Place an Advent Calendar and open it once a day. Each player gets one gift per day, and only on the days above (server date).

Santa's sleigh flies across the map and drops a Present Drop halfway along its path. It has 1,000 HP and 43 possible items. See the full Present Drop loot table.

Methodology

Tested in game on our own server: the loot table of every present and loot bag, the combine recipes, the gift box and the advent calendar gifts. Chances are for one present or bag. Tested on the current version of Rust.
