Hunting Strategy
Lost Curse Minigame
To activate the Lost Curse Minigame, a hunter needs to catch a mouse while the Searcher Charm is armed. The following message will be displayed in the Hunter's Journal upon activation:
- 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, at which time the following message will be displayed:
- The terrible power of the Cursed Mouse re-ignited the curse on the Lost City!
While playing the minigame is the fastest way to collect Garden Essences, it is by no means a requirement.
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!
