SpellForce 2 Coins' Locations

Guide with images to the location of the various coins on both Shadow Wars and Dragon Storm.

Intro

For the purpose of this guide, and for better navigation, each section is divided by game and coin.
So where it says SF2: SW should be read as SpellForce 2 : Shadow Wars, and where it says SF2: DS should be read as SpellForce 2: Dragon Storm.

Shadow Wars is the main game of Spellforce Gold in wich this guide was played with. With Dragon Storm being its direct expansion.

And if you're a Spellforce afficcionado, and want to know more about the game, I invite to visit: SpellForce Wiki - Rohens encyclopedia [wiki.spellforce.info]

Game version

By default, the Steam version it's the SpellForce 2: Anniversary Edition. Since the more stable version to date it's the Gold edition, I recomend you to take a look at the following video:

The Coins in Spellforce 2

Now let's get on the subject of this little guide: The Coins in Spellforce 2.

While you play the campaign, you will find diferent types of coins: One Star, Two Stars, Three Stars and Skull Coins.

SpellForce 2 : Shadow Wars

Speaking about SpellForce 2 : Shadow Wars, this coins are to used to open 13 locked chests located in the middle of The Crater map, near a few lizard nests and the Mad Magician's ghost that will attack you when you go near the chests.



When you reach them, you probably already have some required coins (and you can open some of the chests), but I recomend you to wait until you have at least ALL star coins before you unlock them.

You should have collect them all by the end of this map, right before going down into the crater to fight Naugron.

With the Star coin chests, use the highest coins first (1 star coins can open a 3 star chest, but a 3 star coin cannot open a 1 star chest, get it?).

If a chest has 5 locks, use a 3 and 2 star coin up first.

There are, however, 3 brown chests to the right side that require 5 Skull Coins each to unlock. Only open any of them if you already have the necessary coins.

You will have to return for rest later.

A side note from the author

Spellforce 2: Dragon Storm also features a nice sidequest that it's by itself a cool homage to previous games of the franchise, filled with nostalgic Easter Eggs: The Memories of Eo.
And if you need some help to guide you with some images, I've also written this: The Memories of Eo - Item Locations[wiki.spellforce.info]
