How to snipe the jackpot in Children’s Festival 2025

Seasonal events in Infinity Kingdom, like the ongoing Children’s Day Celebration, offer unique ways to earn powerful rewards. Among these, the most sought-after is the Jackpot Reward from the Treasure Hunter feature. This system appears regularly in seasonal events, and while it’s often overlooked or misunderstood, with the right strategy you can snipe the jackpot—even as a free or light spender.

On Season 1 servers, the jackpot consists of 60x Shadow/Holy Selection Chests, while Chaos-enabled servers receive 80x Chaos Selection Chests—a truly massive prize that can accelerate your immortal progress drastically.

This guide will explain in detail how the system works, the odds involved, and a proven strategy to snipe these jackpot rewards using patience, timing, and in-game observation.

TL;DR

  • Jackpot = 60x Holy/Shadow chests (S1) or 80x Chaos chests (Conquest servers)
  • Only 3 jackpots per 3,000 items
  • It’s all about timing, not money

Understanding the Treasure Hunter System

Each round of the Treasure Hunter has a fixed pool of 3,000 items shared across your server group. This pool is made up of three item tiers:

Bottom Tier (Common Items)

These items are extremely common and make up the bulk of the pool:

  • Random elemental immortal fragments (540 total)
  • Small Dragon Crystal chests (168 total)

Middle Tier (Uncommon Rewards)

Less common, but still decently likely to pull:

  • Unique Artifact Schematics (30 total)
  • Cao Cao Fragments
  • Large Dragon Crystal Selection Chests
  • Immortal Selection Chests (e.g. Alexander)

Top Tier (Rare Jackpot Items)

These are the true high-value rewards:

  • 60x Shadow/Holy Selection Chests (S1 servers) or 80x Chaos Selection Chests (Conquest servers) — only 3 total
  • 5 Unique Artifact Fragments (Holy/Shadow or Chaos)
  • 4 Random Immortal Fragments (Holy/Shadow or Chaos)

With just 3 jackpot items in a 3,000-item pool, your base odds are 0.1%. However, these odds improve over time as other players pull and drain lower-tier items.

TL;DR

  • Pool: 3,000 total items per round
  • Jackpot odds start at 0.1%, increase as pool is drained
  • Common items dominate early draws

The Strategy: How to Snipe the Jackpot

The key to success is timing your pulls to when the jackpot odds are most favorable.

Step 1: Monitor the Jackpot Count

Check how many jackpot items are left in the current pool. If all 3 are gone, the pool resets. If only 1 remains, stay alert.

Step 2: Track the Pool Count

You can see how many items remain in the pool. As this number gets lower, your chances improve dramatically.

  • At 3,000 items: ~0.1% odds
  • At 1,000 items: ~0.15% odds

Step 3: Wait for Ideal Conditions

If 1 jackpot is left and fewer than 80 items remain, prepare to start pulling and make sure you have a bank of wishes so you can finish the pool if “unlucky”.

Step 4: Draw Quickly

Start drawing when the pool hits 60–50 remaining items. DO NOT draw manually (use multi-draw!) you may be reading other guides telling you to avoid wasting pulls after the jackpot drops, but for this sniping we need speed a lot more than we need to not waste a draw or two. As it pool gets to very low number of items, you speed through draws to snipe the jackpot.

Step 5: Monitor & Repeat

If someone else snipes the jackpot before you, the pool resets and you start tracking again.

TL;DR

  • Start pulling at 50–60 remaining items with 1 jackpot left
  • Always use fast multi-draws during sniping window
  • Jackpot pulls cause instant reset

Real Example: Children’s Festival Jackpot Sniping

During the ongoing Children’s Day event, players received Resonance Crystals from:

  • Battle Pass
  • Free Celebration Shop rewards

One player used only these free and pass-earned crystals to participate. By tracking pool drops and watching for low-count jackpot opportunities, they were able to pull 3 jackpots in only 50 draws total.

This demonstrates that success doesn’t require heavy spending—only dedication and smart timing.

TL;DR

  • 3 jackpots pulled with 50 draws
  • No additional purchases beyond Battle Pass
  • Patience and timing = success

Additional Tips for Jackpot Hunters

  • Have time ready: You may need to monitor the event for long stretches
  • Be patient: RNG is random—some rounds will reset early, others give chances late
  • Avoid overcommitting: Never burn all crystals in one go without watching the pool

TL;DR

  • Time > money
  • Track manually
  • Be ready to adapt quickly

Why Jackpot Sniping Knowledge Is Essential for Every Seasonal Event in Infinity Kingdom

If you’ve just learned how to snipe the jackpot in the Children’s Day Celebration event, congratulations—you’ve unlocked one of the most powerful techniques in all of Infinity Kingdom. But here’s the real kicker: this isn’t just useful for one event.

In fact, once you understand how Treasure Hunter jackpot sniping works, you can apply that same knowledge to every seasonal event moving forward.

Same Mechanics, Different Skin

Whether it’s the Spring Festival, Halloween Spree, Anniversary Carnival, or any other seasonal celebration, Infinity Kingdom reuses the same exact Treasure Hunter system. The interface might change, the event currency may have a new name, and the rewards might be themed differently—but the mechanics remain identical:

  • 3,000 items per round
  • 3 jackpot prizes
  • Fixed item counts for all rewards
  • Shared cross-server pool
  • Jackpot causes an instant reset

This consistency means once you’ve mastered the art of timing your pulls, monitoring the remaining item count, and jumping in when odds are optimal, you can rinse and repeat your way to massive long-term gains.

The Jackpot Is Always Worth It

Depending on your server stage, the top-tier prize will vary:

  • Season 1 servers: 60x Shadow/Holy Selection Chests
  • Conquest servers: 80x Chaos Selection Chests (far more valuable)

These jackpots are game-defining. Getting even one or two over the course of an event can power up a full new immortal, supercharge an element build, or complete an artifact breakthrough. When you learn to snipe successfully, you’re not relying on luck—you’re stacking the odds in your favor and bypassing the spending curve entirely.

Knowledge That Pays Off Repeatedly

Each seasonal event typically lasts 10–14 days and has multiple jackpot rounds. Multiply that across all major events throughout the year, and you get several dozen sniping opportunities annually. Now imagine walking away with 5, 10, or even 15 jackpots over time.

This knowledge literally compounds in value the longer you play.

The True Power: Non-Whales Keeping Up

For low- or mid-spenders, jackpot sniping is one of the few tools that can let you fight above your weight. Whales will always have more resources, but they often spend fast and early, not strategically. If you’re patient and observant, you can end up walking away with the jackpot that they missed by being too hasty.

What to Expect in Future Events

So far, the Treasure Hunter system has remained unchanged across every seasonal event that used it. That means in future events, you should expect:

  • Different event currency (e.g., Lanterns, Candy, Fireworks, etc.)
  • Updated pool visuals and themes
  • New artifact or fragment jackpot rewards (sometimes exclusive)
  • The exact same jackpot logic and pool behavior

Final Words

Learning to snipe jackpots in Treasure Hunter isn’t just a fun trick—it’s a core player skill. Master it once, and you’ll be harvesting jackpot rewards every few months as seasonal events roll through.

Track the pool. Wait for the low counts. Draw fast. Get rewarded.

Next time a seasonal event hits Norheim, you’ll already be ahead of the game.
