Polar Pedestal

**Brrrrr! - Frigid Frigate Gathering Event! - Jan 2019**

*Level this up to earn new boat parts!*

*The islanders find the Polar Pedestal Drafting Table and build the **Frigid Frigate** ice ship. You will need to use specific items to level up the Table (similar principle to the previous gathering events).*

## How to get

The Polar Pedestal is available from January 8th 2019 18h UTC and the event runs until January 17th 04h UTC.

You can place the base of the Pedestal on your island by dragging it in from the game's build menu (free).

## Levelling Up and Rewards

To obtain the boat parts you must upgrade your Pedestal by "feeding" it with specific items from your mills or harvesters, or collected from TradePost orders :

Ice Crystals (Moles), Icy Boards (Glassworks), Glimmering Glass (Blacksmith), Frozen Snowflake (mainly Trade Post), Iced Sundries

The make times and heart rewards for these items are shown below :

  Icy Boards | 15m (11m15s)
  Glimmering Glass | 45m (33m45s)
  Frozen Snowflake | --
  Iced Sundries | --

*Note: Time and gain with Mill Mastery 25% speed bonus are shown in brackets.*

*Note: Heart values for items may be reduced while the "Short Build Time" booster is active.*

The special booster item is available at the Bazaar :

* The Iced Sundries costs 300x **Snowballs** , and rewards 1000 .

**Important :** Share your Snowy Icicle with other TradeMasters (see the Snowy Icicle page to see how to do this).

Each time you supply items to your Pedestal you will receive  and  rewards.

Each time you level up your Pedestal you will receive various rewards and boat parts (see below).

## Event Social Currency

**Snowballs**  are obtained :

* From Dock trades (sometimes)
* From wildlife and treasure chests (sometimes)
* When another Trademaster drops a Snowy Icicle onto your Pedestal, 30 , 10  and 25
* When you drop a Snowy Icicle on another Trademaster's Pedestal, 50  and 25

See below for special items you can buy at the Bazaar using the event currency.

## Fortune favors the cold!

Keep piling on those items to build your Polar Pedestal! The Pedestal starts as an empty table and gets a new fragment of ice crystals at Levels 2, 4, 8, 10, and 12; with the final fragment at Level 15 :

Keani: *"Finn, we've found a new drafting table!"*

Finn: *"Oh boy, I wonder what kind of map table it is this time!"*

Finn:*"This doesn't look like a normal drafting table Keani. What do you think it is?"*

Keani: *"It's for the Frigid Frigate!"*

Finn: *"Frigid Frigate? Is it made of ice? Won't that be slippery?"*

Keani: *"You'll have to watch your step!"*

Finn: *"I can't wait to try sliding across the deck!"*

Keani: *"First we'll need some **Ice Crystals**. I bet a **Mole** can find some for us!"*

Finn: *"To make sure it can float, let's make some **Icy Boards** at the **Glassworks**!"*

Keani: *"And finally, we'll need some **Glimmering Glass** from the **highlight:Blacksmith**."*

Keani: *"Finn come quick! Look what we found!"*

Finn: *"That was fast, what is it Keani?"*

Keani: *"It's the sail of the Frigid Frigate!"*

Finn: *"Don't let up! Let's find the rest of the parts!"*

Pike: *"What's goin' on over here lass?"*

Keani: *"We found the Frigid Frigate!"*

Pike: *"Sounds like ye be needin' ol' Pike's help to get this sorted!"*

Keani: *"We can use all the help we can get! The more the merrier!"*

Pike: *"Yargh!"*

Keani: *"We're making great progress. We'll have all the parts in no time!"*

Finn: *"Do you think once we get it in the water it's just going to melt?"*

Keani: *"...there's only one way to find out!"*

Finn: *"We've found another boat part, Keani!"*

Keani: *"That's great Finn! We still need more **Glimmering Glass** to get the rest!"*

Finn: *"I'm on it!"*

Pike: *"Good on ye, lad. We're makin' great progress!"*

Keani: *"Hey Pike, do you think this thing will actually float?"*

Pike: *"It'll float lass! Has ol' Pike ever let ye down 'afore?"*

Keani: *"Of course not!"*

Pike: *"And I don't be meanin' to!"*

Wesley: *"Ahoy! Iceberg! Straight ahead!"*

Keani: *"Wesley, that's just the Frigid Frigate!"*

Wesley: *"Belay that! It's just a new ship!"*

Keani: *"Have you ran into many icebergs in your travels, Wesley?"*

Wesley: *"More than you'd think. Frightfully difficult to navigate around I'm afraid."*

Keani: *"Oh no, did your ship sink that way?"*

Wesley: *"Absolutely not, I'm the best navigator across the Seven Seas!"*

Wesley: *"The trick to avoiding an iceberg is to keep a weather eye out for them!"*

Pike: *"Wesley, there aren't any icebergs around the Seven Seas."*

Keani: *"Have you been everywhere, Pike?"*

Pike: *"Well of course not, lass!"*

Keani: *"Then how do you know there aren't icebergs?"*

Wesley: *"Exactly what I've been saying."*

Wesley: *"Hey Pike, maybe I saw those icebergs in a different sea."*

Pike: *"What sea are ye thinkin' that be?"*

Wesley: *"I'm not sure! It's been so long and I've traveled far and wide."*

Pike: *"Ye must 'ave been quite the explorer..."*

Wesley: *"Everyone come quick! The Frigid Frigate is finally finished!"*

Finn: *"Wow this is the coolest boat I've ever seen! What do you think happens if I lick it?"*

Wesley: *"I'm sure it would be fine! Give it a go Finn!"*

Keani: *"Wesley! Don't let him do that. We don't know where it's been!"*

Pike: *"Aye, and lickin' anything cold be a risk!"*

Finn: *"Do you want to take it out, Wesley?"*

Wesley: *"Of course! Who else wants to join us?"*

Keani: *"Oh, I think I'm fine here next to my campfire."*

Finn: *"What about you Pike? We can go searching for icebergs!"*

Wesley: *"Yeah Pike! Let's go find some icebergs!"*

Pike: *"I'm always down fer an adventure. Let's find some of yer icebergs, shall we?"*
