Once the entry period ends, winners are selected at random. Players can then return to the Merchant to check results and claim.

  • Winning Tickets: Gold is claimable from winning tickets (1 Gold per winning ticket).
  • Non-Winning Tickets: 50% of materials are available to reclaim (95% for tickets bought before this update).
