↖ Introduction

A quiet surprise from the New World team has brought the Lunar New Year 2024 to Aeternum. Hidden away in the Public Test Realm (PTR), a festive event is waiting for you to join that will test your mettle and reward you with lots of loot. Its theme revolves around Ebonscale Reach, as rich as it promises its rewards.

 

↖ Fortune Gift Sack

Starting this spree off is the Fortune Gift Sack. Here's what you can expect to find:

• 2 Dark Matter
• 2 Diamond Gypsum
• 88 Gold (Gift of Fortune)
• Some Silk
• Random Uncut Gem
• Dragon Fish
• Different Dyes

The contents are a mix of fixed and random items ensuring every sack comes with little surprises.

 

↖ Feast and Fete

Head up towards the town near the trading post and there is a Feast Plate. Although these foods are older Tier 5 dishes they still make a great treat for adventures. And however, none of them beats the true gastronomic star which is Hot Pot dish.

 

↖ Spicy Hot Pot

Not just any ordinary Hot Pot but it's spicy Hot Pot that relies on one major ingredient – Red Meat. But not just red meat it is Red Meat with capital 'R' and 'M'. When you activate this dish you will get;

• 25% boost in Faction Token gain,
• A 15% bonus for Gathering yield,
• All for generous 60 minutes.

 

This could be a game changer for both resource hunters and Faction Token grinders and guess what? It stacks with proficiency boosters (though you didn't hear that from us).

 

↖ Tribute to the Dragon

Things start warming up in the 'Tribute to the Dragon' activity. This event, which is located at Imperial Palace among normal mobs, will require you to collect things like wine and an ancient scroll. Present these items at a shrine and then be ready for waves of mobs leading to boss fight which rewards you with;

• Dragon Scale Gear
• Another Fortune's Gift Sack
• And a tune to the Dragon's Blessing for yet another gift sack

 

This event is repeatable, but the tribute reward is a daily delight.

 

↖ Dragon Scale Armor

The Dragon Scale Armor set has raised some eyebrows. It is heavy, it has Constitution locked in (and it''s healthy), and "Refreshing". However, there's a catch – its gear score is capped at 675 instead of 700. Whether this was an oversight or an intentional choice only time will tell. But now it might be worth collecting in case of future upgrades.

 

Final Thoughts

New World Lunar New Year event offers plenty of surprises that could significantly boost your gameplay. Stocking up on Spicy Hot Pots or getting into Dragon Scale Armor are among many things that you can do. Remember, these rewards are ripe for the taking but won't last forever. So log in, join the festivities and make the most of this Lunar New Year event!
