Which premium is best for farming in Knight Online?
The game's own description recommends DC Premium for "players looking for more Noah and items". Below are four packages side by side from a farmer's point of view: DC and Platinum tie on Noah, and they part ways on gifts, NP and price. Gold and WAR fall behind for farming.
| Feature | DC | Platinum | Gold | WAR |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Monster Noah | +100% | +100% | Extra Noah, rate not given | +30% |
| Item drop rate | Increase + DC Flash | Increase | Increase | Increase |
| EXP | +30% | 1–50: +400%, 51–83: +100% | +30% | +100% |
| NP per kill | +12 | +5 | +5 | +15 |
| Farming gifts | 30 Magic Hammers, Golden Pickaxe voucher | None | None | Golden Fishing Rod |
| NPC sales and repairs | Higher sell price, repairs 50% off | — | Higher sell price | Higher sell price, repairs 50% off |
| Price (30 days) | In the PUS | 2,796 NPoint | 1,996 NPoint | 2,599 NPoint |

What does DC Premium add when farming?
- Noah: base Noah from monster kills is doubled. Event and quest rewards and the price of items you sell aren't part of this bonus.
- DC Flash: with DC Premium active, DC Flash raises the item drop rate further.
- Magic Hammers: you get 30; when farming with Genie they repair your gear in the field (Knight Genie settings: attack, support, potions and Genie Hammer).
- Golden Pickaxe voucher: a one-month golden pickaxe used for mining (Knight Online mining guide: where to get a pickaxe, where to mine and what it drops).
- DC store: some vendors only sell to DC Premium; on other accounts the game says "Non DC premium users can't purchase items here."
DC Premium potions: where to buy Ibex and Crisis, and for how much?
When NTTGame opened potion sales at Aset in 2022 it listed two prices: without premium Ibex 70 million and Crisis 105 million Noah; with DC or WAR Premium Ibex 55 million and Crisis 80 million. Potions bought with premium can't be traded. In game they're called "Ibex potion [Premium Limited]" and the description mentions DC or WAR Premium. Aset's current stock is in Knight Online Aset NPC: what it sells, the rotation and prices.
Platinum or DC? Same Noah, so where's the difference?
Both raise base Noah by 100%, so for Noah alone they're equal. The difference is everything else: Platinum gives +400% EXP from 1 to 50, 800 Bonus Points and a Trina's Piece; DC gives +12 NP, Magic Hammers, the pickaxe voucher, the DC store and cheaper Ibex/Crisis. For a level 83 character farming in a slot, DC; for a new character you're leveling and earning with, Platinum.
Is Gold good for farming?
Gold's web shop description lists "bonus base Noah at all levels" but gives no rate. There are no farming gifts and no repair discount. Gold's real strengths are item sealing, 800 Bonus Points and a Trina's Piece; for farming DC is the clearer pick. Details: Gold Premium features.
Work out the premium difference yourself
Premium only increases the base Noah dropped by monsters. If you collect 50 million Noah from monsters in an hour, DC or Platinum takes that part to 100 million; what you earn from selling items on the market doesn't change. Subtract potions, repairs and teleports with the table in Knight Online farming: calculate your net Noah income. Where to farm at each level is in Knight Online farming spots: where to farm at each level, with Delos, Eslant and CZ mob levels.
