Melted Snow Daddy Event

I wasn't really sure if I was going to do for the Melted Snow Daddy event, but I did, and I'm really glad I did! There's some stuff I had to learn the hard way:


  • The collected event items are NOT tradeable.
  • You can do the quest only one time per character. So don't use a silver/gold battery for collecting event items.
  • Don't use a Collector that isn't a +4 or +5 (I didn't have this problem, but several others did.)

There is some good news You get a bit of penya/EXP as well as a Jimbo the Snowman. What's a Jimbo the Snowman you say? He's a CS buff pet. and he's tradeable! How do you get a Jimbo the snowman? It's easy!

1.) Talk to Danny the Snowboy

2.) Go get a collector and start collecting for Danny's father.
I only spent about 700k in batteries,

3.) After collecting all the pieces, return to Danny.
4.) Reunite father and son.
His dad is sooo small!


Awesome! It's a pretty easy way to get a CS pet if you have a Collector+5. Don't skip up on the opportunity!

Happy FlyFFing!

(Edit: Quite a few people have been asking about drop rates and where to find the items, so I figured I'd clear it up.


  • All the items necessary for the event come from the collecting fields.
  • On average it has taken me about 6 hours.
  • The mittens have the LOWEST drop rate. Out of the 3 I've done, they were always the last item and took about 4 additional hours to get. (I've actually had to collect for about 20 hours for this last one! The key to getting the items is patience and consistency! Cheers/Yelling the item name over and over won't help you get them any faster. (Although it can be fun to do! :] )
  • I believe the top hat or nose has the second lowest drop rate.
  • Generally, you'll have all the items except for 1 within the first 2 hours.
I hope this helps!)

  1. I didn't finish this quest yet, and it's been... what? 4 days since I started? x)
    I got everything except the mittens, of course.

    Apparently most event quests are giving exp now. I've noticed so since the zombie event quests.

  2. I just tried it again and I spent 12 batteries trying to get the mittens. xD

    I tried to measure the EXP I got, but it was so non-existent I couldn't tell.

  6. Thanks for the comments!

    Haha, I think it'll be Tuesday at 10PM PST.
    It's going to take forever to sell them though! With everyone getting 2-4 snowmen a piece, I think I'll have to wait a few months. Heck, I'm working on my 5th right now.

    How many did you do so far?
