Christmas Special Event
This Christmas we have a special line up of interesting mini quests, all connected to an overarching plot –Santa#DY#s missing reindeer! These quests should cater to different play styles, and be interesting to all.
But Santa won#DY#t trust anyone until they#DY#ve proven they#DY#re a good person. You#DY#ll have to bring three lost presents back to Santa by completing the mini quests. Once you#DY#ve earned his trust, Santa will let you find his reindeer (and maybe even ride it home!)
Talk to the angelic messenger who watches over Santa to initiate a quest. Then, when you#DY#ve accumulated three presents, talk to Santa himself! |
Sugarplum Sing Star
|
 You can earn presents by singing with the sugarplum fairies! These tiny cuties hide in Christmas trees, and only come out when someone brings their favourite candy! Luckily, the grocer Lana in Cronus is stocked with enough sweet goodies to cater to even the fussiest of fairies!
Speak to The grocer, Lana, buy some candies and go in search of the nearestgreen Christmas Tree.
When the fairy comes out, talk to it and ask to sing. All you have to do is follow the fairy#DY#s lead. If you can choose the next line in the song, you#DY#ll get a present. |
Taking Out The Gnomish Trash!
Santa#DY#s cheap quality toys have been putting local gnomish craftsmen out of jobs! They just can#DY#t compete with Santa#DY#s toy-making expertise!
So, they invaded the workshop and are staging a coup! Luckily, the fairies came out to aid Santa, and are locked in battle as we speak! |
|
 Talk to the angel, travel to the gnomish invasion map and join the battle. Please lend a hand and frag a few naughty gnomish invaders for ol#DY# Santa! Don#DY#t feel bad, those gnomes are rotten to the core! But be careful not to harm the fairies. They#DY#re on your side!
Once you#DY#re done, talk to the guard to exit the map and claim your present! |
Frosty#DY#s Just Chillin#DY#
Ever wondered why snowmen look so frosty? It#DY#s because they#DY#re literally freezing to death out there! And when frost giants attack and steal the firewood, there#DY#s a crisis on our hands!
Help light fires for the snowmen!
First, you#DY#ll have to kill some frost giants and collect their stolen firewood. But beware! The frost giants are really tough, so if you#DY#re a little green behind the ears, you might want to show the better part of valor (high tail it outta there)!
Once you#DY#ve got three pieces of firewood, run into the snowman circle. Then open your inventory and right click on one of the logs. You#DY#ll light a blazing campfire for the snowmen (don#DY#t get burned), and receive their gratitude.
Once you claim your present, speak to the guard outside his igloo, and travel back to Cronus.
Runaway Reindeer
Once you#DY#ve got three presents you#DY#ve earned Santa#DY#s trust. You can collect presents from any quest you like, so you might need to come back tomorrow and redo an easy quest if your low-level.
Santa will tell you to look for the fox and the hunters. Luckily, these hunters are pretty easy to find. Just follow the main road out of Cronus to the south. At the crossroads near windmill town you#DY#ll see a pack of hungry hunters and the cutest little baby fox.
First, you#DY#ll have to talk to a bunch of them (the hunters and the baby fox). They just love skinning foxes and selling sable.
But hey, it#DY#s Christmas! Are you going to let a little animal cruelty stand in the way of your festivities? No way! |
Talk to the baby fox and then the hunter leader. You#DY#ll be able to buy the fox#DY#s mother back, then return her to her baby.
The baby fox then tells you where he saw the reindeer! (no spoilers here, sorry) |
First, go and find the Forest Spirit (sometimes known as the puppet), and ask him about calling the reindeer. Unfortunately, this lost reindeer is a timid thing and won#DY#t come out! You#DY#ll have to ask the Forest Spirit how to lure the reindeer out. (no spoilers)
Just to the south of him, you#DY#ll find a shining spot where the reindeer can be lured out.
Go back to Santa Clause, tell him what you have found and you will be rewarded.
