Santa Claus is removed due to client instability

This pretty much made my day.

See... I told you that Santa got Spoons'ed! b:cry

PWE should implement Easter event after this maintenance so they can fix issues and make sure it works until Easter comes.

As for TW, I feel PWE staff are unaware of the harm they cause and all the unhappiness that people express on their official forums.
Please hire a community manager who can vouch for us, even if he is Chinese from a mountain village and you pay him $100/month and he uses Google Translate to understand us. b:sad

As a hardcore user of the goods and services that PWE has to offer in North America, I feel somehow used and abused by this ignorant policy that has been displayed lately by the people in charge of this game.
You guys just revivied the cash cow for another year, give it some attention, for God's sake!

Not merging post due to wall of text coming... sorry about that.




A real Christmas event from 2008. Wish they still did this. b:sad

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!

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 -

Have a red wall of spam to have your world chat messages swept away and drown into oblivion!
Waste your teles complaining about it!

Bully more snowmen under the snowy lag instead!

Christmas is gone anyway."
