[[Patch Notes]]: NW.55.20151206a.3 =Patch Notes= ==Major Updates to the [[Winter Festival]]== *New: {{item|mythic|Beacon of Simril}} ([[Artifact]]) **A new artifact and [[refinement]] category

be awarded at rank 1 ({{uncommon}}) quality. **The "Beacon of Simril" may only be upgraded to rank 60 ({{epic}}) using "simril refinement" items. **The "Beacon of Simril" may be further upgraded from rank 60 ({{epic}}) to rank 140 ({{mythic}}) using normal refinement methods, this can be done regardless of whether the Simril event is active. **The "Beacon of Simril" may not be refined into another artifact, regardless of rank. *New and Updated Rewards **A new new [[companion]] "{{itemlink|Snowy Fawn (previous)}}" is available for purchase at the [[Winter_Festival#Simril_Store|Simril Store]].

Simril}}", reagents required in Simril refinement are now available for purchase at the Star of Fortune Store. **A new store is available at the refugee Darek Hammerstone in Twilight Tor. **A new mount, the "{{uncommon|Demon Sled}}", is now available for purchase from Darek Hammerstone. **The "{{item|rare|Gift of Simril}}" now grants your party members [[lumens]] in addition to ({{Light of Simril}}){{items|uncommon|Light of Simril|Lights of Simril}}. **The "{{itemlink|Starlight Parcel}}" has been updated with new rewards: ***{{itemlink|Starry Panther}} ***{{itemlink|Throne of Boo}}

occasionally grants {{rare|rank 5 enchantments}}, up from {{uncommon|rank 4}}. *[[Winter_Festival#Monsters_on_Ice_.2F_Demons_on_Ice|Monsters on Ice]] **The contest "Monsters on Ice" has been replaced
