Winter Updates Thread

Snowball Fight just came out for American discricts. xD

Side effect of arenas: your expertise is set to 0. And no, you don't need the christmas weapons.

OP updated with arena info and skill list

Hmmm. I found the arenas boring after the first 2 minutes of fighting :\

My divine's set to 0 too, apparently your primary prof's attribute is always reduced to 0.

I love the snowball fights! Made a video just now (we lost, oh well), Will post as soon as its done rendering

Yeah, it doesnt seem to be going down to well with people. If the weapons fired snowballs, then maybe... but.... good try but.... yeah.

What's wrong with you people? Snowball arena is hella fun! My team's on a 10 game streak right now.

Snowball arena's the best thing in the update yet.

it's fun but it gets kinda boring after a while =\

I played for about an hour and a half... had three good teams. There's a reason to PvP (for me) again!

Snowball Arena has lots more skills than just those posted originally. Anyone know the full list?

From what I understand skills 1-4, 7, 8 are always the same.

Skill 5 either depends on which side you're on or completely random. It's either Yellow Snow (disease) or Avalanche (cripple foe + foes in area).

Skill 6 is always primary profession dependent.

Warrior = 5 sec charge + adren per ally charged
Monk = 10 sec soj
Necro = suicide well of profane
Elem = mind freeze

deathmf, thanks for the info. I went in again to see if I'd get any new spells, and I did see two new spells, one health regen and one necromancer-well-type. (the one above, probably)

If anyone has the specifics of these spells please share them and I'll add them to the list

Snowball Arena is fun but gets bored after 2 wins

anyone know when wintersday ends??

Didn't see it here yet, so here we go.

Thanks Makkert! I'll add the missing ones to the original post.

Skills 1-4: Always the same.
Skill 5: Depends whether you're on Greneth (Yellow Snow) or Dwayna's (Avalanche) team.
Skill 6: Dependent on primary profession
Skill 7-8: Always the same.
