Reward tickets are special items you can earn in Xenoblade Chronicles X that allow you to redeem prizes. They are rewarded for completing certain quests and challenges. Here is a quick overview of reward tickets in Xenoblade X and what you can do with them:

- Finding them as collectibles
- Completing combat trials/challenges
- Finishing squad tasks
- Opening treasure chests
- Defeating unique monsters
Story and affinity missions will generally reward green reward tickets. Leveling up BLADE divisions gives division reward tickets. Exploration and challenge rewards yield silver and gold tickets. So make sure to do a variety of content to earn all the different ticket colors.
Reward Ticket Types
There are five colors of reward tickets, each with increasing rarity:
- Green – Common
- Blue – Uncommon

Higher tier tickets can be traded for better rewards. Gold tickets are the rarest and most valuable. Green tickets are common and easiest to acquire.

- Deliverance Koo – Administrative District
- Hope Alanzi – Commercial District
- Chausson – Industrial District
- Casara Koo – Residential District

Each NPC specializes in different types of rewards. Deliverance Koo trades support items, Hope Alanzi has fashion gear, Chausson has vehicle parts, Casara Koo has materials, and Maria Caraway offers BLADE rewards.
Best Items to Get with Reward Tickets
Here are some of the most useful and valuable rewards you can trade your tickets for:
Reward Item | NPC | Ticket Cost |
---|---|---|
Ares 90 Skell License | Maria Caraway | 1 Gold Ticket |
Type-ZERO Skell License | Maria Caraway | 1 Silver Ticket |
BLADE Wings | Maria Caraway | 2 Silver Tickets |
BLADE Emblem | Maria Caraway | 1 Silver Ticket |
1000% EXP Booster | Deliverance Koo | 1 Silver Ticket |
Ares 70 Armor | Chausson | 1 Gold Ticket |

What Not to Get with Reward Tickets
Here are some less efficient uses of your reward tickets:
- Basic crafting materials – You can farm these easily
- Basic combat gear – Will become outclassed quickly
- Basic healing items – Can be purchased cheaply
- BLADE medals – Have limited uses
- Visual customization items – Purely cosmetic
- Common blades – Easily obtained from cores
Focus on spend tickets on rare drops and items difficult to obtain otherwise. Avoid “junk” rewards that provide only minor short-term benefits.
Saving Reward Tickets
Since reward tickets don’t expire, it can be smart to save up rarer tickets instead of spending them right away. That way you can redeem them for the best rewards later in the game when new items and licenses unlock. Some recommendations:
- Save gold/silver tickets for end-game gear
- Only spend purple/blue tickets on gear better than what you have
- Hold onto 2-3 advancement tickets for affinity bursts
- Keep 1-2 storage expansion tickets for when you need more room
Just be sure not to hit the reward ticket inventory cap. Make sure to redeem tickets before you would waste any from going over the limit.
Getting the Most Out of Reward Tickets
To maximize the value you get from spending reward tickets in Xenoblade Chronicles X:
- Redeem tickets at NPCs that offer rewards at your current progression level.
- Use lower value tickets first so you can save up rare ones.
- Hold out for rewards that are substantial upgrades over your current gear.
- Think ahead to items that will be useful down the road.
- Look up guides to see the most efficient ticket exchanges.
- Don’t waste tickets on common items you can easily grind for.
Following these tips will help ensure you get great use out of the reward tickets you earn during your adventures in Xenoblade X!
