    Raffle FAQ

    What are the dates for the raffle and prizes?

    Please take note of the following dates which apply to both the Gleam.io and our part of the raffle:

    Wednesday, 8th October: Start collecting tickets. Wednesday, 5th November: Stop collecting tickets. Winners are determined. Friday, 7th November at the latest: Winners will be contacted by email so they can provide their postal addresses. Wednesday, 12th November (12 PM CET) at the latest: Deadline for replying to the previous email asking for postal addresses. The bundles will then start to be dispatched.

    How will the winners be determined?

    Gleam.io will determine its part of the winners themselves. Gameforge will only receive the email addresses of the 50 winners and contact them accordingly. For our part of the raffle, an internal team will check that participating accounts conform to the necessary criteria and select the remaining 50 winners.

    Which countries can participate in the raffle? Where can bundles be sent?

    Participation is limited to our shipping guidelines. In general that means participation is limited to European countries and those in whose language we publish Metin2:

    • EU countries
    • United Kingdom
    • Switzerland
    • Norway
    • United Arab Emirates

    Countries we cannot send prizes to and are therefore ineligible to participate are:

    • For Turkey details, please check Turkish language news
    • War zones, such as Russia and Ukraine
    • (Distant) territories of the countries mentioned above

    What happens if a winner does not respond before the deadline?

    If a prize winner does not respond with their postal address by Wednesday, 12th November (12 PM CET), we will be unable to send them their bundle and will be forced to disqualify them. If this is a winner of one of the Gaming PC Bundles, we will select a new winner and contact them as described above by Friday ,14th November. We will then wait for a reply until the following Wednesday (19th November, 12 PM CET). For all other winning bundles, we will not choose a new winner if the original winner does not respond. If the substitute winner of a Gaming PC Bundle also fails to respond within the allotted time, we will not choose a further substitute winner.

    What happens if a bundle cannot be delivered?

    If we dispatch a bundle which cannot be delivered for reasons beyond our control, we will not send a replacement. We have had cases in the past, particularly for some of our Turkish players, where bundles containing fan art or electronics could not be delivered because they were stopped at the border.

    What do I need to participate via Gleam.io?

    You only need a name and email address to participate in the Gleam.io campaign. Your Gameforge or Metin2 account are not necessary for participating and collecting tickets. The winners will be determined by Gleam.io and contacted afterwards so they can provide their delivery addresses.

    What do I need to participate via ‘Play Metin2!’?

    For the in-game part of our raffle, you need a Gameforge account and a Metin2 character who can participate in the missions. You receive raffle tickets for completing missions, as well as from Twitch drops. After the event on 5th November there will be a list of all participants and the total number of tickets they’ve collected. This list of participants will be checked according to the following criteria:

    • Gameforge and Metin2 accounts are in good standing (not temporarily or permanently banned when the winners are chosen).
    • The Metin2 account has at least 1 character which has completed the quest ‘The Biologist’s Research (Orc Tooth)’ requiring level 30.

    Do I need to register anywhere?

    You need an account if you intend to participate via Gleam.io, either one you already own or one you newly create. Your Gleam.io account is in no way linked with your Gameforge account; it is a completely separate platform with its own account to which we have no access.

    For in-game participation in the raffle, there is no special registration required. Each ticket you earn via missions or Twitch drops is automatically entered for you.

    Where can I see my tickets from Twitch drops?

    The tickets earned via Twitch are automatically added to your account. You can see how many tickets for ‘Play Metin2!’ you have on the mission website. They do not need to be collected from the item depot. All other rewards earned via Twitch drops must be collected from your item depot in the item shop within 30 days as usual.

  • Whether you’re ready or not, the events preparing for the upcoming update Tyranny of Aamon start today! You can find lots of handy details and links before the big update lands:

    Moonshadow Vale – A New Zone in Yohara

    Twisted trees line the horizon, spectral blue flames flicker in the darkness, and banshee-like creatures haunt the land – welcome to Yohara’s Moonshadow Vale!

    The atmosphere is underlined by a brand-new soundtrack which you can get a taster of here in our trailer:



    Reaching the New Zone:

    • Access via a new teleportal at the western edge of Yilad Pass
    • Requires a character of champion level 10
    • Sung Ma’s Will is more powerful here than ever, with 70 STR, 60 VIT, 70 RES and 80 INT

    New story quests from champion level 4 guide you through existing locations (starting with Dragon Watcher Dolnarr) and leading you step by step into Moonshadow Vale.

    Anyone completing the quest line to the end can even collect two Ritual Stones.


    m2_c5218d9e5519972f852d6f60c709b869.jpg

    Metin of Moonlight

    The new Metin of Moonlight shines in the silvery shine of the moon. But be careful! Shattering the stone has a chance to summon forth the Cursed Soul Harvester!

    This boss is bound to the Metin, and if you remove yourself too far, he will disappear. But defeat him, and you can look forward to fantastic rewards such as Reinforce Item, Enchant Item or the Blessing Marble.


    m2_85137f7b10ca397daaf444a41f5498a4.jpg

    The Altar of Nykos

    In the northern area of Moonshadow Vale, you’ll find the mysterious Altar of Nykos. Here you can offer up the Soul Shards you have looted in the region.

    Collect enough and together with your group you can summon the powerful new world boss Nykos. If you manage to defeat him, you can enjoy Monster Cards, valuable crafting materials, scrolls to summon the Metin of Moonlight, and more. Hint: The player who performs the summoning will receive additional rewards, so make sure to choose an honourable captain, or take turns to perform the ritual.


    m2_dd1c0acdf23960d97c4d62881ec3fb99.jpg

    Azphirna, Queen of the Banshees

    The open world of Moonshadow Vale is oft haunted by Azphirna, Queen of the Banshees. She is the only opponent who can drop all five types of Soul Shard required to summon Nykos, as well as very rare crafting materials.


    m2_53500a068d11b74089c1dea3c6a4b81d.jpg

    And that’s only the beginning...

    All these and many more highlights await you in Moonshadow Vale!

    On 15th October, we’ll have more details on the two new dungeons in Moonshadow Vale for you. In both the Depths of Greed (open dungeon within the map) and the Heart of Greed (instanced dungeon) you can loot materials for new items. Then on 22nd October, there’ll be additional info on the various new items you can look forward to in the upcoming update.


    m2_ca8ea1c099a49c83a62acef0d10d6148.jpg

  • The second week of update previews is here! Look forward to more exciting missions and tasks in which you have a chance to win various prizes including two gaming PCs worth more than €2000 each – plus we’re presenting not one, but two brand-new dungeons!

    As with the details on Moonshadow Vale last week, we also have some new soundtracks to the new dungeons. Listen to them in our dungeon preview trailer here:


    Depths of Greed

    In the east of Moonshadow Vale, you’ll find the entrance to the Depths of Greed, an open dungeon which you can also enter without a group.

    The dungeon has two levels, where a steep descent halfway through leads you even deeper into the Depths of Greed. Battling your way through the winding cave passages, you’ll encounter monsters rewarding precious experience, Yang and items. But keep your wits about you! From time to time, an Omen of Greed will appear, and each player who contributes to destroying it receives a buff effect for 30 minutes.

    On your journey you must be very careful – the caves are guarded by Kalgaroth the Slayer. If you defeat him, you have a chance to loot the Key to the Heart. Using this item you can pass through the Gate of Greed at the deepest point of the dungeon.


    m2_835f9d28037112c46e499226e4a62240.jpg

    Heart of Greed

    The Heart of Greed holds the inner sanctum of Aamon the Nightscourge – the driving force behind all the evil in update 25.2!

    In order to enter you must meet the following requirements:

    • Three keys
    • Group of 4–8 players
    • Complete the entry quest

    Before reaching the inner sanctum, you must cut your way through Aamon’s minions. The more you leave alive, the more will reappear during the final battle, so make sure you thin their ranks as much as possible!

    At the sanctum itself, you’ll first encounter Nezerath, Aamon’s lackey. Before you can be granted an audience with Aamon, you must first prove your worth and take Nezerath down. But beware! Every time fresh minions appear he will become invulnerable, so deal with these first so you can finish him off.


    m2_4a2bbaba8753525ea2e0bd35296d39e4.jpg


    Aamon the Nightscourge is the ultimate source of evil you must face in this new expansion. Even if you defeat him now, the results of his malicious deeds will remain with us in the world of Metin2 into the future.

    During the battle against him, you must pay attention to his Moonshadow Curse, as each death among your group adds one to the count. Once it reaches a critical level, you can cleanse it, otherwise it will become ever more difficult to defeat Aamon!

    But even setting this mechanic aside, Aamon will put you through the wringer, and you will need at least 3 heroes working hard together before you can deal the final blow.


    m2_97dfeb591e28f5d6263c28983ae164d4.jpg

    Rewards

    After defeating Aamon, each player can loot a treasure chest which contains several possible items in reward.

    Of course there will be numerous new and valuable crafting materials to collect or new spirit stones to equip. Yang and Orisons can also be obtained from Aamon’s treasures.

    Among the unique items, you can find Nezerath’s Head, an accessory which provides various bonuses when worn. You could also loot Aamon’s Egg, which will hatch an evolved pet (skills: Vampirism, Drill, Monster Hunter, Bulwark, Immortal).


    m2_cedfeff8397a6e61d2e068a515a16886.jpg

    And Much More

    Naturally there is even more to loot from these encounters than we have listed here. We will present the latest equipment items and systems in next week’s preview (22nd October)!


    m2_f3bdc7945b8f0d29f37e23551f73f5ea.jpg

  • The third week of update previews is here! Look forward to more exciting missions and tasks in which you have a chance to win various prizes including two gaming PCs worth €2,400 each – plus today we’re presenting the new Moonshine gear!|


    Check out our trailer in keeping with this week’s preview:



    Here’s a reminder of the most important links on the current events:

    Moonshine Weapons

    When exploring Moonshadow Vale, you’ll have a chance to craft the new Moonshine weapons, which surpass all previous weapons in terms of power. These will help you to master all the new challenges awaiting you in this and future updates.

    Collect materials from the monsters in the Vale and from the new Depths of Greed and Heart of Greed to craft these powerful weapons.

    As before, these weapons can have up to 3 random bonuses. But if you upgrade your crafted weapons up to +10, they will become more powerful by increasing your attack and skill range to even more devastating effect!

    Moonshine Boots

    In addition to the new weapons, you can also craft the new Moonshine Boots. As with the weapons, you’ll first have to scour Moonshadow Vale and enter the new dungeons to gather all the materials necessary to craft them.

    The new boots have up to three usable sockets in which you can insert spirit stones specifically designed for boots. The Moonshine Boots also have a fixed ‘strength against monsters’ bonus and up to 1 random additional bonus.

    New Spirit Stones for Boots

    Until now, it wasn’t possible to socket boots with spirit stones, but with the introduction of Moonshine Boots we’ll be adding new spirit stones to the game which are exclusive to boots.

    Existing boots will also be able to benefit from these new spirit stones, as you will have the ability to unlock up to two sockets on older boots!

    Adding sockets to boots requires the Black Diamond Drill which can be looted in the Depths of Greed.

    The new spirit stones can provide a mixture of existing bonuses, such as various resistances, but also a new bonus which can put monsters in a Confused state.

    Merc & Monster Card Improvements

    • Despatch your mercs into Moonshadow Vale and the new dungeons to earn new reward chests with handy items.
    • Collect new Monster Cards with some of the new enemies who you will encounter in this new region – including Aamon himself!

    Prepare Yourself!

    If this preview has whet your appetite for battle and you’re chomping at the bit for a chance to explore Moonshadow Vale with your friends, but still don’t have a character who meets all the requirements, don’t worry, we have the perfect solution to hand.

    In the next update preview we’ll be sharing details on the upcoming new servers on which you can level up your characters far faster than usual, ensuring you’ll be in the starting blocks ready to get straight into the action.


    We’ll be releasing more details on 29th October, so stay tuned!
