Wintertide
To view info about previous content from this Event, see Wintertide/Past Events. |
Wintertide is one of the Special Events in Knighthood. It was introduced on December 11, 2019.
Players enter the Sacred Portal and battle Frosten Goblins and special
Troll-type enemies to earn Event Points, which grant rewards at certain amounts. Side Stories and Roaming Monsters specific to Wintertide provide additional Event Points and other rewards.
The Wintertide Heroes are Lukin, Brutus, and Urmas. The Guild Wars monster types are Demon and Cult.
Special Monsters
- Red Rima: Roaming Monster spawning every four hours in the furthest two regions the player has unlocked so far.
- If a player hasn't unlocked the conquest node Rima spawns in a region yet, they will only get spawns in the previous region.
- Kramp Frosthorn: heavy troll that sides with the goblins.
- Frosten Warrior: light goblin that has a chance to inflict Weaken and flee afterwards.
- Frosten Alchemist: magical goblin who heals an ally before fleeing.
- Leppaludi: Troll Guild Boss that may be summoned by all guilds. Event Points are offered upon defeat, along with usual guild boss rewards.
- The Lost Knight: Roaming Monster unlocked after completing the event tree and "The End! Or is it?" quest. Spawning daily at 17:00 local time for 10 hours, he inflicts Expose when hit by the player.
Portal Battle Mode
When the Portal is open (every weekend, from Friday afternoon to Monday morning UTC), players will be able to choose from up to five portal levels, in relation to their current Knight level. Higher portal levels add a percentage of Event Points along with base amounts.
- Level 5
- Level 15: +20% extra points
- Level 25: +50% extra points
- Level 35: +100% extra points
- Level 45: +200% extra points
- Level 55: +300% extra points
Event Points in this mode are earned based on the amount and type of enemies defeated, regardless if winning or losing. Frosten Goblins that ran away during a battle do not count.

|
|
Clipped Wings | Did you know there's a Goblin named Flapwing? Flapwing! I bet he's thick as an anvil and twice as bad at small talk. Do us all a favor and make him eat dirt. | Defeat Grolak Flapwing |
