1: Reduce the number of mobs and monsters

At the final and second to final room, there's TONS of greavers, ghostmane stalkers that are just a clusterfreak to the eyes. Killing everyone in 10 seconds or less. Also, replacing the Rocket puppies in the miniboss room with regular Slush Puppies would be nice, if not reduce their respawn time. Also making hearts and vitapods would also help.

2: Make the boxes drop more materials and increase their rates

Since the weapon reskins require an ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AMOUNT IF MATERIALS TO MAKE (200 coals? Really?), At least cut everyone some slack and make it worth their time and sparls by making the boxes drop more materials for their weapons (I'm still getting that snowman head)

3: Make the materials be vendored by Randolph

For those who still deem the grinchlin mission to be hard, at least make them an alternative solution to play the Save Winterfest mission.

4: Reduce the numbers of required materials to make one of the winterfest weapons.

200 coals? 75 razor ribbons? 75 bottomless stockings? Please. Only someone who stays up longer than me will be able to do that. Reducing the required materials by about 1/4 to 3/4 would be nice. It would help me get my snowman head faster so I can get to prize box grinding.

5: Give us another chance to get Obsidian Materials and Kat Fetishes.

There's no point in having the Obsidian Weapons and Kat helms in the winterfest crafting machine if it's impossible to get them. I may have all the required materials to get another obsidian weapon (I'm just happy with the gun. I don't plan for anything else), but again, cut everyone some slack so they can redeem themselves. The materials are bound for crying out loud.

I like the difficulty the way it is on the winterfest mission... and the crafting machine is that way for a reason- people were complaining about not being able to craft things during the event. If I have 3 days to craft acheron and I'm going to be out for 2 and a half of those days, it'll be impossible to finish.

The solution? Partake in the event for half a day, partake in the arcade to craft a 4* acheron later, when I have time. I'm actually kind of happy that OOO decided to respond to the players like this.

The last room needs to be toned down just a bit, whether that's by tweaking the stalkers, menders, or rocket puppies.

I've beaten it without dying- the whole thing- because the rest of the mission is relatively fair, but you just can't NOT get hit in the very last room. The best strategy ends up being to kill it immediately when it's first vulnerable, while hanging back for a while beforehand.

gods ain't gonna help you, son.

there should be less respawining monsters, and that's all I ask from the mission.
then lower the crafting materials needed for the reskins, cause seriously, they are reskins, they shouldn't be that valuable.
