To enter the winter event @go xmas and walk to the blue portal which is waiting for you (xmas 128, 165).

In this event you have to kill several monster waves before they destroy the emperium.
Necessary:
- teamplay!
- teamplay!!
- teamplay!!!

If you are not yet clear about how and when to trigger the special (forest) wave of monsters, please refrain from entering the west gate near the Emperium. Wait for other players to trigger that wave, and only enter the forest after you see the announcement: “A horde is nearing from the forest!”

In this event, your objective is to defeat several waves of monsters before they can destroy the Emperium. For helpful tips, refer to Elisia's General Autocasting Guide. Note that some skills are disabled during this event.

Disabled Items

• All MVP cards
• Episode 20 cards
• Storm Gust Scroll (14513)
• Sienna Execrate Scroll (23194)

Monster waves will appear simultaneously from the south and east. There are barricades separating them from the Emperium, located in the southern, eastern, and central areas. The best way to deal with the waves is to eliminate all monsters before they reach the barricades. There are 10 waves total, each subsequent wave gets stronger. All mobs are plant protocol, meaning they only take 1 damage from all sources. Their HP scales with the number of participating players.

Mobs can inflict chaos, crystallization, and freezing. To avoid freezing, use the Marc Card (4105) . To avoid chaos, use Giearth Card (4087) or Intrepid Giearth Card (300236) . High VIT reduces the duration of crystallization.

Important: If there are Mystcases in a wave, prioritize them. They self-destruct in an AoE explosion that one-shots the Emperium, barricades, and nearby players.
Amount of healing on barricades is limited to one HP per cast (use turbo here for quick spam).

The special forest wave is both risky and rewarding. Unlike other waves, there are no barricades to protect the Emperium from monsters. This wave also includes Mystcases that can destroy the Emperium in a single explosion. However, summoning this wave is necessary to obtain the Winter Event Box (41026) reward.

Only summon the forest wave if you see enough players around ready to defend the west gate and protect or heal the Emperium, and only summon if this has been previously agreed upon in the map chat.

You can summon the forest wave once the 3rd wave is announced, or at any time later but only until the final 10th wave is announced. The most common tactic is to summon it as soon as possible, once enough players gather near the west gate.

The wave is triggered by exiting town through the west gate into the forest. Only a player who has previously won the event can trigger the forest wave. Once a player triggers the wave, the Lumberjack NPC in the forest announces the player's name, so the player takes responsibility. Please, coordinate with everyone in map chat first before triggering it!

Everyone in the event receives the participation reward: 15x GemCoin (50000) and 5x Event Coin (25655) . This is a default reward available regardless of the outcome, everyone gets it even if the defense fails.

By defeating 10 waves from the south and east, players earn 50x GemCoin (50000) and 25x Event Coin (25655) .

To receive the Winter Event Box (41026) , players must additionally summon and defeat the special forest wave, usually triggered after the wave 2, then defeat the remaining south and east waves. Winter Event Box (41026) contains random rewards, including the winter event costumes.

Good luck hunting for costumes, everyone!~
