Christmas Event Details

[Lone]

it deserves its own thread

The event will contain the following:-

Maps
4 Individual Snow Maps,
1 for levels 1 - 44
1 for levels 45 - 59
1 for levels 60+
1 which will be the map that gets the invasions. You will have access to this map all the time but it will only receive invasion mobs and then reward spawns for completing the invasion.

Invasions will consist of 6 Different Ice Related Monsters and a Big Boss (which might not invade until a little closer to christmas - but you never know)

You will also Find ReinDeer, ChristmasTrees and Turkeys to kill around Mir, Which will be dropping you Present boxes. (These aren't as hard as the HighRate/MedRate event mobs for anyone concerned)

Double click the Present box to get your reward.

Baubles
There will be Different Baubles dropping ingame from both Boxes and Christmas trees, these are very useful - you will need some of these to gain access to the Level Specific Snow Maps.

You will also have a couple of Special Baubles which will need to be traded to one of the event NPCs to get 1 of 3 Special Rings.

There are 2 different kits available in the event which consist of;
Weapon
Armour
Helmet
Boots
Belt
Rings
Braces
Necklace
Stone
Medal

There is 1 kit for low levels (Crimbo Items) and 1 for higher levels (Christmas Items) - the items increase in stats as you level (like Heaven Items)

There will be an NPC to trade the items from the Lower level items to the Higher level items - at the cost of ChristmasPresents

The event items will be in game until the first reboot in the new year, due to the nature of the items they will be removed so as not to ruin the economy in game.

Mob Info

Reindeer/Turkeys -
you will need to harvest these mobs, to get to their drops.

Christmas Trees -
These are interesting mobs - as in they dont have HP instead they require a certian amount of hits before they fall over (assume your a lumberjack) the faster you swing the faster they fall over.

Additional Info
Santa will be stopping in different towns during the Christmas period to give out presents - There will be a global shout when he's ready and waiting for you, so look out for them.
You will have to locate a decidely chilly gentleman named Joey - listen carefully to what he has to say
A free event pet is availble from the starter npc - note that this is NOT a fox

Damn, I was looking forward to watching the top 200 rerun films from 1930's to 1970's on TV but I will have to play this now

Looks very well thought out once again. Missed the last two events so looking forward to this one

Nice going team!

There was a few people in game that were asking things that are written on the first post of this thread, I suggest that you read it as it gives info that may help you.

Note that the download on this link - http://www.mirrevenge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=15301
has to be done if you wish to go to the SnowMap. The maps have been broken into levels but you CANNOT get there by speaking to the Soldier NPC in BW - He will take you to an empty event map that ISN'T being used for this event.

SnowMapTeleport

When you decide to use this scroll - Pump it in town (any town you like) Don't use it from your GT

You will not be given a TT or GTT when you use this to tele to the SnowMap so don't forget to take one!

[Lone]

when getting teled into the snow map from either scroll or From martha you should be getting a timed recall (5minutes from scroll/30minutes from Martha) But as Ares said if you dont intend to stay that long, you must take a tt!

[Ares]

Harvesting Reindeer and Turkeys

Make sure you kill it in a free area, thats no mob on it on or one space all the way around it other wise you will NOT be able to harvest it and you will lose the drop. People are still 'ruining' these drops and asking questions - is a screenie needed to make it clear as to what we mean?

[browney]

this may sound REALLY weird.
are there going to be scheduled stops by santa or random? xD
