Let's put dev updates and everything else here (up to one month, archive anything older). We'll include the newest update into the main page, and we can exclude the others using the <noinclude> tag.

For older updates, visit the Archive.

Notes for Editors

  • Please always put the newest news post first (if there are two from the same day, use the timestamp).
  • Keep dates in DD Month YYYY format; this is an internationally recognized date format.
  • The MHP Template is god-like.
  • Use Template:Date so that if we ever change the date format, it'll auto-update.

Big Jaq's Spice Shack

23 July 2019

Queso Kegs, Blooming Spice Plants, and Leaf Exchange!

Jaqueline the Spice Merchant Visits Queso Canyon

The traveling spice merchant Jaqueline, or "Big Jaq" as she's known to friends, has setup her Spice Shack in the Queso Canyon. Visit any General Store in the areas of the Queso Canyon region to visit her popup shop where all sorts of spicy deals are available.

While Big Jaq is visiting, there are also some new unique loot drops to find! Boost your Bland Queso collection by recovering Kegs of Bland Queso from mice throughout the Queso Canyon region.

Kegs of Bland Queso

Big Jaq's Bland Queso Kegs have been stolen! Catch mice in Queso Canyon for a chance to get a cheesy reward. The Kegs come in three sizes and you can use Wild Tonic to shake loose double the kegs when mice drop them!


  • Small
250 Bland Queso
  • Medium
500 Bland Queso
  • Large
1,500 Bland Queso
  • 150 Wild Tonic
DOUBLE keg drops with Wild Tonic!

These Kegs of Queso can be collected anywhere in the region, including Queso Geyser! The kegs are fortunately heat-resistant and buoyant enough to safetly float in the liquid hot queso at the geyser. As a result, the kegs will appear as loot drops directly from mice and not in nests.

Spice Leaf Exchange

Big Jaq offers a Spice Leaf Exchange allowing you to trade Nachore or various types of Spice Leaves along with 1 Magic Essence for a higher tier of spice.


  • Mild Spice Leaf
10 Nachore + 1 Magic Essence
  • Medium Spice Leaf'
2 Mild Leaves + 1 Magic Essence
  • Hot Spice Leaf
3 Medium Leaves + 1 Magic Essence
  • Flamin' Spice Leaf
5 Hot Leaves + 1 Magic Essence
  • 500 Magic Essence
Exchange leaves using Magic Essence!
