Feast of Winter Veil 2021

The halls have been decked, and garlands abound. The excitement is building all around. Great Father Winter will bring gifts that delight! We’ll feast and be merry and have snowball fights!

The Feast of Winter Veil has begun and will run through 6 AM on January 2nd. WoWHead has a full overview of the event which can be found here.

New for 2021
The Winter Veil Chorus Book is a new item this year. It is classed as a toy and can be purchased from the Smokywood Pastures vendor. Please remember that while all toys are ALLOWED that doesn’t necessarily mean they are safe for all challengers to use. Please scout out any toys you are not familiar with before using them on a live challenger.

New characters cannot be added to the site at this time. Even though our tracker cannot verify runs, that does not mean you have to refrain from participating in this event’s activities with your challengers. Below you’ll find this event’s guidelines for your challenge of choice.

The following information is for the Iron Man Challenge. For information on the challenge variants please see below.

Quests & Daily Quests
There are several quests and daily quests available during this event that you are allowed to complete. While you are allowed to complete them here are a few things to make note of:
– The quests Treats for Great-father Winter(H) and Treats for Greatfather Winter(A) involve cooking. You are NOT ALLOWED to learn cooking for this quest, however, you can buy the gingerbread cookies needed off the Auction House if any have been listed. The milk can be bought from vendors.
– The quests You’re a Mean One…(H) and You’re a Mean One…(A) involve retrieving Stolen Treats from The Abominable Greench. Once he has been slain the stolen goods spawn at the entrance of his cave. You do NOT need to kill the Greench in order to be able to snag the gifts when they spawn in. It is recommended that challengers keep a safe distance from this boss as there is a good chance he’ll one-shot your challenger.

– The quest Grumpus involves killing him and you must tag him to get credit. This quest may be too dangerous to bother with. When in doubt, scout it out.
