During the wintery season, these had a chance to drop off any dungeon bosses, you could tell before hand if they were going to drop due to the mob wearing the hat.

They were later turned into a 'Uncommon' item from a 'Common' item in later patches due to random players taking the hat and the rest of the party had a unfair advantage.

There has been reports of the item dropping off any mob in the world.

I got a green one off of a goblin in Fargo Deep Mine in Barrens. Definitely seems to be a world drop.

Ya, though this hat has no armor or boosts, and is quite cheap, it looks cool. By it in AH, dont waste time searching. Lol.

Kommentar von Drosera

Gandling apparently isnt dropping this to 70's this winter.

Killed him a few times now, not seeing it.

Dropped today for us in Shadow Labyrinth off third boss.

Probably it only drops now off BC bosses. And you cannot solo BRD on lvl70 and take your hat :(

makes it even better though :)

I'm just pasting this from the Blizzard website, that other people have linked to, or mentioned in passing.

Please note, that it specifically says that the hats only drop from bosses Dec. 25th to Jan.2nd. So, farming old or new world bosses won't likely net you a hat, until the 25th.

Taken Directly From the Blizzard Forums:

From December 25th to January 2nd only

Winter Veil Bosses
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The denizens of the dungeons of Azeroth and Outland are also getting into the holiday spirit, and some dungeon bosses even wear festive Winter Hats just like Greatfather Winter's. Defeat a Winter Veil boss, and the boss' hat is yours!

I see a lot of posting in regards to the Euro servers but does anyone know if the hats are dropping on the North American servers as of now? Thanks for any responses.

Kommentar von 108673

I ran Scholo, and the hat didnt drop. So either they made it so, where it drops at another time, or doesnt drop at all, since people dont run the Azeroth Instances anymore.

This was on my warrior Darowen, on Durotan. The 2nd boss in Mech, was wearing one and I totally ninjaed it.(was with guildies LOL, they understand) Waited three yrs(and many people before BC came out) throwing hissy fits for a xmas hat.

Kommentar von 108994

These hats are dropping as of 12/16/07.
Uploading a screenshot aswell

Kommentar von Astor

Dropped yesterday (12/16/07) off Grand Warlock Nethekurse by frost mage and disc priest in normal difficulty (Archimonde-EU server). Shattered Halls is definitely the best instance to get it, since you only have to kill the first boss. Can be easily done with 3 people and hardly with 2 like priest/mage.

Kommentar von Cinesias

The red and green winter hats were world drops last year during Winter Veil. I know, because I got one in Searing Gorge. They are BoP: you cannot trade or sell them. I assume they are world drops again this year, as many people have posted that they received a red or green winter hat as a world drop.

I posted before with a European link that showed the hats to drop from old world bosses, but only on certain dates.

Now, it seems that won't be the case. Either you get a world drop hat, or you need to be in the mid 60's to have access to the instances of the bosses who drop the hats.

Sad, really, since Blizzard could have allowed old world bosses to drop the hats, giving people who have never gone to those instances to see them. Instead, its another run of the same old instance. But I digress.

Kommentar von Jaramshaela

By making it so they only drop off the Outland bosses, isn't that making it a little bit unfair for people who don't have Burning Crusade? I mean, I'm sure there aren't that many people who don't have it yet, but to have to rely on the world drop part of it is a little bit mean.

Just my 2c.

Kommentar von 110822

WOOT! After a long farming adventure I finally got one to drop!

After 5000 Scarlet Workers, 3000 Twilight Guys, 5 BRD clears, etc... Not to mention how much crap I killed last year and didn't get one to drop.

I go back and decide to clear out The Deadmines a few rounds and got one off a Defias Strip Miner on the second clear.

So YES it can be done. I was level 70 the mob level 19.

Kommentar von 95064

I have a question, if the mob has the hat does it appear to be wearing the hat? It's true for dungeons but is it also true for the world drop mobs?

Kommentar von 126159

Its annoying as these are bind when picked up. :( so my bank cant have one. I have the whole other set (boots and clothes) but i cant run her through an instance because she is only level 1.
The only thing possible is to level her to 6 and kill the mobs that have small chance to drop it.

Kommentar von 146952

Its also confirmed that the highest drop rate is in {20-29} near the entrance to desolace / ashenvale {humanoids}

On alliance side it drops extreme often near the entrance to Loch modan and in dun morgh.

even if so; its still a world drop and no one can specified tell you where it can drops, this down here is just some examples:

near the entrance to desolace: Flying harpys.

Ashenvale: kill the stealthing night elfs near the horde base camp from The barrens.

Loch modan: kill the ogres {Blink, even ogres celebrates christmas ;).....}.

Dun morgh: The elite near you buy rams. Ops: {Level 11/12 elite}.

This is just TIP, i had it dropped atleast 20-30 times from this.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Got real lucky, one dropped off a lvl 5 or 6 kobold in Elwynn

Kommentar von Thottbot

accidently ninja'd this thing today.
my first scholo run, i didn't even know this thing dropped. it was on ML and usually when boss's drop only the ML can see the rare items, while everyone else can still pick up the trash, so i went up to try to be the first one to get the trash. I right clicked his corpse and i just started clicking without thinking. and since this hat isnt green/blue/purple it showed up with the rest of his trash, and even though its BOP it didnt even warn me when i clicked it, just went straight to my inventory. SO WATCH WHAT YOURE DOING WHEN LOOTING GANDLING... my bad lol.

Kommentar von Thottbot

Someone had the question earlier if the mob had to be on your level. The answer is maybe. I'm on Kirin Tor and ended up paying for extra help from low levels. I was level 44 at the time and spent over 7 hours killing the gnolls in Elwynn. Sometime into the eigth hour one of my hired helpers killed one and the gnoll dropped it.

Kommentar von Thottbot

During Winter Veil, certain instance bosses will drop these hats. When you get to Gandling, you will see he is actually wearing this hat, and will drop 1 for you when you kill him.

Kommentar von Thottbot

<3 My winter hats!

Kommentar von Thottbot

Kommentar von Thottbot

i got it off a slave worker in the cauldron (Searing Gorge) of my first kill.

Kommentar von Thottbot

a Drop of a Redridge Gnoll Dont know if ti was a Mystic or the Others, all i do know is that the DRop is like 0.7% Level 18-20 i think. I was doing the quest that Needed to kill Yowler at and It came up with Greed or Need Green winter hat, Everyone Clicked Need and i got Lucky :D!

Kommentar von Thottbot

I got my Green one while questing in Thousand Needles killing centaurs...a few hours later I was grouped with someone while questing in Arathi Highlands and the Red one dropped but I let the other person have it...I'm sure I'll find a red one somewhere to complete the set...besides green is my fave color!

Just got one from a Skeletal Raider in Duskwood

Kommentar von Thottbot

I got one off a Tunnel Rat Vermin in Loch Modan. Totally surprised. It even says the drop chance is 0.0%. My buddies are jealous :P

Kommentar von Thottbot

Ran Brd 5 times, never saw the hat. Ever. Gave up until today (xmas) I was looting magic dusts and farming dust devils. Saw a chest in a pack of gnolls. Dropped off of one, very very very happy looks awesome =]

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Gandling and The Prince both dropped 1 for the party. It's bop, but you don't get a pickup confirmation dialog. You only see if after everyone has clicked on the corpse.

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Gandling dropped it for me

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Does it matter if you are doing a single group or a raid to get a hat to drop?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

Do World NPCs wear it if they're going to drop it the way the dungeon Bosses do?

Anyone know the drop rate yet?

Kommentar von Allakhazam

My level 12 rogue got a green hat from a level 11 Defias Footpad in the Jansen Stead, Westfall. BoP with no confirmation.

Kommentar von Renuts

I just had one drop off of a random Mob in Felwood in WoW Classic.

Kommentar von freman91

Just had the Green Winter Hat drop off of a Haldarr Felsworn in Azshara

Kommentar von kurji

This hat is the best level 1-9 twink hat in the game, as it can be farmed for any class at level 1. Rogue twinks should still go with Rote Maske der Defias, as it's easier to farm. The hat can be enchanted with Libram enchantments, such as Geringes Arkanum der Konstitution.

This hat is surpassed at level 10 by Schutzbrille mit grünen Gläsern and Glücksangelhut, as well as a couple of other Ingenieurskunst hats.

As for actually farming for the hat, make sure you join a group with someone higher level than you, then die and let them kill and loot every humanoid in sight with Group Loot set. When the Grüne Wintermütze drops, just press Need and you'll get it without having obtained any experience points from the kills. This method is also used for farming reputation for the Medizinbeutel der Furbolgs.
