    So, the amphora progress drops have been silently nerfed.
    Good job.

    By the begin of the event, they were dropping 1k progress each in inf4. Now they are dropping about 100 progress in inf4.

    Why was nothing said about it? Why was there no information if this was a bug?

    All the people who didn't have enough time for playing before and kept amphora keys for the inf4 bar are now punished...

    Mhorblik's pet drop rate hadn't been fixed until the end of the event because "it would be unfair to those who had it already finished"...
    ...and this was fixed while the event is running without a single word at all?

    This is the real injustice.

    I hope in next christmas events that's will be illegal. One gift per account, so that people do not spend Christmas time on the game itself. That is sick!

    Maybe he doesn't have any physical family. Maybe the friends he has here are his family. And you want to deny him his family?? I've spent a Christmas day alone. Had my car. No computer. No family. Nothing was open. It was not fun.

    My wife slept most of Christmas day. I spent much time here cause I can't sleep that much. We had a good Christmas. Then it snowed after dark.

    Then those people would move to other games. That's all you could achieve.

    You're probably only killing the boss, because blue presents drop way more often than violet ones if you actually kill everything or at least leader monsters + the clusters surrounding them.
    I have 3000+ greens, 900+ blues, and 0 violets :D

    Only killing the boss? You have no idea how I play. And no blue presents do not drop more often for me.

    Yes, the Big Present isn't gotten this year from skill or how well you've crafted your character or how much time you put into the game.

    The Big Present is gotten PURELY OFF OF LUCK OF THE VIOLET PRESENT DROPPING. And I'm not lucky. I get 1 or 2 violet presents off of 2-5 runs. It's ridiculous.

    Big Paws should only be dropping gold presents. There are 2+ purple leaders coming up the mountain and they should drop only purple or gold presents. The 3 blue leaders should be dropping blue or purple presents. The green leaders should be dropping green or blue presents. And all the minions should be dropping green presents.
    This means that every run you should get 1-2 Gold, 1-3 purple, 3-5 blue, and about 20 green presents.

    What I'm saying is that you should be able to turn in Phestos' Quest every other run up the mountain, or at least every 3rd run.

    Hi again. I finally managed to finish this xmas event till where i wanted to... i did more in this last minievent cos there were 5 gems at 4070 of progres but if it has not been for that with three runs in excruciating lvl for each mini would have been enough.

    About present and phestos coins the drop of blue present has been the half for me than purple ones... is it a bug? who cares at this point of the event...

    See you all in the next event... good drop to all of you

    same problem as you: 600 green presents, 150 purple and 0 blue in my inventory… I drop almost only green in map, green and purple in the cages, I don't know how to farm blue presents:oops:

    Maybe after finish the mini if I have time I'll farm only map trying to get them

    You DSO Developing team should get rewards for making the most grindy, boring, repetitive and unrewarding events. The beginning of an event is the most important bar to attract players and reward them for the end of the year, but you have a bar that gives rubbish. This bar should kick ppl off to get them into it and the end game bit is for the elite players but you only focus on the elite players and let the others grind to death, very long hours for so little rewards. I feel sorry for those who got sucked into this, got no life and tolerated all this tedious repetition after repetition crap. This is the first year I have not attempted this event - thanks you your design :(

    Hi E.,
    i do not agree. The first progress bars Main Event and Challenge provide quite good reward for beginners with little efford in comparison to the infernal Bars of Main Event or the second bars of Challenge.

    I would agree that for players that are no beginners any more and still no end-game Charakters it first was not attraktive (infernal4 bars) and after Change to play free in mode is very much grind.

    But for those middle-field Charakters that need both the jewels and the runes the rewards are attractive.
    You should compare it with efford and reward of the early days Events. :D
    What makes this feeling are some Events with very good rewards for little efford that happened in a Phase of the game, some Time ago ;)

    And the big golden present (1500 phestos coins) is worth the efford in any case if you have not maxed out your runes already .

    finished the main event all bars have no issues besides the towers, not fun probally 90% of my deaths are from those.
    did the second mini both bars, this mini is just not fun, with the tower spam all over and the added slow makes it even worse, oh and there is no point to kill the mobs in there so everyone just runs past them to the boss then the cages..boooooring

    i tryed to play the third i just couldnt do it i really tried its just soul leeching unfun...

    oepned 1500 coin present really nice rewards there and it was within reach for all players imo

    Not in reach for everyone. Only in reach for those who are lucky enough to get all the types of presents.

    I myself only did the first bar of each of the minis and finished to the end of the main inf1 bar. The rest of the time has been trying to get coins. I've only managed to get enough violet presents for about 500 coins. I played a good 10 hours Saturday (2 days ago) and was only able to turn in 4 Phestos Coin quests. I'm currently at a mere 1197 coins.

    So yesterday I gave up and opened hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of green and blue presents of T1, T3, T4, and T6 types. I wouldn't be surprised if those green and blue presents totalled over 1500 count.

    Tooo bad I couldn't have sold them for 1 Phestos Coin each. :( Then I'd have the big present. :(

    I finished inf1 bar of the main event and I went crazy and actually finished both bars of mini 1 and 2 in inf1. I also did some runs in painful to kill the bear for violet presents. All in all I opened the big present and I actually still have 1507 coins. Obviously I haven't spent a single coin in the Wonder-o-mats.

    My luckiest runs (very rare) yielded 4 violet presents (main map without the left part + kranp's lair), my unluckiest runs yielded 0 (also very rare).
    Some people complained about blue presents not dropping enough. Idk how they play or what difficulty they play, but as for me, I played mainly fatal and when minis were on, mostly inf1. Blue presents dropped a lot. I have 800+ of them still after handing in all my violets.

    Oh and btw. I have almost 300 golden presents, so you can see how many times I actually got that instead of a violet one from bosses :|

    I opened all my golden presents as I got them after about the 5th. Thus I couldn't tell you how many hundred fold I got. Sad thing there was that about 70 percent of them gave me Sugar Beets instead of Snow Essence. I know that others got mostly Snow Essence, which at 200 a pop was a real benny since it's far easier to farm the beets than the snowmen.

    Zero violets was my most common. I had many many many 5 runs without a single violet. I did once, at the very end, get 3 violet presents in one run. Wish that had been the more common result. But there you go. So much of this game is based on luck and some toons are "blessed" with the luck and some are not.

    It was a bonus code and you had one week to use it after getting, it was showed on the premium. if you didn't notice this and used the reward on time is your own problem, not others; I did this same thing several times, then I learnt.
