Snow Biome

Introduction

Face the cold and what it brings in the Snow biome! Step into the Snow biome if you’re ready to face its challenges and rewards. It is relatively difficult to master most professions in this biome since the cold makes almost everything more challenging. However, if you invest enough time, you can turn your Snow biome land into a land that can bring you wondrous rewards that not many can imagine. Almost all professions start out harder in this biome but as you progress, you will start seeing your hard work pay off. The Snow biome is also the home of many snow beasts and rare creatures that you can hunt to gain various valuable items. And lastly, the Glacier biome, which is a unique biome with some crazy stat improvements, can only be found within the Snow biome. So put on your warmest clothes and begin exploring!

The Snow biome covers a fair amount of the Kitsumon world. This biome is for players who are patient and hardworking! Players who are looking forward to short term incomes from their lands must approach this land plot with caution, but Snow biome lands can be a great investment for players who want to play for long hours and are targeting long term income with greater benefits. Other than professions, players who are looking for fights with powerful beasts can find them in the snow. Make sure you have proper clothing while wandering in the Snow biome, and watch out for Yetis!
