They fixed that mission bug today. So you can turn in sets of broken AFs for 2 Winter Charms @ the Toy Master.
It might be me, but the normal Charm drop rate on mobs seems better. Maybe the RNG just likes me today.
Other stuff done:
Added Snowball Roll and Blizzard costume transformations to the event store. (100 Winter Charms each)
Added High Five emote to the event store. (100 Winter Charms)
The new Emotes and Costume Transformations can also be obtained in the Striped Holiday Cracker. (I still have never seen anything but a Yellow Cracker)
Added Squall archetype to the event store. This Archetype will appear in the store later on in the event. (750 Charms)
Added additional exchange options in the Toy Master store. (random holiday costume piece = 2 Charms)
March of the Mecha Soldiers open mission now requires defeating the mecha soldiers to progress through various parts of the open mission. This is to address players rushing ahead and leaving other players behind.
I'll make a retraction. The stockings aren't completely worthless. You can get gifts from them to give to other players and transmorgrification devices (toy cat & other stuff). Otherwise, they just drop the typical candy assortment. Eh... there are snowballs and a mistletoe, too, that makes people kiss you.
So, there's some fun stuff. No Charms though.
Charms come from the presents dropped around the world. The presents have either Charms, Stockings, Boxes, Crackers, or Misfit Toys to fight. The Toys become Charms, Stockings, Crackers, or Boxes when you kill them. Boxes have the broken AFs for the Toy Master missions.
