New Eggs and New Rewards!
 
<blockquote>
 
  
==== Spring Forward into another Egg-Packed Season! ====
+
On May 17, store-bought blueprints will vanish from inventories with a refund, and unique trap materials will no longer be sold in General Stores.
One of the most time-honoured events has returned to the Kingdom of Gnawnia! This year the Spring Egg Hunt features some brand new eggs, new rewards, and the return of Lady Laura!
 
  
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 claim one for free from the Spring Egg Hunt heads-up display. So grab yourself an Eggscavator and get ready for an eggsceptional season!
+
==== Store-bought Blueprints are Vanishing... ====
 +
With the recent Shops Infrastructure Overhaul, Trapsmiths have become adept at constructing their new supply of traps which once needed to be hand-crafted by MouseHunters!
  
==== Lady Laura is Back! ====
+
As a result of this mass production of traps, the associated blueprints will soon vanish from hunters’ inventories as the knowledge is passed on to the Trapsmiths. Hunters looking to acquire one of these previously-crafted traps moving forward should seek out the appropriate Trapsmith to construct it!
A familiar face has returned to the Kingdom of Gnawnia to celebrate the coming of spring: Lady Laura, the Chocolatier! But she is no ordinary Chocolatier; Lady Laura is a master of the lost art of CocoAlchemy which gives her the ability to wield the mighty power of the purest chocolate known to science: '''Chocolatonium'''!
 
  
Unfortunately, a certain group of greedy, chocolate-obsessed mice have ambushed her caravan and once again stole all of her Chocolatonium! Collect the stolen Chocolatonium from the spring event mice that are roaming all over the Kingdom. These mice are so plentiful right now that you won't even need cheese to attract them!

'''Return the Chocolatonium to Lady Laura to unlock the shelves in her Chocolate Shop''' and she'll show her gratitude by presenting you with special, one-time rewards for unlocking each shelf. Once a shelf has been unlocked, you'll be able to purchase the items on that shelf with Chocolatonium anytime during the event.
 
 
 
==== Spring Mice and Spring Eggs ====
 
The Chocolatonium has driven the spring event mice into such a frenzy that you can find these mice '''EVERYWHERE''' in the Kingdom! They're so abundant that you do not need special cheese to attract them. In fact, you don't need any cheese at all!
 
 
 
The spring event mice '''all come exclusively from bonus hunts''' meaning they'll occasionally wander into your trap without consuming cheese or charms and without affecting any area gameplay progression. The spring mice will always drop Chocolatonium when caught.
 
 
 
These eggs in early game areas have received a small boost to their contents! Cracking them open will provide more of the items they contained previously as well as some new items!
 
 
 
==== New Eggs ====
 
This year there are '''7''' brand new eggs to find! You will need your trusty Eggscavator to find them so make sure you pick one up before you head out!

With the discovery of the Sky Palace, the eggs corresponding to island modifiers now appear more frequently when more than one of that modifier is present on an island.
 
 
 
==== New Reward ====
 
Unlocking shelves in Lady Laura's Chocolate Shop will earn you a special new reward as well as some returning items from previous years!

==== The Eggsweeper Mini-Game Has Returned! ====
 
'''HOW TO PLAY''': There are 10 eggs hidden somewhere in the field and you need to reveal them all to earn rank-specific rewards! Each tile you reveal costs 1 Eggsweeper Shovel. When you reveal a tile, you will either be shown a number or an egg. The number shown is a clue representing how many eggs are hidden in nearby tiles (diagonals included). If you reveal an egg, you get a special Eggsweeper Egg added to your inventory based on your hunter title.

Tier 1: Novice to Journeyman/Journeywoman
 
 
 
Tier 2: Master to Lord/Lady
 
 
 
Tier 3: Baron/Baronness and Count/Countess
 
 
 
Tier 4: Duke/Duchess and up
 
 
 
These eggs will contain loot appropriate for areas in the Kingdom tied to hunter ranks. You can find a few Eggsweeper Shovels in each of this year's Spring Eggs including a whopping 60 inside the Golden Egg! You can also find them in your Daily Loyalty Chest, Lady Laura will gift you some for unlocking each of the shelves in her Chocolate Shop, or you can purchase them from the Premium Shop.
 
 
 
For even more eggstraordinary rewards, dust your Eggsweeper field with Magical Fertilizer before you start the mini-game! All the eggs found in a fertilized field will eggsplode with even more amazing loot!

Chocolatonium has a highly unstable atomic structure and therefore only has a very short half-life. Any pure Chocolatonium exposed to the open air will undergo radioactive decay after only four weeks and even when it's properly contained within a hunter's inventory, it will only last an additional two weeks.

Blueprints Sunset Notification

4 May 2022

Some blueprints and crafting materials are being phased out!

On May 17, store-bought blueprints will vanish from inventories with a refund, and unique trap materials will no longer be sold in General Stores.

Store-bought Blueprints are Vanishing...

With the recent Shops Infrastructure Overhaul, Trapsmiths have become adept at constructing their new supply of traps which once needed to be hand-crafted by MouseHunters!

As a result of this mass production of traps, the associated blueprints will soon vanish from hunters’ inventories as the knowledge is passed on to the Trapsmiths. Hunters looking to acquire one of these previously-crafted traps moving forward should seek out the appropriate Trapsmith to construct it!

On Tuesday, May 17th @ 3:00 PM (UTC), the following blueprints will be removed from hunters’ inventories and replaced with a full refund (if they were not already smashed for a refund by the hunter):
  • Ancient Box Trap Blueprints
  • Ancient Spear Gun Blueprints
  • Ancient Torn Blueprint Piece
  • Blackstone Pass Trap Blueprints
  • Clockwork Portal Blueprints
  • Dehydration Base Blueprints
  • Endless Labyrinth Blueprints
  • Event Horizon Blueprints
  • Grand Arcanum Blueprints
  • Hearthstone Base Blueprints
  • Magnet Base Blueprints
  • Minotaur Base Blueprints
  • Mysterious Blueprints
  • Oasis Water Node Blueprints
  • Obelisk of Incineration Blueprints
  • Obvious Ambush Trap Blueprints
  • Phantasmic Oasis Blueprints
  • Refined Pollutinum Base Blueprints
  • Remote Detonator Base Blueprints
  • RhinoBot Blueprints
  • Rift Base Blueprints
  • Sandstorm MonstroBot Blueprints
  • Soiled Base Blueprints
  • Spellbook Base Blueprints
  • Sphynx Wrath Blueprints
  • Spiked Base Blueprints
  • Temporal Turbine Blueprints
  • Thorned Venus Mouse Trap Blueprints
  • Zugzwang’s First Move Blueprints

...and Some Unique Crafting Materials Too!

With Trapsmiths streamlining the trap making process, many materials sold in General Stores have become obsolete. These items will be removed from General Store shelves on May 17th. Any such materials left in hunters’ inventories will be tagged as Vintage. Those who don’t want to keep these items as keepsakes may smash them with their Hunter’s Hammer for a full refund at any time.

As of May 17th, the following crafting materials will no longer be sold in General Stores. However, they will NOT disappear from hunters’ inventories. They will be able to be smashed for a full gold refund as desired using the Hunter’s Hammer:
  • Arcane Crystal
  • Bead of Slumber
  • Droid Parts
  • Metamorphic Rock
  • Phantasmic Essence
  • Rice Paper
  • Umbral Capacitor
