Just like the original event, 2016 Christmas Rerun requires the player to farm four types of drops - Fruitcakes, Shortcakes, Cheesecakes, and Miracle Stockings. The former three can be directly exchanged with ascension/skill upgrade materials at the event shop, while Miracle Stockings are used to perform lotteries, which reward the player with items from a select item pool.
This event’s free Craft Essence increases the amount of Miracle Stockings contained in each drop. As it can be obtained via exchanging cakes, farming the three cake types should be a priority.
Quests & farming
A Main Quest is unlocked every night. By clearing the first Main Quest, the player is able to unlock various Free Quests, where event drops can be farmed. The best quests to farm each material is as follows:

Lottery
2 Miracle Stockings can be used to perform one lottery roll, and 20 Stockings can be used to perform ten. For the first to sixth pool, there is a ‘Grand Prize’ in the lottery - after obtaining the ‘Grand Prize’, it is possible to reset the pool. From the seventh pool onwards, the player has to completely deplete the current pool in order to reset.
However, this rerun’s lottery is different from the original event’s in that it can only be reseted 9 times. As such, it is highly recommended that the player fully depletes every pool to gain the most benefit.
IMPORTANT: The item Buche de Noel, obtainable via lottery, is required to obtain additional Jeanne D’Arc Alter Santa Lily copies, so be sure to collect them all!
