Can you see this paragraph? You can because our transparency is set to 100%. Yes, we have much-awaited news about this in these release notes. Apart from that QOL improvement, it is mainly a release that aims at bug fixes and small changes. Enjoy!
Jack Frost and Reindeers
Jack Frost has returned! Go collect his parts and put them together on the snow patches in the mountains.
The Snowman Gods in the mountains will drop Snowman Body, as well as different Carrots, Coals and Top Hats. Activate the Body first on the snow patch (marked blue on your map), and then build your own icy horror.
Jack Frost drops Oryxmas UT Weapons.
Buffs from Reindeer Reins have been activated.
Changes
You are now able to set the opacity down to 10% directly from the options menu
Skin Fixes
The Dye Mask of the Graceful Kensei Skin is now appearing properly in its front and side attack and side walk frames.
Changed the Tier of the Graceful Kensei Skin from Superior to the correct Greater.
Fixes
Fixed an issue with certain items requiring the wrong mark while crafting.
The following items now require Mark of the Forgotten King:
Warmonger
Dusky Catalyst
Valor
Primal Arcana
Sentinel's Sidearm
Polarity Poison
Noble Mandolin
Vanguard's Visage
Peacekeeper
The Forgotten Craftsmanship quest is therefore back to its intended rotation pre-bug discovery.
Fixed a problem with quicksand, sinking the character quicker than normal in the Tomb of the Ancients and the Ancient Ruins.
Permafrost Lord now has correct messages in chat after defeating him.
He’s one of the most joyful members of the community. You can find him streaming on Twitch and here, in this interview. Meed Deivian aka Deiviamos.
Name, Nationality and Age?
Deivian, Finland, 35 (born 1985)

It is time for another update regarding our upcoming events! Here you can once again see our event calendar for December and January. For a bigger version follow this link to the calendar.
As you have probably noticed, the Labyrinth Dwellers won the Channeling. For some details: if you were to only take the quests into account, Labyrinth gang wins with 53.81%. Add in dungeon completes (adjusted for frequency per realm), and the difference slightly decreased to 53.5%. We hope you enjoy both UTs and RNGesus treats you well in your hunt for sheaths!
Oryxmas is here! And we are bringing a lot of additional things with it. From our new class, the Kensei, to our new dungeon mods, you name it. It’s Oryx’s birthday so we are bringing a lot of new exciting things to RotMG like a new Shop, Veteran Skins, Skin Ranks, new Campaigns and Quests and more.

Any hidden talents or hobbies?
I have skill issues but these are not hidden.
How and when did you start playing RotMG?
9 years and 249 days ago I was in the shower, slipped, hit my head, and woke up in Realm of the mad god
Favorite Class, Dungeon, and Item?
My favorite class is Kensei. Jk I like wand classes but hate wands. In other words I like wand class abilities. (please rework sorc scepters to make them cool and aimable) The favorite item would be scripture as it is one of the most class-changing abilities in my opinion the game could use more cool UT's that change the class's purpose. Favorite dungeon music-wise- Pirate cave. Aesthetically- Crystal Cavern tied with The Shatters. Gameplay- O3 🙂
What other games do you play?
I play RAID SHADOW LEGENDS JOIN NOW to help me make money 🙂 jk don't that game is poop.
What makes RotMG unique?
(read the answer to this and other questions at the official RotMG blog).
