How to Play
Balthazar's Big Raffle is members-only content, and is not accessible to Ironman players.
Balthazar will be by the Burthorpe lodestone each day for the whole of September, handing out tickets – one per day.
You can get an extra ticket each day by completing a daily challenge, or finding Gilly Willikers the clown. He can be found capering around Misthalin and Asgarnia's lodestones – it's up to you to hunt him down.
Each ticket – when handed in – is a shot at the rare, limited edition prize of the day. If you don't strike it lucky, a consolation prize - a small prismatic star per non-winning ticket - will be yours instead. Awesome if you're getting prepped for Double XP Weekend later in the month!
You can save up tickets if there's a particular prize you've got your eye on, or have a punt each day – the choice is yours.
| Day | Prize | Quantity |
|---|---|---|
| Monday | Spring cleaner, pre-loaded with 250 springs | 5,000 |
| Tuesday | 100 million coins | 100 |
| Wednesday | 5 large protean packs | 30,000 |
| Thursday | 1 portable deposit box | 40,000 |
| Friday | 3 deathtouched darts | 20,000 |
| Saturday | Golden Barrows (Guthan, Ahrim & Verac) | 1,000 of each |
| Sunday | Golden Barrows (Dharok, Karil & Torag) | 1,000 of each |
Throughout September, you’ll also get a Rummage token for every 5 tickets you hand in (cumulatively – not necessarily all at once). You can use these from 1st October, when Balthazar’s Bargain Barrel Blowout begins.
Hand them in - any time in October - and you'll get to rifle through Balthazar's Bargain Barrel, which can yield coins, skilling resources, small protean packs, D&D reset tokens, medium prismatic lamps, or the much-coveted Golden Akrisae Barrows set.
The tokens also get you a pieces of a clown outfit – as sported by Gilly himself. There are five pieces of the outfit to collect.
Enjoy!
Balthazar's Big Raffle provides a daily, digestible slice of RuneScape, even in a busy September. Have fun, and head over to the forums to give us your thoughts.
