Overview

One of the Winter Horde welcomes you to open a present.

During Winter Events, mysterious glowing presents appear throughout Paragon City and the Rogue Isles, courtesy of Gamester.

Upon opening a present, a hero or villain would find that if they were "nice," they would enjoy a nice reward. If they were "naughty," however, they would find themselves surrounded by the Winter Horde, ready to make their holidays downright dangerous!

Gamester's Presents

"Nice" rewards can include additional instances of the Mystery Gift, Present inspirations, or pieces of Candy Cane Salvage, or sometimes a Present and a Candy Cane.

"Naughty" spawns can include the Winter Lord Giant Monster from the Winter Event 2004. Spawning the Winter Lord is based on team size, and requires teams of five or more characters opening presents. The chance of spawning a Winter Lord on a large enough team is not 100%, but is high enough that opening presents on large teams is quite hazardous unless the player actually wants the Winter Lord to spawn.

Badges

Opening 200 presents earns the Toy Collector Badge, defeating 100 of the Winter Horde earns the Cold Warrior Badge, and defeating the Winter Lord earns the Frozen Fury Badge.

Badge

You have amassed a vast collection of holiday gifts!

Badge

You have defeated 100 of the living snow creatures who plague Paragon City.
