Epische Neuigkeiten für das diesjährige Winterhauchfest: Wir haben kürzlich einen Brief von Graccu höchstpersönlich erhalten, in dem er diverse Änderungen erklärt, welche es euch leichter machen sollen, das Fest zu genießen. Wir dachten uns, ihr würdet vielleicht gerne hören, was er zu sagen hat:

"Graccu traurig weil Leute traurig. Graccu mag Leute fröhlich. Graccu mag Leute Pastete mögen sehen. Deswegen Graccu dieses Jahr mehr machen. Graccu dieses Jahr sprechen mit Händler von Kokelwälder für Vertrieb. Graccu auch verstecken Pastete in gestohlenen Geschenken. Graccu mag Leute fröhlich. Graccu haben fertig."

So, da habt ihrs! Dieses Jahr wird Graccus hausgemachte Früchtepastete also um einiges einfacher zu erlangen sein als zuvor. Ihr könnt sie entweder von Kaymard Kupferzwick oder Macey Klingeltaschen für 99 Gold und 99 Kupfer kaufen. Darüber hinaus könnt ihr die Pastete jeden Tag über die Quest Gestohlenes Geschenk erhalten.

Wir wünschen euch allen ein fröhliches Winterhauchfest! :)

I wonder who Graccu is?
Perhaps Blizzard CEO's grandmother? :p

Kommentar von hklown

In terms of regeneration rate, Graccu's Mince Meat Fruitcake is the best restorative consumable in the game (with Festival Dumplings coming in a close second).

What a shame that you only get 21 a year- good thing they'll always stay fresh!

Kommentar von fantom106

This is obtained by either completing the freeing metzen questline or by completing treats for grandfather winter.
You will receive a present in the mail containing the fruitcake

Kommentar von 278469

Relax guys you probably haven't received your Smokywood Pastures Extra-Special Gift yet. You're probably confusing it with the Smokywood Pastures Gift Pack you received for completing Treats for Great-father Winter.

Kommentar von 278487

you'll get in it the mail in a day or so

Kommentar von SJPadbury

Why is this BoP? Everyone knows you're supposed to re-gift Fruitcake!

Kommentar von 230716

Okay so I ate the one I got in the mail and I had the clothes and the boots on then i saw that it said 3 pieces, so please PLEASE tell me its possible to get another one of these?

Kommentar von MatadorBID

I haven't tested this, but there may be a way to get another one of these. The Smokywood Pasture people are faction-neutral and will allow you to do the Metzen quest twice. Perhaps this works for the quest "Treats for Greatfather Winter" as well? This requires you to both accept as well as return to complete the quest in the opposite faction's capital.

Kommentar von 216282

I ate this with three pieces of winter clothing on and didn't get the achievement. :S

Kommentar von 260655

I have now, just, confirmed a few things:

a) The item is still obtainable:
-click me-

b) The item can not be reimbursed by a GM:
-click me-

c) You can not re-do the quest:
-click me-

Edit:
On the 12/17/08 I received a mail containing 20 fruitcakes and achieved .

Kommentar von 281391

I was wearing 3 pieces, ate the food and didn't get credit.
My assumption is that it had to do with the fact that my hat was at 0 durability....

I used to wear it in MC on Rag attempts long ago, and apparently never repaired it.

Check for it before dining!

Kommentar von 278823

Got a new bag today with 20 cakes in it. There is hope :D

Kommentar von Oneesama

Got a Stack of those from http://www.wowhead.com/?item=21216 , they were sent with mail after 2 days from completing http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=8746

Here is screenshot

Kommentar von 260655

Another confirmation, just received the mail.

Kommentar von 282010

If you got rid of yours before getting the achievement, then it never hurts to open a petition. I used mine with 3 pieces of holiday clothes on and because my hat was broken, I didn't get the achievement. I opened up a ticket that essentially said that I followed all the requirements for the achievement and wasn't awarded, please either give me my achievement or another fruitcake.

I waited for ages and finally logged off. This morning when I woke up, I had received the following email:

"Item(s) Restored: Graccu's Mince Meat Fruitcake

Thank you for taking the time to contact us. We appreciate your feedback and apologize for being unable to address your issue while you were still online.

You will find the item(s) already in your character’s inventory or in the mailbox as an attachment.

While we can restore items with random modifiers (of the Bear, of the Eagle, etc.), we cannot guarantee that you will receive the same modifier you had on your original item. We are also unable to guarantee the restoration of trade skills, as well as enchantments or add-ons (such as gems, scopes, etc.) that your character’s items may have possessed. While we will make every effort to provide assistance in the case of a scam, the decision to go forward with a restoration is entirely at Blizzard’s discretion.

We apologize for any inconvenience you may have been caused. Thank you again for contacting us. We hope you continue to enjoy your experience in World of Warcraft!

*** Please do not respond to this email as all conversations on this matter would be best handled online. ***"

Sure enough, I checked my WoW mailbox and I had the fruitcake restored.

Kommentar von 282427

LOL I still have mine from last year =)

Kommentar von MrLatex

I only recieved one fruitcake from all my gifts. Enough for the achievement...

I had eight remaining from the last year though, so no big deal for me :)

Kommentar von Djuxa

I destroyed my cakes so i couldn't get the achievement. Buy basicly, you can go to your opposing faction city (i.e. if you're Alliance, go to Ogrimmar) and get the quest for which you get the cake. Just completed it, so don't know if you will get the cake.

Kommentar von DrBug

LOT'S of wrong coments.

You CANNOT get more of these inside presents. If you threw it away, open a ticket. Gm's CAN restore it for you, but only if you "lost" it (aka deleted).

If you eat it all before getting your achieve, get the other faction quest, as explained in the comment above.

Kommentar von cranx

Asked if it can be reimbursed once I have destroyed them.

http://i44.tinypic.com/4zzpxk.jpg

Kommentar von DAngel7

Did the Orgrimmar version of the quest, but haven't received the cake anymore :(
So I guess they removed it, and the only way to get it is to open present boxes on Xmas day and be lucky.

Edit:
Received it the next day by mail.

Kommentar von SlashSeler

Guy Great Father sent me a Graccu's Mince Meat Fruitcake but I ate it without wear Winter Veil gear.. And Great Father sent me only a 1 piece of this fruitcake. So when will I get my 20 Graccu's Mince Meat Fruitcake? And how can I take them? Please help me other wise Im gonna be crazy :O(##RESPBREAK##)2060##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##

Kommentar von felakin

Just got my 20 fruitcake in a gift box, about 72 hours after I finished the Metzen quest chain.

Kommentar von beverice

mine gives 6% O_o

Kommentar von 364744

Anyone know if there's any change in getting these later? I only had one from the gifts and I either threw it away or ate it. I'm a bit bummed out if I can't do Alle Jahre wieder because of it.

Kommentar von oguzkose

If you eat or lost the cake like me, just contact with staff, mention that you eat/lost it and now need it then they will send you 1 cake. True story.

Kommentar von Eclipsegirl

I haven't received that box of 20 fruitcakes and yet I was in one of the first groups that killed the Greench on Thursday.
I did receive 1 fruitcake but somehow didn't get the achieve.
I have since learned the older Winter garb (pre 2011) needs to be "repaired". If it wasn't repaired and you ate the fruitcake, you did not get the achievement.

UPDATE : I wrote my first ticket on Friday afternoon and there was no response. I wrote a second ticket on Saturday afternoon, again no response.
Finally at 7:30 am Sunday, Blizzard wrote and stated that I need to repair the winter clothes and sent me some fruitcake. There were 5 fruitcakes in my mail this morning.

I shouldn't take close to 40 odd hrs to get the fruitcake replaced in the mail.

Write Blizzard a ticket for more fruitcake, and keep writing them, once a day until you get the fruitcake.

Kommentar von 561217

I had a 3 set winter garb equipped. I then ate the fruitcake, but no achievement came. i then realized that random gear in my inventory and my bank where broken, particularly helms, including my Santa hat... I'm assuming thats the reason. I'm going to open a ticket to see if a GM can mail some or 1 to me.

Kommentar von 918377

I also ate the fruitcake while wearing the 3-piece, had a broken item, and got no achieve. In my case, it was the winter cloths. I put a ticket in but have gotten no response in the 48 hours since, not by email or in game. The ticket says the average response is 7 days, 6 hours.

I guess the moral here is to make that 1 piece of fruitcake count.

Kommentar von Lyrailis

I did the Metzen Quest (I assume you mean "You're a Mean One..." and the quest after it?) the same day the Christmas Event began.

No Mail on either of my two characters, nor mom's with any Fruitcakes. Mom accidentally ate one of hers (she meant to click on a Candy Cane) and she still hasn't gotten her mail. Is there some other quest we're supposed to do instead?

Kommentar von 854730

I had the same problem as most people here but I opened a ticket and was granted a single extra fruitcake after 1 day of patience. Thanks to the GM I now have my achievement.

Good luck everyone, try to do the same!

Kommentar von PackOfHighly

Petitioned regarding getting some more fruitcake and received an in-game mail with a stack of 5 attached.

From: Customer Support
Subject: Season's Greetings

Greetings!

Thanks for the taking the time to petition in regarding everyone’s favorite food - Graccu’s Mince Meat Fruitcake!

To ensure you enjoy this tasty treat and receive proper achievement credit for “’Tis the Season”, please make sure you do the following:

Repair your winter clothing! If your clothing has durability loss it will not count towards the achievement.

In case you got excited and ate your treat early or experienced any issues, we have attached extra to assist you. Happy holidays!

Remember - if somebody is throwing snowballs at you - get out of the way!

Kommentar von laseven

Here is the thing for reimbursement
If it is still in your deleted inventory, it will be reimbursed.
The deleted inventory is a cache of items you have deleted (or sold, destroyed, etc) and based on their item type ( white, green, purple...) there is a given time it will stay in that cache.
Anything that is still in there when you submit the ticket will be restored.
If its purged... Gl getting a GM to do the extra work to validate you've done the quest.
Cheers and marry xmas!

Kommentar von 515650

My ticket:

Hi, i have mistakenly deleted Graccu's Mince Meat Fruitcake and i haven't done achievement conected with this item. Is any way to get new stack of Graccu's Mince Meat Fruitcake?

GM response by ingame mail system:

Thank you for contacting the Blizzard customer support team.

To help you with your achievement “’Tis the Season”, please find attached some well preserved Graccu’s Mince Meat Fruitcake.

Please note that you will not receive credit for the achievement if any of your festive gear is broken, so make sure to repair it before eating your fruitcake!

Regards,

Kommentar von Pinkiepieisfly

Just to clarify, I wasn't paying attention and used my fruitcake. I thought the achievement was to eat it during Winter's Veil. All the comments on wowhead were about broken gear, or accidentally deleting, and I thought that I didn't qualify for a replacement. I messaged Bliz and told them what happened, and they mailed me more fruitcake. They mailed it this morning (Monday). Point being, if you submit a ticket, they'll give you more fruitcake, even if you accidentally use it and feel really stupid... *cough*

Kommentar von weirdunclebob

It's not already linked, as far as I can see, so here it is. The achievement that needs this and is mentioned in many posts here is 'Tis the Season. Don't forget to repair your gear before you don it and munch the cake. Enjoy =)

Kommentar von SpectraKitty

I wanna play hockey with it!

Kommentar von 929012

I submitted a ticket to get another fruitcake since I had mistakenly eaten mine and the GM told me I still had time to get another one and thus did not give me another fruitcake. I have done the You're a Mean One four times and still no fruitcake. Has anyone ever been able to get another fruitcake from doing this quest?

Kommentar von Torchgirl42

As of patch 5.1.0, groveling to the GM for more fruitcake still works. Assuming you get a nice one of course. I accidentally ate my fruitcake too early and submitted a ticket. It took a couple days but I got this for an answer:

<A goblin wearing in a red Winterveil hat and Smokywood Pastures apron ambles up, flipping through his notebook.
Eventually he finds what he’s looking for and calls your name. His voice is abrasive, his eyes are beady, and several gold studs and hoops line his ears.>

Look, I gotcher name right here. It says you’re one of the guys what ate their Fruitcake right off of the bat, huh? Yeahhhh, good stuff, that.

<He crosses your name off of the list.>

Awright, we’re gonna get you another one in the mail.

Consider yourself told, pal.

Some GMs are just awesome like that.

UPDATE: I recieved 5 Graccus hausgemachte Früchtepastete along with this in-game message.

Subject: A Spiced Package

Dear Adventurer,
I'm so pleased to hear you liked my Mince Meat Fruitcake so much! I really can't blame you. This new recipe is pretty much the greatest thing I've ever put together. Maybe even the greatest thing on Azeroth proper, who knows.

Here ya go. Enjoy it. Yeah?

- Master Chef Graccu

Kommentar von Goddessa39

Squee. Today I got sent a present through the mail from Grandfather Winter. Among them was this specific food needed for an achieve. i was very please. Thank you WOW team and you too Old Man Jolly.

Kommentar von BlizzardCS

Hey guys! We have some awesome news for this year's Winter Veil. We recently received a letter from Graccu himself, explaining us some changes he decided to introduce this year to make everyone's life easier. We thought you would enjoy the read:

"Graccu sad of making people sad. Graccu want people happy. Graccu want people enjoy Fruitcake. Graccu make more this year. Graccu now extend distribution chain to include retail market through Smokeywood Pastures. Graccu put Fruitcake in Stolen Presents too. Graccu want people happy. Graccu out."

So this year, for all your joy and happiness, Graccus hausgemachte Früchtepastete will be much easier to obtain. You can buy it from Kaymard Kupferzwick or Macey Klingeltaschen for 99 gold 99 copper. Additionally, you'll also be able to obtain one Graccu's Minced Meat Fruitcake each day from Gestohlenes Geschenk!

Happy Winter Veil to all of you! :)(##RESPBREAK##)2060##DELIM##Sas148##DELIM##

Kommentar von jbanz

This is no longer soulbound. No idea when the change was made.

Kommentar von Kanariya

It has been buffed for 2015's Winter Veil, restoring 20% Health and Mana every second, up from 5%.

Kommentar von jjanchan

This little morsel, Graccus hausgemachte Früchtepastete, is a pretty great food for Challenge Modes. Essentially, it restores 20% of health AND mana per second, bringing you to full in 5 seconds flat, making it perfect for spec changes, and somewhat useful for deaths (if speed is a priority - otherwise using a food with a buff is preferable, of course).

Additionally, it is no longer soulbound as of 2015! It can now be traded, and bought/sold on the Auction House.

Unfortunately, this food is hard to come by. It is only obtainable during Winter Veil, although any you retain on your character will remain there throughout the year until deleted or consumed.

You can obtain this food in the following ways:

Purchased from holiday vendors in Orgrimmar, Stormwind, Shattrath and other major cities (as well as in your garrison). The cost is a hefty 99g99s per piece. These holiday vendors are only active during Winter Veil.
Guaranteed to be found in Gestohlenes Geschenk, a reward from the Winter Veil daily So was Gemeines... (H)/So was Gemeines... (A)
Obtained on the Auction House any time of the year if you are lucky enough to find it!

Obviously method 2 is considerably more cost effective, especially considering you can do this on multiple toons (Level 80 required). So was Gemeines... (H)/So was Gemeines... (A) can be done roughly 18 times per toon per holiday, and in addition to Graccus hausgemachte Früchtepastete, the Gestohlenes Geschenk has a chance to contain any of the yearly Winter Veil gifts awarded from 2007 onward (toys, a pet, flavour items, etc).

It's also worthwhile to note that Graccus hausgemachte Früchtepastete is required for the achievement Alle Jahre wieder. In order to get this achievement, you need to eat the Fruitcake while wearing one of each of the following (3 pieces total):

Rote Wintermütze OR Grüne Wintermütze

Drops from certain Wrath of the Lich King, Cataclysm or Warlords of Draenor dungeon bosses, from select Schlacht um Orgrimmar bosses, or as a very infrequent world drop during Winter Veil.
Rote Winterkleidung OR Grüne Winterkleidung

Crafted by Tailors who have Muster: Grüne Winterkleidung or Muster: Rote Winterkleidung (both available from holiday vendors).
Winterstiefel, crafted by Leatherworkers who have Muster: Winterstiefel (available from holiday vendors).

Note that it does not matter if the colours do not match for the 3 items!

Kommentar von Mypciscraze

Kommentar von arasimus

update: For any who saw this item not working for a while, it does now appear to be working as intended, as per the tooltip. 5% per second. Tested April 2021.

Kommentar von Dekky

In case anyone didn't notice. This item along w/all the other Holiday Event food has basically been nerfed. They no longer off a % of health/mana, it's now a flat 30k health/ 40k mana if you are max lvl. The Lunar Festival Dumplings are the same, as well as any food you may have picked up off the tables at Harvest Festival. =(

Kommentar von Phasha

It seems that this very tasty food has been disabled in Mythic+ dungeons. I tried to eat Graccus hausgemachte Früchtepastete recently in M+ and it's grayed out. :(

Kommentar von Thermosbottle

This item has been nerfed and now restores a fixed amount of health and mana per second instead of a percentage of your total health/mana, making it pretty much worthless.
