Update for 2012: The envelopes are now quest rewards, and will no longer be clogging your mailbox.

When you visit an Elder during the Mondfest, he or she will send you mail with one of these envelopes attached. You'll receive one such message for each Elder who gives you a coin. The text of the letter:

I was grateful for your visit today, take this as a gift for your Lunar Festival.

or:

Thank you for visiting me, <name>. It makes me happy to know we are not forgotten.

The envelope itself is a reference the Chinese tradition of giving red envelopes filled with money on special occasions.(##RESPBREAK##)2056##DELIM##adashiel##DELIM##

You receive one of these for each Elder you visit during the Lunar Festival.

- It arrives in your mailbox around 6 hours after the visit with a letter attached expressing thanks.
- It will contain one of two items. Either a Elder's Moonstone or Lucky Rocket Cluster.
- There is a walk through to complete all 75 coin/letter/visits on WoWwiki.com Elder Page.

they should give us a chance to get a rare item, maybe a trinket that does something cool or perhaps a non combat pet or somthing at least then i wouldnt mind the spam so much lol increases my chances

Kommentar von Rexz

In real life, these are given out on Chinese New Year or Vietnamese New Year (Name is called depending on the country in Asia that celebrate it).

Typically if you live in a large family, you will get a lot of money from these, unlike in WoW where you don't actually obtain currency from it.

For me personally I've obtained around from 300-700 dollars a year depending on the occasion, my family tree is pretty large. :P

Actually opening the large number of envelopes can turn into a real pain, or another mini game depending on how easily entertained you are. For those that want an easy way to open their letters, make this macro.

#showtooltip
/click MailItem1Button
/click OpenMailAttachmentButton1
/click OpenMailDeleteButton
/use Lucky Red Envelope

Now just open your mailbox, and hit the macro till all the letters have been opened and deleted. Opens the Red Envelopes as it retrieves new ones, though make sure not to delete the mail you want to keep by blindly spamming!

Kommentar von willdog94

these envelopes also have the other 41% chance to drop a lucky rocket cluster

Kommentar von Daiemio

Sometimes i wonder if these "Elders" are sages of wisdom and gratitude, or lazy postal workers.

75 Lucky Red Envelopes
-39 Lucky Rocket Cluster
-36 Elder's Moonstone

Kommentar von Flitzy

I just visited you and said hello. You couldn't have given me the envelope, then?

Sheesh! ;D

Kommentar von Nagostyrion

I think something is bugged here. On german client i cannot delete the mails
Switched to english client and it works. not as smoothly as i wished, but at least i can destroy it
anyone same problem?

Kommentar von Zapph

It would appear these envelopes are now given to you straight from the Elder rather than being mailed 6 hours later as of the 2012 Lunar Festival.

Kommentar von Namikaza

As of post the Roter Glücksumschlag are handed straight to you after you honor the elders and are no longer received via mail.

There is also a new achievement called Die Urahnen des Kataklysmus in which you have to honor the new elders that arrived in the Cataclysm expansion.
In the new Cataclysm locations:

Vashj'ir Wowhead Map
Urahne Mondlanze at 57,86, Biel'aran Ridge

Mount Hyjal/Nordrassil Wowhead Map
Urahnin Windsang at 26,62 Sanctuary of Malorne
Urahnin Immerschatten at 62,22 Nordrassil

Deepholm/Temple of Earth Wowhead Map
Urahne Tiefenschmiede at 27,69 Stonehearth
Urahne Steinsiegel at 49, 54 Temple of Earth

Uldum Wowhead Map
Urahne Sekhemi at 32,63 The Ruins of Ammon
Urahne Menkhaf at 65,18 Khartut's Tomb

Twilight Highlands Wowhead Map
Urahne Dunkelfeder at 51,33, Thundermar Ruins
Urahne Feuerbart at 50,70, The Dunward Ruins

If you have Tomtom you can use these way gates.

/way Deepholm 49.7 54.9 Elder Stonebrand
/way Deepholm 27,7 69.2 Elder Deepforge
/way Mount Hyjal 62.5 22.8 Elder Evershade
/way Mount Hyjal 26.7 62.0 Elder Windsong

Kommentar von rashas

NPCs will no longer send it through mail, you will get it from quest instead.

Kommentar von Greenosed

Confirmed. The envelopes in 4.3 are no longer received in the mail. You get them as you hand in the quest along with your Coin of Ancestry.

Kommentar von Sharkownz

Dropped "Lucky Rocket Cluster" For me

Kommentar von 942664

Update for 2013:

Besides Elder's Moonstone you may have an Glücksraketenbündel as a lucky(!) award from the envelope.

Kommentar von JoeJitsu

BFD. A buff that won't survive a BG death just ain't worth the trouble to obtain. Blizz needs to make this event reward infinitely more easy to obtain...similar to the buffs in other events.

A large "yawn" for the Lunar Festival, at least for us F2Ps.

Kommentar von Zwolzy

Contains either one of the two:
Glücksraketenbündel
Mondstein der Urahnen

The Glücksraketenbündel gives you +250 health (2.5 stamina)

You can get only one of the two items per Roter Glücksumschlag, but they stack in lots of 20.

Kommentar von SoultheUnicorn

I wish these would have a chance to drop a special pet or item or weird toy, but they just drop the same two things :(

Kommentar von LastMohican

You can open those while flying on your mount but not when using FP service.

Kommentar von gamedisciple

Opening all these Roter Glücksumschlags is a pain so here's a macro!

#show Lucky Red Envelope
/use Lucky Red Envelope

Pro tip: you can open envelopes when mounted (but not when using flight paths) so feel free to use the time between Elders productively!

Kommentar von Zuckerguss

(Updated in 2023 for Dragonflight)
Here's another macro for accepting/completing the quest and opening your Red Envelope. It also shows you how many Coins of Ancestry you have in your bags.

1. Click on an Elder.
2. Use the macro. This will accept and complete the quest.
3. Use the macro a second time to open your Red Envelope.

#show Coin of Ancestry
/script C_GossipInfo.SelectAvailableQuest(1)
/script C_GossipInfo.SelectActiveQuest(1)
/script CompleteQuest()
/script GetQuestReward(1)
/script C_GossipInfo.SelectOption(1)
/script AcceptQuest()
/use Lucky Red Envelope

Kommentar von aflyhorse

The most disappointing Red Envelope I've ever received, as a Chinese.

Kommentar von Malachi68

My alt is a level 55 rogue so I'm scrapping for a lite xp. Although the chat indicates that I've received a Lucky Red Envelope, my bags suggest otherwise. I've just visited all of the Elder places in the southern section of the Eastern Kingdoms and I don't have a single envelope in my possession. I know that one used to receive the envelope in the mail after a few hours but that was changed in MoP. Has it reverted to the original?

I'll come back tomorrow and update this entry as to whether I receive the envelope in the mail or not.

Kommentar von linda535

Apparently this is no longer "one for each elder"; it's either bugged or they changed the rewards. I just got the Elders of the Dragon Isles achievement and while I received Lucky Red Envelopes from at least 7/8 of the elders, I only received 2 Elder's Moonstones. Not mailed, not in bags, not in bank.
