==== The Magic of the Cauldrons is Coming to an End ====
+
==== The Frost King's Latest Attack ====
−
The brave hunters of Gnawnia have been so successful in capturing Baba Gaga and her evil minions that they've managed to completely rid the Gloomy Greenwood of all its foul ingredients! Now that the wicked wood witch is on the run, the magic that keeps her cauldrons brewing is starting to fade away and her hut, along with her minions, will soon leave that dark and dreary forest.
+
The return of wintry weather has once again allowed the Frost King to construct his massive Ice Fortress. Hunters will need to smash their way through the Frost King's protective ice shield in order to end his plan to plunge Gnawnia into perpetual winter.
−
 
 
−
There are '''two stages to the shutdown''' of the Boiling Cauldron event to help hunters to maximize their event rewards. The details of the two stages are outlined below.

==== November 2 to November 9, 2021 ====

−
As of November 2, 2021, all the mice in the Gloomy Greenwood '''will no longer drop any ingredients including Mousedrake Root'''.
+
Visit the Great Winter Taiga to find magical snow golems that are perfect for collecting all sorts of resources! Along with useful hunting supplies, your golems can collect powerful Hailstones to smash through the Ice Fortress' shield.
  
−
Any ingredients that you've already collected can still be brewed and '''everything else will remain unchanged'''.

==== Welcome to the Gloomy Greenwood ====
 
−
Larry the Friendly Knight has finally discovered a way into the mysterious forest in the Burroughs, North of the Toxic Spill. There he has uncovered a most unusual sight: a chicken-legged hut just sitting in the middle of the woods!
 
−
 
 
−
He has dubbed this new area the '''Gloomy Greenwood''' on account of its dreary and unwelcoming atmosphere. Unfortunately, when Larry arrived he discovered that the area was already densely populated with some very spooky critters, namely the Halloween event mice. But this year, the spookiest mice in the Kingdom are following a new leader and it is none other than the legendary witch: '''Baba Gaga'''!
 
−
 
 
−
==== Collect Ingredients and Start Brewing ====
 
−
The only way to defeat Baba Gaga and her monstrous minions is to use her own enchanted cauldrons against her! You'll need to collect ingredients from the mice in the Gloomy Greenwood and then put those ingredients into the cauldrons in order to start brewing up spooky flavours of cheese!
 
−
 
 
−
Click on either cauldron to open up Baba Gaga's '''Recipe Book''' where you'll find all the information you need to start brewing her sinister concoctions.
 
−
 
 
−
Start by using any basic bait to catch the least spooky mice in the Gloomy Greenwood and collect the '''Pungent Pumpkins''' that they are carrying. If you have any leftover Halloween event cheese from previous years then you can use that instead of basic bait.
 
−
 
 
−
Add these Pungent Pumpkins into a cauldron based on Baba Gaga's recipe to brew a batch of '''Monterey Jack-O-Lantern'''. With Monterey Jack-O-Lantern armed, you'll be able to attract spookier mice who drop spookier ingredients.
 
−
 
 
−
Each tier of mice will drop the ingredient you need to make the next tier of cheese. There are four different types of cheese and each one will attract a unique pool of Halloween event mice. Work your way up to '''Scream Cheese''' in order to attract the villainous Baba Gaga herself!
 
  
−
When hunting with any of the new types of cheese, mice will also drop a very valuable ingredient called '''Mousedrake Root'''. Use this potent component to distill Baba Gaga's most powerful brew: Evil Extract!

'''Revisions to the Town of Gnawnia and Windmill!'''<br>

Faster progression, increased rewards, and improved attraction rates.

==== The Town of Gnawnia and Windmill Welcome New Hunters ====
 
−
Larry the Friendly Knight has spent seemingly countless hours training new Recruits and helping them hone their hunting skills. Over his many years of diligent tutelage, Larry has certainly refined his process and often tried brand new training techniques. Today, in coordination with the King and utilizing some of the feedback from the Great Gnawnian Census Larry has put together his most recent changes to his methods!
 
−
 
−
Thanks to Larry's updated techniques, new hunters in the Town of Gnawnia will now have a much easier time attracting and capturing most mice while reaping greater rewards for securing the town. After many years of feasting on stolen cheese from new hunters, the Town of Gnawnia mice have become more picky about which types of cheese they are attracted to -- as a consequence, hunters should be able to more effectively single out bounty targets by using their preferred bait!
 
−
 
−
Meanwhile, the Windmill has received an upgrade by order of the King, and will now churn out Packets of Flour reliably every time a mouse is caught. The faster the Windmill spins, the more flour it will consistently produce! To account for this increased rate of production, the Windmill Cheese Shoppe now only accepts orders for Grilled Cheese in batches of 5, which means more attempts at capturing the elusive Captain Croissant!
 
−
 
−
<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em">
 
−
''The Windmill HUD within the mobile app may appear out of date until the latest update has been downloaded. Keep an eye out for an update '''v1.112.0''' (or higher) in the App Store and Google Play.''
 
−
</div>
 
−
 
−
==== A Cheese Making Breakthrough! ====
 
−
 
−
New and veteran MouseHunters alike will be pleased to hear that the King has been hard at work developing a new cheese aging process which increases the efficacy of cheese in attracting mice. More affordable cheeses like Cheddar and Marble have received the greatest gains from this new development. However, most types of cheese including Gouda and crafted varieties of cheese will benefit from this new process by failing to attract less often.
 
−
 
−
Where Cheddar Cheese used to attract a mouse roughly half of the time, Larry has measured the new attraction rate to be around 70% using this new process. Similarly, Marble now attracts at a rate of 75%, Swiss at 80%, Brie at 85%, and Gouda 90%.
 
−
 
−
In combination with Larry's updated hunting techniques, various mice indigenous to Gnawnia have had specific weaknesses exposed and will be easier to capture for all hunters.
 
−
 
−
These training endeavors are just a part of Larry's endless commitment to improving his training methods! As Larry continues to hone his methods and learn new techniques, future generations of MouseHunters can expect further improvements as time goes on.

==== Aerial Treasure Master Deal Ends Soon ====
 
−
 
−
Hunters throughout Hollow Heights have made good use of the new supply routes charted by the Floating Islands Cartographer to seek out and intercept the many treasures of the Empyrean Empire.

Today is the final day to pick up the special Aerial Treasure Master Bundle from the Premium Shoppe before it's gone.

The Great Winter Hunt is one of the biggest events of the year and there's so much more than golems. Hunt with friends to complete Nice and Naughty List Treasure Maps, reveal loot and prizes in the Snowball Showdown, leave something special under a friend's profile tree, and so much more! To help keep tabs on when things are happening, a calendar can be viewed via the heads-up display at the Great Winter Taiga.

Reminder: Each Gnawnian Day begins at midnight UTC

Stuck Snowball Sundays

Stuck Snowball mice will drop a quantity of Throwable Snowballs or Super Snowball Charms equal to the number of Stuck Snowball mice you've captured during this year's event.

Animated Snow Storm

During the 48 hour storm, all mice in the taiga will drop Animated Snow with the Snowflake, Glazy, and Joy mice dropping the most.

Grand Gift Opening Ceremony

Players can leave gifts under profile trees up until the ceremony on December 18. Once the ceremony is held, gifts can be opened but no longer sent.

New Year's Celebration

Keep an eye out for an update on December 30 at approximately 4:00pm UTC to start the New Year's celebration! There will be a map to complete and new rewards to earn!
