The massive, first part of Winter Expansion just dropped, and it’s actually offering players lost of Christmas goodies. The new currency called XMas Tickets is what you need to grab all the cool stuff from the Christmas Store in The Forge. This guide will walk you through everything about getting these tickets and spending them wisely.
How to Access the Christmas Event in The Forge
Before you can start collecting XMas Tickets, you need to reach the Christmas Event location first. Here are the steps:
1. Unlock Frostpire Island
You’ll need to hit level 70 before you can access Frostpire Island. If you’re not there yet, focus on completing quests from NPCs at different POIs, like Forgotten Kingdom and Stonewake’s Cross. Once you’re level 70 or above, use the Portal that the Wizard NPC gave you during the Tutorial. Open your Portal, select Frostpire Island, and click the Teleport button.
2. Find Santa NPC
When you spawn at Frostpire Island, just walk toward the dock. You’ll see a ship parked there with a Christmas Tree and Santa sitting in the middle. Walk up to Santa and interact with him. This is where all the Christmas magic happens.
All Christmas Store Items in The Forge
The Christmas Store has 11 different items, from pickaxes, totems to potions. To access the shop, talk to Santa again and this time select the second option that says “Shop.” You’ll see everything available for purchase. Here’s the complete list of Christmas Store items:
| Item | Image | Price | What It Does | Stock Limit |

How to Get Xmas Tickets in The Forge
Before you can shop, you need to collect Xmas Tickets first, since this is the new currency used to purchase the items in the Christmas Store.
When you talk to Santa, you select the first option that says, “Can I see the quests?” You’ll get three different Holiday Tasks. Here’s what each quest asks you to do and how many tickets you’ll earn:
| Quest Name | How to Complete | Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| Santa’s Workshop Warmup | Craft 3 Armors and 3 Weapons | 120 Xmas Tickets |
| Cold as Snow | Mine 50 Icy Pebbles | 140 Xmas Tickets |
| Santa’s Pest Control | Kill 25 Crystal Spiders and 5 Diamond Spiders | 160 Xmas Tickets |
The smart way to do these quests is to start all three at once and then complete them together. While you’re mining Icy Pebbles in the Cave, you’ll also run into Crystal Spiders and Diamond Spiders. Kill those enemies as you mine, then head back to forge your armor and weapons. This way, you’re not wasting time going back and forth.
If you complete all three quests every day, you’ll earn 420 XMas Tickets total. That’s a lot of tickets if you stay consistent. Make sure you log in daily and finish all the tasks so you don’t miss out on rewards. Happy questing and Christmas shopping!
