Guide to New World Winter Convergence Event and an overview of all activities you can participate in and the rewards during the festival!
The Winter Convergence Festival first arrived with Update 1.2. It has multiple parts to it, which all add up to a pretty well-rounded event. It can also be incredibly rewarding but will take a bit of time to get there.
This guide will break down all the ways you can progress through the Winter Convergence Festival Event and show you how to get the most out of it.
The Guide is up-to-date for Patch 1.8

What is the Winter Convergence Festival Event
The Winter Convergence Festival Event is New World’s seasonal Holiday Event. This Event will see you helping a Yeti, referred to as the Winter Wanderer, recover their memories and stop the Winter Warriors. The Winter Warriors being other Yetis that wish to make Aeternum “Forever Winter”. There are many ways to help the Winter Wanderer, all of which can reward you with unique items and seasonal loot.
For 2022, the event started with the launch of Update 1.8 on December 6, 2022. There is no end date specified in the patch notes, so it’ll likely be around the full month of December, into early January as it has in the past. In 2021, the event ran until January 6th so we could reasonably expect a similar end time.
Let’s talk about everything this event has to offer. There’s a quest line, which has you facing off against entirely new Elite enemies, all of which are named and do have their own unique drops. There’s a temporary new addition to towns, Trees of Light, which can be upgraded via Town Board missions to help accelerate your progress in the event.
The primary goal of each and every part of this event is to earn Winter Tokens which can be spent in the Winter Convergence Festival Shop, available from the Winter Wanderer in any Winter Village. These locations are detailed in the next section.
Winter Token
Premium Winter Token
The Winter Convergence Festival Shop also expands its offerings as you increase your Reputation with the Winter Wanderer. Everything you do to earn Winter Tokens will give you progress towards ranking up this shop. This includes Dailies like the Tree of Light, the short quest line that’s part of the event and all the other festivities.
How to start the Winter Convergence Festival Event
All of the Winter Convergence Festival event quests will start from the Winter Wanderer, a friendly Yeti that also serves as the Event Shop Vendor.
They can be located in any Winter Village. The Winter Villages are found in the following locations:
The Southern part of Monarch’s Bluff, the Dreadscythe Spirit Shrine is also in close proximity for easy access.
The Eastern Part of Everfall, the Bearclaw Spirit Shrine is also in close proximity for easy access.
Northeastern Brightwood, the Wolfbough (Fort Alazar) Spirit Shrine is near by for easy access.
And Northern Weaver’s Fen, which has the Mallory’s Refuge Spirit Shrine nearby for easy access.
These are all paced to be spread out enough so that every territory has one nearby, but doesn’t require one in every territory. Most are conveniently placed near a Spirit Shrine for easy access.
Winter Convergence Festival Quests Walkthroughs
In this segment you will find detailed step-by-step instructions on how to start and complete the Introductory quests and the Elite Enemy quests available during the event.
Introductory Quests
This quest line will slowly introduce you to each part of the event’s offerings, and it’s recommended to be at least Level 25 to start this, though you will need to be Level 60 to fully complete it. These first few, which we’re calling the Introductory Quests for simplicity, show you the mechanics of progressing the event. It Introduces the Lost Presents, Gleamite Meteors and Tree of Light. Completing these will get you up to Rank 2 with the Vendor, with a bit of extra.
Lost Presents
Lost Presents are found all over near the roads as you travel Aeternum. Each Present you collect will go to your inventory as a Recovered Present. There are some rare ones that will gives you 20 Recovered Presents instead. These are marked on your compass when they are within 100 meters.
You can bring these to a Winter Hut in the Winter Villages to trade 3 Recovered Presents for a Winter Token. These will often be your go-to way to grind additional Winter Tokens.
Collecting Lost Presents only awards 5 Event Reputation, unless you luck into the larger one, which grants 25 Event Reputation.
Gleamite Meteors
Gleamite Meteors are a new Night-only event. They’ll spawn by dropping from the sky with a loud crash (very hard to miss if in the area, as it can be heard up to 200+ meters away) and glow extremely brightly after landing. Each Meteor Landing will create a few Gleamite Chunks and a several Gleamite Shards.
Gleamite Chunks can be collected with a Pickaxe and reward you with 15 Gleamite and 25 Event Reputation, while shards can be collected for a single Gleamite and 5 Event Reputation. You get roughly 75 Gleamite per Meteor, assuming nobody else is gathering it. If it is contested, try to get as many Chunks as you can before grabbing Shards.
Much like Lost presents, they can be traded in at Winter Huts in Winter Villages at a rate of 6 Gleamite to 1 Winter Token. There’s also special food that can be purchased for 2 
Winter Tokens each which increases a stat of choice and doubles your Gleamite gathered for one hour. This can make a single Gleamite Meteor worth around 150 Gleamite, or roughly 25 tokens.
Tree Of Light
A Tree of Light can be found in Every Settlement, typically replacing existing fountains or statues. These also have presents under them which vary by which tier the Tree is. Collecting these present from the tree also rewards a daily bonus to your reputation with the Winter Wanderer. These will be the largest daily source of your reputation gain if you have the time or Azoth to spare, awarding up to 1650 if all territories max their Tree of Light.
The first three Trees of Light you collect will also come with some extra bonuses, awarding both a Diamond Gypsum and their presents also contain a Lockbox with 100 Coins. Diamond Gypsum are part of the newly reworked Expertise System also released in Patch 1.2. These first three Tree of Light visits will also have a small chance of rewarding a Winter Convergence Festival Weapon or Armor Pattern, in addition to the gift and lockbox rewards.
Tier 1 of the Tree of Light has a Forlorn Gift Pile, which awards 50 Reputation with the Winter Wanderer and a Hastily Wrapped Present. Opening this Present will award 1 Winter token. Collecting all 11 of these will net you 550 Reputation for the event.
Tier 2 of the Tree of Light has a Magnificent Gift Pile, which awards 100 Reputation with the Winter Wanderer and a Beautifully Wrapped Present. This Present contains 3 Winter Token and has a chance to also give 1 Premium Winter Token. Collecting all 11 at this tier of these will net you 1100 Reputation for the event.
Tier 3 of the Tree of Light is the final tier and has an Exquisite Gift Pile, which awards you 150 Reputation with the Winter Wanderer and an Exquisitely Wrapped Present. This Present contains 5 Winter Tokens but may also contain a Premium Winter Token. It has a slightly higher chance to provide a Premium Token over a Beautifully Wrapped Present. Collecting all 11 of these will net you 1650 Reputation for the event.
If at any point you collect your daily reward from a Tree of Light, and then it’s upgraded, you can collect it again. However this will only provide the difference between the tier you collected originally and the tier you’re recollecting from.
Similarly to Trees of Light, each Winter Village also has a Bountiful Gift Sack, which can be claimed for 125 reputation per day, for a total of 500 per day.
Town Board Missions
With the Tree of Light being part of towns and having Tiers, it has some of it’s own special Town Board Missions. Often these can be simple collect ones that aren’t different than normal. There are however a handful of unique tasks like making Stone Ornaments or Iron Tree Hooks.
Regardless of the task, each time you complete these, you get a fairly small reward of Coin, Town Rep and XP as usual. You also gain 5 Reputation with the Event Vendor. These are fairly easy to stock pile for as well, as they often ask for the same items over and over.
They’ll often ask for Stone Ornaments (made from Stone Blocks), Iron Tree Hooks (made from Iron Ingots), Timber, Stone Bricks, or Linen. The whole idea of these to upgrade the tree by Decorating it.
Elite Enemy Quests
Most of the big enemies in these quests will be Yetis, but much less friendly than our Winter Wanderer friend. We’ll detail the quest progression and then cover our new foes in detail so you have everything you need to success in this quest.
Yeti Trio – Level 25 Elites
The first of these Elite Quests send us after three named Yetis. All of these are Level 25 and it’s worth taking some time with them to learn their attacks, as all the Yetis you’ll face will have the same attacks they can do.
First is Rames, who resides just West of Everfall’s Winter Village in Rames’ Refuge, just Southwest from Bearclaw Shrine.
Hari, who resides in Southern Monarch’s Bluff, in Hari’s Hollow which is just North of Monarch’s Bluff Winter Village and the Dreadscythe Spirit Shrine, which makes it fairly easy to reach
Finally there’s Sunit, who resides in Light’s Crown Lair, which is in Western’s First Light, near the border to Cutlass Keys. This unfortunately means that unlike the other two, your options for getting here quickly are Quick Traveling to either Cutlass Keys or the Las Torres Lookout Spirit Shrine in First Light and running from there.
Once you’ve defeated these three, you’ll be onto the second set of three yetis. These ones are much higher level and can be tough to solo without learning their attacks.
High Level Yetis – Level 61-65 Elites
This time you’ll be going after two yeti that each hold half of a rune that allows you to trigger the “Winter Warrior” Fight. The first starts at Level 61 and the final one ends at level 65. These can be fairly dangerous solo as they are still Gold Elites, making them fairly bulky and far easier to tackle in a group.
First up is Sesa, a Level 61 Yeti who resides in Serenity Sanctuary in central Ebonscale Reach. The quickest way to get here is to Quick Travel to the Pilgrim’s Rest Spirit Shrine and make you way into the deeper section of Serenity Rise. This are is often a hotspot for Corruption as well, which can make even heading to Sesa a dangerous task solo.
Then we’re after Isvari, a Level 62 Yeti who resides in Isvari’s Isolation located in Northern Edengrove not too far from the border to Shattered Mountain. The quickest way to get here is generally by Quick Traveling to the Gatherer’s Road Spirit Shrine and following the road North, then going East just before we turn towards Shattered Mountain.
After defeating these two, it’s on to the final location to face the Winter Warrior, a Level 65 Yeti. The Winter Warrior resides in Spelunker’s Demise in Shattered Mountain, a cave directly north of Mountainrise Outpost.
This cave needs to be cleared before you can place the rune to summon the Winter Warrior. All the enemies in this area are level 65 Elites, including the spirits outside. We won’t be detailing them as they’re not special outside of always having Cold Aura. All other enemies will be detailed below though
Once you’ve defeated this final Yeti, you’ve completed the questline for the Winter Convergence Festival Event and gained a few thousand Reputation in the process!
Winter Warriors and Their Attacks
Now that we’ve detailed the quest, let’s talk about the foes you’ll encounter and the attacks they can use as you fight them. We’ll start with the smallest and work our way up the chain.
Avalancher
These ones aren’t dangerous whatsoever on their own, as they’re literally rocks created by certain attacks or by defeating Shivers. You may want to clear them quickly as they interact with attacks from Winter Warriors and Frostgrips.
When hit with a Frostgrip’s Frost Zone, they will re-emerge as Shivers, regardless of what spawned them. They will never be Elite, but will match the level of the zone.
When hit by a Winter Warrior’s Shockwave however, they create another radial Shockwave from their location that echoes the damage of the initial shockwave. This will hurt, especially if you get hit by both the shockwave and this echoed shockwave.
Shiver
Shivers are very basic enemies, not really any more dangerous than basic Lost, and utilizing similar attacks.
They’re primarily melee units, but can every so often use a short range Ice Vomit Attack that deals damage and create a small patch of slowing ground.
Rimewolves
Rimewolves won’t be until the later trio of Winter Warriors, and they are just standard Rimewolves. No different than the ones found in Great Cleave.
Frostfang
Frostfangs are a more threatening melee unit, having faster attacks and higher damage compared to Shivers.
These enemies only have two things you have to watch out for, a quick Whirling Blade Attack, that launches them forward. This attack can hit pretty hard, while hitting quite a few times and inflicting Weaken.
The other thing to watch out for is them casting their Empowering Buff. While this only affects them, it makes them incredibly lethal. Make sure you interrupt them if you see them stand still and cross their sickles.
Frostgrip
Frostgrips are a particularly dangerous threat as they are ranged mages that can Root with just their basic attacks, which can be fatal if you’re also fighting a Winter Warrior and have aggro of both. On top of those attacks they have a couple dangerous spells.
The first spell to watch out for is their Frost Zone. This spell creates a massive Slowing area that’s roughly an 8 meter radius around the Frost Grip. While it doesn’t do any damage it does however makes it hard to avoid attacks by any means other that dodging or blocking. This attack will also turn any Avalanchers in the radius into Shivers.
Their other spell is Boulder Lob. This is a ranged spell that lobs an Avalancher at you, stunning you and dealing damage if it hits directly. It’s a slow projectile which makes it easy to avoid.
With this Spell creating an Avalancher, and having another that can turn them into Shivers, along with all their crowd control it’s clear they make an attempt to slowly overwhelm you with minions. Though with Shivers being fairly weak, their crowd control is more of a threat when accompanied by any other unit.
Winter Warrior (Yeti)
The Winter Warriors themselves have a pretty diverse set of close, mid, and long range attacks.
The first attack we’ll talk about is the Boulder Toss. Much like a Frostgrip’s Boulder Lob, is deals damage a stuns on a direct hit, but will still spawn an Avalancher if it misses. Unlike the Frostgrip though, this is an insanely fast projectile. You’ll want to be ready to dodge soon after the boulder is above their head as shown below.
The next Attack is a simple Melee Swipe, much like the attack of existing Ravagers, they will charge into range if they decide to use it. It has a very similar dodge timing as well, despite the animation being slightly quicker.
Let’s talk about their other close-mid range attack, Ice Breath. This attack whille have the Winter Warrior drop to its hands and knees, and inhaling for a couple seconds before releasing a large cone of damage that also Roots anyone that it damages.
During the part of the animation shown above where they tuck their head towards their chest is when you should be ready to dodge. As soon as they bring their head up they’ll release this attack from this position.
The last attack that we need to be aware of is their Icy Shockwave attack. The Winter Warrior prepares a spell in one of its hands briefly, before slamming crushing the condensed winter energy it creates to create a shockwave.
This Icy Shockwave hits a very wide area in front of them, which can span the entire length of any cave you may fight them in (~15m). On top of this hitting really hard, you also need to be aware of where any Avalanchers are as they’ll create a similar but smaller range shockwave that will often hurt just as much.
Winter Warrior (World Boss)
Added with the 2022 Winter Convergence Festival is the Winter Warrior, for real this time! This massive world boss spawns in various areas in Brightwood, Brimstone Sands, Edengrove, Ebonscale Reach, Great Cleave, and Shattered Mountain. This World Boss has a massive health pool, and some dangerous attacks. AGS recommended tackling it with 20+ players.
It’s highly recommended to use Fire Damage for this fight as the Winter Warrior is Angry Earth, making it exceptionally vulnerable to Fire. This will make your takedown much more efficient overall.
Surprisingly, the boss itself isn’t very lethal unless you’re a melee weapon user. In the encounters I participated in, it seems to just get stunlocked or stunned repeatedly, possibly even bugged. With enough players present, this big yeti will go down in just a couple minutes.
It uses the same arsenal of attacks as the Yetis, just with slightly bigger AoEs due to his larger size. The common attacks being Melee Swipes, Ice Breath, and their Roar in combination with many Avalancher Spawns.
For most melee builds and tanks especially, the melee attacks aren’t super threatening. There will often be enough supports present to make your survival easy enough. The real threat seems to be getting overwhelmed by adds, as he summons tons of them. Usually, he spawns 6-8 at a time and these need to be pulled to the middle to be AoE’d down for convenience.
For ranged and magic builds, your main threat will be accidentally hitting adds and taking aggro from them. Outside of that, you only need to be aware of your position to not get hit by Ice Breath or detonating Avalnachers, should you have one between you and the Winter Warrior.
He doesn;t do the Boulder Toss, but instead will spawn several Avalanchers at once, dropping them from the sky, but those rarely do enough damage to take you out.
Defeating this World Boss will always reward you with at least 1 Warrior’s Hailspike. These Warrior’s Hailspike can be traded in for 10 Winter Tokens each.
Warrior’s Hailspikes drop in multiples of 1, 2, 3, and 5 at a time. A quantity of 2 seems to be the most common, with the other amount being much less frequent. This also means each takedown on the Winter Warrior
Winter Convergence Festival Shop Offerings
The Winter Convergence Festival Shop is available in any Winter Village. Look for the Winter Wanderer.
Like any faction vendor does, this event shop also has 5 different ranks to it, each with some interesting rewards.
All Ranks – Winter Hut Trade-Ins
Along with the rates for Lost Presents and Gleamite shown above, this special shop lets you also convert Premium Winter Tokens and Winter Tokens as well. This unfortunately costs Vials of Suspended Azoth to make Premium Winter Tokens this time around, making it a less viable option for newer players.
This conversion also works in the opposite direction, should you get a Premium Token early on from a Tree of Light or Quest and want to get more early Gleamite Attunement Snacks.
Outside of very early Premium Winter Tokens from quests, this conversion is less beneficial as it only gets easier to get Winter Tokens as the event progresses and Trees of Light get upgraded.
Rank 1 – Reveler
The First Rank, despite not having much, has one of the more important items you can get early in the event, Gleamite Attunement Snacks.
These handy little snacks increase its predetermined stat attribute by 1 – 33 based on Level, while also doubling the Gleamite you gain from gathering Gleamite Meteors.
On average, with close enough spawn, this can bring two meteors up from ~125 Gleamite up to 250 Gleamite, giving you a total of 25 Winter Tokens (or enough for a Premium Token).

This means to get at least one of each housing item here, you’ll need 6 Premium Winter Tokens (150 Winter Tokens).
Each Instrument Skin costs 2 Premium Tokens as well, for a total of 10 Premium Winter Tokens (250 Winter Tokens) for all of them. In total you’ll need at least 16 Premium Winter Tokens (400 Winter Tokens) to purchase one of everything.

This their features 7 Housing items in the Snowcapped Dining Table, Snowcapped Bookcase, Snowcapped Chandelier, Snowcapped Bed, Snowcapped Boar Sculpture, Snowcapped Stag Sculpture, and the Festive “Toy” Rabbit. Additionally, you can get another Festive skin here, this time the Winter Wanderer’s Cloak for your chest slot, as well as the Give Present emote. These cost a total of 66 Premium Winter Tokens (1,650 Winter Tokens) to get one of each.
This also marks the first appearance of the Purchasable Armors, though they are being given as generic Patterns. This does also come as a much more welcomed reduced cost of only 10 Winter Tokens each, down from 20+ for the low GS Epic Gear that was here previously.

Rank 5 – Holiday Regent
This Rank has the most unique rewards, while still having the Winter Gear. This time As 600 Gear Score Winter Gear Patterns.
These also start costing Premium Winter Tokens at this Rank, costing 2 Premium Winter Tokens (50 Winter Tokens) per item, with the Chest armors and weapons costing 5 Premium Winter Tokens (125 Winter Tokens) .
In addition to the Winter Gear, there’s also Patterns for the Winter Gear, letting you craft a GS 500+ Weapon or Armor with a more festive look. Since these only cost 1 Winter Token, they can be well worth the cost, serving more or less as a Free Weapon or Armor Skin, but not a guaranteed GS 600 like the other Patterns introduced this patch.
Speaking of Armor Skins, this rank also has a few new and would-be Cash Shop items available for Premium Tokens. These consist of the the Winter Wanderer’s Helm, Winter Wanderer’s Flowing Cloak, Winter Wanderer’s Helm, Winter Warrior’s Helm, Winter Warrior’s Gloves, and Winter Scale Coat for Armors. These are 10-15 Premium Winte Tokens each, totaling 55 Premium Winter Tokens (1,375 Winter Tokens) for all the Armor Skins.
Additionally, there’s three new emote this year, Gleamite Juggle, Throw Snow, and Shruggy Dance. Finally, rounding out the cosmetic items is a Camp Skin, called The Winter Gem. The Emotes are 10 Premium Winter Tokens each, and the Camp Skin is another 15 for a total cost of 45 Premium Winter Tokens (1,125 Winter Tokens) for these new goodies.
Finally, this rank also has its own unique furniture like the other ranks. This set consists of the newly added Snowcapped Yeti Sculpture and the Wittl’ Winter Whiskers Sculpture. One of each of these items will cost you a hefty 25 Premium Winter Tokens (625 Winter Tokens), which is in line with most of the newer items or larger decorations.
| ITEM | TYPE | |
|---|---|---|
| Snowcapped Yeti Sculpture | Decoration | 10 |
| Wittl’ Winter Whiskers | Decoration | 15 |

How to Get the Most from your Winter Tokens during the event
I highly recommend breaking down the first Premium Winter Token you get from the quest line to pick up some easy Gleamite Attunement Snacks. These will bring you a ton of Reputation to level the event quickly and lots of Tokens in return for this early investment.
It’s very worth learning a few Meteor spawn locations before committing to using them and trying to get at least 2-3 meteors per night while this buff is active. This will let you progress very quickly and build a huge stock of tokens up for later. After this, it’ll be all about saving up to get the things you want.
I also highly recommend walking between destinations when possible, especially at night. Lost Presents are scattered near roads, and never too far from any given road. These will slowly increase your event rank, but more importantly will be an easy way to get tokens as these respawn fairly often. At Night, you’ll also have a good chance of finding Gleamite Meteors which further boost your progress and Token hoarding.
When you get to Rank 5, if you’re not already 600+ Expertise, the Patterns can be a good way to get an immediate boost in power and defense, assuming your crafting skills are high enough to craft them. These don’t disappear and cna be a decent way of giving yourself and your expertise bumps as well to be able to farm higher drops without too much time investment early on. Stock up!
Then Getting the Cash Shop-esque items early is also a solid pick up, as these are be unique to the event shop and not directly purchasable. So putting priority on them is a good idea in case they don’t return should this event come around again. The stock of items is already getting pretty large at this point, so there’s no guarantee they will keep them around for next time.
Finally, get any housing items that interest you and spend the rest of your Tokens on patterns and only patterns. Chances are even if you can’t craft them, you can find someone that can. Just keep in mind that if your Expertise for the items will need to be 600 to get the full strength of the gear if you don’t craft it yourself. There’s also the potential of them becoming more valuable after the event ends.
This concludes our guide on New World’s Winter Convergence Festival Event.
