Merry Christmas to all the Heroes of Arcadia! ​

This holiday season, Arcadia is pleased to announce Snowbrook Christmas 2025.



Main event starts Friday 19th December 2pm GMT​



Prepare to brave the sprawling dungeons carved from ice and snow, where bone-chilling goblins and sinister minions await. Venture deeper to face the ultimate winter challenge — the mighty Grotto Troll and his fearsome lieutenant, the Grotto Guardian. But beware—these icy halls are teeming with treasure-laden monsters and their brutal enforcer, the Grotto Brute.

And ho ho ho .. Watch out for Sneaky Santas escaping the scene with stolen presents!

The chill of adventure awaits. Will you conquer the cold and claim the spoils?





Snowbrook Grotto Instances:​


✓ Under level 99
✓ Level 100 to 119
✓ Level 120 to 139
✓ Level 140 to 159
✓ Level 160 to 179
✓ Level 180 to 199
✓ Level 200 to 210​



Snowbrook Underworld​


An epic dungeon with buffed monsters for co-ordinated group hunting. Also the home to the Frost King, a fierce group boss which will require the sword and staff of many Heroes to slay.

✓ Powerful monsters for groups of all levels
(Grotto Rune Key required to enter)​







Frost King will spawn twice-daily with a 1 hour global warning. During his revival, additional event-related enemies will spawn in his Underworld.

For those who are Heroic enough to be around when he is slain, quickly tag a Warpworm with your sword to be teleported to a horde-full chamber.

Is the EXP right in GG cave? Getting 35k - 40k a mob with buffs and some XP kit? It’s very similar in normal cave

The exp per mob is irrelevant. Look at the time it takes. How much % you make in a gg cave vs how much % you make in the same amount of time in a normal cave
 
I think @Scorpian @Warda a should change the PureArctic items upgrades so they won't affect upgraded item stats, its quite unfair we already put alot of effort redoing them and orbing them to sacrifice the stats. All other items we upgrade, and thats fair imo, retain their pre-upgrade stats + they gain the upgrade bits.
I'd like a reply from GMs to xplain if that decided intentionaly.
Thank you.

Why does the arcticmir stuff disintegrate in April, don’t want to upgrade incase that disintegrates in April as well.

Upgrading them in the event removes it.

There will be an opportunity / quest to remove the disintegration (on base Arctic Mir) after the event

I want Christmas trees on all maps like mw bw and pi, random all over.... dropping presents that give random orbs to rare elysian items... i want that.

Do you mean that as a serious request? I don't quite understand the appeal for someone who has already worked hard and developed a kit, why wouldn't you want that as a fair advantage?

A level playing field of rare mobs where a new player can log on and just spend time running aimlessly for pure randomised loot? That disproportionately benefits new players and those who can be online 20h a day

Don't get me wrong I appreciate the appeal, but not for 10+ days :eek:

Fair point, but the server only rewards players who play 20hours a day and you will be stuck with that bunch of toxic players forever.
a new player will log in over xmas and make abit of money/levels during the xmas event and stay a few week.
a new player will have his time of his life killing trees and getting random gifts for just the effort of running about will stay for years.

:) i was the new player that had the time of his life hunting trees in snowbrook and making bank selling items on AH back 5 years ago

That is exactly this server’s problem: it mainly rewards players who account-share or have the ability to play 20 hours a day. Players who have other responsibilities, like work, obviously fall far behind often to the point where they either quit or feel pressured to pay to catch up.


Giving both new and current players a chance, once a year, to obtain a rare item without needing excessive GG wouldn’t hurt the server. In fact, it would likely encourage new players to stick around.

An event kit that disintegrates for players below level 180?
Special Christmas potions that boost protection and strength?

That's your problem yeah, you make that clear. There's plenty of low hanging fruit but it turns out you are not interested in that either and ironically it's the players you take issue with who end up reaping the additional benefits by actually engaging with it.

You are a perfectly high level with good kit. You should be happy with that and enjoy the game. I don't know why you are trying to compete with the elite gamers.

The problem with the game is it's over a decade old. Grind was always an inherent feature and certain grindy questlines were added post-2020 at popular demand to give those who play a lot something to accomplish without the cries of pay2win.

There's plenty of new chance for new players to win rare items but rare is the key and rare is rare because it is rare.

As always, will try some new things next year, keep it fresh and keep people entertained.

Thank you and Merry Christmas

I've been thinking about that since you first mentioned it ingame

Maybe if trees/santas etc were common in all areas of the game, everywhere (outside only, but every town), and dropped 100% of the time, 1 present (small, medium, large), and the presents were immediate use things similar to how the vessels work that you get from helping heroes daily quest.

When you use one you get an instant small reward, either a random amount of gold (max 5 mill), gg (max 5), mythic essence (max 30) or demon souls (max 50). Bigger presents have higher chance of higher number being chosen, or maybe large ones could have a very small chance of some rare items (like treasure goblins drop file)

Would be absolutely not game changing for anyone, but it would just be something else nice to do, and gives everyone an opportunity to get some gg if they are lucky!

100% what i was thinking, you just put alot better than me :) just make it very rare to get anything really good tbh, 1/5000 to get ely item 1/5000000 chance to get rejuv and loads of little rewards

I dont know if it was Euro or a server i played because it blends into one these days. but they did a event like this and you get benes most of the time but every now and then something worth doing it for. i find it helps alot of lower levels and new starters out, not just money wise but wanting to play time.

i find myself logging in doing abit of the event or gg caves and logging off. maybe people will enjoy this for a couple of days?
