With a plethora of different currencies that can be spent only at certain places for certain things, players have keep tabs on whom they can spend what with and where said whos actually are. Wondering what those Credits of Ca' d'Oro are good for? What about whether Sequins of Solomon Island can be used in Transylvania? This handy guide will help demystify coin collecting and show you the ins and outs of all those tokens filling up your wallet.

    Need a new pair of boots? If so, you'll probably want to take part in The Secret World's upcoming Black Weekend. The event, which begins on Friday, June 14th, at 9 a.m. EDT and concludes on Monday, June 17, at 9 a.m. EDT, brings a few special bonuses, including a rugged pair of Black Heavy Buckled Boots. Log in during the Black Weekend event and you will be able to claim a free potion from the item store that doubles XP gains from monster kills for eight hours. One account may claim one new potion every 24 hours. Additionally, any activity that normally rewards Black Bullion will award one extra Black Bullion during the weekend, so get to farming that black gold. There's one more bonus to current The Secret World players: For every player you recruit between now and the end of Black Weekend, you'll receive a free month of premium membership.
