The annual Feast of Winter Veil is currently underway in World of Warcraft, offering Hunters a unique opportunity to tame the newly introduced Dreaming Festive Reindeer. This secret pet can only be obtained during this holiday event, which runs until January 5.

Blizzard Entertainment enhances the event with new surprises, such as the Winter Veil Armor customization for the Highland Drake mount introduced in previous iterations.
Exciting New Features for Winter Veil 2024
This year, the Feast of Winter Veil has come back with particular enchantments for Hunters. To find the Dreaming Festive Reindeer, players should explore the Old Hillsbrad Foothills located within the Escape from Durnholde Keep dungeon in the Caverns of Time. However, to attract these magical creatures, players must don a complete Winter Veil outfit or utilize the Disposable Winter Veil Suit. Successfully interacting with them will enable Hunters to tame both the standard dark-nosed reindeer and the more elusive red-nosed variant, which can then serve as Tenacity pets throughout the year.
