[[Storms of Winter]] is a level 80 [[meta event]] that occurs in [[Frozen Pass]], in [[Bjora Marches]]. The [[Fraenir of Jormag (NPC)|Fraenir of Jormag]], using magic stolen from [[Raven (Spirit of the Wild)|Raven]], has summoned a massive blizzard around [[Jora's Keep]], and an army of [[Sons of Svanir]], [[Icebrood]], [[Fallen]], and [[Aberrant]], are moving in. Keep [[Havroun Weibe]] safe while he gathers enough energy to counter the storm and call on Raven to protect the keep against those that steal his power.

== Walkthrough ==
This meta event is divided into 4 sections:

;Preparation
Players are encouraged to build defenses around Jora's Keep to help defeat the incoming enemies. Bonfires periodically reduce frozen stacks on nearby players, and burn enemies that walk over them. Arrow Carts can be used to damage enemies at range. Firebombs can be picked with a flying mount or by gliding using the nearby [[Bouncing Mushroom]] and [[Updraft (object)|updrafts]], and dropped on enemies to inflict minimal damage, {{effect|burning}} and {{effect|weakness}}.

;Defense
Players have to keep enemies away from the Raven shrines. The shrines are '''capture zones''' and completely '''immune to damage'''. As such, Svanir Bombers are best left ignored, since they never attempt to capture the shrine but instead try to damage players inside the shrine with their bombs, before going away. Instead, players should focus on normal foes to prevent them from capturing the shrines. Even if enemies manage to start capturing the shrine, the shrine will quickly regain all their alliance towards Havroun Weibe once enemies leave its capture ring. At times, portals will open that spawn more enemies, players can damage these portals to close them. The defense event is very long but of little difficulty.

;Destroy the Shards and Ballistae
After the Defense phase's timer stops, a [[Claw of Jormag]] will fly overhead and drop Dragon Crystals on the Raven Shrines, destroying their barriers. Near each shrine, three ballistae will be built by the Svanir. Players will need to destroy the three crystals as well as the nine ballistae. Icebrood and [[Corrupted Ice Formation]]s defend the crystals, while [[Sons of Svanir Engineer]]s will attempt to rebuild and man the ballistae until all three on each end are destroyed.

;The Icebrood Construct
{{main|Defeat the icebrood construct before it reaches Havroun Weibe}}

After all ballistae and crystals are destroyed, [[Fraenir of Jormag (NPC)|Fraenir of Jormag]] will summon a Legendary Icebrood Construct which slowly marches towards Jora's Keep. The Construct will march along the road towards the Keep, instead of taking a straight route. Players have to pull chains from nearby rocks into the construct. Once the construct walks far away from the starting point of the chains, if at least 6 chains hold it, its legs will break and it will stop moving forward for a tile. If not, it keeps going forward, and another chaining point will appear.

If the Construct's legs are broken, they will be reformed, and after about a minute, the Construct will continue its march. The event fails if the Construct reaches the edge of the last cliff near the northern Raven Shrine.

If the event fails, the blizzard remains across the map for 20 minutes.

;Icebrood champions
If the Icebrood Construct is destroyed, Raven will appear and end the blizzard, opening up the [[Asgeir's Legacy]] area. A group of bonus events starts in Asgeir's Legacy, with four champion foes appearing. These champions have randomized [[Bounty#Unstable_Magic_Abilities|bounty effects]] applied to them. Asgeir's Legacy also has access to various mining gathering nodes, [[Norn Chest|Norn]] and Essence chests, and a [[Mastery Point (The Icebrood Saga)|Mastery Point]].

Eventually, a light snowstorm returns to Bjora Marches, and this area reverts to being inaccessible.
