Howdy Hunters!
Really, who would want to celebrate Valentine’s Day when you can pick a fight with a vicious bunny and some Hitchcock-inspired birds? But we’ve heard you, stay tuned. Meanwhile, we’ve got the usual Mission and 3 tiered comps spread over the week and the old-style Campaign. So bundle up and head over to Whiterime Ridge for a nice selection of new creepy critters. We couldn’t ignore the werewolves for this, you know how much they like to play with our hunters, and the Wendigos were so excited that some of them turned white. Yes, you have pale and creepy Wendigos hiding in the snow this time. Enjoy them!
But that’s not all. The Snow Goose spotting bug has been fixed (it used to cap at 4000 max, regardless) and you may find a couple of new things in the store 😉

MISSION
This year’s mission is called Spring is Coming
Hear me out. You kill a bunch of Halloween animals, and then Halloween is over, right? So, following that logic, if you kill a bunch of winter animals, maybe winter will be over! Please, Hunter, you have no idea how cold it is over here. We’ll need you to kill at least one of each animal (listed below) and any extras you come across. Winter must go!
The mission will last throughout the duration of the event.
Completing it will earn the hunter the following rewards:
Qualifying in a competition awards 100 RimeHeart$ for each comp. You don’t need to place, just have an entry.
Prizes for the competitions look like this:
Each competition comes with 7 tiers based on your Hunter Score:
What would a game be without rules?
We have one simple rule for our events: No exploitation of existing game mechanics to gain an advantage. All winners’ hunts will be checked by EW staff prior to prizes being rewarded, and the decision will be final.
In case of exploits usage, EW has a right to disqualify the player from this event.
And what would an Event be without sales? We’re not sure, but we do know that we’d get nasty messages if we skipped them, so we’ve made sure to put sales in.
Make sure to check out the Sales section to see the full list!
That’s all folks, any questions, feel free to post them below.
Enjoy all!
