'''Halloween is ending soon in the Kingdom of Gnawnia!'''
+
'''And she brought back the Shack!'''
  
Brew as much Evil Extract as you can before the Greenwood is gone!
+
'''Big, Back, with some new things in the Shack!'''<br/>
 +
Big Jaq is back in the Queso Canyon with all sorts of spicy deals!
  
 
<blockquote>
 
<blockquote>
==== The Magic of the Cauldrons is Beginning to Fade... ====
 
The brave hunters of Gnawnia have been successful in warding off Baba Gaga and her evil minions! They've managed to rid the Gloomy Greenwood of all its foul ingredients! Now that the wicked witch is on the run, the magic that keeps her cauldrons brewing is starting to fade! Her hut along with her minions will soon depart the Gloomy Greenwood.
 
  
There are '''two stages to the shutdown''' of the Boiling Cauldron event to help hunters to maximize their event rewards. The details of the two stages are outlined below.
+
==== Jaqueline the Spice Merchant Returns to Queso Canyon ====
 +
The travelling spice merchant Jaqueline, or "Big Jaq" as she's known to friends, has once again setup her Spice Shack in the Queso Canyon! Visit any General Store in the areas of the Queso Canyon region to browse her popup shop where all sorts of spicy deals are available.
  
==== November 2 to November 9, 2022 ====
+
While Big Jaq is visiting, there are also some unique loot drops to find! Boost your Bland Queso collection by recovering Kegs of Bland Queso from mice throughout the Queso Canyon region.

<div style="font-size: 115%>'''Brew as much Evil Extract as you can during this week!'''</div></div>
 
  
As of November 2, 2022, all the mice in the Gloomy Greenwood '''will no longer drop any ingredients including Mousedrake Root'''.
+
==== Kegs of Bland Queso ====
 +
Big Jaq's Bland Queso Kegs have been stolen! Catch mice in Queso Canyon for a chance to get a cheesy reward (she won't mind you keeping the kegs for yourself). The kegs come in three sizes and you can use Wild Tonic to shake loose '''double''' the kegs when mice drop them!
  
Since the mice are no longer dropping ingredients, '''Insidious Incense will no longer work in the Gloomy Greenwood'''.
+
*Small
 +
:'''250 Bland Queso'''
  
Any ingredients that you've already collected can still be brewed and '''everything else will remain unchanged'''.
+
*Medium
 +
:'''500 Bland Queso'''
  
To speed up the cash-out process, these exchanges have been made available at the Gloomy Greenwood Apothecary (General Store):

+
These Kegs of Queso can be collected '''anywhere in the region''', including the Queso Geyser! Fortunately, the kegs are heat-resistant and buoyant enough to safely float in the liquid hot queso at the geyser. As a result, the kegs will appear as loot drops directly from mice and not in nests.
<div style="font-size: 115%>'''Bye Bye, Boon!'''</div></div>
 
  
Along with the magic of the cauldrons, Baba Gaga's Boon will fade and will no longer affect your Boiling Cauldron Trap. The Boiling Cauldron Trap will revert to its original stats and will no longer provide a boosted drop rate of specialty potions.
+
==== Spice Leaf and Cork Material Exchange ====
  
==== Premium Shop ====
+
Big Jaq has expanded her wares and offers a Spice Leaf and Cork Material Exchange! You can exchange up your Nachore, Spice Leaves, AND Cork Materials for higher tier items! Make sure you don't miss out!
