Hi, thanks GGG for the event! Every location is really fun with all these multiple mods. Would like to see them in standard, in the future.

now a question:

if i play only ONE character, and for example, i bring it to 95, do i have the chance to win only a single prize, or multiple ones in case i get lucky, for each prize subcategory?

How do you roll the names of the winning players for each prize pool? Excluding the players that already won something, or you just roll the names, and after that roll a prize for them?

because i get the sensation that higher lvl characters get yes only one prize, but multiple rolls in case the higher prize fails, and i would like to receive an official confirmation on this, as it would greatly influence the time i will dedicate to this event.

here are some possible ways on how prizes will be rolled.

Case A:

-at the end of the event you roll the lvl 95 prizes, you get the winner names,
-then proceed to roll the lvl 85 prizes, you select the winners, among whom there are also lvl 95 players that didn't win anything yet,
-then proceed to roll the lvl 75 prizes, you select the winners, among whom there are also lvl 95 and 85 players who didn't win anything yet.
-and so on, till all prizes are rolled. this would mean a lvl 95 char gets, if he doesn't win the upper prizes, a roll for each prize category, thus a much higher chance to win some prize.

Case B:
-the above, but in reverse, you start from the bottom prizes, in which lvl 95 players are also included, and exclude players that already won something.
-in this case an unlucky lvl 95 player could be selected for a lvl 45 prize, and be excluded for the lvl 95 prize. While the last lvl 95 prizes will be given out to lvl 95 chars that didn't win anything yet.

Case C:
-You can indeed win multiple prizes, meaning a lvl 95 character keeps staying in the lower prize lists even if he won some of the upper prizes.


Could you also please add the answer to the FAQs?

We will also be awarding the prizes below based on your character level at the end of the event. For example, if you reach level 85 with one character you would be in the draw to win any of the prizes from the level 45-85 range. You can win more than one prize per account.

yeah i have already read that, but it doesn't actually answer my question.
it says "more than one prize per account", not per character. that's the ambiguity that i'm trying to have answered. it could just mean that if you have more characters you can win more than one prize, which has been said multiple times. What's unanswered is if a SINGLE character can win multiple prizes.
