The Festive Comet brought quite a bit more snow than expected this year! Strangely, all of that snow has formed quite a few different hills and slopes, perfect for tobogganing!

Come grab a toboggan and join the races to earn unique holiday rewards and earn the coveted Toboggan Championship Trophy.

Overview

The Extreme Toboggan Challenge is a location in the Gnawnia region requiring a minimum rank of Recruit to enter.
Mice in the Extreme Toboggan Challenge will not steal points, gold, or multiple pieces of cheese if not captured.
It is recommended that Hunters use the Great Winter Hunt Cheeses to progress through the area. Arctic Asiago Cheese is preferred over other cheeses for it's bonus effect while on a Toboggan Course.

Extreme Toboggan Challenge Mice

The mice found in the Bazaar are all members of the Indigenous Mice group and are weak to all Power Types. The only exception to this is the Master Burglar Mouse which has no weakness to Rift weapons.

Mice -- Blue Square Courses

These mice are found on the Blue Square courses.
Hunters will need to complete 1 Toboggan Upgrade to access these courses.
Completing any of these courses by beating the Sporty Ski Instructor Mouse rival will result in a catch of that mouse as a bonus hunt which does not consume cheese or charms..
The Stuck Snowball Mouse can be found on these courses and the encounter is also treated as a bonus hunt which does not consume cheese or charms..
Recommended Power Types for the Burroughs course: Shadow, Arcane
Recommended Power Type for the Furoma course: Tactical
Recommended Power Types for the Bristle Woods course: Arcane, Forgotten

Cheese Preference and Loot

The mice on these courses do not have a preference for any particular cheese. However, Great Winter Hunt Cheeses will repel the Free Skiing Mouse.
Arctic Asiago Cheese provides a +1 speed bonus to the Hunter's toboggan.

Hunting Strategy

Mice in the Bazaar are weak to all Power Types, except the Master Burglar Mouse, which has no weakness to Rift weapons.

Standard Cheese will attract all mice accept the Black Widow, Master Burglar, and Nibbler mice. The Black Widow and Nibbler mice are attracted only to SUPER|brie+. The Master Burglar Mouse is attracted to SUPER|brie+ and Gilded Cheese.

The Burglar Mouse will drop the Back Cover of Plankrun's Journal, but the drop rate is very low.

Library Assignments

Tournaments

Treasure Maps

Hunting tips by Larry

The Bazaar is a noisy place full of merchants selling all sorts of whacky wares!

If you've come from the Furoma region, be sure to visit the Cartographer here. Cartographers are experts in repairing damaged maps which will in turn open new hunting grounds!

The Bazaar General Store is stocked with some of the strangest items found from around the world. You may just find these items useful if you plan on heading back to Furoma.

Beware of the Burglar mice. They run rampant here at the Bazaar and never hesitate to steal your gold!
