Overview
During Winter Events, mysterious glowing presents appear throughout Paragon City and the Rogue Isles, courtesy of Gamester.
Upon opening a present, a hero or villain would find that if they were "nice," they would enjoy a nice reward. If they were "naughty," however, they would find themselves surrounded by the Winter Horde, ready to make their holidays downright dangerous!
Gamester's Presents
"Nice" rewards can include additional instances of the Mystery Gift, Present inspirations, or pieces of Candy Cane Salvage, or sometimes a Present and a Candy Cane.
"Naughty" spawns can include the Winter Lord Giant Monster from the Winter Event 2004. Spawning the Winter Lord is based on team size, and requires teams of five or more characters opening presents. The chance of spawning a Winter Lord on a large enough team is not 100%, but is high enough that opening presents on large teams is quite hazardous unless the player actually wants the Winter Lord to spawn.
Badges
Opening 200 presents earns the Toy Collector Badge, defeating 100 of the Winter Horde earns the Cold Warrior Badge, and defeating the Winter Lord earns the Frozen Fury Badge.
|
Toy Collector You have amassed a vast collection of holiday gifts! |
|
Cold Warrior
|
|
Frozen Fury You helped defeat a manifestation of the Winter Lord, who brought his cold wrath to Paragon City. |
Candy Canes
Opening presents will also potentially award Candy Cane Salvage, which can be redeemed for a variety of badges, temp powers, and costume pieces from past winter events.
Special Salvage
A festive piece of peppermint candy to celebrate the holidays. Seek the Candy Keeper in the winter chalet in Pocket D, as he collects these candy canes in return for hard to aquire treasures.
Candy Keeper
- Main Article: Candy Keeper
The Candy Keeper allows players to turn in Candy Cane Salvage for a variety of rewards.
- Badges
- Cold Front Badge
- Gifted Badge
- Holiday Spirit Badge (heroes) or Scrooge Badge (villains) badge
- Temporary Powers
- Golden Rings and Joyful Badge
- Renewal of Light and Miraculous Badge
- Holiday Rocket Pack and Longbow Reservist Badge (heroes) or Jet-Setter Badge (villains)
- Holiday Spirit
- Snowball
- Build Snow Beast
- Costume Items
- Furry Gloves and Crystallized Badge
- Furry Boots and Frosty Badge
- Stocking Cap
- Flaming Naughty Halo
- Golden Nice Halo
- Invention Recipes
- Winter's Gift: Run Speed, Jump, Flight Speed, Range
- Winter's Gift: Run Speed, Jump, Flight Speed, Range/End
- Winter's Gift: Slow Resistance (20%)
It should be noted that if you already have the badge, then the badge will not display, however the Costume Item or Temporary Power associated with that badge will still show up and you can trade in Candy Canes for them. This is different from Father Time's mission reward menu in which if you choose a reward for which you already have the badge, you'll get nothing.
Present Locations
NOTE: Not all the spawn sites for the Presents have been documented. If you have the /loc for a spawn site not shown in these images, let us know.
