<p>This odd-looking trap has been specifically designed for battling hordes of the Marching Flame. During the beginning of each wave, this trap receives a massive bonus to both its power and luck that diminish as mice are removed from the wave.</p>

<p>At the beginning of each Warpath Wave, the Warpath Thrasher has 9,000 power and 30 luck! However, as you catch mice, the Warpath Thrasher becomes less effective and its power and luck will reduce. When using this weapon, keep an eye on your trap's stats to know when it's time to switch to a more conventional weapon.</p>

On Tuesday, January 6, 2026, the Great Winter Hunt event will enter its shutdown phase. At this time, Pecan Pecorino and Golem Parts will no longer be found as loot drops. Forges will still work at the Golem Workshop and Cannons can still be fired at the Ice Fortress but Compressed Cinnamon will no longer drop in Cinnamon Hill.</div>

<p>Rockstar Mice love a good party! It did not take long for several Rockstars to jump off Ronza's ship and join the celebration at the Year of the Dragon Festival. Attracting one to your trap, however, requires an especially rockin' bait! Hunt aboard Ronza's ship where you can find Rockforth Cheese as loot. With Rockforth armed, you can then attract Rockstar Mice at the Dragon Festival!</p>

<p>'''REMEMBER''': Due to the extreme volume of this cheese, a hunter may not have more than 99 pieces at a time.</p>
