'''The King's Vault is Open!'''
  
====Updates to Rift Equipment to Address Bugs====
+
Open prize packs and gain access to the King's Vault filled with goodies!
Greetings, hunters. We recently discovered two related bugs that were affecting both the Prestige Base as well as the Riftwalker and Riftstalker set bonuses. These bugs were causing the various bonuses involved with the base and sets to be doubled in some cases. The issue affecting the Riftwalker (and later Riftstalker) set bonus appears to have been introduced in February, 2015 when the Taunting Charm was given the relevant rift-set bonus when encountering certain mice. The Prestige Base has been affected since its introduction in October 2019.
 
  
After carefully reviewing the cause of the problem we decided to fix the error but also increase the bonuses of the Prestige Base, Riftwalker, and Riftstalker sets to still grant the same increased bonuses. However, these increased bonuses will now correctly appear in your trap stats. Or in other words, instead of lowering the stats, we've adopted these unintended "hidden" bonuses and they will now be displayed.
 
  
====Riftwalker and Riftstalker Set Specifics====
+
==== The King's Giveaway has BEGUN! ====
 +
The gilded gates protecting the King's Royal Treasure Vault have been opened and the King's Giveaway has begun!
  
The bug affecting the Riftwalker and Riftstalker set were doubling the additional ''''Power Bonus''' these sets provide when two pieces of Rift equipment are armed. However, the '''Luck''' of these sets was '''NOT''' affected.
+
From now until '''July 2''', the Treasurer, Snooty, High Roller, Mobster, and Leprechaun mice will be encountered more frequently everywhere in the Kingdom!
  
Therefore, the Riftwalker Set Bonus has been updated to provide a 20% Power Bonus, and the Riftstalker Set bonus updated to provide a 40% Power Bonus. Once again, these additional bonuses were already being applied while hunting, but were previously not visible in your trap's stats.
+
During the giveaway, each time you attract a mouse, you'll have a chance to attract a prize mouse as a '''bonus hunt''' which does not consume any cheese or charms and will appear as an additional hunt in your Hunter's Journal.
  
====Prestige Base Specifics====
+
<center>''Capture these rare and valuable mice for Prize Keys and a chance to win SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+, King's Credits, and more!''</center>
  
The bug affecting the Prestige Base was providing both double the Power and Luck given based on your highest floor reached during Ultimate Umbra.
+
==== King's Prize Keys and The Vault ====
  
Therefore, the Prestige Base has been updated to provide 20 Power per highest floor reached during Ultimate Umbra and +2 Luck per Eclipse Floor reached during Ultimate Umbra. As was the case with the Riftwalker/Riftstalker sets, these increased stats were already being applied while hunting, but were previously not visible in your trap's stats.
+
The greedy prize mice have snatched up '''ALL''' the keys this year! Only prize mice will drop King's Prize Keys but they will always drop at least one! Use these keys to open 10 Mystery Prize Packs from your Hunter's Camp. These packs contain all sorts of goodies such as Gold, Regal Charms, King's Credits and SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+!
  
====Why we're adopting the higher stats====
+
Once you've opened 10 Mystery Prize Packs, the King will allow you to peek into the vault and select one of three randomly offered, highly valuable prizes! Once a prize has been selected from the vault, the door will slam shut and the prizes will reset. You may visit the vault every time you open 10 prize packs!
  
If we were not to adopt the higher stats than hunters who had already utilized these bonuses to reach higher floors within the Valour Rift Gauntlet Tower, or accomplish other difficult feats within the Rift Plane would have had an advantage.
+
<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em; margin: 1em 0">
 +
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''The King's Vault will close on July 9.'''<br>
 +
Once the giveaway ends, any King's Prize Keys in your inventory will be removed, so make sure to use them up!
 +
</div></div>
  
Keeping the playing field level feels especially important due to the nature of the Prestige Base. We felt removing bonuses that in some cases have been active for more than five years didn't make sense. By adopting the higher stats the catch rates and expectations hunters have already come to know will remain the same, and future hunters will have an equal opportunity to accomplish the same difficult feats in the Rift Plane.
 
  
After getting feedback from a variety of hunters, we realized that no single solution to address the issue would be popular with every group of player. We still welcome continued feedback and are weighing other additions such as new functionality for the Clockwork Base as part of a future patch. Please keep the feedback and suggestions coming!
+
==== Prized Items ====
 +
Capturing a Treasurer, Snooty, or High Roller Mouse will reward you with King's Credits which you can spend at the King's Arms or King's Cart for equipment to help you in a wide range of hunting endeavours.
  
-- {{MHP|502041253|Dave Vanderburg}}
+
Capturing a Mobster Mouse will reward you with SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ in quantities of 25, 50, 75, 100, 250, 500, or even 1,000!
  
 +
Considered some of the most rare items in the Kingdom are the Mystery Pot of Gold and Mystery Satchel of Gold dropped by the extremely rare and elusive '''Leprechaun Mouse'''. Should you have the extraordinary luck of not only encountering but also capturing a Leprechaun Mouse it will most often drop a Mystery Satchel of Gold containing a generous quantity of Gold along with SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ and charms. On more rare occasions, the Leprechaun will drop a Mystery Pot of Gold which contains even more SUPER<nowiki>|</nowiki>brie+ and the chance of a cash prize!

==== Rainbow Treasure Maps ====
 +
 
 +
Inside the King's Vault, hunters may have the option to select a Rainbow Scroll Case as one possible reward.

The exchange costs a regular Rainbow Scroll Case, 1 Rare Map Dust, and 50 Magic Essence. This jumbo scroll contains the same massive map, but allows for '''10 hunters''' to participate!
 +
 
 +
Whether you take on a regular or party size map they'll both lead to the same Rainbow Treasure Chest rewarding Gold, Points, Ancient Charms, Rainbow Charms, King's Credits, and more!

====Tournament Hall Updates====
+
<center>The event will end at approximately 3:00pm UTC</center>
The spirit of competition thriving at the Tournament Hall has lured the Great Gnawnian Games mice out of hibernation! These sporty mice can now be found at the Tournament Hall running, jumping, swimming, and well, generally competing with each other!
 
  
To lure these quick and athletic mice to your trap, you'll first need to grab hold of some Runny Cheese! This can be collected at the Tournament Hall while hunting with any standard variety of cheese from the Cheese Shoppe. Arm your Runny Cheese at the Tournament Hall to attract the five unique Great Gnawnian Games breeds of mice. Keep an eye out for the Extreme Everysports Mouse: Should hunters manage to catch it, they may find it drops an occasional Tournament Token that it was hoarding from its many competitive victories!
+
==== A Reminder About Bonus Hunts ====
 +
Bonus hunts do not affect area progression, consume cheese or charms, or trigger special hunting effects and abilities. This means bonus hunts will not do things such as move your submarine forward in the Sunken City, advance your position in the Valour Rift, affect rage levels in Whisker Woods Rift, etc.
  
*25 Runny Cheese
+
The "special" bonuses '''specifically''' provided by your trap, base, charm, and aura(s) (not area bonuses like the Furoma Rift Droid) are taken into account as expected when encountering a mouse on a bonus hunt.
:Lure Sporty Mice
 
  
Finally, a few items associated with the Great Gnawnian Games items are now available at the Tournament Hall. You can purchase the Winter Cup Dissonance Trap Skin for 130 Tournament Tokens, a collectible Miniature Torch for 5 Tournament Tokens, and while hunting the sporty mice at the Tournament Hall, you'll find three unique journal theme scrap pieces to craft the Gnawnian Games Journal Theme!

Bonus hunts do not affect area progression, consume cheese or charms, or trigger special hunting effects and abilities. This means bonus hunts will not do things such as move your submarine forward in the Sunken City, advance your position in the Valour Rift, affect rage levels in Whisker Woods Rift, etc.
