The Snowball Fight

The snowball fight begins approximately 45 minutes after the hour. Using your winter wonderland weapons, you need to defeat 150 snowmen across the map, then defeat the snow overlord on the pond.

While a bit of a challenge last year, it has been toned down a bit, making it easily completable in the time allotted. You can facilitate this by finding the hidden snowman army in the valley (see Kethwa's pictures above), placing a turret/mortar/gumdrop bomb, etc., in position BEFORE the mission begins, and then picking off any stragglers.



After this, it's often just a matter of 'pot-shotting' the individual snowmen around the map - but you can find small gatherings near the path leading to the "Fast and the Flurrious" race starting point and the misfit snowmen in a second valley near the army. For the most part, however, it's one or two snowmen, so there's some running to be done.


Once you've killed 150 snowmen, the snow overlord will appear on the pond. As you begin to get closer to the 150 count, start moving toward the pond; there are snowmen around the pond and they respawn quickly, and you will reach the 150 mark quickly.


Finally the overlord appears - but unlike last year, he's easy to kill. A team of 5 can take him out in minutes - but again, mortars, turrets, bombs, etc., will speed this considerable.


Rewards aren't impressive, but do reflect the speed and ease of the mission.
