The arena last year was in the same place as this year - the snowy mountains or has it is the shiverpeak arena map. But you are right in a way. When you brought up the mini map it would show part of the Underworld.

This year's event will feature the PvP version of the snowball fights known from last year's event, as well as an all new PvE version:

* PvP: "Random forces will unite within an arena to fight for either Grenth or Dwayna. The first team to gather five presents for its patron deity will win the day."

* PvE: "Venture into the Underworld for a series of repeatable snowball fights against either the forces of Grenth or the forces of Dwayna. Take control of piles of presents to ensure your side???s victory in this frosty fray."

Right - you had ur fun bein retards --
Fine- Here's what and where u get them
Frozen Ectos drop in UW- thats true - but only on special conditions
In lions arch there's an NPC ( near the 2 avatars of dwayna an grenth) who looks exactly the same as the grenth avatar.. 'he should have a green exclamation mark over his head the first time you meet him'.. you can find him near a hill somwhere near the gates wit lions..
He can give you two quests.. His name is 'Rift Warden' if ur not sure
Both of these quests take you into the UW region if you agree to, go solo for both of them cause its easy

One you will fight wave upon wave of snowmen using snowball fight skills (very easy)
in the other you will fight grentches using snowball fight skills (be careful! they use their skills quite well) In both of these quest areas the mobs can drop globs of Frozen ectoplasm (bosses 2 globs) and Candy Cane Shards (always 1 - no colour) -- when u think quest is ending soon leave area..if u accidentally complete it- abandon it in town an do it again. Just farm the mobs an you should get 2-5 ectos a run ( 8 mins avg.).
After that you can sell the ectos 4 a decent cheapie price fast 700 ea 4 example an make an easy 5k or so every 20 mins

If you want to buy those stupid Yuletide Tonics for elf transformations >>>>
then you look 4 an npc called #### the tonic maker ( forgot his full name) an you can trade one glob of frozen ectoplasm for one tonic

there is NO other way to get the globs after the quest r done unless on another character.
I hope this cleared ppls brains a bit.
Happy christmas farms!!
+ the drops hav been nerfed a bit recently - ( but still gd drop rate) 1 frozen glob for 3-5 grentchies

For whoever doesn't want to read that, you get them by talking to the Rift Warden in LA.

These quests are completely repeatable.
If you finish the quest for one god and turn it in for the reward you must either do the quest for the other to go back to the first or abandon the new one and log out and you can do the completed quest again.

frozen ecto sup salvage to real ecto

j/k

I have been hearing more and more about frozen ecto's turning to real ecto's after event. One guildie also heard of someone 500k on them. I am just tryin to clarify on the subject so we can maybe quell the rumor if needed, 500k is a lot to spend on a whim. And if you have genuine info on the subject, pls tell me which npc or website told you. thanks.

frozen ectos changing to real ectos is complete and utter BS. Anyone who's telling you that is either trying to scam you in some fashion, or has been scammed themselves in some fashion without realizing it. It's no different than the people who tried to sell customized dragon masks by saying that ANet was going to add an NPC to remove the customization.
