“Papa” Phineas T. Rotostar welcomes you to the most magical time of the year! A time when we huddle together in front of the hyperfurnace with the ones we love, and then valuate that love by estimating the costs of the gifts we’ve purchased for each other. It’s consumerism at its best, and it’s also when the incredible, jaw-dropping, amazing deals begin to appear from the Protostar Corporation.
That’s right. It’s Protostar’s Gala Winterfest Extravaganza!
WildStar's first ever winter holiday event takes place from December 16 to January 1 2015. Players are invited to the corporate-sponsored, consumer-driven holiday (it wouldn't be Protostar otherwise, right?) that celebrates the most profitable of seasons. Protostar knows the value of a good marketing budget, and has gussied both capital cities up in full Winterfest trappings. These winter (cash grabs) wonderlands are centralized in the Parade Grounds in Illium and the Shindig Hollow in Thayd . But the centerpiece of the action is Protostar's SuperMall-in-the-Sky .
During the event, players will earn ColdCast by completing quests that can be spent at the "majestic, duty-free, majestic, profit-oriented, majestic, and gravity-defying" Protostar's SuperMall-in-the-Sky. If Winterfest is about anything, it’s about the joy of handing over money for stuff you need (or at least want a whole lot): toys, mounts, housing décor, costumes, and more! While most items sold by Protostar either come directly from the festivities—or purchased with ColdCash you earn from those festivities—new and time-limited exclusives are also available from the In-Game Store for NCoin or OmniBits (a free in-game currency earned alongside XP). While Winterfest celebrates the purchasing-spirit of the season, you don’t have to spend a dime to experience it.
