Old Winterforge Quests

Below you can find quests from the 2023 Winterforge Event.

There are four quests you can complete for the Winterforge event, and they all revolve around special Elf mobs that spawn on the world map.

Blessing Friends

Blessing Friends Quest

If you speak to the small elf near the Winterforge tree in Oakwood, you can begin this quest.

You'll need to give a Blessed Doll to the elf and then you can choose between two Santa hats.

Cursed Elf Hat Blessed Elf Hat

To get a Blessed Doll, you'll need to find two items: Stolen Nice List and Innocent Doll Pattern. Both of these items drop from the Elf mobs. You can then combine these two items in your Inventory to create the Blessed Doll.

The second part of the quest then requires you to get a Cursed Doll. To create a Cursed Doll you'll need to combine Stolen Naughty List and Sinful Doll Pattern.

You'll be rewarded with a Humble Elven Stash, that when opened gives you +50 Voodoo Essence.

Voodoo Essence (OLD 2023)

The two main quests require you to collect Voodoo Essence, which drops from Elf mobs when you slay them (has a common droprate).

Reindeer Headdress

Reindeer Headdress

Collect 1,500 Voodoo Essence and you can claim a Reindeer Headdress Giftbox.

Winterforge Reindeer

Winterforge Reindeer

Collect 5,000 Voodoo Essence and you can claim the Winterforge Reindeer Giftbox (mount!).

Repeatable Quests (OLD 2023)

Luckily, you don't have to slay 5,000 Elves to get your Voodoo Essence. There are two repeatable quests that reward you with Humble Elven Stash (+50 Voodoo Essence) or Gluttenous Elven Stash (+100 Voodoo Essence).

You can find the quests in the following locations (north of the Swine Pits and North of Stone Glade):

Weary PleaStone Glade

Weary Plea

Give Blessed Doll to receive a Humble Elven Stash.

Slothful Request

Give Cursed Doll for a Gluttonous Elven Stash.

Winterforge Elfs (OLD 2023)

Winterforge Elfs

The main focus for this event are the Winterforge Elfs. These little minions can spawn anywhere in Winterforge (though usually have specific spawn points on maps that you can figure out) and will drop items related to the event.

Some tips:

  • When you hit an Elf, it will run away from you in the opposite direction. If you're fighting mobs near your level, this can sometimes get you into trouble and get you killed, so try to hit the Elf so that it runs away from other mobs.
  • The first to hit the Elf mob will have around 20 seconds to kill it before other players can damage it.
  • The Elf is not guaranteed to drop a Voodoo Essence- it can even drop Coal!
  • If you have plenty of spare gold, you can buy Voodoo Essence from other players.
