The seasonal favorite of most Captains is making a return to Star Trek Online. None other than Q is inviting everyone to his Winter Wonderland for some fun and of course, prizes. This year the top prize is a Tier 6 Starship.
This year’s celebration is going to be like the one last year. Meaning, it’s integrated with the recently released Event Interface, which is part of the Mission Journal. Like last year as well, players can work on their Daily Progress by participating in any of these activities:
- Fastest Game on Ice
- Klingon Ice Fishing
- Tides of Ice
- The Fast and the Flurrious
- Cones of Conduct
- The Kramp’Ihri

Vanity Pets
The holidays often mean the cold but two new vanity pets could help everyone warm up. The Warnog Rescue Targ, for example, carries enough Warnog that can fill a Klingon army.
