''{{date|11|April|2017}}''
  
A new challenge awaits INSIDE the Fort Rox Meteor!
+
The [[Spring Egg Hunt 2017|Spring Egg Hunt]] has returned! Find hidden eggs throughout the Kingdom!
 
<blockquote>
 
<blockquote>
====Enter the Heart of the Meteor====
+
====Hidden Spring Hunt Eggs====
A new and powerful adversary has been discovered at Fort Rox hiding within the meteor itself! The mouse known simply as the Heart of the Meteor courses with energy and she is presumed to be the source behind the incredible strength and power of the mice that stalk the night.
+
Mice throughout the Kingdom are carrying special [[Eggs|eggs]] containing tasty treats of bonus loot! Travel throughout the Kingdom and hunt mice in search of these hidden eggs, then crack them open to see what's inside!
  
Confronting this mouse will be no small task. In order to enter the meteor itself, you'll need what's known as a Portal Projector. Unfortunately, the mice of Fort Rox have carefully hidden this technology by scattering the Portal Projector parts throughout the Fort Rox area.
+
To get started, you'll need a special egg-finding piece of equipment called an [[Eggscavator (item)|Eggscavator]]. If you do not already own one, you can purchase one from the King for 10,000 gold from the special [[Spring Egg Hunt 2017|Spring Egg Hunt]] heads-up display. Or, you can track down the [[Eggscavator Mouse]] in areas throughout the Kingdom to find one for free.
  
Start your journey at the Fort Rox Cartographer by purchasing a Fort Rox Scroll Case and begin a treasure hunt! Track down mice at Fort Rox in search of treasure clues, then hope the chest you find is one of the few that contain a Portal Projector component. Once you've constructed a projector from a Portal Core and Portal Console, you'll be able to activate it during dawn to enter the meteor and face off against the Heart of the Meteor!
+
====Marshmallow Monterey Stockpiles and Spring Hunt Event Mice====
 +
The changing of the season has attracted several event mice to certain locations. These hunting spots are home to "stockpiles" of [[Marshmallow Monterey]] -- a special cheese that will lure event mice to your trap.
  
====Capturing the Heart of the Meteor====
+
To collect [[Marshmallow Monterey]], visit one of the stockpile locations (listed below) and hunt as you normally would there to collect [[Marshmallow Monterey]] as loot.
Capturing the Heart of the Meteor requires a very special and rare type of bait called Sunrise Cheese. This new cheese can be purchased from the Fort Rox Cheese Shoppe for 25 Dawn Dust per piece. It can also be purchased and sold on the Marketplace.
 
  
The Heart of the Meteor is brimming with enough energy to empower the mice attacking Fort Rox! Capturing this mouse will be nearly impossible unless until she has been weakened though multiple encounters. Each hunt you take within the meteor where you attract the Heart of the Meteor will weaken her, making her easier to catch each time your trap fails to capture her.
+
'''Marshmallow Monterey Stockpile Locations:'''
 +
* [[Town of Gnawnia]] ([[Recruit]])
 +
* [[Great Gnarled Tree]] ([[Master]])
 +
* [[Town of Digby]] ([[Master]])
 +
* [[Dojo]] ([[Grandmaster]])
 +
* [[Catacombs]] ([[Legendary]])
 +
* [[S.S. Huntington III|S.S. Huntington]] ([[Legendary]])
 +
* [[Cape Clawed]] ([[Legendary]])
 +
* [[King's Gauntlet]] ([[Hero]])
 +
* [[Claw Shot City]] ([[Lord|Lord/Lady]])
 +
* [[Muridae Market]] ([[Baron|Baron/Baroness]])
 +
* [[Gnawnia Rift]] ([[Count|Count/Countess]])
 +
* [[Fungal Cavern]] ([[Duke|Duke/Duchess]])
  
After nine encounters with the Heart of the Meteor without leaving the meteor, her strength will be reduced to that of the puniest of mice in the Meadow and she will be practically impossible NOT to catch! If you're the type of hunter that likes to play it safe and be well prepared, bring a full 10 pieces of Sunrise Cheese!
+
Once you've obtained some [[Marshmallow Monterey]], you can use it in any stockpile location to attract [[Spring Egg Hunt#Spring Egg Hunt Event Mice|Spring Egg Hunt event mice]]! These mice drop 10 especially valuable [[Spring Eggs|eggs]] that each hunter can loot only once. Event mice also drop special charms to boost the power of your [[Eggscavator (item)|Eggscavator]]!
  
*'''Sunrise Cheese'''
+
====Eggscavator Charge Charms and Eggstra Charms====
:This bait is the only cheese that will attract the Heart of the Meteor. It can be purchased from the Fort Rox Cheese Shoppe as well as the Marketplace.
+
You can obtain special charms to boost your [[Eggscavator (item)|Eggscavator]] by exchanging [[Marshmallow Monterey]] at the '''Charm Shoppe''' in any '''Marshmallow Monterey Stockpile''' location, or, you can hunt for event mice in those locations to obtain charms as loot drops. Charging up your [[Eggscavator (item)|Eggscavator]] will allow you to find special [[Charge Eggs]] and using [[Eggstra Charm]]s will double your egg drops!
  
*'''Heart of the Meteor'''
+
*[[Eggscavator Charge Charm]]
:Each time you encounter this mouse, her strength will decrease. After nine encounters, she will be entirely drained of strength. Retreating from the portal at this point will allow this mouse to regain her strength, so make sure you're well prepared! When caught, the power of the portal will fade and you will find yourself transported back into the Dawn, as if no time had passed at all.
+
:Capturing a mouse with this charm armed will add a charge to your [[Eggscavator (item)|Eggscavator]]. You'll lose a charge each hunt taken without a charge charm armed. Depending on the charge level of your [[Eggscavator (item)|Eggscavator]], you'll find [[Low Charge Egg|Low]], [[Medium Charge Egg|Medium]], and [[High Charge Egg]]s that contain Spring Hunt loot!
  
====Purchasing a Fort Rox Portal Projector====
+
*[[Eggstra Charm]]
A Portal Projector is made from three components: a Portal Core, a Portal Console, and plenty of Dawn Dust to fuse the two together. You can find the rare core and console by completing Fort Rox Treasure Maps. Dusting the map will double the chance of finding a projector component!
+
:The [[Eggstra Charm]] will double the quantity of any eggs found while hunting! The charm is only consumed when you find an egg.
  
*'''Fort Rox Portal Core'''
+
*[[Eggstra Charge Charm]]
:This pulsating core is tuned to Fort Rox and provides energy for the Fort Rox Portal Console.
+
:This special charm combines the abilities of the [[Eggscavator Charge Charm]] and the [[Eggstra Charm]] both charging your [[Eggscavator (item)|Eggscavator]] and doubling the quantity of any eggs found! This charm is consumed upon each successful capture of a mouse.
*'''Fort Rox Portal Console'''
 
:This socketed console is tuned to Fort Rox and is awaiting a portal core to commence portal projecting.
 
*'''Fort Rox Portal Projector'''
 
:The completed Fort Rox Portal Projector can purchased from the Fort Rox General Store for the cost of one Fort Rox Portal Core, one Fort Rox Portal Console, and 100 Dawn Dust. The resulting projector can then be used during Dawn at Fort Rox to enter the meteor itself! Keep an eye on the heads-up display after entering Dawn to use your projector!
 
:'''Be warned:''' The intense power surge of projecting a portal will destroy your projector! Each Portal Projector can only be used once, meaning you'll need to purchase a new one each time you wish to enter the Heart of the Meteor. Ensure that you bring enough Sunrise Cheese with you to make the best of your time there!
 
*'''Marketplace'''
 
:Both the Fort Rox Portal Core and Fort Rox Portal Console can be purchased and sold on the Marketplace. Sell extra components you don't need, or purchase the half that you seek! Or, if you're not intrepid enough to seek out Portal Components, purchase both halves from treasure hunters that are not interested in hunting the Heart of the Meteor. Win-win!

====New Eggs for 2017 Spring Egg Hunt====

The 9th Birthday Cupcake Extravaganza has come to an end. In the event's place is the Vacant Lot where hunters can ship any remaining cupcakes they have. Hunters may also now cancel cupcake orders, so if you're missing something try canceling the order to choose a different one.
 
 
Any remaining cupcakes after the Vacant Lot closes will turn stale, so make sure to ship as many as you can! As a final reminder, make sure you've claimed your adventure reward!

Spring Egg Hunt

11 April 2017

The Spring Egg Hunt has returned! Find hidden eggs throughout the Kingdom!

Hidden Spring Hunt Eggs

Mice throughout the Kingdom are carrying special eggs containing tasty treats of bonus loot! Travel throughout the Kingdom and hunt mice in search of these hidden eggs, then crack them open to see what's inside!

To get started, you'll need a special egg-finding piece of equipment called an Eggscavator. If you do not already own one, you can purchase one from the King for 10,000 gold from the special Spring Egg Hunt heads-up display. Or, you can track down the Eggscavator Mouse in areas throughout the Kingdom to find one for free.

Marshmallow Monterey Stockpiles and Spring Hunt Event Mice

The changing of the season has attracted several event mice to certain locations. These hunting spots are home to "stockpiles" of Marshmallow Monterey -- a special cheese that will lure event mice to your trap.

To collect Marshmallow Monterey, visit one of the stockpile locations (listed below) and hunt as you normally would there to collect Marshmallow Monterey as loot.

Marshmallow Monterey Stockpile Locations:

Once you've obtained some Marshmallow Monterey, you can use it in any stockpile location to attract Spring Egg Hunt event mice! These mice drop 10 especially valuable eggs that each hunter can loot only once. Event mice also drop special charms to boost the power of your Eggscavator!

Eggscavator Charge Charms and Eggstra Charms

You can obtain special charms to boost your Eggscavator by exchanging Marshmallow Monterey at the Charm Shoppe in any Marshmallow Monterey Stockpile location, or, you can hunt for event mice in those locations to obtain charms as loot drops. Charging up your Eggscavator will allow you to find special Charge Eggs and using Eggstra Charms will double your egg drops!

Capturing a mouse with this charm armed will add a charge to your Eggscavator. You'll lose a charge each hunt taken without a charge charm armed. Depending on the charge level of your Eggscavator, you'll find Low, Medium, and High Charge Eggs that contain Spring Hunt loot!
The Eggstra Charm will double the quantity of any eggs found while hunting! The charm is only consumed when you find an egg.
This special charm combines the abilities of the Eggscavator Charge Charm and the Eggstra Charm both charging your Eggscavator and doubling the quantity of any eggs found! This charm is consumed upon each successful capture of a mouse.
