| |
− | ====The Year of the Dragon is Upon Us!====
| |
− | This Lunar New Year marks the Year of the Dragon, and with that comes the [[Year of the Dragon Festival]]! The King has decided to celebrate this year's Lunar New Year in high style and has converted the Vacant Lot into a grand festival of bright lights and booming sounds!

| |
− | Come join fellow hunters on the festival grounds, track down the mice, and light up the sky!
| |

| |
− | ====Find Missing Fireworks====
| |
− |
| |
− | Hunt down any of the mice in the Year of the Dragon Festival event location to find [[Firecracker Charm]]s, or receive a small amount in your [[Loyalty Chest]]s. These charms are only a small part of the fireworks display, but using them will help attract more of the mice in the area carrying the bigger explosives. Find several of these charms, equip them, then seek out the [[Costumed Tiger]] Mouse for some [[Nitropop Potion]]s!
| |
− |
| |
− | These volatile concoctions are required to create [[Nitropop Charm]]s. Be extremely careful when handling these bottles of explosive liquid! Use these potions to convert Firecracker Charms into Nitropop Charms. The bigger the explosion, the bigger the mouse you attract! Keep the celebrations going by finding and creating bigger and bolder blasts!
| |
− |
| |
− | ====The Costumed Dragon Mouse====
| |
− |
| |
− | As the celebrations continue, and the fireworks display grows more intense, hunters will begin to spot the [[Costumed Dragon]] Mouse roaming the festival grounds, attracted by all the sights and sounds. Capture the Costumed Dragon Mouse to obtain the fabled [[Dragon Seal]].
| |
− |
| |
− | ====A Special Lunar New Year Trap Skin -- [[Dragonbreath ACRONYM Skin|The Dragonbreath ACRONYM]]====
| |

− | ===Tournament Hall Grand Opening===
| |
− | ''{{date|12|January|2012}}''
| |
− | <blockquote>
| |
− | After a lengthy construction process, the King's [[Tournament Hall]] has opened its doors to hunters!
| |
− |
| |
− | The Tournament Hall is located in Valour and has a variety of shoppes where you can exchange your Tournament Tokens for hunting loot and equipment.
| |
− |
| |
− | ====Tournament Bases====
| |
− |
| |
− | The King has commissioned the creation of three new bases as rewards for the most dedicated of tournament competitors!
| |
− |
| |
− | Although these bases have impressive stats on their own, they really shine when armed with a [[Champion Charm]]. Along with the extra luck a charm provides, each tournament base gains a lucky glow when armed with a Champion Charm.
| |
− |
| |
− | '''Bronze Tournament Base'''
| |
− |
| |
− | The Bronze Tournament Base is a reward for hunters who have shown they are capable of competing in hunting tournaments. When armed alongside a Champion Charm, in addition to the charm's luck, this base glows with an additional +2 luck, for a '''total of 10 luck'''!
| |
− |
| |
− | '''Silver Tournament Base'''
| |
− |
| |
− | The Silver Tournament Base is a reward for hunters who have shown not only their ability to compete in hunting tournaments, but their dedication to winning tournaments. When armed alongside a Champion Charm, in addition to the charm's luck, this base glows with an additional +3 luck, for a '''total of 13 luck'''!
| |
− |
| |
− | '''Golden Tournament Base'''
| |
− |
| |
− | The Golden Tournament Base is a reward that is renowned as a symbol of a seasoned tournament competitor. Only the most dedicated of hunters dare set the goal of obtaining this opulent base. When armed alongside a Champion Charm, in addition to the charm's luck, this base glows with an additional +4 luck, for a '''total of 15 luck'''!
| |
− |
| |
− | Champion Charms can be purchased from the Tournament Hall [[General Store#Tournament Hall General Store|General Store]], where they sell a pack of 12 for 1 Tournament Token. Using Champion Charms with a Tournament Base allow a hunter to reach the highest level of luck possible, so stock up!<br />(Note that this is incorrect, the highest possible luck can only be reached by arming [[Ultimate Luck Charm]]s.)
| |
− |
| |
− | ====Champion Trap Skins====
| |
− |
| |
− | Along with bases, you'll also find new trap skins at the Tournament Hall [[Trapsmith#Tournament Hall Trapsmith|Trapsmith]]. These champion skins are unique to tournaments and are the perfect way to show off your tournament skill!
| |
− |
| |
− | Right now the Tournament Hall has four unique skins in stock, however, the Trapsmith there is eager to work on new ones soon!
| |
− |
| |
− | ====Champion Kits====
| |
− |
| |
− | The General Store at the Tournament Hall is stocked with plenty of special Champion Kits that contain loot and items to help you in various areas. From the dark and gloomy Mousoleum, to the intense battlefield of Furoma, all the way to the dark shadows of the Jungle of Dread!
| |
− |
| |
− | Most Champion Kits only cost a handful of Tournament Tokens and will no doubt come in handy when you need that extra boost of supplies while competing, or want to save time collecting resources in an area.
| |
− |
| |
− | ====Other News====
| |
− |
| |
− | *The [[Vacant Lot]] has now closed, any hunters remaining in the area have been escorted out.
| |

− | ===Great Winter Hunt comes to an end===
| |
− | ''{{date|9|January|2012}}''
| |
− | <blockquote>
| |
− | ====Festive Comet has melted====
| |
− |
| |
− | The Festive Comet and Snow Fortress have both melted, marking the end of the Great Winter Hunt. Toy Parts can no longer be found and hunters will no longer receive Festive Feta in their loyalty chests.
| |
− |
| |
− | The various Festive Shoppes that were at the Festive Comet have remained open in the Vacant Lot that now stands where the comet did. These shoppes will remain open until Thursday, January 12th to allow hunters to spend their collection of Ice Coins.
| |
− |
| |
− | Now is the time to travel to the Vacant Lot and spend your Ice Coins! On Thursday, the Vacant Lot will close and you will no longer be able to spend Ice Coins.
| |
− |
| |
− | ====Tournament Hall construction resumes====
| |
− |
| |
− | With the Snow Fortress now melted and the Mad Elf Mouse no longer in control, construction of the King's Tournament Hall can finally resume! Perhaps most exciting is the rate of progress; the workers estimate the hall will be completed sometime this week!
| |
− |
| |
− | ====A final festive checklist====
| |
− |
| |
− | With the Festive Comet melted and the the Snow Fortress gone, Calamity Carl has put together one final checklist to help hunters ensure they've claimed all their rewards.
| |
− |
| |
− | *'''Visit the shoppes at the Vacant Lot in Gnawnia and spend your Ice Coins'''
| |
− |
| |
− | *'''Claim the two Limited Edition traps: The Nutcracker Nuisance and 2012 Big Boom Trap'''
| |
− |
| |
− | *'''Convert left over Festive Feta into Winter Charms, which have a +4 luck bonus that can be used year-round!'''
| |
− |
| |
− | ====Remember, hunters: You must claim your rewards before Thursday, January 12th.====
| |
− |
| |
− | We hope everyone enjoyed this year's Great Winter Hunt and are excited to have everyone join us for the grand opening of the King's Tournament Hall in Valour!
| |
− |
| |
− | Happy hunting!
| |
− |
| |
− | ====Great Winter Hunt has come to an end!====
| |
− | *If you have Ice Coins, visit the Vacant Lot to spend them before Thursday

− | *Make sure you have claimed both of this year's limited edition traps

− | ===Great Winter Hunt Ends this Monday===
| |
− | ''{{date|5|January|2012}}''
| |
− | <blockquote>
| |
− | ====Festive Comet begins to melt====
| |
− |
| |
− | The [[Festive Comet]] and [[Snow Fortress]] are beginning to slowly melt, meaning it will not be long before both are reduced to large puddles, marking the end of the Great Winter Hunt!
| |
− |
| |
− | At their current rate of decay, the Scientists of [[Digby]] have determined that both the comet and fortress will be gone sometime Monday, January 9th.
| |
− |
| |
− | After the Festive Comet has melted, an area called the [[Vacant Lot]] will be in its place where the Festive Shoppes shall remain open for another few days to allow hunters to spend any and all [[Ice Coin]]s they earned during the event. Make sure you spend your Ice Coins before the Festive Shoppes close!
| |
− |
| |
− | ====A Festive Hunting Checklist====
| |
− |
| |
− | There was certainly much to do this Great Winter Hunt! To aide hunters, [[Calamity Carl]] has put together a quick checklist you can use to make sure you've done all there is to do!

| |
− |
| |
− | Have you completed all there is to do? If so, what better way to show off your festive hunting expertise than competing in one of the remaining festive tournaments? If you have a stockpile of Festive Feta, head over to the tournament listings and start competing!

RONZA HAS ARRIVED!
31 January 2012
After searching the globe for wares, Ronza has finally returned to Gnawnia where she has setup shop next to the castle!
Many of Ronza's items are Limited Edition, meaning that once her airship leaves, those items will never be available again! Keep reading for more information on her wares, then be sure to visit her shop, browse her wares, and purchase any items you like!
Ronza's Stock of Bases and Weapons
Jade Base
This magnificent jade has been mined from far and distant lands. Its polished surface is sure to make dodging your trap more difficult for mice.
Dragon Jade Base
To celebrate the Year of the Dragon, Ronza sought out a Trapsmith capable of carving jade to create a base capable of providing +10 luck while also providing an impressive power bonus!
Purchasing this unique base follows a slightly different process. You hand over in a Jade Base, and a hunter must also possess a Dragon Seal, proving they can handle the enchantment powering this base.
The Dragon Jade Base is not a ware to be missed and is sure to become a new favourite for many hunters across the Kingdom!
Chrome Tacky Glue Trap
Simple and minimalistic, but far from subtle. This modified Tacky Glue Trap features a key ingredient — pure, liquified chrome — to give it a flashy look and a bonus to its luck.
If you're an inexperienced hunter looking for a lucky trap, or just a collector of shiny things, this trap is sure to please!
Warpath Thrasher
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.
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.
Chrome RhinoBot
At long last, the third installment in Ronza's ChromeBot series has arrived!
The Chrome RhinoBot's luxurious look and intricate gold detailing is a great way to hunt with style. The shine of its extraordinarily bright chrome is only surpassed by the shiner it leaves on any mice caught in its path!
Ronza's Unique Charms
In addition to bases and weapons, Ronza has a selection of unique and powerful charms, including a crate of 20 Ultimate Luck Charms that you can acquire by trading in your Ronza Voucher obtained during the Great Winter Hunt.
Of particular interest are mysterious Tarnished Charms that seem to not carry any useful bonuses with them until they have been polished. Try arming a few while hunting, then check your inventory where some new shiny charms have appeared and are waiting for you!
Rockstar Mice Join the Party at the Dragon Festival
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!
REMEMBER: Due to the extreme volume of this cheese, a hunter may not have more than 99 pieces at a time.
Ronza has arrived!
- New limited edition bases and weapons!
- Unique and powerful charms!
- Rockstar Mice have joined the Dragon Festival!
Travel to the Ronza Shoppe
Ronza leaves Friday, February 3rd. Make sure to visit her shoppe!
