Behavior[]
When Sgt. Winter encounters a player he will chuckle for a bit and throw a Present down near them, greeting the lucky player before continuing with his patrol until another one comes into contact with him.
He will only attack players if they deal damage to him.
Sgt. Winter patrols the roads of the island on the back of The Holiday Big Rig chauffeured by two Red-nosed Rangers.
On the road, Sgt. Winter will be stationary on the Big Rig at all times, waving on to anybody fortunate to find him. When nearby, the driver will honk rapidly until the player comes close, to which Sgt. Winter will chuckle for a bit and throw a Present down near them. After that the Big Rig will speed away as he waves goodbye.
He will only attack players if they deal damage to him, his Guards, or his vehicle.
