The massive World 2 update has just arrived in All Star Tower Defense (ASTD)! With this update comes an entirely new world for players level 100 and above to explore, new units, and even a new currency—Emeralds! For a brief breakdown on how to obtain the largest amount of Emeralds in the shortest amount of time, continue reading below.
Best ways to collect Emeralds fast
Purchase them with Robux
Though this method does cost real money, purchasing Emeralds with Robux is, unfortunately, the best and fastest way to obtain them at the time of this article's publication. To do so, enter World 2 and locate the Summon area. As you approach this area and trigger the pop-up menu, locate the Banner Z from the menu's icons and select it.
On the right side of the menu, you'll now see the prices for each Emerald amount. These prices are also listed below.
- 50 Emeralds – 80 Robux
- 180 Emeralds – 250 Robux
- 375 Emeralds – 400 Robux
- 825 Emeralds – 800 Robux
- 1,800 Emeralds – 1,600 Robux
Play Infinite Mode
The best method for those who don't want to shell out the extra Robux, Infinite Mode allows players a once-a-day chance to earn a few free Emeralds, upwards of 400 each day, depending on how long you'd like to grind. For every 10 waves that you survive in Infinite Mode, you will be awarded Emeralds—if you're able to survive for 70+ waves, you'll receive around 100 Emeralds.
With this knowledge, a player who wanted to max out their daily Emerald intake could play all four of the individual modes within Infinite Mode, Elemental, Air, Regular, and Double Path, survive past level 70, and take home around 400 Emeralds.

Trads Gems for Emeralds
Another surefire way to earn Emeralds quickly, the Mystery Man NPC can be found in the shop area of World 2 and offers players the ability to exchange their Gems for Emeralds. For every 50 Gems that you offer the Mystery Man, he will give you 25 Emeralds in return.
Complete Daily Tasks
Similar to the daily task system that existed before the World 2 update, completing all four of your daily tasks in ASTD will now award you with a handful of Gems, along with 50 Emeralds! As implied in the name, these tasks are refreshed each day, giving players a decent way to stack up their Emeralds. For an example of how helpful this method can be, it can be inferred that a player who completes a week's worth of daily tasks would earn 350 Emeralds.
Play Story Mode
The final way to earn Emeralds in ASTD is by playing through World 2's Story Mode. This mode is playable alone or with friends and will award you Emeralds for each stage you complete. The harder the stage, the more likely you are to earn a high number of Emeralds. The most common award for clearing a Story Mode stage for the first time is 25 Emeralds.
