How to use Winterfest Coins

Winterfest Coins can be used for any gift.
While you can gift yourself, the primary purpose is to exchange gifts with guildmates, promoting mutual benefits.
If you gift yourself:
1. Earn the gift
2. Skin stones of Hero introduced during this event
3. Skin stones of Hero of the Day
Gifting a guildmate yields 5 items:
1. Skinstone of a hero introduced during this event
2. Skin stones of a hero of the day
3. Points for Present sent ranking
4. The first daily gift will match the one you gave (Holiday Everyday: daily quest)
5. Additional gifts based on the number of gifts sent (Holiday Everyday/: 021′ ).

Winterfest Ranking

Three types of rankings will be contested within the server.

Types of Rankings and Prizes

1. Present sent ranking: Totems and Certificates.
2. Present received ranking: Titan artifact sphere.
3. Guild tree decoration ranking: Guildmaster’s Present.

Key Points

The crucial ranking is for gifts sent: 1st-3rd: Element Spirit Summoning Pearl x1 (reset totem of any attribute & fixed totem) & Avatar x2; 4th-10th: Lesser Element Spirit Summoning Pearl x1 (reset random totem & fixed totem) & Avatar x1; 11th and below: certificates according to rank.
Gifts given to yourself by yourself are not counted.

All Ranking Rewards and Emerald equivalent

Aiming for high rankings

Achieving a high ranking in the most gifts sent category requires a substantial amount of gifts, often 2 to 3 times more emeralds than a normal totem pull.
Many servers claim that obtaining totems is more cost-effective during seasonal and sale events.
The actual difficulty level varies significantly from server to server!
The avatars rewarded for ranking in the top 3 are truly unique. You can’t acquire them through any other means, and new ones are introduced each year. Keep in mind that once the event concludes, they won’t be available again!
If you’re aiming to acquire them, I highly suggest teaming up with two other players and engaging in a mutual exchange!
Consider partnering with two people for mutual exchanges if you aim for a top spot.
Due to the unpredictable nature of the competition, establish a withdrawal line and stick to it steadfastly.
Be cautious about running out of emeralds; resorting to a series of bundle purchases is necessary. Caution.

About the top ranking rewards

Playing the Winterfest

Join an active guild and collect numerous gifts for the guild tree.
Mutually exchange various gifts daily, focusing on skin gifts.
Accumulate soulstones through mass exchanges, especially on days when targeted hero soulstones are distributed (effective for heroes like Isaac, with limited soulstone availability).

Obtaining Winter Skins

Winter skins are exclusively available through event skin gifts.
Acquiring specific skins is random.
Obtaining all may require around 50,000 emeralds.

What is the Winterfest Mutual Exchange?

Guild Rules for the Winterfest

Establish intra-guild rules for the Winterfest and consider incorporating recommendations.

Guild DASHIMAKI-TAMAGO uses an exchange board:

Rule 1: No need to return gifts if the exchange board isn’t used.
Rule 2: Use the exchange board to specify gift returns.
Rule 3: Specify target gifts, quantity, and date (due to the Hero of the Day).
