The following will be applied at 00:00 server time.

It's Christmas in Arcana and Terminus Center has been decorated for the festivities. Santa's granddaughter Marie is in town with quests and the hunt for the Christmas Shushus is on!



Santa's Granddaughter, Marie, is in Terminus for the festive period. Can you help her save Christmas?

Christmas Seasonal Dungeon
Team up with upto 5 other players of ANY level and speak to Santa's Granddaughter, Marie, in Terminus to enter and defeat Bad Santa and his Cursed Christmas Trees.

Bad Santa doesn't care about your class, level, or gear, everyone is equal to Bad Santa! Anyone can tank him and anyone can help damage him. Take along your low level friends - they will be just as effective as a level 100 regardless of gear, items, and skills.

Bad Santa can drop Christmas Food, Fireworks, Pet Summoning Pieces, III/IV/V Equip Cards, Trophies, Christmas mounts and costumes, the Bad Santa title, and "other" stolen items.

You can enter one time per day and it resets at 00:00.

Speak to Marie for a Daily Event quest to defeat Bad Santa.

Christmas Quests and Store
Marie has quests to hunt Christmas Shushus, rewarding a Christmas title, and quests to recover stolen gifts that reward a selection of delicious Christmas foods.

Marie's store sells Christmas themed costumes, mounts and accessories as well as items that can be purchased with Santa's Reward, obtained by completing some of her quests.



Christmas Pets
Marie has six winter themed pets that she will exchange for Pet Summoning Pieces and Santa's Rewards. Speak to Marie and click on Item Exchange to see what's available.



There is a pet of every type, Physical Melee, Magical Melee, Physical Ranged, Magical Ranged, Assist and Tank.

Snowy Shushu
Type: Physical Melee 
Chance Effect: Reduce Physical Defense

Snowflake
Type: Assist 
Chance Effect: Reduce All Attack

Rudolph
Type: Magical Melee 
Chance Effect: Reduce All Hit

Snowy Bear
Type: Physical Ranged

Ice Soldier

All Pet Summoning Pieces can be obtained by defeating the Christmas Shushu, Christmas Shushu Boss and Christmas Dungeon Shushu and Rudolph Summoning Pieces can also be obtained by defeating Rudolph the Lost.

Now is the perfect time to get yourself an Epic pet using the Pet Upgrade System, by collecting loads of Christmas Pet Summoning Pieces! You need to collect enough to get 4 Unique scrolls and you have yourself an Epic pet. Use the first scroll to summon the Unique pet and the other 3 to upgrade it to Epic quality.

The Christmas Shushu
The Christmas Shushu is a rather tough little fellow that drops Christmas Fireworks to replenish your HP, MP, or both, and also usually has some Christmas event foods and pet summoning pieces too!

But beware, the much stronger Christmas Shushu Boss might also appear somewhere in Arcana at any time, laden with Christmas gifts stolen from Santa Claus! You will need to gather your friends if you hope to defeat this one!


He drops pet summoning pieces, Santa and Rudolph the Reindeer costumes, Christmas Sleigh and Thousand Year Old Reindeer mounts, Festive Squidink vanity pet and plenty of Christmas food and fireworks. This guy is so full of himself, he will probably challenge you to defeat him in 5 minutes for a better chance of lovely Christmas loots!

Start your Shushu hunt in the snowy areas of Shebuz Snowfield, Shrouded Valley, Altus Gorge, Hidden Cavern, Conflict Valley and Frozen Nest.

Dungeon Christmas Shushu
Adventurers might also discover the Dungeon Christmas Shushu at the end of their level 85+ dungeon runs. This guy has similar strength and abilities to the Christmas Shushu Boss and drops similar items including pet summoning pieces.
