At the end of the Catacombs, beyond heavy stone gates, lies a hidden hunting ground. Etched into the gates is a warning: "Beware young soul, should the stone gates close while within this grove, you will find yourself caught between realms.

Description and Requirements

The Forbidden Grove is a location in the Bristle Woods region requiring a minimum rank of Legendary and the Keeper's Candle to enter. Every 3 hours, the gates to the Forbidden Grove will alternate from open to closed. Hunters in the Forbidden Grove when the gates are closed will be transported to the Acolyte Realm, and must wait 3 hours to reenter. Hunters are unable to enter Forbidden Grove unless the gates are open, but are able to travel to other locations at any time.

Shops

There are no shops available in the Forbidden Grove. Shops for the Bristle Woods region can be found in the Catacombs.

Hunting Strategy

Hunters planning to hunt in the Forbidden Grove are advised not to do so until they craft the Arcane Capturing Rod Of Never Yielding Mystery as well as stock an ample supply of Ancient or Runic cheese for the hunt. These are necessary in order to attract and catch the more powerful Forgotten type mice in this location. Without these, hunters should be prepared to fail miserably. Opting to use Radioactive Blue cheese instead of the recommended cheese will provide lackluster results.
