Metin2 Easter Raffle 2019 – Event Guide

The Easter Raffle 2019 is a seasonal raffle event in Metin2 that is exclusively accessible via the in-game Item Shop. From Level 30 onwards and after completing the quest "The Biologist's Research (Orc Fang)", you receive a free ticket daily. Each drawn ticket guarantees you a prize – either a specific item that goes directly to your Item Shop storage, or a lucky symbol for the jackpot mode. The event belongs to the category of Item Shop actions within Metin2 Event Systems.

Participation Requirements: Who Can Take Part?

Basically, any account can participate in the Easter Raffle. However, there are two different ways to obtain free tickets:

• Method 1 (Free ticket from day 1): Your character is at least Level 30 and you have completed the quest "The Biologist's Research (Orc Fang)" before the event starts. Then you receive a free ticket daily.
• Method 2 (Free ticket from day 8): You are below Level 30 or have not yet completed the quest. If you purchase at least one ticket per day for 7 consecutive days, you will also receive a free ticket daily from day 8 onwards.

In addition to the free tickets, you can purchase additional tickets per day for Diamonds (DM). An important note on timekeeping: A new raffle day begins at 04:00 AM each day.

How to Open the Raffle – In-Game Access

The Easter Raffle is exclusively accessible in-game via the Item Shop. There is no external access via the website. Alternatively, you can follow events in-game via the Event UI – you can access the window via the corresponding hotkey or the "E" symbol next to the mini-map. Through the Event UI, you can open the associated event window with a single click.

Ticket Costs: How Much Does a Ticket Cost?

Tickets are sold in packages of 5 each. There is an advantageous pre-purchase option: The five tickets for the next day can be purchased a day early at a lower price. After the first package of 5 tickets, you can purchase another package of 5 tickets on the same day.

This gives a total price of 273 DM for the second daily package. The advantage of the pre-purchase is the cheaper entry price – if you plan to draw multiple tickets daily, keep an eye on the pre-sale.

What Can You Win? Possible Ticket Prizes

Every ticket guarantees a prize – this is the central promise of the raffle. There are two types of prizes:

• Items: These are automatically placed in the Item Shop storage of your account. You don't need to be online at a specific time to avoid losing the prize.
• Lucky Symbols: Special symbols that accumulate over the course of the event and can be redeemed for a separate prize.

The exact list of all possible ticket prizes and daily prizes is documented in the official Metin2 Wiki. Since the tables from the Wiki were not fully transmitted, we refrain from providing an incomplete list here.

Lucky Symbols: The Raffle's Jackpot System

Lucky symbols are the heart of the Easter Raffle's bonus system. As soon as you have collected three lucky symbols, you receive a corresponding prize based on the sum of the symbol values. Important notes:

• The prize must be claimed before you can purchase new tickets. As long as you have three symbols and have not claimed the prize, the raffle is blocked.
• When you own three symbols, you can re-roll to obtain a different prize. This costs 5 Dragon Stones (DS) per re-roll.
• Re-rolling is possible as many times as you wish – as long as you are willing to invest 5 DS each time.

The system gives you control over whether to accept the randomly obtained lucky symbol prize or re-roll in hopes of a better prize. Keep in mind how many DS you are willing to spend – there is no guarantee of improvement.

Raffle in Context: The Metin2 Event System

The Easter Raffle belongs to the category of Item Shop actions within the Metin2 Event Systems. In addition to the raffle, the Advent Calendar also falls into this category. The overarching event system in Metin2 includes annual events such as the Easter Event, Valentine's Day Event, Halloween Event and Christmas Event, as well as mini-games, event dungeons and other event systems. The raffle is a purely Item Shop-based format – in contrast to event dungeons such as the Treasure Island, which are played in-game.

Game Team Events, which are run by members of the official Event Team, are clearly separate from the raffle – they operate independently of the Item Shop.

Tips for Efficient Participation

• Complete the quest beforehand: If you haven't yet completed the "The Biologist's Research (Orc Fang)" quest, you'll miss out on valuable daily free tickets. This quest should be completed before the event starts.
• Secure tickets in pre-sale: Take advantage of the discounted price for the next day if you plan to purchase multiple tickets anyway.
• Raffle day ends at 04:00 AM: Plan your daily purchases accordingly – after 04:00 AM, a new raffle day begins.
• Claim your lucky symbol prize immediately: Don't forget to claim your lucky symbol prize. As long as it hasn't been claimed, you can't purchase any more tickets.
• Plan a DS budget for re-rolling: Each re-roll costs 5 DS. Set yourself a clear limit before you start rolling.
• Check your Item Shop storage regularly: Prizes won through tickets are automatically placed in your Item Shop storage – check it regularly so you don't miss anything.
