- A new gaming craze is sweeping the realms. Trifecta has finally arrived! A card game of chance with fabulous prizes awaits the adventurous. Dealers (named "Trifecta Dealer") have appeared in the capital cities (Classic, Shrouded Isles and Catacombs) as well as in the realm festivals. Try your luck today and see if you can get a Trifecta and win the big prizes! (Prizes are awarded randomly based on the number of matches made. Prizes and chances of winning are subject to change at any time. Celebrity voices were impersonated. Void where prohibited. Prohibited where void.) (You will love the prizes!)
- The Rules of Trifecta: Trifecta is a game of chance where the player is shown three decks of cards and chooses one from each of the decks. The decks are then shuffled and a card at random is chosen from each deck. If the player's choice and the card drawn match, they have a match. Players earn a random prize based on the number of cards matched. There are three tiers of prizes based on one match, two matches, or matching all three; referred to as a Trifecta. Each tier awards a random prize from a pool for that tier. The value of the prizes for each tier is based on how hard it would be to achieve that tier. To play, a character need only buy a token from the dealer and give the token to the dealer when they are ready to start. (Dealers also offer the rules of the game and a list of possible prizes.)

1/324 chance of getting tier3 item.
tier 3 items can be either weapon dyes or respec stones.
lets use 7 diff weapon dyes + 3 diff respec stones you are looking at 1/1080 odds of winning any sort of respec stone. roughly 1.080 plat per stone. of course this is subject to luck could be more could be less. gogo pendragon testing at 3am after you get off work ><
