Just so everyone is clear, there is no Xmas "event". There is only Snowmen and the killing of said Snowman. Please do not refer to last year's guides because.. well.. they're for the event last year. Not this year. 2008, not 2009. Thanks, and I hope everyone enjoys their holiday! (Except for the Snowman) b:bye

Title: A Perfect World Christmas (and New Year's!)Date: 2008-12-10
'Tis that time of the year, when friends and family gather, gifts are exchanged, and evil snowmen invade the major cities. That's right, the Perfect World Christmas & New Year's event is upon us! Read on for details on the different parts of this epic event, which begins on December 24th...
- Invasion of the Naughty Snowmen -
The Snowman Tamer needs your help! An army of Naughty Snowmen have invaded the four major cities of Perfect World. It's up to you to send these cold-hearted monstrosities back to whatever depths they hobbled out from. You can find the Snowman Tamer in the following locations: Etherblade - next to the Messenger of the Sages; City of the Lost - next to the Adventure Assistant; City of the Plume - next to the Priest; and Archosaur - very center of the city, underneath the Warsoul Spirit.
For a limited time, speak with the Snowman Tamer and he'll give you a quest to defeat 40 Snowmen. Every time you complete this quest, you'll receive 2,000 EXP and 400 Spirit. You'll also receive a special Christmas Stocking, which contains a secret present! Remember, you can complete this quest as many times as you want!
Note that you'll need to be level 20 or higher to initiate this quest (there's no level requisite for slaying snowmen, however).
- Snowball Launcher -
Speak to the Snowman Tamer and he'll give you a Snowball Launcher and 10,000 snowball ammo. Use this nifty weapon to defeat the Naughty Snowmen (don't ask why snow works against snow)! This item will only last for 12 hours.
- Christmas Chocolate -
Santa Claus is ready to prepare delicious chocolate treats for you if you bring him the proper ingredients! All of these ingredients can be found by gathering crafting materials:
Edible Pigment can sometimes be found while gathering coal
Chocolate Syrup can sometimes be found while gathering lumber
Chocolate Additive can sometimes be found while gathering stone
Cocoa Cores can sometimes be found while gathering metal
Once you turn in the right ingredients, Santa will prepare special chocolate treats, which give short duration buffs when you eat them:
Speed Chocolate increases your movement speed
Power Chocolate increases your physical attack power
Wisdom Chocolate increases your magical attack power
Memory Chocolate reduces your channeling time
Armor Chocolate increases your physical defense
Protection Chocolate increases your magical defense
Force Chocolate increases your critical hit rate
Longevity Chocolate increases your HP recovery rate
Energy Chocolate increases your MP recovery rate
Note that you'll need to be level 20 or higher to eat these treats.
- X'mas Card Hunt -
> X'mas for All (Tier 1)
Beginning at level 20, you can speak to the X'mas Tree in each city and it will bless you with a pack of X'mas cards. Open the pack and you'll receive a random assortment of cards. You can either come back to the X'mas Tree the next day to get a new batch of cards, or you can trade with your friends to collect them all! When you collect cards 1-7, return them to the X'mas Tree to combine the cards. Take the combined X'mas Card Set (1-7) to Santa and he'll reward you with a Small X'mas Box that contains all sorts of goodies! Remember, this quest can be repeated once per day.
> X'mas Wish Cards (Tier 2)
If you're level 55 or higher, the X'mas Tree will give you a quest to visit different NPCs around the world who are holding the X'mas Wish Cards (8-14).
If you take an X'mas Card Set (1-7) plus any one of the X'mas Wish Cards (8-14) from the NPCs around the world to Santa, he'll reward you with a Big X'mas Box that contains all sorts of goodies!
You can also collect all X'mas Wish Cards (8-14) and have the X'mas Tree combine them into an X'mas Wish Card Set. This can be used for the X'mas Blessing quest (Tier 3).
> X'mas Blessing (Tier 3)
If you're level 75 or higher, you can obtain the final set of cards, the X'mas World Cards (15-21). These cards are hidden in various monsters throughout the world. If you take an X'mas Card Set (1-7), an X'mas Wish Card Set (8-14), and any one of the following X'mas World Cards (15-21) to Santa, you can turn them in for special items. Note that all items come with a pack of 8 Monkey King pills OR Fat Bro pills.
Trade Daylight (card #15) to receive a Christmas Guardian Charm
Trade Air (card #16) to receive Perfect Cookie x20
Trade Flora (card #17) to receive 50,000 EXP and 8,000 Spirit
Trade Sola (card #18) to receive a Christmas Spirit Charm
Trade Fauna (card #19) to receive a Chocolate Box (contains one of each Chocolate Candy types)
Trade Human (card #20) to receive Mirage Celestone x7
Trade Bestowal (card #21) to receive Mysterious Chips x10
Remember, you'll need the completed sets from the previous tiers (1-7) and (8-14), combined with one of the (15-21) cards to receive these items.
Now, if you are diligent enough to gather all 3 sets of cards (1-7), (8-14), and (15-21), you can turn in all 3 completed sets to Santa to receive the ultimate prize: Blessing of Christmas, which grants you permanent +1% Crit rate!
- The Living Snowmen -
Little Yaoyun in West Archosaur needs help with the snowman she built. Help her by talking to Santa and he'll give you a quest to investigate the mysterious Living Snowmen seen in the areas outside of Etherblade, City of the Lost, and City of the Plume. You'll need to be level 20 or higher to begin this quest.
- Santa's Helper -
Throughout the word, monsters will randomly drop a special item called the Christmas Card. Take the Christmas Card to Tu Heng in Archosaur (533, 645) or Santa to begin a quest to help deliver presents around the world. In return, you'll receive a Christmas Stocking, which contains a secret present for helping Santa! Note that you'll need to be level 20 or higher to initiate this quest.
- X'mas Gifts -
If you're level 55 or higher, speak to Santa and he'll give you a Christmas stocking just for talking to him! How's that for jolly?
- Free Christmas Clothes -
Speak to the Inventory Master in each major city to receive a *free* set of Christmas clothes! These outfits last for 3 days, and you'll need to be level 10 or higher to wear them.
- Santa's Grocery Store -
Last but not least, talk to Santa and he'll sell you an item that lets you pretend to be Santa for a short period of time. Be sure to spread good will to all!
Happy Holidays from the Perfect World International team!
Random Thoughts and Player Info:
Hope this can help to eliminate alittle confusion for people who weren't here last year, and maybe, just maybe the rest of the event will get put in.
Eventhough I am very pleased that the GMs actually listened to the player base and threw the Christmas Event in, I am VERY disappointed that there has be NO official announcements, and they did NOT take the time to ensure that everything was working correctly.
There could still be a chance that they will get the rest of the event fixed but that is no excuse for not having any announcements of any kind. I have lost alot of respect for our GMs and PWE this holiday season.

2) They stated yesterday that there was no announcement because they were unsure if the coding had been/would have been in time for the event due to the expansion. As such they made no announcement.

3) There still might be an event, maybe they are saving it for the weekend.
4) People want so much and when they do not get something they QQ, but when they get something (like the Snowmen) then they want more.
You might be eating your words, you might not. The fact is you are speculating that everything is not working properly.

The cards are just rare.
Be patient and see what happens.
If there is no official event then fine. After all, they did just release the expansion.
And welcome back![SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

Seems all u "KIDS" think about is getting getting getting....
They gave us the expansion ( YES IT HAS FLAWS, NO I DONT CARE) while they normally wouldnt have.
It's a better present than any other non significant present they could give us.
Xmas isn't just about presents damnit, stop being so selfish and ignorant.
I for one, while I'm not completely happy with everything, wish the devs, admins and other staff of PWI a happy Xmas and crazy New Year.

i loled at this. how much money have u droped into this game? and how many other games have christmas events? PW is pushing waay to close to being centered aroung the cash shop. Plus, we are one of the, if not the only version of PW without a complete Chrismas Event (even the anti-christmas event on the european severs is still an event).[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

I played PW-MY for a years, it was horrible. Crappy GMs, horrid players, worst economy in any game ever. PWI is so much better. And I've played every class to at least 40, had a 60 WF, and a 50 EP there (I don't play much and I never bought cubi-gold). Then I came to this version and got all the classes to 30, 60 veno, and 73 and still going cleric. (ive quit about 10 times xD)
Also I want to point out that you called the event "lousy" even though you were QQing about my disappointment, go back to PW-MY u fit in.[SIGPIC][/SIGPIC]

My chars im talking about are in PWI...
I havent played PW MY for over a year. I'm just saying I know PW and how it works. Ive been here long before the stupid AnniPacks.
All ur doing is making assumptions and crying over little things that arent worth it, at least not at this time of the year.
Maybe ur lonely and u need this game to have fun, I understand, but don't drag the rest of the community with u.
And now I'm gone and I hope u at least try to have a bit of fun these last days of the year. Because crying over little things is just not worth it.
AND the ffact u see december on my avatar is cuz i made my TBorn in december, WHEN THE EXPANSION CAME OUT. Watch every avatar thats a TBorn and they are all December....0 -

I haven't seen a GM all day. Im thinking they are on break for Christmas. When they get back they'll notice the messed up Xmas event. Instead of fixing it they'll probably brush it aside and wait till next year to have a quality event.
That's just what Im thinking, I may be wrong.0 -

Just so everyone is clear, there is no Xmas "event". There is only Snowmen and the killing of said Snowman. Please do not refer to last year's guides because.. well.. they're for the event last year. Not this year. 2008, not 2009. Thanks, and I hope everyone enjoys their holiday! (Except for the Snowman) b:bye朱健诚
