Entering the Shadow Lottery gives players a chance to join the Shadows faction in Diablo Immortal, but there are steps to complete after winning.
The Shadow Lottery is an event that takes place several times a day in Diablo Immortal, and the winner has a chance to join the Shadow faction. The Shadow Lottery can be entered by visiting the Westmarch Tavern in Rakkis Plaza on the other side of the building where the Apprentice Jeweler is. There are a few requirements that need to be met before players can speak to the Mysterious Patron and gain access to the Shadow Lottery.
To unlock the option of entering the Shadow Lottery, a character will need to reach level 43 and complete the main questline in Bilefen. Once the story in Bilefen concludes, players can visit the Mysterious Patron in Westmarch at 12 pm, 6 pm, or 9 pm local server time to participate in the Shadow Lottery event in Diablo Immortal. If chosen as a winner, the character will need to prove their worth in a series of trials and receive Akeba’s Signet. After passing the trials, Akeba’s Signet can be presented to the Mysterious Patron to become a Shadow.
At any of the three specified times, speaking to the Mysterious Patron will give players the option to enter the Shadow Lottery. There are a limited number of spots available, so players should get to the Mysterious Patron as early as possible. Once it starts, the Shadow Lottery will last one hour, then a notice will be sent via the mail. The notice will indicate if players have won or lost the Shadow Lottery. Winners will be able to speak to the Mysterious Patron to start the Shadow Mettle event in Diablo Immortal. If players lost, they can try again by entering the Shadow Lottery at the next available time. There’s no limit to how many times players can participate in the Shadow Lottery.
How To Become A Shadow In Diablo Immortal
The trials that must be completed before becoming a Shadow are meant to introduce players to the activities that will be available to help them increase their rank later on. Once the Shadow Mettle questline is started, players will need to speak to Bartender Bailey to continue the mission, then enter the Court of Whispers past the Mysterious Patron. The Path of Blood is the first trial, and players just need to clear the floor of all enemies.
Next, players need to complete a dungeon area in Diablo Immortal known as the vault. Inside, players will need to collect at least 30 Essentia from fallen enemies while trying not to let the Warden alert the Immortals. After successfully completing the second trial, players will need to face three Ancient Champions. The Ancient Champions don’t start attacking all at once, but if they aren’t killed quick enough, they can all be active at the same time. They should be fairly easy to defeat as long as players dodge their heavy attacks.
After defeating the Ancient Champions, a chest will appear containing Akeba’s Signet, as well as a few random rewards. Akeba’s Signet can then be turned in by speaking to the Mysterious Patron. After becoming a Shadow, players can still enter the Shadow Lottery to get more Akeba’s Signets that can be used to invite friends in Diablo Immortal to the Shadow faction. If the Shadow Mettle questline is repeated, players will only need to defeat the Ancient Champions again.
Diablo Immortal is available for PC, Android, and iOS.
