=== Wintersday 2010 ===
''As the days grow short, [[Tyria (world)|Tyria]] prepares for the new year. Decorations pop up around [[town]], and [[List of Wintersday collectors|holiday vendors]] sell [[Seasonal item|seasonal treats]]. The crisp air carries the scent of gingerbread and peppermint—and the occasional flying snowball! Not everything is nog and joy. Again, the gods [[Dwayna]] and [[Grenth]] clash over who will control the weather during the coming months. This year, however, [[Balthazar]] has pledged his support to the followers of Grenth. Their united purpose: a chilly period of mortal reflection. In response, [[Melandru]] has joined forces with Dwayna to preserve the seasonal gaiety and bring on an early spring. Pick a side, and celebrate the season. [[Wintersday]] is here!''

==== Wintersday Events ====
* Preparations have been made for [[Wintersday 2010]].
* [[Wintersday 2010#Quests|Holiday quests]] are now available throughout the land.
* Players can enter PvP Snowball Fights by speaking with [[Wintersday Priest]]s.
* 8v8 ATS-style Snowball Tournaments are accessible through [[guild hall]]s.

==== Snowball Fight Updates ====

==== Costumes ====
* [[Disciple_of_Melandru|Melandru]] and [[Agent_of_Balthazar|Balthazar]] [[costume]]s are available for purchase from the [[Guild Wars In-Game Store|In-Game Store]] and the [[NCsoft]] Store.

=== Bug Fixes ===
* Fixed a text bug for [[Patient Spirit]] that displayed the Healing amount as 0 in the French concise description.

=== Guild Wars Wiki notes ===
* This update added new quests for [[Hearts of the North]] ([[Norn Catering]] and [[The Wedding]]) and Wintersday ([[Fighting in a Winter Wonderland]] and [[Operation: Crush Spirits]]); it also introduced [[Keiran Thackeray|a new hero]].
