This 
year's winter update mainly focuses on improving existing features and systems in the game. Let us start off with daily rewards, Tibians. More than nine years after their implementation, some of them may no longer feel quite as rewarding as they once did. We think it is high time to change that and sweeten your daily login.
Most notably, a new type of reward will be available: Cosmetic Tokens.
Cosmetic Tokens are a special currency that can be used to purchase cosmetic items, such as outfits, mounts or house decorations, in the Store. One Cosmetic Token has the same value as one Tibia Coin. Cosmetic Tokens are character-bound, meaning they can only be used by the character that accumulated them.
Another improvement affects how daily reward XP boosts will interact with XP boosts bought in the Store: Instead of extending the duration, their percentage bonuses will stack while both boosts are active. So if you claim a daily reward XP boost of 50% which lasts for 30 minutes and also buy a Store XP boost of 50% which lasts for an hour, you will benefit from a 100% XP bonus for the 30 minutes both boosts are overlapping.
Your daily reward will also conveniently include the free daily Reroll Token for Bounty Tasks, so you will no longer have to claim it via the Bounty Board. Therefore, this option will be removed from the Bounty Board.
Now let us take a look at the new daily rewards that will replace the current ones. They can be claimed with a single click, since there are no longer different types of runes, potions or training weapons you need to select from.
| Day 1 | Free: 2 Cosmetic Reward Tokens + 1 Bounty Reroll Token | |
| Day 2 | Free: 1 Prey Wildcard + 1 Bounty Reroll Token | |
| Day 3 | Free and Premium: 1 Temporary Temple Teleport Scroll + 1 Bounty Reroll Token | |
| Day 4 | Free: 30 Minutes 10% XP Boost + 1 Bounty Reroll Token | |
| Day 5 | Free: 3 Cosmetic Reward Tokens + 1 Bounty Reroll Token | |
| Day 6 | Free: 1 Prey Wildcard + 1 Bounty Reroll Token | |
| Day 7 | Free: 30 Minutes 20% XP Boost + 1 Bounty Reroll Token |
And there is more! Resting area bonuses for claiming your reward on a daily basis will now always be active for Premium players in resting areas, regardless of your reward streak. They are the new normal in resting areas, so to say. This means that you will always benefit from the following bonuses there:
Free account players will always benefit from Hit Point and Mana Regeneration in resting areas.
So does this mean that building up your reward streak is no longer worthwhile? Quite the contrary: Each consecutive daily claim will increase your Weapon Proficiency XP bonus by 1%, up to a maximum of 7% from day 7 onwards. This bonus can be reached by Premium players as well as free accounts.

Another Raubritter Lager?" Amaro offered, getting up from the table.
"Only if you tell me another story." The woman narrowed her eyes at him, a mischievous smile playing around her lips. "And hand me a cool bottle this time."
Amaro placed a fresh bottle in front of her with a thump. The golden liquid sloshed against the glass like a stormy sea.
"Ah, I've got just the thing for you! The tale of a woman who once defeated a golem single-handedly, still drenched in the blood of her comrades."
"Sounds like a tragic brute."
"Well, she's known to be resilient, fierce when provoked. Truly has a mind of her own, this one, defiant at times, forgiving at others. But once you've earned her trust, she'll stay by your side when others bolt."
She raised an eyebrow.
"Eventually, she was leading an expedition to the isle of Ada for her king, Kesar the Younger. Alas, the Devil's Reef almost tore apart the Emmanuelle, the Bounacean flagship, as they approached the island."
Sighing, her gaze drifted into the distance. "What a beauty she was, her sails full of wind against the endless blue. The pride of Bounac."
"The rough arrival was a grim omen of what was to come," Amaro continued, his voice growing sombre. "The captain ventured into a mine system with her finest soldiers, the Green Lancers. Most of them never made it out alive. Some say she died a hero there, fighting an unknown evil. Others claim she lost her mind and slaughtered her own men in a frenzy, as if possessed."
The woman pressed her lips together. She poured the cool lager into her mug, held it against the light, then took a hearty gulp. The beer shimmered almost as golden as her blonde hair in the fading sunlight.

"Nobody knows for sure what happened to her. But lately, a stray cat is rumoured to prowl the dark alleys and shadowy corners of Bounac, sniffing out scraps of information. Apparently, she has a hideout beneath the settlement, where she's trying to unravel the tangled threads of a sinister plot, hunting the fiend that attacked her mind back on the Adaean Isle. 
She's secretly looking for battle-hardened warriors willing to follow her to the Onyx Massif, a wasteland of scorching rock and rivers of molten lava, dominated by a mighty volcano that spews fire and ash into the sky. Her sources claim that crashed moon fragments are being used there by her nemesis to build and equip a growing army. Stubborn and righteous as ever, she's determined to uproot the evil festering there, no matter the cost."
His companion let out a short laugh, shaking her head in disbelief. "Who told you all that? Jehan, while you were picking up your weekly supply of fresh baguettes? You two gossip like old washerwomen!"
"Well, Onfroi might have dropped a hint or two," Amaro admitted with a sheepish grin. "And you know I have tea with Lieutenant Gaultier once a month. Sadly, the Hushwell Asylum won't allow me to visit the poor fellow more often."
Her smile faded. She looked at Amaro, determination and despair swirling behind her stoic expression.
"He was once a fine soldier. They all were. I knew every single one of them, Amaro. Their hopes, their quirks, their lives."
Her voice grew firm. "Nothing is forgotten. Nothing is ever forgotten. They will be avenged."
Amaro held her gaze, his expression softening.
"I know they will, Marie. I know they will."
