Happy Holidays, Hunters!
The time of year to be happy, cheerful, and generous right? Do that in your real life. On this side of the world, the days leading up to the Winter Solstice are dark and full of danger, from evil spirits to killer icicles.
In the spirit of that, this year, take on the role of the Krampus. Steal every present you can lay your hands on, slay Rudolph, and steal the grand prize for yourself, muhahahahahahaha! The event lasts from the 8th of December to the 22nd of December, featuring the usual Campaign, Mission but 5 Competitions. Vent out your holiday shopper frustrations on some pixels and give your family the gift of a happy, relaxed you.
Participate for the prizes, the trophies, and the glory! The Krampus with the most Present$ at the end of December the 22nd will win a generous first prize!
It's not all dark and wintery though. With the event comes two major bug fixes; the Reindeer incorrect score calculation has been fixed and invisible Reindeer herds are now plain for all to see. Have at them! We're looking forward to some epic scores from you ːsteamhappyː

There are Holiday collectibles all over the EHR! Pick them up when you see them and collect Present$! Harvests also award Present$, so think of them as stocking stuffers and have at it!
This is how the prize pool looks:
MISSION
This year's mission is called Slaying All the Way
I know there're plenty of Present$ in all the reserves, but Hemmeldal looks so good, I think I'll spend most of my event hunting there. Want to help me find Rudolph? I bet he'll look great in a Lodge, and he'll match the decor.
Hey, if we weren't supposed to shoot him, he wouldn't have a bulls-eye on his nose, would he?
The mission will last through the event's duration from the 8th Dec to the 22nd Dec.
Completing it will earn the hunter the following rewards:
COMPETITIONS
5 tiered competitions to take part in, each running for 3 days. Unlike our usual events, none of them will run at the same time. Check the Calendar above if you're confused.

RULES
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.
