Laid waist to many a low level critter to find not a one. Any sign of em yet?

You mean Candy Cane Shard?

You get them from winning a snowball fight. I got 12 atm.

MSecorsky · Dec 21, 2006, 04:23 PM // 16:23

Last year monsters dropped cancy cane shards as well, I'm hoping that gets reimplemented.

Vandal2k6 · Dec 21, 2006, 04:27 PM // 16:27

Oh reet, didn't know that. Easier to just try and win a snowball fight? You get 3 per win. With a decent group you can win easily. Plus it's a laugh.

Insuscient Ranger · Dec 21, 2006, 04:27 PM // 16:27

I have 130+ shards :P

MSecorsky · Dec 21, 2006, 04:30 PM // 16:30

Last year, the grawl outside Frontier Gate were most generous to my Ranger with the shard drops. Trust me, you could easily outpace the three per from snowball fights.

Erm, i just won a snowball fight... 5-0, and got nothing, nada, zlich,,,wtf is going on?!

Spike · Dec 21, 2006, 09:21 PM // 21:21

why should we have to do only one thing to get the shards. Not every one likes or wants to play pvp you know.

Mournblade · Dec 21, 2006, 11:42 PM // 23:42

Here's an idea - wait until they implement the rest of the holiday activities. There are no collectors yet anyway, so until then the shards are worthless.

So let patience be your friend. :P

Spike · Dec 22, 2006, 12:41 AM // 00:41

and when will that be ?

onerabbit · Dec 22, 2006, 01:03 AM // 01:03

Snow Ball fights are boring now..done to many :P
hope the next update is on its way

Bloodied Blade · Dec 22, 2006, 01:16 AM // 01:16

I prefer when monsters drop them...soo many people in the snowfight just suck at pvp (they'll sit there like it's a lame RA killcount or annhiliation map).

Grawl ftw right now...I'm gonna load up on CCs (356, so I'll allot myself 1 per day...or just a nice round 1k) and spiked eggnogg (which is usally worth 1-5k after the event is over).

CC shards are now dropping from monsters, just got one from a graven monolith in sulfurous wastes.

icedragon981 · Dec 22, 2006, 07:20 AM // 07:20

Yep, they're dropping, I just got 3 outside of the Sunspear Great Hall farming low lvls for em quick.

RPGmaniac · Dec 22, 2006, 07:44 AM // 07:44

got 4 in one run at great northern wall

yea they're dropping now

gavin456 · Dec 22, 2006, 07:57 AM // 07:57

does lvl of an monster affect the drop rate?

Slainster · Dec 22, 2006, 08:11 AM // 08:11

are they dropping across all 3 campaigns??
