Jet Stream Event

The Jet Stream Event is an event that takes place in the Floating Islands location.

Overview

During the event time, Jet Stream mechanics are in effect:

• The Stream level is between 0 - 100.

• Catching a Sky Warden or Sky Paragon increases the stream level by 25

When the effect activates, it generates a journal entry:

Capturing a XXX Warden/Paragon channeled their control of the Jet Stream into my airship's sails, extending my Jet Stream Bonus by 25 hunts!

• Hunting on a Low or High Altitude Island decreases the stream level by 1 per hunt

• When the stream level is greater than 0, the Hunter receives boosts:

• +1 Speed on Low and High Altitude Islands
• Catching a Sky Warden or Sky Paragon generates additional Storm Cell. The number of Cells gained depends on the Stream Strength:

• Low Strength (stream level between 1 - 24): 2 Storm Cells
• Medium Strength (stream level between 25 - 49): 4 Storm Cells
• High Strength (stream level between 50 - 100): 8 Storm Cells

When the effect activates, it generates a journal entry:

Catching this mouse while within a XXX Strength Jet Stream also allowed me to find:
