How to Get Weak Legacy 2 Anniversary Giftbox?

The Anniversary Event in Weak Legacy 2 has brought one of the most exciting grinds in the game — the Anniversary Giftbox hunt. These limited-time presents spawn around the map every few minutes and can drop anything from simple cosmetics to extremely rare weapons like the Time Katana or Anniversary Scythe. Since only one player can claim each box, knowing the spawn system, server strategy, and fastest farming routes becomes essential. This guide breaks down exactly how Anniversary Giftboxes work, how to find them consistently, and the most efficient methods to secure more rewards before the event ends.

1. What exactly is the Anniversary Giftbox?

During the Anniversary Event Update 6.25, Weak Legacy 2 spawns physical gift boxes all around the map. These are the Anniversary Gifts/Giftboxes – you walk up to them and hold E to open and claim a random reward. Once any player takes a box, it disappears for everyone on that server – so it’s fully first-come, first-served.


2. Spawn rules – how often and how many boxes?

The event changed the game so that gifts spawn every 300 seconds (5 minutes) across the map.

The number of giftboxes per spawn cycle depends on how many players are in the server:

  • 1–2 players1 box
  • 3–5 players2 boxes
  • 5–8 players3 boxes
  • 8–11 players4 boxes
  • 11–13 players5 boxes
  • 13–15 players6 boxes

Important:

  • Boxes spawn in random locations across the map, not fixed single spots.
  • After a spawn wave, they stay until claimed or replaced by the next cycle.
  • If you’re slow and someone else reaches it first, it’s gone.

3. What you can get from an Anniversary Giftbox (drop rates)

Each box gives one random reward from the Anniversary loot pool. Most are cosmetics, but a few extremely rare weapons are in there too.

Approximate drop rates from event guides:

  • 🎄 Candy Cane V25%
  • 🎩 Christmas Hat45%
  • 🕶️ Anniversary Glasses45%
  • ⚔️ Ghost Katana2.05%
  • Time Katana0.6%
  • ☠️ Anniversary Scythe0.45%
  • 📍 Anniversary Gift Notifier1%

Notes:

  • Cosmetics (Hat, Glasses) are very common.
  • Time Katana and Anniversary Scythe are ultra rare – expect long grind.
  • Gift Notifier is also rare but super important for farming (details below).

4. Step-by-step: How to get your first Anniversary Giftbox

  1. Join Weak Legacy 2 (preferably a low-pop or your own private server for less competition).
  2. Wait until the next 5-minute spawn cycle hits. (You can casually grind mobs while waiting.)
  3. When the timer passes 5 minutes since last spawn:
    • Start running around popular areas: main village, paths between hubs, near NPC clusters, open fields.
  4. When you see a present-shaped gift box:
    • Walk up to it.
    • Hold E until the bar fills and the gift opens.
  5. You’ll instantly get one random Anniversary reward added to your inventory.

If someone reaches the box first, it despawns and you’ll need to look for another spawn.


5. Best ways to farm Anniversary Giftboxes fast

Here’s how players are min-maxing the event:

A. Use low-population or private servers

  • With 1–2 players, only 1 box spawns, but:
    • 0 competition → your chance to get that 1 box is 100%.
  • In full servers, 4–6 boxes spawn, but many players race for them.
  • Ideal: a server with 2–4 players where everyone is spread out.

B. Learn common spawn routes

Even though locations are technically “random,” many boxes appear:

  • Near main town / starting areas
  • Along roads and open clearings
  • Around quest hubs / NPC clusters

There are YouTube videos that literally show tons of spawn spots and routes to follow for Weak Legacy 2 Anniversary gifts.

Use a loop route:

  • Make a circle or figure-8 path through 6–10 known spots.
  • Repeat the loop every spawn cycle.

C. Server hopping

Because gifts spawn every 5 minutes, you can:

  1. Wait for a spawn in your current server, grab what you can.
  2. Leave → join a new low-pop server.
  3. If you land just before or after a spawn wave, you sometimes catch fresh boxes immediately.

This is especially good if your current server is crowded and sweaty.

D. Get the Anniversary Gift Notifier early if you can

The Anniversary Gift Notifier is a rare drop from the boxes themselves. Once you have it, it’ll mark giftbox locations on your map/UI, letting you:

  • Run straight at the nearest box instead of blindly searching.
  • Beat other players there much more consistently.

Because of that, the Notifier is arguably the best “first target” from the event pool.


6. Can codes give Anniversary Giftboxes?

No – codes do NOT give the physical giftboxes.
The anniversary codes (like 25SPINSANNIVERSARY, ANNIVERSARYRESETRACE, ANNIVERSARYRESETBREATHING) only give spins and resets, not boxes.

But they’re still useful because:

  • More spins = better build, more power for grinding while you farm boxes.
  • Race/Breathing resets help you fix your build during the event window.

To redeem codes:

  1. Launch Weak Legacy 2.
  2. Press M to open the menu.
  3. Click the purple gift box / code icon.
  4. Enter your code and hit Enter/Redeem.

7. Practical farming plan (what I’d do)

If your goal is maximizing boxes per hour:

  1. Join a low-pop server (0–3 players).
  2. Note the real-world time (e.g., 12:05 → next spawns at ~12:10, 12:15, 12:20…).
  3. In the last 60–90 seconds before each spawn, run your gift route:
    • Main town → road → nearby open fields → any known spawn clusters.
  4. Right after each wave:
    • If you got 0 boxes and the server is filling up, server hop.
  5. Once you pull the Gift Notifier, your route becomes much easier:
    • Just follow the markers every spawn cycle.
