Luminaire FAQ

It’s the jolliest time of the year, didn’t you know? Let’s unpack just what you can do during Luminaire.

Each day throughout the month, Melody will be giving out new treats. There are two achievements regarding Melody’s Cottage. If you visit every day through the 25th, you’ll receive an Essence of Melody, which is essential to making a nostalgic pet! If you make it every day of December, you’ll get the Melody Regular 2021 achievement. We haven’t added an item prize yet, but there will be one before the month finishes.

For those worried about old Melody items they still need, we will be re-releasing them sometime this holiday and not through the Free Shop. <3

What would Luminaire be without a tree? Choose your 2021 tree and have fun decorating it. You can even add a backdrop to your tree! If the tree or ornaments aren’t showing up, clear your browser cache and try again. You can mass add all ornaments from your inventory to your ornament inventory here.

How do you get ornaments? You can donate sP to Melody after visiting her cottage for the day and receive an Old Box of Ornaments. When you open the box, you’ll find a random selection of ornaments. [I]If you are missing ornaments, please file a ticket.[/i]

Only want friends to leave your gifts under your tree or maybe no gifts at all? You can adjust your Luminaire gift settings here.

Just a reminder that trees "open" on December 25th! We will have a news post when you are able to receive your gifts. <3

Mysterious Melody, as you may have noticed, is still closed even though Luminaire has started. There will be some fun changes this year and there will be a news post explaining it when it reopens in a few days!

Note: When the feature gets released, this section will be edited with the changes for quick reference for everyone!

Keep an eye out for the snow fairy minions, which you can give via random event. There’s an achievement, Fairy Catcher!, when you find one.

You can release snow fairies from your inventory for the Free all the Fairies achievement. There is also an achievement, Fairy Collector for having one of each color snow fairy in your inventory.

I know you are all itching to throw a snowball or two but the Snowtapult won’t be opening until Winter properly starts on December 21. When the feature reopens, we will have a post explaining how it works and items that may help you avoid getting hit in the face with snow.

Spread joy on the [url=https://subeta.net/forums.php/forum/208]Luminaire Forums[/b]. We’ll keep these forums open until January 5, so any contests can be finished up after Luminaire ends.

Luminaire ends at 11:59 pm on December 31.

The Free Shop will not be happening during Luminaire.

I have a few friends that I'm not sure are currently active, but I went ahead and put some things under their tree just in case. What happens if they don't look at their gifts this year? Will they roll over into next Lumi?

Should I have some hope that maybe we'll get something like the gift exchange back? I miss using it. Not many used it even though I tried get some interest for it going then some found a way to game it and it was permanently shut down. :(

Aww, I'm sad we'll miss out on a few more days of MM... I've looked forward to getting to toss presents back and forth with people all year. But, at least this gives me a few more days to stockpile.

It’s generally winter, like around Christmas or New Years. This year we had it like a few months ago, though, so it’d be silly to have something that big again so soon. I’d also rather do it during a “dead” time instead of during a holiday!

Thought we usually do the Free Shop in January? Couldn't we have one in like January and then one in like July and keep it that way? 6 Months apart...

I know there are currently two that are going to go out (very soon) through Melody's Cottage but at the moment there are no sets going out via the box! Sometimes those come in at the middle of the night and I get a nice surprise in the morning, so who knows.

Do you know if there will be new ornaments this year or should I not build up a stockpile of Old Box of Ornaments?

We haven't settled on a time yet, especially since we just had it a few months ago. Maybe in the summer?
