Hi folks!

Happy New Year to all and welcome to January! We're saying goodbye to stockings (though your platinums should all now be full - enjoy!), and welcoming back cryptic chests!

Chests can be obtained on the Aetolia website (www.aetolia.com/credits), and opening one will award one or more prizes from a wide selection as outlined below.

Every 500 Cryptic Chests opened will trigger a global prize where one of the next 50 to be opened will contain a bonus of 500 credits on top of the other prizes!

Here's what you might find inside:

- Chocolate bags, elemental globes, fireworks, customisation certificates, iron coins, and a low chance at salvage.

- Credit prizes ranging from 15 - 250.

- Various artifacts valued between 50 and 2000 credits.

- Several new minipets: a smelly baby skrell, a spawn of Khtapssos, a fledgling war spider, a tiny Underbelly parasite, an irradiated phoenix hatchling, and a diminutive swamp miscreation

- Coffers with pieces for the crystal set, these trade in for 30 credits per piece! Available options are: crystal_bullhorn, crystal_tortoise, crystal_pike, crystal_mirror, crystal_tome, crystal_illusion, crystal_singularity, crystal_gem, crystal_deathgem and crystal_cluster.

- Scrolls for the following new styles: GAMBLER, GORY, RITUALISTIC.

- Compendium pages for: Maestral Shoals, Maestral Reef, the Liruma Crater, the Underbelly, the Statue of Varian, Clawhook, and the Mannaseh Swamp.

In addition to these, you will always receive a filler prize (grimstim pills, various consumables, omnipotence pills, etc). These do not count towards your chest's value.

Enjoy!
