The Marching Flame has attacked and pillaged much of the Sandtail Desert and now their warpath is headed towards Gnawnia! Their battalions attack in waves and seem to endlessly march over the horizon. All that stands between them and conquering Gnawnia are the brave hunters who camp here. |
Overview
The Fiery Warpath is a location in the Sandtail Desert region requiring a minimum rank of Baron/Baroness and a Sandtail Call to Arms to enter, which can be obtained as a reward for completing the Capture the Mystic and Technic Kings Adventure in the Seasonal Garden and Zugzwang's Tower.
Mice in this location may steal points, gold, or multiple pieces of cheese if not captured.
Hunters must earn 1 Warpath Victory by defeating the Warmonger Mouse in order to travel to the Muridae Market location.
Waves
There are four waves of mice that Hunters must defeat in order to reach the Warmonger Mouse and defeat The Marching Flame. Hunters must defeat each wave before they can face the next wave.
Waves 1 through 3
Streaks
Streaks only occur in Wave One, Wave Two, and Wave Three.
A streak is obtained by capturing the same type of mouse one after another.
- Capturing 3 of the same mouse in a row will cause 2 additional mice of the same type to retreat.
- Capturing 6 of the same mouse in a row will cause 4 additional mice of the same type to retreat.
- Capturing 9 of the same mouse in a row will cause 6 additional mice of the same type to retreat.
A message appears in the Hunter's Journal when a streak causes mice to retreat:
I caught [X] [Mouse Name] Mice in a row! This demoralizing blow has caused [X] more of them to retreat!
Failures to catch or attract any mouse will break a streak.
Capturing any other mouse type will break a streak.
Various Fiery Warpath Charms can be used to target specific mice to help build streaks.
Failing to capture a Caravan Guard Mouse will cause one mouse of each type to be added to a wave. However, if a Hunter has one or more friends also hunting in the Fiery Warpath, reinforcements may be prevented. Catching this mouse ends a streak, but does not add mice to the wave.
Capturing a Crimson Commander Mouse will cause a number of mice equal to the current streak to retreat from each group. A streak of 0 will result in 1 mouse from each group retreating. Catching this mouse ends a streak.
When Hunters achieve a streak of 7 or more, it becomes possible to attract the Gargantuamouse. The likelihood of attracting this mouse increases as the streak grows. Catching this mouse ends a streak.
Once all mice in a wave have been defeated, Hunters will move on to the next wave of mice.
Hunters may use an Artillery Strike Launch Box to launch an Artillery Strike during Waves 1-3 and defeat an entire wave of mice. Launching an Artillery Strike creates an entry in the Hunter's Journal:
- The mice scattered in terror as a rain of explosive steel shattered the earth!
- I moved to the next wave.
Wave 4
Hunters must capture 12 Theurgy Warden mice before they will be able to capture the Warmonger Mouse.
Hunters may encounter the Warmonger Mouse before capturing all 12 Theurgy Wardens, but will be unable to capture it unless they arm an Ultimate Charm.
Capturing a Warmonger Mouse will earn Hunters a Warpath Victory and will reset the Fiery Warpath to Wave One.
Warpath Victories are required for entering Muridae Market and for purchasing certain items in Muridae Market Shops and Fiery Warpath Shops.
Artillery Commander's Tent
During Wave Four Hunters may enter the Artillery Commander's Tent by using a Warpath Portal Projector.
Hunters must capture 5 Theurgy Warden mice before they will be able to capture the Artillery Commander Mouse.
Hunters may encounter the Artillery Commander Mouse before capturing all 5 Theurgy Wardens, but will be unable to capture it unless they arm an Ultimate Charm.
Capturing an Artillery Commander Mouse will earn Hunters an Artillery Strike Launch Box and will return them to their position in Wave Four.

Mice with Special Requirements
- Relic Hunter Mouse – This mouse visits the Fiery Warpath on an irregular basis. It does not consume cheese or charms. Hunters must have an Ancient Relic in their inventory to attract this mouse. The Ancient Relic will be taken by the Relic Hunter Mouse in exchange for a Relic Hunter Scroll Case.
- Catching a Relic Hunter Mouse in the Fiery Warpath will not break a streak.
- M400 – This mouse will sometimes be available in the Fiery Warpath when Hunters are actively working an M400 Hunting Research Assignment. It is attracted only to Fusion Fondue which will not attract any other mice. It drops a wide variety of loot.

Upon completing Wave One, the following message will be displayed on the Journal:
- As the last [Mouse Name] was captured by my trap, the First Wave was defeated. I was awarded one Commander's Charm.
- Onward to victory!

Artillery Commander's Tent
To access the Artillery Commander's Tent, Hunters must acquire 1 Warpath Victory, 150 Flameshards, 1 Warpath Portal Core, and 1 Warpath Portal Console in order to purchase the Warpath Portal Projector. The Warpath Portal Projector will allow Hunters to enter the Artillery Commander's Tent during Wave Four. It is consumed in the process, replaced with a Ruined Portal Projector collectible.
Warpath Portal Cores and Warpath Portal Consoles are found as rewards in Warpath Treasure Chests and Rare Warpath Treasure Chests. They can be traded on the Marketplace.
Hunters must catch 5 Theurgy Wardens in the Artillery Commander's Tent before they will be able to capture the Artillery Commander.
The Artillery Commander may be encountered prior to catching all 5 Theurgy Wardens, but Hunters will not be able to capture it without using an Ultimate Charm.
Upon capturing an Artillery Commander, hunters will be returned to Wave Four and the following message appears in the journal:
- As I captured Artillery Commander Mouse, a strange metallic suitcase clunked onto the ground. Flipping it open, I was faced with an odd electronic interface which is used to call down an artillery strike against waves of mice in the Fiery Warpath!
To reenter the Artillery Commander's Tent Hunters will need to purchase another Warpath Portal Projector. Hunters may enter the Artillery Commander's Tent multiple times without affecting their position in Wave Four.
Artillery Commander's Tent Mice
Theurgy Warden Mouse is primarily weak to Physical traps while Artillery Commander Mouse is primarily weak to Arcane traps.
Standard Cheese and SUPER|brie+ will attract both mice in Artillery Commander's Tent

Hunting Strategy
Hunters must defeat waves of The Marching Flame in order to confront and defeat the Warmonger Mouse.
Mice in the Fiery Warpath are attracted to Standard Cheese and SUPER|brie+, though the higher attraction rate of SUPER|brie+ is preferable when trying to build streaks.
A variety of Fiery Warpath Charms are available to Hunters to help defeat the mice of The Marching Flame.
Waves
Each wave must be defeated before Hunters can continue on to the next wave.
Hunters are rewarded with a Warpath Commander's Charm for defeating each wave except the 4th.
Defeating the 4th wave by capturing the Warmonger Mouse rewards Hunters with 1 Warpath Victory.

- Hunters may use an Ultimate Charm to capture a Warmonger before all 12 Theurgy Warden mice are captured.
- The Warmonger Mouse is guaranteed to drop an Oasis Bead, Sandblasted Metal, or Sphynx Crystal the first time it is caught by a Hunter. Monger Charms can increase the chance of those trap loots for subsequent hunts, but trap loot drops are not guaranteed.
- Artillery Commander's Tent
- During Wave Four Hunters may enter the Artillery Commander's Tent by using a Warpath Portal Projector.
- Hunters must capture 5 Theurgy Warden mice before they will be able to capture the Artillery Commander Mouse.
- Hunters may encounter the Artillery Commander Mouse before capturing all 5 Theurgy Wardens, but will be unable to capture it unless they arm an Ultimate Charm.
- Capturing an Artillery Commander Mouse will earn Hunters an Artillery Strike Launch Box and will return them to their position in Wave Four.
Streaks
Building streaks is the quickest way to defeat the mice found in the Fiery Warpath.
A streak is obtained by capturing the same class of mouse one after another.
- Capturing 3 of the same mouse in a row will cause 2 additional mice of the same type to retreat.
- Capturing 6 of the same mouse in a row will cause 4 additional mice of the same type to retreat.
- Capturing 9 of the same mouse in a row will cause 6 additional mice of the same type to retreat.
Failures to catch or attract any mouse will break a streak.
Capturing any other mouse type will break a streak.
Various Fiery Warpath Charms can be used to target specific mice to help build streaks.
- There is a 'basic' charm for each class of mouse (except for Artillery) which increases the attraction rate of that unit, and a 'super' version that also provide a power bonus against each unit.
Mice that are forced to the retreat do not count as "caught" for a Hunter's statistics. They simply leave the area, reducing the number of mice Hunters need to catch to defeat the wave.
Leaving the Fiery Warpath will not affect a streak.
Artillery Strike
During Waves 1 - 3 Hunters may launch an Artillery Strike if they have an Artillery Strike Launch Box in their inventory. An Artillery Strike cannot be launched to defeat Wave 4 mice.
Launching an Artillery Strike will consume the Artillery Strike Launch Box and defeat the current Wave of mice instantly, allowing the Hunter to move to the next Wave of mice.
Support Mice
Support mice cannot form streaks, but can add and subtract mice from the current Wave. These mice are only found in waves 1 - 3.
Support mice retreat when the size of the Wave is reduced to a certain point. They can no longer be attracted after this point is reached.
- Wave 1: less than 11 mice remaining.
- Wave 2: less than 19 mice remaining.
- Wave 3: less than 27 mice remaining.
There are two Support mice.
- Capturing this mouse will break a streak, but will not add mice to the Wave.
- Failure to capture this mouse will add 1 mouse of each class to the wave.
- If Hunters have at least one friend hunting in the Fiery Warpath, there is a chance that these reinforcements will be prevented.
- Arming SUPER|brie+ reduces the attraction rate of this mouse.
- Hunter's Journal messages:
- Strength in numbers! After I failed to catch a Caravan Guard Mouse, members of my hunting party were able to prevent the mouse reinforcements from arriving!
- or
- Failing to capture a Caravan Guard Mouse allowed reinforcements to arrive!
- More mice have been added to the wave!
- Strength in numbers! After I failed to catch a Caravan Guard Mouse, members of my hunting party were able to prevent the mouse reinforcements from arriving!
- Capturing this mouse will cause a number of mice equal to the current streak to retreat from each group. A streak of 0 will result in 1 mouse from each group retreating. Catching this mouse ends a streak.
- A failure to capture this mouse will break a streak and will not add or subtract any mice from the wave.
- Arming SUPER|brie+ increases the attraction rate of this mouse.
- Hunter's Journal message:
- By capturing a Crimson Commander Mouse I demoralized the remaining mice in this wave!
- My current streak was [X].
- [X] of each mouse have retreated!
Gargantuamouse
When Hunters achieve a streak of 7 or more in waves 1 - 3, it becomes possible to attract the Gargantuamouse. The likelihood of attracting this mouse increases as the streak grows. Catching this mouse ends a streak.
This mouse's primary weakness is to Draconic traps. Arcane, Hydro, Physical, and Tactical traps are less effective and are much less likely to capture this mouse.
Using a Gargantua Charm will reduce the population to just the Gargantuamouse, but will not guarantee that Hunters catch the mouse. It is still possible to fail to attract a mouse with this charm, so Hunters should arm SUPER|brie+ for the best possible attraction rate. This charm is always consumed, so Hunters should be prepared to disarm their supply immediately after taking a hunt.
When a hunter fails to capture a Gargantuamouse, the following message will appear on the Hunter's Journal:
- Fearing that I was gaining the upper hand, the Warmonger released a Gargantuamouse, putting an end to my streak.
The Gargantuamouse cannot be encountered in Wave 4.
Location-Specific Effects
Weapons
- The Warpath Thrasher is a Limited Edition trap that provides a bonus of 4500 power and 24 luck in waves 1-3 of the Fiery Warpath. The extra power and luck effect is quickly reduced to zero as the number of available mice is reduced to 50% of the starting total of all mice in the wave.

Hunting tips by Larry
The Marching Flame are preparing to invade Gnawnia. Their Fiery Warpath to the castle has reached a standoff in the Sandtail Desert where you must hold them back at all costs! These mice are highly organized, you must defeat each wave before progressing to the next.
Capturing the same type of mouse multiple times in a row will demoralize the troops, causing that type to regroup off the battlefield. The higher your streak, the more will retreat. Capturing a Crimson Commander while having a high streak will cause even more to retreat as they carry the commands throughout the battalion.
The King has stocked a Charm Shoppe that will help you achieve these high streaks and outmanoeuvre your enemy. The Marching Flame is equally prepared, though. Failing to capture Caravan Guard Mice will allow reinforcements to arrive. According to the King's scouts, SUPER|brie+ is known to attract more Crimson Commanders and fewer Caravan Guards.
Within the fourth and final wave is their leader, a Warmonger Mouse. Be warned that although the Warmonger Mouse can be encountered at any time during this wave, they will be immune to capture until you have defeated all of the Theurgy Warden Mice that guard them. When you succeed in catching a Warmonger Mouse, the rewards will be great. However, after capturing your first, the Warmongers will be keen to your threat and will guard their loot more closely.
Best of luck hunter! No victory is too small and no defeat is too great. One mouse or one hunter could turn the tide of the war. Gnawnia needs you to succeed!
