Patch Notes #80 - Winter Wonder

Christmas Event 2024
Last years Christmas event is back! The Santa set and Elfo set are back but with 1 new 2024 exclusive item, Inverted Santa Hat! You can find Nice List Scraps in Mirky Woods from all mobs except bosses. Happy Holidays!

Chests, Crates, Gemstone Boxes and Lost Keys
Chests and Crates have been added to Cave of Some Return, Swamp Grotto, Cave of Despair, Forgotten Underground and Mirky Woods. Some fun new mechanics have been added to them. Gemstone Boxes are your way to focus Gemstones into the exact one you want using the Locksmith NPC. How do you open the gemstone boxes? Lost Keys! You can collect them from high HP bosses and some enemies in Mirky Woods.

The Winter Battle Pass is back! Same cosmetics as last year but with a refresh to rewards. No more Teleport Scrolls! Now more chances for gemstones, plates and faction badge consumables.
