Walk Through

NOTE: The gift boxes were turned on Friday Dec 18th, however the quest is currently bugged in that characters that completed the quest last year are still on a timer. Turbine is aware of the issue and is deciding how to resolve this so that players can still complete the quest. (Forum Thread)


Travel to 12 locations scattered throughout Dereth (see map below) to find 12 hidden Gift Boxes. Use each box for a special reward (one of five trophy rewards listed below, 12 total) and a title. Once you've used all 12 you will be rewarded with a Polar Ursuin Lair that summons the Pet Polar Ursuin Cub and a 2nd title.

  1. Empyrean Lighthouse - 26.4S 97.0E (North of Tou-Tou.)
  2. Frost Haven - 68.6S 26.0E (Northeast of Qalaba'r, just outside Frost Haven. Options: Use the Citadels Portal Device and run there from Ridge Citadel, or Qalaba'r Oasis Settlement portal at 74.8S, 17.8E.)
  3. Igloo - 73.8N 13.7W (Northeast of Stonehold.)
  4. Linvak Tukal - 77.8S 27.9E (Inside the top of the south wall. From drop turn right and use ramp on south wall to go up, then inside and up internal ramp once, then west to box.)

  6. Neydisa Castle - 69.7N 17.6E (On third floor in attic.)
  7. Obsidian Span - 34.6N 41.2E (Take East Span portal at 32.8N 59.4E east of Arwic, then follow road west to bridge.)
  8. Old Frost Essence Island - 16.4N, 53.6E (Run north from Rithwic, stick to left bank of river.)
  9. Plateau Village - 44.3N 43.4W (On second floor.)
  10. Swamp Temple - 23.4S, 47.9E (East of Yanshi take Swamp Temple Place Portal at 10.3S 45.7E and inside bunker with dungeon portal.)

  12. Xarabydun - 41.9S 16.1E (Go down tunnel and stick left until come to box under the beam of light.)

Note: A tremendous effort was put forth by all servers to find the twelve locations. See the many many locations searched on the Talk Page.

Lore & Dialog

Town Crier tells you, "The holiday season is a time for presents and giant well wrapped boxes containing presents."

Town Crier tells you, "Is winter here yet? I mean, people are giving each other presents, but there's no snow yet... Is it because of the ley lines?"

Town Crier tells you, "A close family friend of mine discovered some giant gift on his way to visit me for the holiday season. I wonder if there are more gifts around Dereth?"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "The only giant gift box I want would be full of ale!"

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I found a nicely packaged little gift box the other day. I was tempted to open it, but I resisted the temptation. The last time I opened up a strange gift that some stranger had left for me, I ended up on this godforsaken world."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "No, wait, that's how I ended up naked and penniless in Canfield with a big bruise on my forehead. I ended up here because I drunkenly stumbled into a portal, thinking it was a clever new kind of outhouse."

Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "It's a time for giving and I hear someone has left giant gift boxes around Dereth. Mine was full of ale."
