TERA Offers Players The Chance To Spend Money This Christmas

Santa Claus is typically depicted as being, shall we say, plump. As a result, he probably has a, to put it mildly, generous posterior.

So if En Masse Entertainment wants you to hunt down fake Santas in TERA, does that mean you're going after a different brand of "Big Ass Monsters"? Maybe, but we'd be more inclined to just call the game's holiday event "Ass."

From now until Dec. 31, if you spot a false Santa in the world, you can hunt it down for the chance to receive a Locked Toy Box, which contains three Wintera tokens -- used to purchase items from a special holiday vendor -- as well as other random items. You'll need a key to open the Locked Toy Box, and you receive one per day. If you want more, you'll have to buy them from the cash shop.

So, let's re-iterate: You can participate in an activity that has a chance of dropping a loot box, most of which you'll need to pay money to open. In other words, if you play TERA, you might be granted the opportunity to spend money, if you're "lucky." Fun!

For more on this "event," and the times you might be so fortunate as to chance across something that may drop something you might want but you'll only know if you spend money on it, visit the TERA site.
