Knobs

"Used to purchase items before each run. More uses coming soon!" - Lobby Shop

Knobs are the primary form of currency for DOORS. They take the form of regular doorknobs. Knobs can be purchased by Robux or obtained by ending a run by any means, such as winning or loosing.

Overview

The main (and currently only) use of Knobs is to purchase items at the Pre-Run Shop.

Earning Knobs

Players can earn Knobs in a variety of ways, including:

• Opening doors. (Every door opened gives 1)
• Floors survived. (Every floor completed gives 50)
• Collecting Gold. (1 every 20 found)
  • Caps out at 500. (i.e: Will not generate any additional Knobs after collecting over 10000)
  • Every 20 spent in the Jeff Shop will subtract 1, resulting in a lower total than if the Gold wasn’t collected.
    • This might be a bug though, since the amount of gold collected had before a player died (or completed the run) won't show up.
    • This is no longer the case.
• Playing a run with friends. (A +0.1× multiplier will be added for each friend in player’s current run, for a maximum of a +1.1× multiplier with eleven friends)
  • Friends are only counted once a player has died or completed the game.
• Redeeming Codes.
• Purchasing UGC accessories. (Awards 200 and 1 per UGC item)
• The Lobby Shop:

250	600	1300
49 Robux	99 Robux	199 Robux
2,800	5x Boost
399 Robux	100 Robux

• Secret Lobby Shop section (unlocks after spending a certain amount of Robux):

6,000	16,000	1,000,000
999 Robux	2,499 Robux	100,000 Robux

Boosts

Boosts are used for multiplying the conversion rate of Gold to Knobs by 5x per boost purchased.

• 1 boost will be used after a player dies or beats the game in a run.

Trivia

• Unlike Gold or Items, the amount of Knobs a player has will carry over between runs.
• Redibles has stated that in the future, Knobs will "have cosmetic uses and also practical uses".^[1]
• For some unknown reason, Knobs do not resemble the doorknobs on doors in the game.
• The top donators for Knobs will be shown on the leaderboard in the Lobby.
• If a player has spent a certain amount of Robux inside the game, a hidden section will be revealed in the shop, with three new options to buy knobs. These include: 6,000 knobs (999 Robux), 16,000 knobs (2,499 Robux) and 1,000,000 knobs (100,000 Robux).
  • This was done in order to only present these more expensive options to people who are already willing to donate a large amount of Robux to the game.
• By having 11 friends (110% Knobs boost), getting 200 Knobs for beating The Rooms, getting 500 Knobs for getting 10,000 gold, and having a 5x Knobs boost on, you would achieve a maximum of 7,350 Knobs, which is the highest amount of Knobs you can earn in a DOORS run without modifiers.
  • However, with modifiers you could get 27,385 Knobs, with a 283% modifier bonus, or without random modifiers, 25,597 Knobs with a 258% bonus.
• If you leave a run before you beat a floor or die, you won't get any knobs from that run.
• During playing on a floor, the highest knobs you can obtain after dying or completing the floor is unknown, but probably has no limit. (confirmation needed)
