Each candle you burn will raise your lantern into the sky earning you bonus luck and other rewards! Burning a regular Lunar Lantern Candle will raise your lantern by 1 foot while burning a Red Lunar Lantern Candle will raise your lantern by 2 feet. Every ten feet your lantern ascends will earn you +1 Trap Luck which is active while your lantern is lit until the end of the event. Additionally, at some heights you'll also earn unique item rewards!

You are no longer able to light your lunar lantern candles or make any more progress on the reward track.
  
Your lantern can reach a maximum height of 500 feet which provides an impressive +50 Luck while burning any type of candle!

Head to the Camp section to view your lantern track progress and claim rewards as you reach their height requirements. Make sure to check the App Store or Google Play to ensure your mobile app is up to date to celebrate all the Year of the Rat has to offer!
