Among the heroes of Neverwinter, the Tiefling Makos is known for his potent magical abilities. From fending off Valindra’s undead army with his powerful fireball spells to binding the soul of a dracolich to prevents its resurrection, Makos is a master of many magical talents. Starting February 19th, you can enter for a chance to have this mysterious Warlock fight by your side!

From February 19th to February 23rd, we will be holding a raffle each day for adventurers who spend 100,000 or more Astral Diamonds in Neverwinter. The prize for this raffle will be a Makos companion!

    We'd like to know if the companion is BoE or BoP, and if the entry is made per account or per character, please and thank you.

    Some questions answered:
    1) Quick question, in case anyone knows - do purchases made through the Gateway count for this contest?
    They do!

    2) is it one entry per account or can you have one entry per character on the account?
    It's per character. To qualify, the 100k AD needs to be spent on a single character.

    3) It says the timer starts running at 12.00 AM PST each day. Does that include today? Since the event wasn't even "live" yet at that point? I already blew most of my AD before the downtime, and my day's already over.
    The entry period started at midnight 2/19, so even if you spent your AD before maintenance, you're entered!

    4) Okay, if i exchange 100.000 AD to 200 Zen and buy something from these 200 Zen i am in the raffle?
    As long as you spent the 100,000 AD on a single character, you should be fine :)

    5) By the way, Akro. Does the 100k have to be spent on one character/adventurer? Or just across the account?
    It needs to be on a single character.

    So what's to stop someone from buying 200 zen with 100k AD, selling that zen back, then doing it all over again tomorrow?

    I actually like Makos more than I like Knox, but not like this. Maybe if you sell him for 1mill AD I would buy it. I hate lottos. I'll be happy to see more of Makos though.
    Good luck to everyone!

    With a backlog, you'd not be guaranteed to even make those transactions within the allotted time and even if you could, you'd risk losing a profit. In any case, you'd be contributing to the economy anyway, which is a win-win.

    If I buy 200 zen and not spend it, can I get the prize? I need to save my zen for later.

    Thanks, Akro! (And Zeb for the help on the other thread!)

    How do you know if you have actually been entered into the raffle once you have spent over 100k AD?

    Hello Akro, i have a doubt. Transactions made in wondrous Bazar also apply to the sale?

    Well, i am hoping for it to be BtA in the claims vendor, no reason it should be BoE, or BoP, should be available for all toons if one should win. But, that is just my opinion

    That's highly unlikely, considering the fact they've stated you can enter each character on your account for a chance to win.

    Where do you enter the character or is it automatically entered when making the purchase?

    Yes, Wondrous Bazaar counts.

    My method... Buy a Greater Mark of Potency for 100k. Sell it on AH for 99.99k.
    Lose about 8000AD. If you plan to upgrade an enchant anyway, you can just
    bank them each day.

    EDIT:
    Oh, where are the winner announcements?
    Did you really think anyone could steal the power of the god of thieves?
