The Metin2 Summer Raffle 2023 is a seasonal event accessible through the in-game Item Shop. Every account can participate – from level 30 onwards and after completing the quest The Biologist's Research (Orc Fang), you receive a free daily ticket. If you're below level 30 or haven't completed the quest yet, you can secure the free ticket from day 8 onwards by purchasing at least one ticket per day for seven consecutive days. Every ticket guarantees a win, either an item delivered directly to your Item Shop storage or a lucky symbol for the special draw.
Requirements and Event Access
The raffle can only be opened in-game via the Item Shop – there is no external website or browser access. The event is displayed in the Event UI, which has been available in-game since update 19.1. Press the E key or click the corresponding symbol next to the mini-map to open the Event UI and access the raffle directly from there.
- Level 30+ with Biologist Quest: Daily free ticket from day one.
- Below level 30 or without quest: Purchase at least one ticket per day for 7 days – from day 8 onwards, you receive a free daily ticket.
- Day change: A new raffle day begins at 04:00 each day.
The free ticket is a solid starting point, but the majority of the raffle operates with purchasable tickets using Dragon Coins (DM). If you want to target specific prizes, you should familiarise yourself with the daily rhythm and the tiered ticket structure.
Ticket Costs at a Glance
In addition to the free ticket, a limited number of additional tickets can be purchased each day. Here's how it works: The first five tickets for the next day can be purchased one day earlier at a slightly cheaper rate. After these five tickets, four additional tickets can be purchased daily.
| Ticket Number | Cost in DM |
|---|---|
| 6th Ticket | 59 DM |
| 7th Ticket | 68 DM |
| 8th Ticket | 81 DM |
| 9th Ticket | 81 DM |
If you purchase the first five tickets for the following day a day early, you save compared to regular prices. The exact discount depends on the respective daily prices. Purchasing additional tickets is optional – mandatory costs only arise if you actively target daily prizes or specific lucky symbol combinations.
Possible Winnings from Tickets
Every ticket guarantees a win. Winning items are automatically placed in your Item Shop storage. The Summer Raffle 2023 prize list is extensive – ranging from common consumables to rare items. Some items come bundled (e.g. in stacks of 50x, 15x, 10x, 5x or 2x), others as single pieces. Additionally, time bonuses like a 6-hour buff are possible. Each ticket can also award a lucky symbol, which is collected for the special draw.
Since wiki source data for specific item names in the prize list doesn't contain complete texts, it's recommended to view the current prize overview directly in-game via the Item Shop. There, all prizes are displayed with icon and description.
Daily Prizes: Special Daily Goals
In addition to normal ticket winnings, the Summer Raffle 2023 features so-called daily prizes. These are tied to specific days of the event and represent special rewards. The exact daily prizes vary and can be viewed in-game. They appear as a separate category in a ticket's prize list and are considered one of the event's most attractive rewards.
Those who redeem their tickets daily and play consistently have the best chances of receiving daily prizes. Plan your participation so that you don't skip any days.
Lucky Symbols and Special Draw
The second major system in the Summer Raffle is lucky symbols. Some tickets award a lucky symbol instead of a regular item. Once you've collected three lucky symbols, you'll receive a corresponding prize based on the points total of the three symbols.
Important: When you have three lucky symbols, you must actively redeem the prize before you can draw more tickets. The system actively blocks further draws as long as a lucky symbol win is pending.
Alternatively, when you've collected three lucky symbols, you can re-roll for 6 Dragon Coins to obtain a different point combination. This process is repeatable as often as you like – each re-roll costs 6 DM. This can be worthwhile if the current combination offers a weak prize and you're hoping for a better lucky symbol win.
| Situation | Action / Cost | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 3 lucky symbols collected | Redeem prize (free) | Reward based on points total |
| 3 lucky symbols collected | Re-roll (6 DM) | New point combination, new prize possible |
| Prize not redeemed | No action possible | Further tickets cannot be drawn |
Strategic Tips for Participation
If you want to get the most out of the Summer Raffle 2023, consider the following points:
- Daily login: The free ticket is only available if you log in daily and don't let it expire. No day should be skipped.
- Use advance strategy: The first five tickets of the next day can be purchased more cheaply the day before. This saves DM over the entire event duration.
- Redeem lucky symbols immediately: Once three symbols are collected, redeem them immediately or re-roll. Without redemption, further participation is not possible.
- Re-roll only with calculation: 6 DM per re-roll adds up quickly. Only re-roll if the current prize is really uninteresting and better combinations seem realistic.
- Complete the Biologist Quest beforehand: If you're level 30+ and haven't completed The Biologist's Research (Orc Fang) yet, you're losing a free ticket daily. That's not worth it.
The Raffle in the Context of Metin2 Events
The Summer Raffle falls into the category of Item Shop actions within Metin2 Event Systems. It differs from regular in-game events in that it's only accessible through the Item Shop and directly interacts with Dragon Coins. This makes it an affordable addition for players who want to invest in the event season – but the daily free ticket allows basic participation for all qualified accounts without DM expenditure.
The Event UI displays active events clearly. If you don't want to miss the raffle, you should check the UI regularly since events are time-limited. Other seasonal events like the Summer Event or Halloween Event follow a similar annual rhythm.
Frequently Asked Questions About the Summer Raffle 2023
From what level can I participate in the Summer Raffle 2023?
Basically, any account can participate. The daily free ticket is available from level 30 onwards after completing the quest "The Biologist's Research (Orc Fang)". Below level 30, you receive a free ticket from day 8 onwards if you purchase at least one ticket per day for seven consecutive days.
Where do I open the Summer Raffle in-game?
The raffle is only accessible in-game via the Item Shop. Alternatively, you can open the Event UI using the E key or the symbol next to the mini-map and navigate directly to the raffle from there.
What happens if I have three lucky symbols but don't redeem the prize?
As long as three lucky symbols are present and the prize hasn't been redeemed, no further tickets can be drawn. The system actively blocks further participation until the lucky symbol win is redeemed or re-rolled.
What does a re-roll cost for the lucky symbols?
Each re-roll costs 6 Dragon Coins. You can re-roll as many times as you like as long as you have 6 DM per attempt.
Can I buy next day's tickets more cheaply?
Yes. The first five tickets for the respective next raffle day can be purchased one day earlier at a discounted price. The new raffle day begins at 04:00 each day.
Do I win something with every ticket?
Yes, every ticket guarantees a win. Either an item that's placed directly in your Item Shop storage, or a lucky symbol for the special draw. There are no losing tickets.
What's the difference between a daily prize and a lucky symbol win?
The daily prize is a special reward tied to specific days of the event and can be drawn directly from a ticket. Lucky symbol wins only occur when three symbols from different tickets have been collected and are then evaluated together.
Where do winning items from the raffle go?
All winning items are automatically placed in the account's Item Shop storage. From there, they can be transferred to regular inventory.
