In the 2024 Christmas event for RuneScape 3 (RS3), wrapping paper is a key item you’ll want to collect. It can be exchanged for festive presents that may contain rare rewards like the Pink Santa Hat and special cosmetics alongside expereince. Here’s a simple guide on how to best earn wrapping paper this holiday season.

1. Skilling

• Do Activities You Enjoy:
  Skilling is the easiest and most natural way to earn wrapping paper. While training skills like Mining, Woodcutting, or Fishing, you’ll occasionally receive wrapping paper drops.

  • Tip: Mining at Priff is super afk (up to 10-15 minutes at a time), so you’ll wrap up a lot of paper there without having to click much.

  • The same goes for making snowballs in the Christmas village, where you’ll also earn Spirit for more cosmetics.

• Boost with Buffs:
  Look for Wrapping Paper Boosts while skilling. These boosts can stack up to 100, increasing the amount of wrapping paper you get per drop. For example, with a boost of +100, you’ll get an extra 100 wrapping paper per proc.

2. Treasure Hunter Keys

• Earn Wrapping Paper:
  Using Treasure Hunter keys can also reward wrapping paper. Each key guarantees at least 200 wrapping paper, and finishing chests during promotions grants additional wrapping paper.

• Save Keys for Better Promos:
  Don’t use all your keys early. Save them for the Christmas Presents Promo, which offers better rewards and wrapping paper bonuses later in December.

3. Double Wrapping Paper (Optional)

• Buy Bonds:
  If you want to maximize your wrapping paper earnings, you can use a bond to activate double wrapping paper drops (note: a bond is well over 100M at this point). This can be expensive but is an option for players willing to invest.

4. Stay Active During Event Bonuses

• Late-Month Buffs:
  In previous years, wrapping paper drops increased closer to Christmas. Keep playing during these periods for extra rewards.

Tips for Wrapping Paper Collection

1. Focus on AFK Skilling:
   Activities like Mining or Woodcutting allow you to passively earn wrapping paper while multitasking.

2. Avoid Wasting Keys Early:
   Wait for the better Treasure Hunter promos, like the Christmas Presents Promo, to get more value from your keys.

3. Use Boosts ASAP:
   Keep an eye out for wrapping paper boosts while skilling. They can significantly speed up your collection.

By following these steps, you’ll be well on your way to collecting plenty of wrapping paper during the Christmas event. Merry Christmas, and good luck getting the Pink Santa Hat!
