Winter Veil comes to World of Warcraft

Winter Veil is the annual winter holiday event for World of Warcraft players, and it is here!

It's a great parody of Christmas, with 'Grandfather Winter' giving you a quest to bring him Gingerbread Cookies, and the ever humorous 'Smokywood Pasture' gifts.

There's the annual quest to defeat the 'Greench'.

But this year there's a new twist. You can get a SANTA HAT! :) (Although it's not called that in the game.)

Blizzard has added a hat to the bosses in the heroic instances...a BoP (Bind on Pickup) hat that is red with white fluffy rim and a white ball on the top. No stats on it, but it looks awesome.

And remember that Winter Veil brings special opportunities to make gold, especially for low-level players. You can check out http://www.makewowgold.com to learn about the ways to cash in on Winter Veil (and other gold-making strategies while you're there).

So stop reading this blog and log into World of Warcraft to celebrate Winter Veil!
