The Winter’s Thaw Event 2014 will run from tomorrow and till 3rd of February.
NPCs: Hugin, Jörmungander and Sleipnir NPCs will sail around on ALL PvP maps during the event. The Sleipnir NPCs are minions from the Jörmungander. (The Hugin will give you some Ice Ammo shared depending on how much damage you cause against it. All players shooting it will also get 1 crystal. The Sleipnir will also give crystals, shared depending on how much damage you cause.)
Ammo: In the Ice Chamber (Trader Tab) you can craft Ice Ammo using Snow Ammo plus a little bit of gold. You can also simply buy the Ice Ammo in the Black Market for pearls if you do not have enough Snow Ammo left. (In addition, it is also possible to craft Burning Ice Ammo using Ice Ammo and some pearls – however Burning Ice Ammo will not cause extra % damage against the Event NPCs during the Winter’s Thaw Event since it is meant for PVP.)
Ice Ammo will melt on 4th February!
For every server, at the end of the event, the player in 1st place will win a Libra Bonus Map. In addition, players in 2nd – 5th place will win an Aquarius Bonus Map and five randomly chosen players will win a Taurus bonus map.
