Location

The Castle Wars Ticket Exchange is the store where players can purchase items with their accumulated Castle wars tickets and plaudits. The store is owned by Lanthus and is located in the Castle Wars lobby. Most of the items sold there are either for use in the Castle Wars minigame or as a decorative armour, which is equivalent to another set of armour.

Each of the decorative armour pieces have the same stats as another type of armour, except for having less weight.

Total costs

In order to purchase one of each item, a player would need a total of 5,539 tickets. These calculations are excluding time waiting between each game.

  • 1,847 games are needed in the case of both team's scores are tied at any number other than 0 (3 tickets earned). This would take approximately 25.7 days of in-game time.
  • 2,770 games are needed in the case of a loss or if both team's scores are tied at 0-0 (2 tickets earned). This would take approximately 38.5 days of in game-time.

However, in order to buy each item once to complete the collection log, without necessarily keeping any particular items, the player would only need to obtain 800 tickets. The reason for this is that all shop items can be sold back for a full refund of the buying price. The Decorative armour (gold platebody) is the most expensive item, and is priced at 800 tickets. Under these circumstances, the amount of games under the circumstances listed above is reduced to 267 and 400 respectively. This would reduce the total time to obtain each item at least once by a factor of roughly 7, resulting in roughly between 3.7 to 11.1 days, or 89 to 266 hours in total. With the addition of Castle wars supply crate the expected tickets rise even more. Each Castle wars supply crate has a 3/11 chance to get 2 additional Castle wars tickets. Thats why you only need 518 Castle wars tickets and plaudits to get to the 800 tickets if you go on droprate (3584 for keeping every item on the Collection log). This will cut your time down to about 54 to 108 hours depending on your winrate.

After buying the most expensive pieces and selling them back, the player is left with enough tickets to buy every item from the shop to keep, except for the gold and white armour set.
