The Giant’s Vending Machine in Architect: Land of Exiles is the game’s steadiest source of free pulls. It sits in Babylon, runs on its own currency, and pays out mount certificates, costume chests, weapon coupons and upgrade materials without costing a single won. The catch is that the tokens come from ordinary play, so knowing exactly which activities drop them decides how many rolls you get.
Quick answer: Collect Giant’s Vending Machine Tokens from Grand Incursion kills, Trial Gates, Ethereal Sanctum, the Codex, the Adventurers Alliance Guild Coin Shop and regular vending machine rolls, then spend 100 tokens per roll in Babylon.
Giant’s Vending Machine location and roll cost
The machine is an interactable object standing in the town square in Babylon, and you will usually find a crowd of other players parked around it. Interacting with it opens the vending interface, which shows your current token balance at the top and the full reward pool underneath.
Pulls are bought in blocks. Set the counter to the number of rolls you want, press Insert Ticket, then confirm on the dialog that appears. A batch of three rolls costs 300 tokens, which works out to 100 tokens for a single spin. The machine lights up, plays its animation, and hands over the rewards as item cards you can inspect straight away.
A separate regular Vending Machine exists alongside the giant one. Both are covered by an in-game tutorial window titled Vending Machine, which walks through the two locations, the token types and how rewards are handed out.
Where Giant’s Vending Machine Tokens come from
Open the resource details on the token icon and the game lists its sources directly. Nothing here is gated behind spending, and most of it overlaps with content you already run daily.
| Source | What it supplies |
|---|---|
| Grand Incursion Monster Kill Reward | Giant’s tokens |
| Trial Gates | Giant’s tokens |
| Ethereal Sanctum | Giant’s tokens |
| Codex | Giant’s tokens |
| Adventurers Alliance Guild Coin Shop | Giant’s tokens (purchased) |
| Regular Vending Machine rolls | Giant’s tokens as a byproduct |
| Storm Incursion field waves | Standard Vending Machine Tokens |
| Great Deluge (daily, 9PM) | Vending machine tickets |
The two currencies feed each other. Spending normal Vending Machine Tokens on the regular machine generates Giant’s tokens in return, so the standard machine is not a dead end. It is normal to sit on two separate balances, for example 112 normal tokens next to 87 Giant’s tokens, and to grind the cheaper machine purely to build up the giant one.
The Great Deluge opens daily at 9PM and pays out vending machine tickets, and the giant machine’s exchange runs at 9:30PM. Clearing the Deluge first means you walk into the exchange window with a fresh stack.
Farming standard tokens at Storm Incursion waves
If your balance is empty, field incursions are the fastest refill. The route below targets the Scything Barrens portal, but any Storm Incursion marker on the map works the same way.
Giant’s Vending Machine reward list
The reward table is long and scrolls well past the first screen, with drop rates printed next to each entry. These are the headline items.
| Reward | Notes |
|---|---|
| Giant’s Vending Machine Lucky Chest | Top-line chest |
| Eternal Nomad Registration Certificate | Registration item |
| Dawn Eagle Registration Certificate | Registration item |
| Giant’s 4-Star Costume Chest | Costume |
| Phantom Weapon coupons | Weapon exchange |
| Infusion-Cores | Includes 4-star Destruction II |
| Heart of the Star | Upgrade material |
| Relic Selection Chests | Player-picked relic |
| 1-Tier Equipment chests | Gear |
| Stardust | Dropped in 500 stacks |
A typical three-roll batch lands somewhere in the middle of that spread. One run produced a 4-star Infusion-Core of Destruction II, a Giant’s 4-Star Costume Chest and 500 Stardust together, which is a fair picture of what free pulls look like on an average day.
The regular vending machine carries a 0.5 percent chance at a 20-item summon bundle, which is why players keep feeding it rather than hoarding normal tokens.
The jackpot meter and how to read it
Above the reward list sits a special reward counter tied to a specific ticket number. The meter tracks progress toward the 264th ticket, and whoever lands on it claims the jackpot chest. The interface names the winner afterward, so you can see when another player has taken it and the count has reset.
Because the counter is shared and moves whenever anyone spins, there is no way to reserve a position. Watching where the meter sits before you insert tickets is the only practical read you get.
Confirming a roll went through
After you confirm the dialog, the machine plays a light effect and then displays each reward as a separate item card on screen. Anything you receive can be clicked for its full stat sheet before you close the window.
To double-check the transaction, reopen the vending interface. Your token total at the top will have dropped by exactly 100 per roll, and the new items will be sitting in your bag. If the balance has not moved, the confirm step did not register and you can insert tickets again.
Spend tokens as you earn them
Saving up for one enormous session does not improve your odds. A player who banked roughly 25,000 tickets across a month and a half, including 15,200 regular vending machine tickets, opened the lot in batches of 100 and came away without a single Heroic-grade mount or set of wings. The giant machine tickets that followed produced materials and nothing higher.
Rolling in small amounts as tokens arrive gets the same reward pool with none of the storage overhead, and the materials land in your inventory while they are still useful for your current gear tier. Treat the 9:30PM exchange as a daily habit, keep the normal machine ticking over to top up your giant token supply, and the free pulls accumulate on their own.
