Overview
Eva Levante is the event vendor. She can be found across from the landing zone in the Tower. She will give players The Dawning introductory quest, as well as Eva's Holiday Oven 2.1. With ingredients gathered by defeating enemies in various ways, players must use the oven to bake cookies, which can be given to characters throughout the game world as gifts. The Cookie Delivery Helper quest requires players to bake and deliver every cookie at least once.
During the event, completing activities will grant more leveling progress than usual to equipped crafted weapons. Defeating enemies with Snowballs will also contribute progress to all equipped crafted weapons.[2]
Event Card
The Event Card can be accessed from the Quests tab in the Director next to the Seasonal Challenges. It can also be found on Eva Levante's vendor screen, or through the Tower icon on the Destinations map in the Director.
