[H2N]

• Fixed an issue where players under level 10 opening winter frozen chests were not receiving items.
• The daily quest 'Into the Lair' now grants players access to the Ice Tempered Goblin turnstile dungeon once per day. After taking the quest, head behind Limae to the portal to enter the lair. Note that this access will time out after 2 Hours!
• Tarlok the Dragon has had his stats brought down a bit for levels 10 through 15.
• Frost Fiends now have a chance to drop Winterfest Tokens.

I still rather have him in normal maps only. He is pretty annoying. Worst than Jack Hellows.

Thanks for the update

[Ishtmeet]

How many tokens? maybe 1? lmao

[Chiazihu]

Y not day 1 goblin, day 2 wolf, day 3 thor and day 4 tarlok?

[Samhayne]

How many tokens? maybe 1? lmao

The Fiend is pretty common. He doesn't always drop tokens, but has a decent chance to do so. I believe 1, 2 or 3.

[FluffNStuff]

At least he drops something. That guy is a pain the frozen rum on the Southern Seas! Thanks!

Yeah, at least we got some decent gold bundles per hit from Hellow... But even still, 1, 2, or 3 tokens still isn't worth killing the frost fiends...

Regarding Frost Fiends:

The decision to make the token reward amount low, and the chance only decent and not 100% was to prevent higher level players from farming them as a better means of obtaining tokens than finding portals with a Goblin in it. It wouldn't be super fun to run through Brackenridge on your level 36 hunting frost fiends all day, and so their reward has been balanced out to make it a more exciting moment when one pops out and not as a replacement for the portals which are the main source of Tokens.

Ultimately as part of encompassing the event for all players we need to be able to maintain the balance for items and their rate of introduction to the economy from different angles. This is why certain items like Breezaga and Tarlok's Imbued Chests are rare, so as not to trivialize the content immediately.

Thanks everyone for the feedback that's helped shape this event into something fun for all!
