obols |
Already own a permanent rank? An upgrade moves it up a tier and costs exactly the price difference between the two papers.
Season Pass
The paid track of the Season Pass costs 3,000 Obols, a one-time purchase per season. You get a claimable pass item that's tradeable until claimed, so you can gift it to someone else. Once claimed, the paid rewards are retroactive on every tier you've already earned this season.
Ancient Crates
A premium crate with guaranteed loot every open: a set of guaranteed relics plus a guaranteed jackpot roll. The crate for this map is the ✦ Asphodel Map IV crate at 5,000 Obols, which opens with its own lantern animation. See The Asphodel Map IV Crate for what's inside.
Global Boosters
Global boosters are server-wide: when you pop one, everyone online benefits, and they stack with personal boosters. See Boosters for how the multipliers layer.
| Booster | Price |
|---|---|
| XP Booster | 500 Obols |
| Energy Booster | 500 Obols |
| Mystery Global Booster Box | 350 Obols |
| Ore Booster | 250 Obols |
| Shard Booster | 250 Obols |
The Energy Booster boosts Ancient Energy gains, and the Mystery box rolls one of the four types at random.
GKit Flares
A GKit Flare summons a god-tier kit from the sky: place it and the drop lands after 30 seconds. Flare gear is capped at Diamond tier, and store-bought flares have a chance to also contain a GKit Beacon.
| Flare | Price |
|---|---|
| Helios | 700 Obols |
| Hecate | 800 Obols |
| Tartarus | 850 Obols |
| Aegis | 950 Obols |
| Ares | 1,000 Obols |
Weekly Loot Boxes
A rotating Weekly Loot Box: a fresh themed box each Friday, with the exact drop chance shown next to every item. Buy one for 1,000 Obols, or that week's bundle for 3,000. See Weekly Loot Boxes for the current rotation, and Lootboxes & Crates for how boxes work in general.
Looking for something specific like Fortune's Dice? Those world-event rolls now live with the rest of the special items rather than on a fixed store shelf.
