=== [{{MHdomain}}/newspost.php?news_post_id=593 RELIC HUNTER SEASON 9 HAS BEGUN!] ===
 +
''{{date|9|November|2021}}''
 +
 +
'''Searchable Community Maps, Improved Mobile UI, New Rewards!'''<br>
 +
The new season of Relic Hunter brings exciting updates and unique rewards.
 +
 +
<blockquote>
 +
 +
==== Relic Hunter Season 9 has begun! ====
 +
The new Relic Hunter season brings with it exciting updates to Community Maps, important mobile interface improvements, changes to Elite and Slayer maps, and unique seasonal rewards.
 +
 +
So gather your relics, assemble your treasure hunting team, and prepare for adventure!
 +
 +
==== Community Map Listing Updates ====
 +
You can now search, filter, and sort treasure maps by their name, number of mice caught, and number of hunters on the map on both the browser and mobile app.
 +
 +
There's also a handy menu link to go straight to the publicly listed Community Maps section.
 +
 +
Now it's even easier to find and join community maps of every shape and size!
 +
 +
==== Interface Improvements ====
 +
===== Mobile Improvements =====
 +
We've made even more mobile interface improvements from last year that will make mapping on mobile even smoother, more feature-rich, and more consistent with the browser experience.
 +
 +
These new additions to mobile are too numerous to list but here are some key changes:
 +
*Navigation tabs have been added to make treasure mapping more seamless
 +
*Caught mice are now grouped by the hunter who caught them
 +
*Inviting friends to your map has helpful filtering and sorting improvements
 +
 +
<div style="text-align: center; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.083em; margin: 1em 0">
 +
For an exhaustive list of all the changes to the mobile map UI, check out today's patch notes!
 +
</div>
 +
 +
==== Chrome Slayer Treasure Maps ====
 +
Introducing for the first time: Elite Chrome Slayer Treasure Chests!
 +
 +
These prestigious treasure chests are awarded upon completion of an Elite Chrome Slayer Treasure Map, a challenge for only the bravest of hunters Archduke/Archduchess and above!
 +
 +
===== Slayer and Chrome Auras =====
 +
When opening any Chrome Slayer Treasure Chest, both Chrome and Slayer auras are rewarded!
 +
 +
===== Chrome Slayer Scroll Case Exchange =====
 +
Exchange your regular Slayer Scroll Case along with 2 Rare Map Dust and 100 Ancient Relics for a Chrome Slayer Scroll Case at the King's Cart.
 +
 +
Chrome Slayer Scroll Cases always open to reveal a map with difficulty that matches your hunter title.
 +
 +
==== Elite and Slayer Map Updates ====
 +
Existing Elite treasure maps have been rebalanced to remove some unfair mice, add mice that were missing, and improve treasure chest rewards.
 +
 +
In addition to this, all Elite treasure chests (Slayer, Chrome Slayer, and Relic Hunter) now reward an additional item from a special exclusive reward list. Any Elite treasure map completed from this point forward will reward you with the improved treasure chest.
 +
 +

−
<pre style="font-style: italic; display: inline-block; margin-left: 1em">
 
−
Double, double toil and trouble,
 
−
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.
 
−
Pumpkin bits foul and rotten,
 
−
From the Greenwood, ill-begotten.
 
−
Mushy marrow and pepper of ghost,
 
−
In the pot they all shall roast.
 
−
AvocAAAAHdos scream and shake,
 
−
Remove the pit then boil and bake.
 
−
With popping bubbles and rising steam,
 
−
Brew a cheese with howling scream.
 
−
For in the woods dark and deep,
 
−
Lies a witch who longs to reap.
 
−
Beware her voice and flashy attire,
 
−
Beware her magic and cauldron's fire.
 
−
Catch the witch and make her mute,
 
−
Take her precious Mousedrake Root.
 
−
And with this root, thou shalt queue,
 
−
The most Evil Extract that one could brew.
 
−
In the shoppe you'll have a notion,
 
−
To turn this extract into potion.
 
−
So take this evil and use it for good,
 
−
And with it conquer the Gloomy Greenwood!

==== 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!
 
−
 
−
'''Evil Extract''' can be traded in at the Apothecary (General Store) for a wide selection of existing potions as well as some brand new and extremely powerful ones that were created by Baba Gaga herself! Open up the "Shops" tab in Baba Gaga's Recipe Book to get a detailed look at all the available potions and what each of them can do.

'''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!

''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. With the treasure hunting efforts in full swing the exploration supplies assembled by the King are beginning to wane. Today is the final day to pick up the special Aerial Treasure Master Bundle from the Premium Shoppe before it's gone.

RELIC HUNTER SEASON 9 HAS BEGUN!

9 November 2021

Searchable Community Maps, Improved Mobile UI, New Rewards!
The new season of Relic Hunter brings exciting updates and unique rewards.

Relic Hunter Season 9 has begun!

The new Relic Hunter season brings with it exciting updates to Community Maps, important mobile interface improvements, changes to Elite and Slayer maps, and unique seasonal rewards.

So gather your relics, assemble your treasure hunting team, and prepare for adventure!

Community Map Listing Updates

You can now search, filter, and sort treasure maps by their name, number of mice caught, and number of hunters on the map on both the browser and mobile app.

There's also a handy menu link to go straight to the publicly listed Community Maps section.

Now it's even easier to find and join community maps of every shape and size!

Interface Improvements

Mobile Improvements

We've made even more mobile interface improvements from last year that will make mapping on mobile even smoother, more feature-rich, and more consistent with the browser experience.

These new additions to mobile are too numerous to list but here are some key changes:

  • Navigation tabs have been added to make treasure mapping more seamless
  • Caught mice are now grouped by the hunter who caught them
  • Inviting friends to your map has helpful filtering and sorting improvements

For an exhaustive list of all the changes to the mobile map UI, check out today's patch notes!

Chrome Slayer Treasure Maps

Introducing for the first time: Elite Chrome Slayer Treasure Chests!

These prestigious treasure chests are awarded upon completion of an Elite Chrome Slayer Treasure Map, a challenge for only the bravest of hunters Archduke/Archduchess and above!

Slayer and Chrome Auras

When opening any Chrome Slayer Treasure Chest, both Chrome and Slayer auras are rewarded!

Chrome Slayer Scroll Case Exchange

Exchange your regular Slayer Scroll Case along with 2 Rare Map Dust and 100 Ancient Relics for a Chrome Slayer Scroll Case at the King's Cart.

Chrome Slayer Scroll Cases always open to reveal a map with difficulty that matches your hunter title.

Elite and Slayer Map Updates

Existing Elite treasure maps have been rebalanced to remove some unfair mice, add mice that were missing, and improve treasure chest rewards.

In addition to this, all Elite treasure chests (Slayer, Chrome Slayer, and Relic Hunter) now reward an additional item from a special exclusive reward list. Any Elite treasure map completed from this point forward will reward you with the improved treasure chest.

You can see a complete list of all the changes related to Elite and Slayer maps in today's patch notes!

Seasonal Rewards

We've created some new and unique Limited Edition bases this year as Seasonal Rewards for the most dedicated map hunters!

(NEW) Gemology Base

This base will help to speed up your progress in the Fungal Cavern by removing some meddlesome mice and improving the encounter rates for mice that drop more Minerals, Gemstones, and Diamonds.

Halloween Final Countdown

The magical hut in the Gloomy Greenwood is itching to leave, taking its cauldrons with it. It has places to be! Finish brewing your remaining ingredients with Reactive Reagent or cash them out in the shops and spend all of your Evil Extract before the hut leaves completely on...

Tuesday, November 16, 2021!

All Evil Extract and ingredients will be removed from your inventory on this date so spend them while you can!

-- Giorgio Sintichakis

THE MAGIC OF THE CAULDRONS IS COMING TO AN END

2 November 2021

Halloween is ending soon in the Kingdom of Gnawnia!
Brew as much Evil Extract as you can before the Greenwood is gone!

The Magic of the Cauldrons is Coming to an End

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.

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

Brew as much Evil Extract as you can during this week!

As of November 2, 2021, all the mice in the Gloomy Greenwood will no longer drop any ingredients including Mousedrake Root.

Any ingredients that you've already collected can still be brewed and everything else will remain unchanged.

November 9 to November 16, 2021

Spend all your Evil Extract before this week is over!

As of November 9, 2021, the cauldrons will no longer brew while you hunt!

You can still use Reactive Reagent to finish brewing any ingredients you have left but the cauldrons will not work without it.

You can also choose to cancel your current brews and queues in order to get your ingredients back which you can spend in the Charm Shoppe or the Apothecary (General Store).

Reactive Reagent
Available in the Apothecary (General Store)
Cost: 3 Mousedrake Root

The following items will still be available for purchase from the Premium Shop during this week:

15 Reactive Reagent
Finish a brew!

100 Reactive Reagent
Finish many brews!

25 Spooky Shuffle Tickets
Match for rewards!

Spooky Shuffle Dust
Unique rewards!

After November 16, 2021

Make sure to brew it all and spend it all before November 16!

On November 16, 2021, the Gloomy Greenwood location will disappear! Any hunters still in the Greenwood will be escorted to the Town of Gnawnia by the King's Guards.

At this point, the following ingredients will be removed from your inventory:

  • Pungent Pumpkin
  • Marshmarrow
  • Ghost Pepper
  • AvocAAAAHdo
  • Mousedrake Root
  • Evil Extract

Any potions you've purchased and any event cheese that you have already brewed will not be removed.

Relic Hunter Season 9 Begins November 9!

The new Relic Hunter season is starting on Tuesday, November 9, 2021 and with it comes many exciting changes, improvements, as well as two brand new Limited Edition bases to replace last year's seasonal rewards!

Changes are coming to the Mountain

Rumour has it changes are coming to the Mountain and it’s Charm Shoppe. Hunters should be aware that the refund amount of Power Charms and Prospector Charms will be dropping in an upcoming update so if you are planning to refund them, we recommend doing so before November 16 to get the most out of them while you still can.
