In MIR4, Ancient Dragon Tokens, Ancient Dragon Soul Tokens, and Treasure Tokens are crucial resources in the season and event systems. They don't directly increase combat power; instead, they are converted into equipment, enhancement materials, or special growth items through the exchange system's "box opening process." Many players overlook the fact that the true value of these tokens lies not in the quantity held, but in choosing the correct exchange point and box opening direction. The core strategy for improving character strength is to exchange tokens for corresponding treasure chests through the in-game exchange site, then open and enhance them.

How to Use Event Tokens Specifically

l Prioritize exchanging Ancient Dragon Tokens for chests in the event shop

The official Ancient Coin Exchange Shop offers items such as Blue Dragon Statue, Magic Orb Growth Boxes, Enhancement Stones, Magic Stone Challenge Boxes, and Dragon Equipment Material Boxes. These items are best suited for directly increasing combat power.

l Prioritize using Ancient Dragon Soul Tokens, which are "Spirit Orb" type materials, for developing your main characters.

The official 2025 update mentioned that Special Magical Soul Orbs have been added to the automatic upgrade system; these materials are better suited for being concentrated on your main character rather than being consumed in a scattered manner.

l For "treasure-type" materials like Treasure Tokens, upgrade the core first, then upgrade the peripherals.

The official explanation states that Ancient Treasures can be automatically upgraded, up to a maximum of Rare Tier 4; the materials used for upgrading are the same as for regular upgrades and disappear immediately after consumption, so they should be prioritized for your main character.

Open chests first or upgrade first?

If you use your tokens to open chests first, the advantage is that you can immediately obtain enhancement stones, summon tickets, and chest-within-a-chest materials, which is quick and suitable for addressing weaknesses when you first obtain tokens. Official event chests already contain many useful materials, such as enhancement stones, summon tickets, and gem challenge chests. However, if your current main equipment, spirit orbs, and treasures are close to the critical point for upgrades, then upgrading first is more worthwhile, as it directly increases long-term combat power. Remember this: "Open chests first if you lack materials, upgrade tiers first if you can." This isn't a hard and fast rule, but rather based on what you currently lack most. This judgment is a practical suggestion derived from official exchange content and the automatic upgrade system.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Should I save event coins until the end?

A: It's not recommended to save them indefinitely. Event coins like Coin of Mir have clearly stated in the official documentation that they have an acquisition period, an exchange period, and a deletion period, indicating that they are inherently resources meant for "immediate use." The same logic applies to the event shop; once expired, they're gone.

Q: How should I choose between chests and materials?

A: If you lack enhancement resources in the early game, choose chests that yield enhancement stones, summon tickets, and growth chests; if you're already focusing on core development in the later game, prioritize saving them for your main weapon, spirit orbs, or treasure materials. The official exchange table already shows that these chests are designed to fill growth gaps.

Q: Do I always have to open treasure chests?

A: Not necessarily. Ancient Treasures now have an automatic upgrade function, so it's more like a resource to "develop first, then see the benefits," rather than needing to be opened into chests every time.

The unboxing guide after receiving the token

For example, if you get a batch of event tokens from dungeons today.

First, go to Shop > Common Product > Event to see if you can exchange them for the enhancement boxes you need most right now; this step is suitable for turning Ancient Dragon tokens into immediately usable resources.

Second, if you still have Coin of Mir, go to various villages to exchange it with Yiun. The official description clearly states that this coin is obtained through field hunting and can be exchanged for items at designated NPCs, including Gift Boxes, enhancement stones, and various material boxes.

Third, if you have treasure-type materials, don't rush to use them scattered; focus on automatically upgrading your main spirit orbs or treasure items first, as the system now supports one-click continuous upgrades until the target level is reached.

In 《MIR4》, the usage of these tokens resembles a progression chain: event tokens are used to exchange for chests, chests are used to replenish materials, and materials are then used to upgrade your main characters. Ancient Dragon tokens are better suited for exchanging for utility chests in the event shop; Ancient Dragon Soul tokens are better for focusing on upgrading Spirit Orbs; and Treasure tokens are better for automatic upgrades. As long as you first identify what you need most before deciding whether to open chests or upgrade, you won't waste resources on unimportant things. The official event shop, village exchange shop, and automatic upgrade system have already explained this path quite comprehensively.
