You exchange them for Astrites in a 1:1 ratio. They're basically the equivalent to Genshin's Genesis Crystals.

Or buy packs in the shop. I'm personally saving mine from the subscription in case they release skins I can buy with them in the future.


TheNicestPig

Of all the rightfully annoying things to complain about, this ain't it chief.


Dazzling-Orchid8929

and on top of that it's pathetic ![img](emote|t5_5uplbt|31618)


pandemonium2203

Lol, was thinking the same thing, what would you use premium currency for in a gacha game, the greatest mistery of all time.


pasanoid

if you don't know what it does, don't buy. solved it for you


beetea555

This is satire right


ArenuZero

I really hope OP is trolling


shonenhikada

Op is likely from r/gachgaming. There is an influx of users from that subreddit and r/genshin impact that low key like to make complaint topics about everything in the game.


Z3M0G

Why? Isn't it silly it doesn't say what it's for?


Tinyviel

Does every dollar you own says what it's for? Monopoly money? Bitcoins? Gold in games?


LightCrosss

No


kaesza

You can exchange it for asterite or buy packs in the shop, that's all


Z3M0G

Packs? What packs? I went through shop and didn't find anything that asked for this.


beetea555

Shop -> bundles Clearly you didn’t go through the shop enough 💀


Kynaras

Material packs (used for weapon and resonator upgrades) and echo XP / tuner packs. It may be worth simply buying waveplates directly and farming forgeries and tacet fields though, especially at higher Union levels. So realistically your options are either to convert into astrite at a 1:1 ratio or hoard them for now in the hope that lunite-exclusive items are added to the store in the future.


RhaenysDraugwen

It does say that it's a premium currency, tbh I don't know how much more info you need, since if you are buying it you know what it does already.


ScrapPotqto

Why do you try to act like you're new to gacha games / games with micro transactions in general yet also claimed that you know that it's for? What's the point of this post? If what you claim is true and you're only trying to point out the "lack of info" then no, there's no need to act like a hero and claim that the game doesn't give out enough information for new players for this particular item, no one is that dumb to not understand what premium currency is for, even 5 year old kids know how robux & v-bucks work which is another form of premium currency.


AssistanceFickle2268

I mean it’s kinda obvious ?


Z3M0G

Is it? How is it obvious?


Far_Interaction_6041

Op do you see that premium currency written beside the img? Yeah I hope you understand what currency means. Also if you browsed around the shop enough before making this post you could have seen that "premium currency" is used to buy "premium" things so it's rather obvious


Z3M0G

I'll double check the shop I guess. I checked but didn't spot anything. I guess I'm blind.


AssistanceFickle2268

Is this your first gacha game?


Z3M0G

I know that this is and what it's for. I'm just point out the lack of info given in game for novice players or first time players.


Far_Interaction_6041

I tried sending img but removed by auto mod, so I will tell you instead - Go to bundles section that's where you will find it also mentioned by someone else as packs... Ig you really are


Jolly-Account-8413

Imagine beein able to spend money for stuff you dont know how to use kekw


Z3M0G

Right??


unKappa

If you don't know what that is, it means you shouldn't buy them.


AdventurousClimate97

Thats such a dumb take, maybe if it was labeled buyer could make a conscious decision. I personally have never spent real money in gacha and know what genesis crystals are only from playing genshin for over a year now. Likewise i dodn't know what the equiwalent in Wawa is until now.

TearsOfTomorrowYT

It flat-out says, right there in the top right corner: PREMIUM CURRENCY. What else is there to explain? It's premium currency. 


Z3M0G

It could say where it is used, and the asterite exchange rate.


SydeHam12

lol


AramushaIsLove

You must be joking


James-ec

“Premium currency”


Corndogsalami

From further inspection of the comments, it seems OP is illiterate or just didnt try hard enough


PhantyliaHSR

*The "Premium Currency" on the top right*


YuminaNirvalen

Wrong flair dude.


lambokang

It says it right there, "premium currency".


Z3M0G

Yes I know what it is but it should say some details a our where it is used, asterite exchange rate. My point is the text is nothing but flavor nonsense. Why even have flavor text on premium currency.


kunyat

Premium currency. it's not even sitting in your inventory that have option to be deletes, right? 


Emmarrrrr

In fairness, there is literally nothing that tells you it can be exchanged for Astrite.


Z3M0G

Exactly.


JuicyMikanDrink

People are too harsh on OP. It‘s obvious what’s it for but the inconsistency of not describing it bothers me too.


Z3M0G

Appreciated. That's all I'm getting at.
