@Asmodron See LOGOSMAS LIST for all the possibilities, they've been mostly moved out of the stockings/giftbags proper and are now much more flexible via candycanes.

Krypton

So to clarify, stockings this month can only contain these items?:

Prizes!
This year you have a chance to find:
- Silvery candycanes
- Various statistic altering artefacts
- A Logosmas themed artefact vial

Also @Nicola , Since I see stuff in here worth 400 candycanes.  What exactly is the amount of canes you should expect from each stocking level on average (or just a rough guestimate)?  I'm thinking of purchasing 5 extravagent ones, and just really want to feel like I'm getting my money's worth since it's $650 usd.

Also, can we get the ability to tradein the artefacts we get from stockings?  I don't want to get say... a level 3 con belt (which I already have) from a stocking instead of a more useful artefact, and would very easily/gladly trade that in if it meant I got an equivalent 'amount' of candycanes.  (or even 2/3rds the amount.. which is 266 or so, based on the wings).

Nicola

All artefacts can be traded in. Candycane gains should be satisfying when compared to the investment made in the stocking.

Frederich

@Nicola Can they (the stat arties and vials) from stockings, be traded in for candycanes?  Just don't wanna get a level 3 dex boot or somefin and it not be able to fuel my desire to purchase wings, etc.

Nicola

Frederich

Oh.  Hella awesome then.  I thought you meant that as in bound cr.

Definitely lookin forward to this.

Frederich said:

Doesn't she?

Nicola

@Frederich I do mean for bound credits, if you have an artefact it is then bound to you, it cannot be traded back for unbound currencies or to other people.

Frederich

Oh.  I was asking about trading them into candy-canes to purchase the arties with but.  I guess that does make them tradeable...

Still interested

Asmodron

@Nicola someone I know just got herbs and 2 candycanes from their stocking. I had assumed candycanes was a side-present. Is this suppose to be the case?


Additionally, since herbs were not mentioned on the list, are there any other small time presents we can get not listed?

Nicola

Herbs, gold, and the like are the general filler that we've always had in stockings and giftbags, candycanes are a standard prime reward.

Trey

Candy canes sound like a stellar reward considering 5 get you an interlocked cache, and you can save up candycanes for a better reward if you want. What level are the 400 candycane wings, eagle or Atavian?

Frederich

@Trey that's a mini-pet cache that opens for the northern minipets set.  It doesn't open for historical/marks and sometimes death, like last months caches.

Take that as you will.

Trey

Hmm. Candycanes still sound like an acceptable present as long as the amount is variable and it isn't just 2 every time.

Krypton

Trey, they're Atavian.

All the Logosmas artefacts are priced, in candycanes, with their 5cr/candycane value.

My guess is each level stocking will give approx. the # of candycanes equivalent, at least, to that stocking's credit package value.

A shimmering pair of snowfall wings:

-------------------------------------
Price:                   400

Based on:                a pair of atavian wings

-------------------------------------


It's as you would expect at the rate of 5 credits per cane. 

Makarios

The payout starts a little above the credit package worth and has a random factor that can push it a nontrivial amount higher.

Razzlo

You open a logosmas stocking and find a group of 2 candycanes, a pair of Ogre's Gauntlets, and a group of 13 bloodroot leaves inside!

Yay!

You are dismayed as a pair of Ogre's Gauntlets turns to dust in your hands.

Awww

  

Razzlo

Also...

an antler pipe

Claimed from the kill of a reindeer's, naught goes to waste in the frozen north, this elegant pipe 

is fashioned from a piece of antler. Hollowed throughout, a slender prong becomes a mouthpiece, and 

where it joins the main serves as the bowl. While polished and pale where the smoker draws breath, 

the rest still retains the soft, grey-brown velvet of growth.

It weighs 6 ounce(s).

It bears the distinctive mark of Razzlo.

Why did the artifact decay?

Watchman

I will say that getting an identical amount of canes from each stocking feel substantially less uh.. exciting/interesting from a purely 'feeling' perspective. I would likely have preferred no other stat boosting artefacts, but a more common chance for double/triple/quadriple etc canes to capture the excitement of hitting a bigger payday.

That's the thing, it's not free stuff. Well unless someone bought it for you, then I suppose it's sort of free (for you).

Halstad

Stupid question (first Christmas in Achaea): Are the stockings filled after every midnight (while Ironbeard is around), or is it hang, Ironbeard fills once after midnight, stocking disappears/becomes inactive for good?

Antonius

@Halstad Each stocking is single use and only filled once. Though they will remain until opened; I think there may be a few from last year still around.

Devran

I want to see a few of the top tier opened.
