Guild Wars 2 is also celebrating Christmas this year in the form of the Winterday. Back again are the crazy toy workshop and the hearty snowball fight PvP event. For hardcore PvP players, there’s also Season 5.
Christmas in Guild Wars has existed since the first game in the series. And also in Guild Wars 2, there is a Christmas event every year. The festival is called “Winterday” and in the city of Divinity’s Reach, the airship of the toy maker Tixx appears. The event started on December 13 and the activities are the same as last year.
Death to the Toy!
These are still fun, however. For example, Tixx’s magical toy workshop goes crazy and is overrun by wacky dolls, plushies, and tin soldiers. Thus, the “Wondrous Workshop” offers the ideal setting for PvE events, including the “Toypocalypse.” During it, you have to protect gift-laden pack animals in the center of the map from the toys.
For this, you have special weapons available, a hammer to smash toys as well as cork rifles and pistols. As a reward, there are valuable gift boxes. These may contain not only resources but also valuable skins like an ice skin or a special golem glider.
In addition to the Death Toy Factory, you can complete more Winterday activities. For example, the sadistic Winter Wonderland jumping puzzle. Also back: The carol, where you have to play certain melodies, as well as the PvP snowball fight “Snowball Ruckus.” If you want the full PvP experience, you can also let loose in the recently started Season 5 of PvP in Guild Wars 2.
