Santa has gone missing! The whole holiday season is in jeopardy of being ruined forever if he is not found in time! Noelle has been left to finish making preparations for the busy holiday and needs some brave adventurers to help her locate Santa. The Hunt for Santa runs from December 10th to January 7th.

Come on guys how is this spectacular? I hope you have another event lined up
Are the costumes, appearance stones, things tradeables?

Thanks.
U get 1 hour buff not 2.
You get 2 hours buff... if you get 1 hours buff the remaining time of the buff should be 59 minutes and not 1 hour.

When you take it, it says 1 hour remaining, thats because it goes from 2 hours directly to 1 hour 59 minutes.
Buff remaining time counters will round down to the nearest full hour.

For the first hour of the Fairy Blessing's the timer will show Remaining Time:
1 Hour(s)

For the last hour the remaining time will count down
59 Minute(s)
58..
etc

So it will still last for the full 2 hours.

noob
initial shock of reading that 1 hour maybe caused a panic?
i know i've made that mistake before, but it usually only takes a second.

as for the event... it's always nice to have the extra bonus.
the cat event was nice, this event will be nice.

when you have 3 buffs, will you get 3 santa marks?
or are those unrelated and i just read it wrong?

i'm thinking i will stick a santa outfit on my tank... because i like it.
cape too probably... i only have the basic cape at the moment.
regarding the santa cloak... increase inventory? or was that a one time thing never to be repeated?
Is it possible to know from where we can get Santa's Mark?

I did check the L2 Store, but I didn't find these items, also I did hunt around 1,5 hours on open fields, but I didn't get any event item.
i only have the basic cape at the moment.
regarding the santa cloak

No Zaken Freya Tezza capes?

U get mark automatically when the buff runs off.

At least, explain why... Just to be clear, I'm not talking about your stupidity, I'm talking about your nonsense comment :)

Think he addressed that to me.
nah, never bothered with the quest for zaken/freya cloaks.
not on my tank at least.
not on most characters actually.

You get 1 Santa Mark for 1 expired fairy's blessing buff. If you have all 3 fairy's blessing buffs then you will receive 3 Santa Marks after the 2-hour buff expires.

The permanent Santa Girl's Cloak does not have the increase inventory slots passive skill. That skill was only available on the time-limited Santa Girl's Cloaks during the Save the Trees event in 2011.

I hope you have another event lined upAll depends if you're naughty or nice. You'll have to wait until next week to find out ;)
What happens if you die or you get disconnected or you log off or switch main/dual classes ?

Sounds cool, that we are able to earn unique event items for free and easily, also in a way how farmers cant hold up us in the collection of event items.
Real question is...why is the event called HUNT FOR SANTA...when you've to do anything but empty your credit card into the l2store? =_="

Hope that juji's "wait for next week" mean "yes,we're gonna improve a new stage next week" and not "no,but we're gonna update more l2 store items for make ourself xmas gifts"
i was wondering, when using the Gift item for 3 marks...
does vitality recover while Fishing if fishing in a safe zone?

the reason i am curious is because i don't know how things differ when fishing or when just hanging around. i had a friend who was testing the ability to earn Fame while fishing by using Narsel fort in siege... it was taken quickly, but the time spent there fishing, no fame was received.

so that has made me question all other bonus effects while fishing.

thankyou for this event, it will be enjoyable, even though my play time is limited.

Yes. Marks too.
Will the Noelle's Gifts be deleted at the end of the event or will we be able to keep them?

if you die without nobless, or you change to dual/subclass, obviously you'll lose the event buff.

if you disconnect or do log off, the timer on buff will remain, starting back to count down when you do log in next time.

I'd like to know about this too. Is the Gift thing permament, as we can keep them even after event ends?

Noelle's Gift
Santa's Mark

Naia for sure!
The permanent Santa Girl's Cloak does not have the increase inventory slots passive skill.

So, instead of a Santa Girl's Cloak with that nice passive skill, we get a cloak that kicks you in the nuts?

Awesome. I've always wanted a cloak that kicked me in the nuts.

So did u check this tickets ? Did u check them and found them clear? because they are in gainak 24/7 1 guy running and the others running behind him and in mob ofcorse they hit all together . Because if u found them clear they are not humans 24/7 for 7 months is much vali
