Festival Prize

A present-like prize that can be exchanged for 25 Festival Tickets by Kao Tseng when the Shing Jea Boardwalk is open. A number of them also appear in inventory of every player in the current district of the Shing Jea Monastery during Dragon Festival finale events in case of victory against the "enemy."

Opening the prize has a chance of giving one of the following:


 * 5 Victory Tokens (40% Chance)
 * Red Bean Cake (30% Chance)
 * Bottle of Rice Wine (25% Chance)
 * 1 Platinum (5% Chance)

Caution: Boardwalk Prizes do not give miniature pets or unique weapons (such as a non-existent 'Mhenlo's Staff'). Some people are attempting to sell prizes for large amounts of gold claiming you can get one.

Other names
After the Dragon Festival 2006 the left-over Festival Prizes have been renamed to Boardwalk Prizes as of Oct. 20, 2006. Festival and Boardwalk Prizes offered a different selection of rewards at the time, and were available during different Boardwalk events.

In the Dragon Festival 2007 redux, these prizes were (incorrectly) spelled "Fesitval Prizes", and they were assigned to the players near whom they were dropped, which means they cannot be picked up by other players before their assignation expires.

As of the Third Birthday Event in 2008, the prizes are known as Festival Prizes during all Boardwalk events.

Prices
The prizes themselves, or the items obtained by opening them, can be traded between players. Some items can also be sold to a merchant for a set price. Based on this fact, each prize has an average "street value" in gold.
 * 1 The street value of tokens is based on the standard trade offer of 25–35 per token (based on the experience of several years of festivals). The tokens have no value to merchants.
 * 2 The average street value is the per prize gold you can expect to earn after opening hundreds of them. Your values will differ.

When exchanging prizes for Festival Tickets from Kao Tseng:


 * 1 Festival Ticket = 15
 * 1 Festival Prize = 25 Festival Tickets = 375

For maximum gold profit, sell the Festival Tickets back to the vendor. The profit then is 375 for 25 tickets as opposed to the average value of 220 for the Festival Prize.
