While speaking to a starter NPC in one of the three nations may improve the possibility of attaining the gifts, it has been proven that it is NOT a requirement. Simply start out by following the three Tigers running around Auspicious Tiger, Auspicious Cub, and Auspicious Tigress and find the lead NPC Galka Galger, he will be assisted by an NPC Tarutaru named Taruger. Now trade Galger anything and I mean anything! He takes anything from Christmas candies to Muddy Bar Tabs. As well as receiving your item, you will also receive a random buff. You can still receive buffs even if you already possess all the items listed below or have full inventory at the time of trading. It can take several trades to receive the following items:

New Year's Gift

Snowman Knight

Snowman Mage

New Year's GiftEdit

Talk to one of the Event Starter NPCs in the 3 nations.

• Bring a New Year's Gift to the Event Starter NPC and choose the second option to obtain the Battledore.
• Bunta, Bastok Markets (D-11)
• Jeanparmand, Northern San d'Oria (D-8)
• Pyru-Copyru, Port Windurst (B-4)
  • You need to speak with the event starters to trade the item in, even if you have already obtained a New Year's Gift.

Options:

1. Let you ask Grandpa a question.
2. Give you something from my pocket.
3. Tell you more about Grandpa.

After obtaining the Battledore, on subsequent trades you will receive fireworks when selecting option 2.

• Note: If you trade the New Year's Gift back to Galger, or you "use" the Gift, you will receive Fishing Imagery Support for an hour.

Copy of "Hoary Spire"Edit

• Equip the Battledore and board the Windurst-Jeuno Airship. Travel may originate in either Windurst or Jeuno for this portion of the event.
• Locate the NPC Dilauriome on the West side of the upper deck. Talk to Dilauriome while having the Battledore equipped. Bring him two Black Ink and one Bast Parchment to obtain Copy of "Hoary Spire".
