Winter Lord

Overview

Winter Lords are Giant Monsters that were unleashed upon Paragon City during the Winter Events of 2004 through 2009. In the 2004 event, they randomly spawned in each of the city zones, sometimes with as many as 5 at once roaming an area. In the later years, the Winter Lord may spawn when someone from a team of 5 or more people clicks on a Naughty present.

In the 2009 event, Winter Lords were changed to spawn after a set number of presents are opened, and defeating it lets characters into Lord Winter's domain, giving them an attempt to defeat him.

Winter Lords belong to the Winter Horde enemy group.

Notes

  • During the Winter Event 2004, the Winter Lord name became synonymous with power leveling because of the amount of experience teams could gain from taking down the monsters. It was very common for low level characters to advance very rapidly during the event. The way experience is given for Giant Monsters was changed shortly after.
