Received 1 dose potion of group Mist of the Ant in chests after completion.
There is also a free chest available tucked into the base of the Great Divide Stone in POK that has free party stuff in it. Was there before the quests so not a reward - just something for everyone I guess.
Frostfell - The Clockwork Party Machine
| Quest Started By: | Description: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

These shared tasks are available during the holiday season as part of Frostfell events that run from December into the first week of January.
M.C. Tinkerton and his Clockwork Party Machine made their debut in 2005. They are located next to the Great Divide portal in the Plane of Knowledge. You say, 'Hail, M.C. Tinkerton' M.C. Tinkerton says 'Hello, _____! You've caught me in a bit of a [bind].' You say, 'What bind?' M.C. Tinkerton says 'I'm trying to get my clockwork party machine up and running but the dang thing just wont move! Its primary party motivator was stolen by the [Dark Mistletoe giants]!' You say, 'Who are the Dark Mistletoe Giants?' M.C. Tinkerton says 'The Dark Mistletoe giants are a grumpy old clan that lives in the Great Divide. Their leader, Old Frostbeard, complained my party machine was keeping him up at nights! Bah! The old geezer goes to bed at five thirty in the afternoon! We'd be well within our rights to [steal it back]!' You say, 'Will you steal it back?' M.C. Tinkerton says 'Wait a minute, _____! Steal it back? That's a great idea! Why didn't I think of that? Here's what you need to do! Once you return with that motivator, we're going to party like it's 3199!' From here, you can choose one of three tasks: Frostbeard's Lesser Minions (for groups under Level 30) Frostbeard's Greater Minions (for groups Level 30-50) Frostbeard's Elite Minions (for groups Level 50+) After completing one of those tasks, you can request another: Old Frostbeard (for groups 60+) Frostbeard's Lesser Minions Kill 10 Dark Mistletoe Clan Scouts 0/10 (Great Divide) Kill Scout Master Hemlock 0/1 (Great Divide) The above mobs are found around the giant mountaintop in the center of the Great Divide.

When hailing M.C. Tinkerton I do not get a choice of tasks. I am given "Frostbeard's Lesser Minions" repeatedly. My group is all lvl 105 so I should be getting "Frostbeard's Elite Minions." Also, upon completing the Lesser Minion task I do not get "Old Frostbeard". This has happened several times. I have killed the scattered storms and spawned Old Frostbeard, looted the Clockwork Party Starter however M.C Tinkerton will not accept it, no doubt because I have been unable to get the task "Old Frostbeard".

Scout Master Hemlock's LOC is -4675, 456, -167
Task: Old Frostbeard
This is a group task with two stages:
1. Scatter five of Old Frostbeard's summoned winds.
(Kill 5 'Frostbeard`s summoned storm', scattered around the west side of the mountains at the center of Great Divide).
2. Recover the Party Motivator and Return it back to M.C. Tinkerton.
(Kill Old Frostbeard, loot from him the Clockwork Party Starter, and give it to M.C. Tinkerton. Note: This stage of the task is updated by handing the item in to M.C. Tinkerton, not from killing or looting. I got the drop before I even got the task and it worked with no problems).
Upon completing the second stage:
M.C. Tinkerton gives you his thanks for returning the primary party motivator.
You gain experience!!
You have been given: Emerald of the New Year
M.C. Tinkerton says 'Well done, my friend. Let me just slide that party motivator back into place.'
M.C. Tinkerton says 'Hmm. . . '
M.C. Tinkerton says 'Should be working. . . '
(Clockwork Party Machine starts to do a dance....it appears to be 'the robot').
Clockwork Party Machine says 'Initial-i-zing par-ty start-er sequence one-one-niner.'
Clockwork Party Machine says 'Pri-mary firework cannons: online. '
Clockwork Party Machine says 'Gy-ro-scopic dance mod-u-lator: online. '
Clockwork Party Machine says 'Par-ty favor dis-per-sal hopper: online. '
Clockwork Party Machine says 'Initial-i-zation complete. Beginning par-ty start-er sequence one-one-niner'
M.C. Tinkerton begins to cast a spell.
M.C. Tinkerton says 'Whew! It worked! Thanks again, my friend, and have a happy new year. '
Six chests now appear in a circle around the two.
Free Party Favors regards you indifferently -- You could probably win this fight.
These each contain a random assortment of party related items. In total the six contained:
13 Champagne, 3 Firework: Typhoon Dragon, 2 Firework: Phantom Fire, 1 Firework: Volcano Burst, 6 Firework: Dancing Lights, 1 Mist of the Ant, 1 Potion of Invisibility, 3 Party Cake.

Saw them by GD stone.
Attempted to get Old Frostbeard task (the final one) with a group of 72,71,71,71,71,53. Average is >68, but getting a message that the level spread is too high. Was able to get the 2nd highest, but not highest. Anyone know what level spread is needed to get final task?
To bad it is still the same stats as last year would of thought they might up the stats on it doubt very few will do the quest now that can get betetr range item in tss zones!

Hes back in PoK as of 12/12/06..standing beside GD stone.
i have a 66 sk-- i cant get the task for the emerald-- if i group w/ a grp of lv70's can i get the highest reward?-- And why would you need such a high grp for an item that is req55/rec65?
Shruven Gruven c/o Ridikulus (The Rathe)
Shruven Gruven c/o Ridikulus (The Rathe)
As a 62 warrior I got the task/mission today, I didn't know about the lvl limit, now just have to get it done hehehe.
Solito Bendito
The Nameless
Solito Bendito
The Nameless
The group avg level has to be 68 to get the Old Frostbeard task for the final item. You need such a high group because the mobs are very very mean. The summoned mobs I beleive are lvl 70, and Old Frost beard is probably 72+

I'd like to thank Sony for giving us very easy ways of getting great upgrades, this season!
first one was the Bone Mask for completing the Halloween event. also if you did the MonsterMission that was part of it, you had the chance to get a Shield of the Void that was also very neat. And for the holidays we have this awesome range slot!
Very nice for those who are not in raid guilds and cannot get much better. Even if you're not at level 70 to get the best version, the lesser version for lower level chars are still pretty good and has the same effects!

Kill 10 Dark Mistletoe Guards
Kill Champion Stinging Nettle
Return to MC Tinerton in PoK
all mobs DB at lvl 48. Did it solo in about an hour (48 shm with virt, KEI, self-buffs ... Pet fully equipped with hands, muzzle and belt and only what buffs I could give it). a couple of double pulls to break camp, not too difficult.
Stinging Nettle doesn't hit dramatically harder than guards, but has a LOT of HP. had slow wear off twice, used entire mana bar, canni'd 1/2 my life and was still oom at end of fight. He does rampage from time to time.
NOTE: Mobs with sword and shield seem to be War class, with hammer seem to be CLR, no eqip Wiz. Plan pulls accordingly.
hope this helps someone.

The tier 2 and 3 mobs also spawn around the EW zone line / Nexus spires area. I think 4 elders spawn in that area and about that many guards.
tier 2, 3, and 4 all spawn on the mountain in center of GD all around its base and up the sides tier 1 also spawns near the mountain but they can wander away (some of tier 2 do as well but there are static spawns also)
also anyone know if you can turn in all 4 for a better reward?

anybody want to let us in on where he spawns?
In GD, middle of zone on mountain. We had to keep killing a few extra storms to get him to spawn. but from what I hear, he pops random places on the mtn.

from what i have seen doing this quest, at lvl 70 i was able to get the 4th task, and then u can invite 65+ into group and /taskadd them to recieve mission and they will recieve emerald. i haven't tried getting the task as any lvl lower so i'm not sure if lvl 65+ are able to see the task on the list. my understanding is that if you are too low of a lvl for a specific quest, then it will not show up on the list. and also you will not be allowed to be /taskadded to the mission. i guess soe just did this to avoid a lvl 1 getting the emerald version of the prize now, but rather only allow those of proper lvl to attain it.

I was grouped with a lvl 70 SK, and a lvl 58 cleric. we requested missions and it only gave us the first 3. we all disbanded, and tried to get solo. me and the sk were able to get the 4th mission and the cleric was not able to. we invited a 61 shaman and had the same problem. when we tried to taskadd the 61 it said that required lvl was 65. just so you know how i recieved the information that i posted.
Just to clarify:
I am level 52 and had no troubles getting or finishing any portion of each of the four tasks. I own this with no troubles. Yes, Level 1's cannot get this item, but not for the reason you list. It is REQUIRED level 55. That is the lowbie failsafe.
