Defend Jerry's Workshop

Defend Jerry's Workshop is an event also known as Gift Attack and is part of the Season of Jerry Event. It happens at the end of the Late Winter 23rd on the Winter Island.

Objective
The Players objective is to defend the Town from Magma Cubes emerging from Mount Jerry before they reach the gift piles. There are 5 waves in total.

Damage
To deal damage to the Magma Cubes and other mobs during the event, you need to shoot Snowballs using the Snow Cannon, Frosty the Snow Cannon, or Frosty the Snow Blaster.

Each Snowball will deduct from the mobs hit.

You can view how much damage you've dealt on the scoreboard during the event.

Using a sword enchanted with Venomous still causes the Magma Cubes and Liquid Hot Magmas to take damage from the Venomous debuff (25 per second in the case of Venomous V). This causes the cubes to take significant damage, but does not add onto your damage counter in each wave.

Mount Jerry eruption
At the start of the event, Mount Jerry will begin erupting. Snow will melt and ice will deplete.

Tips
During the event, it is recommended to use the Snow Suit, as you can fire your snow weapon and never deplete its ammo. An upgraded version of the Snow Cannon, the Frosty the Snow Blaster is also recommended, as it fires at a higher rate, resulting in more damage overall. It's also recommended to use a horse pet or any other type of mount to negate the knockback taken from the fireballs shot by the Magma Cubes. Prioritize the Magma Cubes as you will lower the risk of losing gifts, and more damage to them means more gifts you earn.

Foxy will increase the gifts obtained by 2.5x while she is elected with the Benevolence Perk.

Power-Ups
Power-Ups spawn around the village in random intervals and last 80 seconds when picked up.

Magma Cubes
There are 5 waves with 10 different sizes/types of Magma Cube mini-bosses spawning on top of Mount Jerry during the eruption. They will slowly make their way down the mountain to destroy the Gift Piles.

The damage dealt by the Magma Cubes will progressively increase for each new size of Magma Cube and every new wave.

Liquid Hot Magma
They have, with great speed and hold Magma Creams or Fire Charges. They usually shoot fireballs for their main attack, but will occasionally switch to a bow to deal and.

Rewards
At the end of each wave, the number of gifts you will receive in all the Gift Piles will be displayed along with some other statistics such as:
 * Snowballs Hit
 * Snowballs Thrown
 * Snowballs Accuracy
 * Total Damage
 * Your # Position
 * Magma Cube Damage

Go to each Gift Pile to receive the gifts you earned.

Gift Piles
There are 5 Gift Piles scattered below Mount Jerry, forming a path labeled Ⓐ (A), Ⓑ (B), Ⓒ (C), Ⓓ (D), and Ⓔ (E). Look for the Green beacon beam to locate them. Your rewards will depend on how many Gift Piles are preserved at the end of each wave.

If the gift piles are all destroyed, Gary uses his snow machine and rains snow on the monsters.

Refer to the status bar on the top of your screen to view the overall HP of your Gift Piles along with their individual status:
 * Green: Not destroyed
 * Yellow: Targeting
 * White/Red: Partially destroyed
 * Ⓧ (X): Destroyed

Some possible rewards given from the Gift Pile are: There are 5 rounds. Therefore, the maximum total amount is NOTE: Above maximum total amount is only obtainable using the Snow Suit. Without this suit, you won't get the above total.

Bugs

 * There is currently a major bug where if a wave (usually the last one) begins on Late Winter 27th, the wave will be bugged and never begin. The scoreboard timer will read "" and never change until Jerry's Workshop closes. This bug was partially fixed. In some lobbies, it is fixed but not in some others. It is recommended to swap lobbies when your lobby is having the bug.
 * The maximum waiting time from the start of Late Winter 24th to the 1st wave which guarantees the 5th wave is approximately real-life 12 minutes. Players can enter a lobby right before Late Winter 24th, then change to another lobby if the waiting time is too long.
 * Bats from the Witch Mask and the Vampire Witch Mask can kill the cubes in one shot.
 * On July 30th 2021, there was a bug in a certian server (mini569J) that caused Liquid Hot Magmas and power-ups to continue to spawn after the event was over. They could be killed with normal Weapons (and were able to be insta-killed after the first hit with ), however abilities didn't work. This allowed players to get XP and Coins very fast, assuming they had an Intimidation Artifact so they weren't killed. They clustered at a specific location, likely as a gift pile should have been there. Whenever a player went too high above the Liquid Hot Magma, they are shot at with fire balls (and were killed instantly if they didn't have an Intimidation Artifact.
 * Necromancy and some Pets, when hit by a Snow Cannon, will add on your damage counter and can allow you to hit a high score really fast.
