    Hello.
    They drop Christmas scrolls that have made many people fabulously wealthy. They also drop holiday coins and there are even rumors that they once dropped a lot of slow tamers!

    Apparently it's time for me to hunt for them too ... If, of course, it really is them ...
    Good bye!

    after killing around 100! elves... running up and down the map to find them and not looting a single special item i ask myself:
    am i´m doing something wrong or does this chance to get sth simply suxx?
    by killing a rendeer i got woohaaa 1!!!!o_O green coin.

    The chance of a normal elf dropping a scroll overland is 1/100 (1/50 in dungeons). You could go days without seeing one or get a few in a morning.

    No trick to it. Just be near the elf when it dies and you *might* get a scroll appear in your pack.
