How to Get Rubies in Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent (Free & Fast)
Rubies are the summon currency in Octopath Traveler: Champions of the Continent — one summon costs 30 Rubies. A Traveler's Sacred Seal, when you receive one, can be exchanged directly for a single summon instead of spending Rubies.
Free and paid Rubies go into the same wallet and are used together when you summon. Most of your monthly Rubies come from daily and weekly quests plus a fixed monthly mail, with occasional large boosts from big collaboration or anniversary events.
Daily & weekly (recurring)
- Daily Quests — About 5 Rubies per day for completing your daily quests, plus a separate daily login reward called Cait Scholar worth 10 Rubies per day — roughly 450 Rubies per month combined.
- Weekly Quests — About 30 Rubies per week from weekly quests, plus a milestone reward of 20 extra Rubies for completing 12 quest sets — roughly 150 Rubies per month combined.
Monthly mail (confirmed, fixed)
- Monthly Rubies mail — A fixed mail reward of 30 Rubies arrives on the 8th, 18th and 28th of every month — 90 Rubies per month, confirmed and consistent.
Events (recurring, variable size)
- Large collaboration & anniversary events — Big events — collaborations and anniversary celebrations — can hand out 800 to 1,000+ Rubies each, but they only happen roughly once every 1–2 months, so treat this as an occasional boost rather than a monthly guarantee.
Redeem codes (exist, no fixed schedule)
- Official redeem codes — Codes are released tied to game launches, livestreams and collaborations, and can include Rubies among other rewards. There is no fixed monthly pattern — check official Octopath Traveler: CotC channels for currently active codes.
Paid (for context)
- **Grand Explorer's Pass** — A 30-day pass, officially confirmed to give 430 Rubies in total: 120 Rubies instantly on purchase plus 310 more at about 10 Rubies per day over 31 days. This is a purchase, not free income — the exact USD price has not been consistently confirmed, so budget for it as a paid option rather than a fixed dollar figure.
