| Number of Event Mice: | 16 |
| Starting Date: | 31 January 2022 |
| Ending Date: | 15 February 2022 |
Overview
During the Lunar New Year 2022 event, Hunters should head to designated stockpile locations throughout the Kingdom first to claim a Tiger Lunar Lantern from the HUD.
Then, Hunters can hunt normally in the same stockpile locations to obtain Dumpling Cheese as loot from regular mice. Dumpling Cheese (or Nian Gao'da Cheese) can then be armed to attract Lunar New Year Mice that drop Lunar Lantern Candles (or Red Lunar Lantern Candles if Nian Gao'da Cheese is armed).
Finally, Hunters can light Lunar Lantern Candles and Red Lunar Lantern Candles throughout the Kingdom to obtain various bonuses and gain extra rewards depending on the number of candles lit.

Hunt with the cheeses that attract the mice normally found in these locations to obtain Dumpling Cheese as loot.
Hunting with either Dumpling Cheese or Nian Gao'da Cheese in Stockpile locations is the only way to attract the Lunar New Year Mice and may improve the attraction rate of some of the rarer mice in these locations.

Lunar Lantern and Candles
Hunters must claim the Tiger Lunar Lantern from the event HUD when hunting in one of the Stockpile locations. The Tiger Lunar Lantern is powered by either Lunar Lantern Candles which are dropped by hunting with Dumpling Cheese in any of the 12 stockpile locations or Red Lunar Lantern Candles which are dropped from the Lunar Red Candle Maker Mouse by hunting with Nian Gao'da Cheese in any of the 12 stockpile locations.
Luck Boost
Activating the Tiger Lunar Lantern will consume 1 candle with each hunt.
Each Lunar Lantern Candle burned will raise the lantern height by 1 foot, and each Red Lunar Lantern Candle burned will raise the height by 2 feet. The maximum height is 500 feet.
Every 10 feet of the lantern height will add +1 luck to the Luck Boost effect of the lantern while it is active. The maximum possible luck boost is +50.
Loot Doubling and Tripling
Activating the Tiger Lunar Lantern will provide a loot multiplying effect throughout the Kingdom. The loot is doubled when Lunar Lantern Candle is in use and is tripled when Red Lunar Lantern Candle is burned.
Almost any item that appears as mouse loot in the journal entry will be multiplied. Any items that show up in a separate journal entry will not be multiplied.
The following items will not be multiplied:
- Dumpling Cheese and Nian Gao'da Cheese
- Lunar Lantern Candles and Red Lunar Lantern Candles

- Treasure Map Clues and Scavenger Hunt Hints
- Items added by weapons, bases, charms, or auras that show up in a separate journal entry
