You'll find the elves everywhere, but the snowmen only in snowy areas.
Both types have a chance to drop certain rare items.
Save the Elves by beating them down!

Knock the elves out of the evil spell that has been cast on them and they will leave behind a gift. Elves have a chance to drop Christmas treasure maps, which will contain additional holiday coins and the chance for a rare item.
You can not pick up the gift boxes themselves.

This year, Christmas treasure maps have a chance of being hued, rather than every map being hued.
Christmas treasure maps do not require any skill in cartography or lockpicking. They are in new locations.
Reward Vendor
You can find the reward vendor by West Britain Bank. Rewards this year:

Other Misc Changes:
