Quest Overview

Sclavus Santa and his Moarselves have been taken hostage by an imposter.

Walk Through

Head to Sclavus Santa's House at 69.8S, 25.6E.
- Route 1: Use a portal to Frost Haven if someone has a tie.
- Route 2: Use a Citadels Portal Device at a mansion until you get to the Ridge Citadel.
- Route 3: From Qalaba'r, take the Qalabar Oasis Settlement at 74.8S, 17.8E (5 click run, some mountaineering).
Once inside the dungeon run straight ahead to a room full of presents on the ground.
Whoever will be solving the puzzle should talk to the nearby Moarself. They will then have 5 minutes to solve a puzzle by opening presents and find the matching items. This puzzle is on a 5 minute timer. You can only make 3 mistakes. If you fail, you have to start over again and the puzzle resets.
- See the list of solutions to the puzzle below. There are several possible puzzle layouts.
After solving the puzzle, everyone should go straight and talk to Santa Sclavus (NPC) who tells you to use the nearby door to get a present.
The door is actually an invisible portal to a hot drop basement area. You drop into an mazy area with Gumdrops, a variant of Knathtead. The Gumdrops like to chain-cast war magic, so be prepared.
Head east, going up ramps whenever you find them. You will find an area with prison cells and Moarselves trapped inside.
[Optional] Lockpicking the doors and talking to these NPCs (they will disappear after this) will give additional xp and luminance when talking to the Santa Sclavus (NPC) at the end of the quest.
Continue heading upward until you come to a locked door. The key is dropped by one of the nearby Gumdrops.
Through the door is a large room filled with Rolling Snowballs of Death. When ready, each character should move carefully cross through the room.
- Look at the pattern, some will run from left to right, others from right to left.
- You can follow directly behind one ball, to jump to the next row. Also, there is space between each row where no snowball can hit you.
- The exit is in the corner the farthest away from you (NE)
- Note: if you die, you will have to repeat the first parts of the quest to get back.
The next area contains Uber Penguins, perched Snowman Sentries, and locked reinforced doors (diff 600).
There are 3 penguins in each section, one of which drops a 2 use door key. All the keys look the same, but are only usable for the next 2 doors directly ahead.
Kill each group of penguins, then move into the safety of the rooms to avoid being attacked by the Snowmen above.
After several rooms and groups of Penguins, you will arrive in a safe room without creatures. Run up the ramp and use the lever to open the door. You will now be back in area similar to the early part of the quest.
In a nearby room is the boss Imposter Santa Sclavus, guarded by two killable Moarselves and four Gumdrops.
Santa Sclavus drops no loot, but after he dies, the door behind him opens. There, you will find the real Santa Sclavus who will reward you with xp, luminance and a pet Gumdrop.
- Note: The door will stay open for about 5 minutes. It will then close prior to the respawn of the imposter Santa Sclavus.
