How to Get Quartz in Counter:Side (Free & Fast)
Quartz is the summon currency in Counter:Side — a single summon costs 150 Quartz.
Quartz comes from a wide mix of daily missions, weekly missions, PvE modes, ranked PvP progress and recurring redeem codes. Exact aggregate totals for most of these are not consistently confirmed across sources, so this guide lists what is known to exist without inventing a monthly number.
Daily & weekly missions
- Daily missions — Daily missions cover a variety of tasks that award Quartz: fighting 10 battles, completing 1 Simulation, spending 20,000 Credits, playing Gauntlet Ranked/Strategy matches, running Dispatch, completing a Supply Operation, and simply logging in. Each contributes Quartz, though the exact combined daily total is not confirmed.
- Weekly missions — Weekly missions also award Quartz on top of the daily set, adding another recurring but unconfirmed amount each week.
PvE & PvP progress
- PvE (Dive, Resource Collection, Raids) — Progressing through PvE modes like Dive, Resource Collection and Raids awards Quartz along the way. The exact amount is not confirmed, but these modes are worth clearing regularly regardless.
- Gauntlet (ranked PvP) — Climbing rank in Gauntlet, the seasonal PvP mode, awards Quartz as you rank up. The exact amount per season is not confirmed.
- Main story — Progressing through the main story awards a relevant amount of Quartz, but it is a one-time, finite source — once you finish the story, it stops contributing.
Redeem codes (recurring, amounts vary)
- Official redeem codes — Counter:Side releases redeemable codes on a fairly regular basis, typically worth between 500 and 1,000 Quartz each plus other materials. Codes are temporary, so check official Counter:Side channels for the currently active ones.
Paid (for context)
- **Quartz Supply Contract** — A monthly card exists under this name. Reported prices vary between sources (roughly $5 to $13 per month), so treat the existence of the pack as confirmed but the exact price as unverified. This is a purchase, not free income.
