Side Quests
Sidequest: Present Hunt
Present Hunt is an everlasting Sidequest, similar to last year, where the player must run around the xmas world trying to search for Presents.
This year, Beandon decided to add a twist to the hunt and implement some new types of Presents to make it more exciting..
| Colour | Rarity | Special Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Grey | 393/400 (98.25%) | Rewards the player with a Present and has a 0.25% chance to spawn a block bug. |
| Green | 2/400 (0.5%) | Rewards the player with some  Experience alongside letting out a stream of Experience. |
| Blue | 2/400 (0.5%) | Rewards the player with some  Flux alongside letting out a stream of Flux. |
| Gold | 2/400 (0.5%) | Rewards the player with some  Coins alongside letting out a stream of Coins. |
| Black | 1/400 (0.25%) | Rewards the player with a random skin from a predefined loot table. |
This year, there is an approximate total of 170 possible spots where presents can appear with approximately 65 presents in circulation at a time.
Rewards
The player is rewarded upon reaching a milestone (5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 50, 75, 100...) with a random piece of loot from a predefined table.
Alongside this, if the player has completed more than 5 milestones, they can also be rewarded with a random amount of 
Christmas Crackers (maximum being dependant on the amount of milestones completed, up to a maximum of 16).
Daily Sidequest: Where's Max
In this sidequest, the player is required to try and find Max, the Grinch's dog. Max can spawn in one of 14 locations ranging from the caves to the ice rink. The player is rewarded upon finding Max. There is also no limit to how many times you can find Max, but there is a special reward on the 7th find. Upon finding Max, the player must wait another 24 hours before being able to find him again (finding Max during this downtime will open a dialogue stating that the player has found him too early).
Rewards
The player is rewarded with 16x 
Bone and 3 + (Total Finds ÷ 2) Christmas Cracker upon finding Max.
However, upon finding Max the 7th time, the reward is 1x Max's Ring and 1x 
Perfect Diamond instead!
Daily Sidequest: Deliveries
In this sidequest, the player is required to deliver 2 presents to 2 random civilians of the Xmas Village and/or Grimdale. Upon speaking to Jimmy for the first time, the player will be told who to deliver the present to. Once this is done, the player must return to Jimmy to repeat the process with a different civilian (or possibly the same one). Once the player has delivered both gifts and returns to Jimmy, they will be rewarded. Similar to the Max Quest, this quest can only be done once every 24 hours and a timer will be displayed in the dialogue if the player attempts to speak to Jimmy during downtime.
Possible delivery targets: Priest,
Rewards
The player is rewarded with 1x Present (Random Colour), 4x Candy Canes and 4x Peppermints upon completion.

Advent Calendar
Similar to last year, this year has an advent calendar which can be accessed via the /calendar command! This year, most of the items obtained are different and every 7 days has a special golden present for the player to open (typically rewarding the player with a very valuable item)...
This year, most days have an option between 2 possible items and similar to last year, presents can be opened up to 2 days later (Example: On the 4th day, I can open presents 2, 3 and 4).
