It’s time to save Christmas! Some of Lakan’s evil minions have used his nefarious illusion magic and transformed themselves into fat little Santas. Now these phonies are running amok, spreading out across the lands and stealing presents from the children of all races and creeds. Find and hunt down these sham Santas before they cause any more havoc!
As if that weren’t bad enough, these scoundrels are obviously planning something big. They’ve got hordes of combat items stashed away in giant crystals which they’ve disguised as Christmas decorations. Destroy these Dominoliths, loot their contents, and make sure the peoples of Arborea can enjoy the festive season in peace! Fortunately, the crystals aren’t capable of defending themselves against your attacks, but opening them won’t be a walk in the park – they’re extremely resilient!

Let’s Go Hunting – The Monster FAQ
In which area/channel can I find the enemies?
Dominolith: The crystal will appear in a random zone and channel within the areas marked above. It will remain in the area for up to one hour.
Santas: Several small opponents are summoned simultaneously in all the marked zones and available channels. If one of them is killed, he will reappear at a different location.
I’ve found a target. What now?
Dominolith: Once you've tracked down a crystal, it's advisable to contact your guild or inform other players via the global chat. The Dominolith can withstand several million blows, making it too tough for a single hero to crack before the time runs out and it disappears.
Santas: If you find one of the small monsters, there's no need to dither as these are easy enough to defeat yourself. It doesn't matter whether you’re level 11 or 65. After two or three hits, they'll be automatically defeated.
Will there be rewards?
Dominolith: The crystal will be summoned automatically. Once you’ve opened it, all players involved will receive a reward via Parcel Post. You'll find further details below.
Santas: The monsters disguised as Santas will similarly appear automatically. Each blow against them will give you a chance to pick up an item, but not every blow will cause something to drop.
Is there anything else I need to know?
The crystals can be attacked by players of any level. Although they can’t fight back, they’ll withstand a certain number of blows before opening up. Whether you’re level 11 or level 65, every blow counts!
Also note that Dominoliths send the reward by Parcel Post, while Santas only leave behind a reward for their attackers.
