The Draconic Depths has Surfaced!

13 August 2024

Viceroy hunters and above can now embark on a new adventure.
A new area has released in the Folklore Forest!

The Draconic Depths has Surfaced!

Thanks to Ronza's tireless efforts, the Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it is unfolding beneath our very feet.

Instead of invading a world of fantasy yet again, this time the Mythweaver plans to invade the world with fantasy!

So after losing his tenure at the School of Sorcery, this malevolent mastermind took it upon himself to dig up the very essence of fear and destruction in the minds and hearts of Gnawnians: dragons!

The King is now calling upon all MouseHunters ranked Viceroy and above to travel to the new Draconic Depths and stop this invasion before it takes flight.


Prepare for your Descent

The Tale of the First Dragons map piece can be purchased from the School of Sorcery Cartographer for 1,000,000 Gold, 1,000 Sorcerer's Sapphires, and requires completion of the Become a Master Sorcerer adventure for any hunters who have yet to obtain it.

Seismic effects on Baitkeep Charms

The intense seismic activity within the Draconic Depths has an effect on Baitkeep Charms when they're used within the Draconic Depths.

In the Draconic Depths, Baitkeep Charms have a 50% chance of activating and saving your bait when used. However, whenever they don't activate, the charm will not be consumed, keeping it intact for the next hunt.

A gift from Larry to prepare you for the challenge ahead!

Fire Dragons arrive; Chrome Deals Depart!

6 August 2024

Fire Dragons are beginning their attack!
Ronza's promotional bundles expire tomorrow

Fiery Dragon Attack!

Crematio Scorchworth and a horde of Geyser Dragons are descending upon Ronza's ship in a last ditch effort to stop her from supplying MouseHunters! To ensure every hunter can help repel this attack, Ronza has designed a brand new Draconic trap using all of the Gold that hunters have spent at her shoppe this year. This mid-level Draconic trap can give a boost to less experienced Hunters who have yet to explore the Tribal Isles and beyond.

Explore the Draconic Depths

Ronza has no doubt that hunters will repel this latest wave of dragons and secure a route to the Draconic Depths. Hunters who have earned the Tale of the First Dragons and are ranked Viceroy or above will be able to explore this new hunting location on Tuesday, August 13.

Within the Draconic Depths, hunters will forge navigational Dowsing Rods in Fire, Ice, and Poison Crucibles then use them to descend into dark and dangerous caverns in search of loot and glory! The miraculous Replicart™ can be used to magically replicate your loot drops or burn them away into Dragon Embers to empower future hunts.

Lucrative commodities such as Dragonhide Slivers, Dragon's Breath Opals, and the rare Mythical Dragon Heart await discovery! Unlock four new codices, a lavish new journal theme, a powerful new base, and two new Draconic traps!
