This Friday, the Guild Wars 2 Wintersday event will begin and Tyrians of every race will celebrate the arrival of Toymaker Tixx. The festive asura and his mechamagical golem, Toxx, will be visiting each major city in his massive airship toy workshop before finally landing in Lion’s Arch as the Wintersday guest of honor. His airship isn’t just for show either, as groups of 5 players can enter his workshop and create all sorts of holiday mischief.
Things kick off this Friday when Tyria will be transformed into a wintry paradise complete with snowmen, candy canes, and a giant snow globe mystic forge. If you enjoyed pegging children with snowballs in the Wayfarer Foothills (didn’t we all?), then you’ll want to check out the Snowball Mayhem PvP activity. For the musically inclined there’s the Bell Choir musical activity that is accessed from the Bell Maestro at the Lion’s Arch snow globe. And if you thought the Mad King’s Clocktower was evil, how about a jumping puzzle covered in ice? That’s right; the Winter Wonderland jumping puzzle will test the patience of the cheeriest holiday reveler.
ArenaNet has revealed the schedule for the multi-week event and each day the events begin at 10:00 a.m. PST. There is no mention of one-time events, so I believe they will last at least until the next phase begins.
Schedule of festivities:
December 15: Toymaker Tixx visits the sylvari at the Grove.
December 16: Tixx and Toxx head over to Divinity’s Reach.
December 17: The Charr of the Black Citadel are visited by the wacky asura.
December 18: The halls of Hoelbrak will host the Toymaker as he visits the norn.
December 19: Tixx returns to his home town of Rata Sum.
December 20: Toymaker Tixx arrives in Lion’s Arch and will remain there until the event ends on January 3. He will be handing out a special Wintersday gift to everyone who visits him and players can enter his workshop to replay all of the previous toy events.
Finally, players can engage in a zany activity called Toypocalypse where you will defend gift-delivering dolyaks and the toy-making machine from throngs of maniacal toys gone haywire! That sounds a lot like raising small children…except the dolyak part.
It appears that ArenaNet has responded to the community’s feedback about one-time events and have made these festivities available for longer time periods. It also looks like players will be able to enter the airship to replay some of the content that they’ve missed. This could go a long way in alleviating some of the negative energy surrounding the Lost Shores content. What do you think of their Wintersday lineup?
