How crowns are earned
A crown is the reward for a quest on that map. GameRant and the achievement list agree on the shape, even when they count the campaign differently.
Six tasks, shown when you pick the map
GameRant writes that a map can pay six crowns and that Neuland, the tutorial, pays one. The quest list is visible on the map-select screen, not mid-battle. Finishing the task is what pays the crown. I am treating that as a guide's reading of the quest screen, which matches the quest rows on the community wiki.
Base-game arithmetic from that guide is nine maps times six, plus Neuland's single crown, which is 55. Achievement thresholds are 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50. Craaghelm uses a separate counter, Dwarven Crowns, with steps from 5 to 40. I am not adding Dwarven Crowns into the base 55.
Questions
How do I get crowns?
Clear the quests listed on the map. Each finished quest pays one.
How many per map?
Six on a full map. Neuland has one.
Why is my crown count stuck?
Some quests demand a weapon, a mutator, or a score. The map page names those requirements.
Do Craaghelm crowns mix in?
They are Dwarven Crowns, with their own achievement steps.
Where do I see the tasks?
On the map select screen, before the run starts.
