Winter Pole Tasks and Rewards
Daily Quest Strategy
- Completing all daily quests effectively requires spending Emeralds.
- To avoid overspending, it’s safer to complete only what you can naturally achieve through routine gameplay. In this case, the event becomes pure bonus rewards.
- The “timezone technique” is effective. Although the event lasts 7 days, proper timing of resets allows you to collect rewards over 8 days.
Time Difference Techniques
Treasure Hunt
Treasure Hunt — How It Works
- The number of treasure chests you can unlock in the Winter Pole event depends on your overall quest progress on your server.
- Each treasure chest can be claimed by paying its entry cost.
For example, spending 1,000,000 Gold unlocks Icebound Inlet rewards based on your current quest completion level. - Three Treasure Hunt options are available each day:
1,000,000 Gold, 2,500 Emeralds, or Bundles, each offering different reward tiers.
Eligible Winter Pole Quests
- 1. Log in — max. 7
- 2. Get Hero Soul Stones — max. 50 daily
- 3. Buy Emeralds — max. 25,000 daily
- 4. Spend Emeralds — max. 250,000
- 5. Spend Energy — max. 3,000 daily
- 6. Open Tower Chests — max. 45 daily
Outland only counts toward the first four eligible quests, while Artifacts do not count at all.
This is likely a configuration issue that may be corrected in a future update.
Quests You Can Complete Solo
- Weekly quests: 20
- Daily quests: 35
About Progress Screen Updates
- Treasure Hunt progress is not updated in real time.
- It refreshes only when you complete a quest or reload the browser.
Recommended Playstyle
- Everyone should join the 1,000,000 Gold hunt.
It converts excess Gold into valuable items, making it one of the most efficient activities. - The 2,500 Emerald hunt is optional.
Participation should depend on the number of players joining and whether the reward lineup is worth the cost. - Bundle hunts support ticket relays within the guild.
However, keep in mind:
If the group does not reach the final Gold tier, the number of desirable rewards drops sharply, making this a higher-risk option.
