==Red and Yellow Dewdrop Minigame==
+
== Lost Curse Minigame ==
−
The '''Red and Yellow Dewdrop Minigame''' allows Hunters in the [[Twisted Garden]] to use [[Red Sponge Charm]]s or [[Red Double Sponge Charm]]s to collect [[Red Dewdrop]]s and [[Yellow Sponge Charm]]s or [[Yellow Double Sponge Charm]]s to gather [[Yellow Dewdrop]]s. Pouring [[Red Dewdrop]]s will provide a 5% Power bonus and pouring [[Yellow Dewdrop]]s will provide a +5 Luck bonus. The bonuses are active for '''all''' hunts in a pour as long as at least 1 '''Dewdrop''' of the required color is poured. Example:  If a Hunter pours a combination of 10 [[Red Dewdrop]]s and 1 [[Yellow Dewdrop]]s, which provides 12 hunts, all 12 hunts will receive both the Power and the Luck bonus.
+
To activate the '''Lost Curse Minigame''', Hunters need to catch a mouse while the [[Searcher Charm]] is armed.  
  
−
Pouring '''Dewdrops''' will provide Hunters with a number of hunts when it is possible to attract the [[Dehydrated Mouse]]. The [[Dehydrated Mouse]] is '''not''' a guaranteed attraction or catch.
+
[[Searcher Charm]]s can be purchased in the [[Lost City Charm Shoppe]] in exchange for 350 gold and 1 [[Aleth Essence]].
  
−
[[Red Sponge Charm]]s will cause [[Twisted Garden]] mice to drop 1 [[Red Dewdrop]] when caught.<br/>
+
The following message will be displayed in the [[Hunter's Journal]] when the curse is lifted:
−
[[Red Double Sponge Charm]]s will cause [[Twisted Garden]] mice to drop 2 [[Red Dewdrop]]s when caught.<br/>
+
:''The power of my Searcher Charm dispelled the Lost Curse, lifting the curse from the Lost City!<br/>I should unequip my Searcher Charms and save them for later.''
−
[[Yellow Sponge Charm]]s will cause [[Twisted Garden]] mice to drop 1 [[Yellow Dewdrop]] when caught.<br/>
 
−
[[Yellow Double Sponge Charm]]s will cause [[Twisted Garden]] mice to drop 2 [[Yellow Dewdrop]]s when caught.
 
  
−
Hunters can collected up to 10 each of the [[Red Dewdrop|Red]] and [[Yellow Dewdrop]]s.<br/>
+
The HUD message will also change to ''The curse is lifted! The Essence Collectors have stopped hiding! Watch out for that Cursed Mouse!'' Once the minigame is activated, [[Essence Collector]] mice can be attracted to the Hunter's trap, and the [[Cursed]] mouse will not be attracted for the first three hunts. The curse will reappear once the hunter encounters a [[Cursed]] mouse and the following message will be displayed:
−
'''Dewdrops''' should be collected in batches of 20 for maximum effect. Individual '''Dewdrop''' pours do '''not''' stack. <br/>
+
:''The terrible power of the Cursed Mouse re-ignited the curse on the Lost City!''
−
'''Example:''' Pouring 2 batches of 10 '''Dewdrops''' each will give the Hunter 10 hunts to attract the [[Dehydrated Mouse]] for each batch, or 20 hunts in total.  Pouring one batch of 20 '''Dewdrops''' will give Hunters 35 hunts to attract the [[Dehydrated Mouse]].<br/>
 
−
[[Red Sponge Charm]]s and [[Red Double Sponge Charm]]s will not cause mice to drop [[Red Dewdrop]]s after 10 have been collected, so the charm should be disarmed at that point.<br/>
 
−
[[Yellow Sponge Charm]]s and [[Yellow Double Sponge Charm]]s will not cause mice to drop [[Yellow Dewdrop]]s after 10 have been collected, so the charm should be disarmed at that point.<br/>

Hunters can arm the [[Safeguard Charm]] to avoid encountering the [[Cursed Mouse]]. [[Safeguard Charm]]s are regularly found in [[Living Garden Treasure Chest]]s and are available for purchase on the [[Marketplace]].

===Mice with Special Requirements===
 
−
*[[Relic Hunter Mouse]] – This mouse visits the [[Twisted Garden]] 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]].
 
−
*[[M400]] – This mouse will sometimes be available in the [[Twisted Garden]] 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. Catching this mouse in [[Twisted Garden]] will move the Hunter back to the [[Living Garden]].
 
  
 
== Hunting Strategy ==
 
== Hunting Strategy ==
−
Hunters must hunt with [[Duskshade Camembert]] in the [[Living Garden]] to catch [[Carmine the Apothecary]].  Doing so will move Hunters to the [[Twisted Garden]].<br/>
 
−
Hunting with any cheese other than [[Duskshade Camembert]] or [[Lunaria Camembert]] inthe [[Twisted Garden]] will cause Hunters to be moved to the [[Living Garden]].
 
  
−
This area is visited twice during the '''Living Garden Sequence'''. <br/>
+
===Adventure Book===
−
Initially, Hunters should arm [[Duskshade Camembert]] to collect [[Graveblossom Petal]]s from the mice found in the [[Twisted Garden]]. Hunters can then use [[Graveblossom Petal]]s to purchase [[Graveblossom Camembert]].
+
Hunters can complete steps to [[Defeat Twisted Carmine]] by hunting with [[Dewthief Camembert]] in the [[Lost City]].
  
−
[[Graveblossom Camembert]] is used in the [[Cursed City]] to collect [[Plumepearl Herbs]] and in the [[Sand Crypts]] to collect [[Lunaria Petal]]s. [[Plumepearl Herbs]] and [[Lunaria Petal]]s are used to purchase [[Lunaria Camembert]].
+
=== Hunting tips by [[Larry]] ===
−
 
+
I hope you managed to build up a large collection of [[Dewthief Camembert|Dewthief Cheese]] , hunter. The mice in this city don't seem to like anything else!
−
Hunters can then return to the [[Twisted Garden]] and arm [[Lunaria Camembert]] to capture [[Twisted Carmine]]. 
 
  
−
Hunters wishing to attract the [[Dehydrated Mouse]] must play the [[Red and Yellow Dewdrop Minigame]], which requires using '''Sponge''' charms to collect [[Red Dewdrop|Red]] and [[Yellow Dewdrop]]s.
+
Long ago something strange happened to this city: it became trapped between two dimensions. You will only find ghostly appertains here, but do not be fooled - these mice are very much alive! Existing in multiple dimensions has it's advantages and the mice have learned to control them. These mice can swipe your cheese while still being mostly immune to your trap. It would seem that they are bound to our reality by their inherent magical aspect. Because of this weakness, your Arcane traps will be extremely effective at countering these wispy foes.
  
−
===Capturing Shattered Carmine===
+
If you're looking to collect the most Garden Essences here, you'll want to dispel the Lost Curse that affects you while here. To do that, purchase a Searcher Charm from the store and catch a mouse. Simple as that! When the curse is dispelled, the Essence Collector Mouse is free to roam, and you're free to catch it and steal his cache of Garden Essences! But beware, should the Cursed Mouse show, the Lost Curse will be renewed and you'll need to use another Searcher Charm again.
−
Arming a [[Shattering Charm]] with [[Lunaria Camembert]] allows Hunters to attract [[Shattered Carmine]]. A [[Red and Yellow Dewdrop Minigame|Dewdrop Pour]] is not necessary to attract [[Shattered Carmine]], but the added Power and Luck will help in her capture.
 
  
−
[[Shattering Charm]]s can be crafted with the proper ingredients.
+
Be sure to collect all the Dreamfluff Herbs you can while you're here. You'll need them to create cheese to keep hunting with!

−
Good gracious! All the tiny, adorable, armour-laden mice from the Living Garden have become fused, twisted versions of themselves! I... I don't even know what to say!
 
−
 
 
−
I suppose I'll say this, hunter: Be careful! While it looks like they have more Garden Essence than ever before, they're definitely more powerful as well!
 
−
 
 
−
It looks like the mice here still hoard moisture just as jealously as before, but the water drops are curiously coloured! Buy Red and Yellow Sponge charms to procure Red and Yellow Dewdrops, then splash them on the ground to attract mice with even more Garden Essences. But pay attention to the drops you collect. The red ones seem to increase your power, while the yellow ones increase your luck. Perhaps collecting both of them will accomplish both of these? Only one way to find out...
 
−
 
 
−
Make sure you use your Duskshade Camembert here, hunter. The mice don't seem to enjoy any other cheese. Although perhaps you'll discover yet another cheese later on to help you attract very, very powerful and special mice!

This city suffered a terrible curse and was lost between dimensions! The mice residing here are ghostly apparitions as well, trapped between dimensions in an incorporeal state.

Overview

The Lost City is a location in the Sandtail Desert region requiring a minimum rank of Baron/Baroness and the Living Garden Key to enter. The Living Garden Key is obtained from the Cartographer at the Muridae Market.

Mice in the Lost City are weak only to Arcane weapons.

Duskshade Camembert is required for attracting all mice in the Lost City. Hunters must use Searcher Charms and play the Lost Curse Minigame to attract the Essence Collector Mouse.

Hunters must collect Dreamfluff Herbs to use in purchasing Duskshade Camembert. Duskshade Camembert is required for attracting Carmine the Apothecary in the Living Garden to enter the Twisted World.

Accessing the Twisted World

The Twisted World locations of Twisted Garden, Cursed City, and Sand Crypts can only be accessed by capturing Carmine the Apothecary with Duskshade Camembert in the Living Garden. Capturing Carmine the Apothecary will move the Hunter to the Twisted Garden and the following message is displayed:

On catching Carmine the Apothecary, a light flashes and a spell she had prepared in advance erupts! Nightmarish tendrils of dark smoke burst from the ground around me, and before I knew it the world had changed before my very eyes into a wild and twisted version of itself.
I can feel this world itself attempting to reject me and send me back, but I must stay as long as I am able to find out what Carmine is doing in this hidden, dark place.

Hunting with any cheese other than Graveblossom Camembert in the Cursed City will cause Hunters to be moved to the Lost City and the following message will be displayed:

Almost as if an illusion suddenly shattered, the world around me snaps back to normal. Using X Cheese has brought me back to the normal world.

If an M400 Hunting Research Assignment requires capturing the M400 in the Lost City, Hunters can encounter it in the Cursed City, but will be dropped to normal reality for hunting with the wrong cheese.

The Living Garden Sequence

Hunters will need to hunt the areas in the Living Garden sub-region in a specific order. The following steps outline the basic requirements for accessing and hunting in each location. Additional information on minigames and other activities can be found on the individual location pages.

The steps of the cycle that can be completed in the Lost City location are highlighted in bold.

Step 1a: Hunt with Standard Cheese in the Living Garden to collect Dewthief Petals.
Step 1b: Use Dewthief Petals to purchase Dewthief Camembert.
Step 2a: Hunt with Dewthief Camembert in the Lost City to collect Dreamfluff Herbs.
Step 2b: Hunt with Dewthief Camembert in the Sand Dunes to collect Duskshade Petals.
Step 2c: Use Dreamfluff Herbs and Duskshade Petals to purchase Duskshade Camembert.
Step 3a: Hunt with Duskshade Camembert in the Living Garden.
Step 3b: Capture Carmine the Apothecary to open the Twisted World and travel to the Twisted Garden.
Step 4a: Hunt with Duskshade Camembert in the Twisted Garden to collect Graveblossom Petals.
Step 4b: Use Graveblossom Petals to purchase Graveblossom Camembert.
Step 5a: Hunt with Graveblossom Camembert in the Cursed City to collect Plumepearl Herbs.
Step 5b: Hunt with Graveblossom Camembert in the Sand Crypts to collect Lunaria Petals.
Step 5c: Use Plumepearl Herbs and Lunaria Petals to purchase Lunaria Camembert.
Hunt with Lunaria Camembert in the Twisted Garden to attract Twisted Carmine.

Lost City HUD

Hunters can access and track the following using the Heads-Up Display:

Lost Curse Minigame

To activate the Lost Curse Minigame, Hunters need to catch a mouse while the Searcher Charm is armed.

Searcher Charms can be purchased in the Lost City Charm Shoppe in exchange for 350 gold and 1 Aleth Essence.

The following message will be displayed in the Hunter's Journal when the curse is lifted:

The power of my Searcher Charm dispelled the Lost Curse, lifting the curse from the Lost City!
I should unequip my Searcher Charms and save them for later.

The HUD message will also change to The curse is lifted! The Essence Collectors have stopped hiding! Watch out for that Cursed Mouse! Once the minigame is activated, Essence Collector mice can be attracted to the Hunter's trap, and the Cursed mouse will not be attracted for the first three hunts. The curse will reappear once the hunter encounters a Cursed mouse and the following message will be displayed:

The terrible power of the Cursed Mouse re-ignited the curse on the Lost City!

Hunters can arm the Safeguard Charm to avoid encountering the Cursed Mouse. Safeguard Charms are regularly found in Living Garden Treasure Chests and are available for purchase on the Marketplace.

Hunting tips by Larry

I hope you managed to build up a large collection of Dewthief Cheese , hunter. The mice in this city don't seem to like anything else!

Long ago something strange happened to this city: it became trapped between two dimensions. You will only find ghostly appertains here, but do not be fooled - these mice are very much alive! Existing in multiple dimensions has it's advantages and the mice have learned to control them. These mice can swipe your cheese while still being mostly immune to your trap. It would seem that they are bound to our reality by their inherent magical aspect. Because of this weakness, your Arcane traps will be extremely effective at countering these wispy foes.

If you're looking to collect the most Garden Essences here, you'll want to dispel the Lost Curse that affects you while here. To do that, purchase a Searcher Charm from the store and catch a mouse. Simple as that! When the curse is dispelled, the Essence Collector Mouse is free to roam, and you're free to catch it and steal his cache of Garden Essences! But beware, should the Cursed Mouse show, the Lost Curse will be renewed and you'll need to use another Searcher Charm again.

Be sure to collect all the Dreamfluff Herbs you can while you're here. You'll need them to create cheese to keep hunting with!
