====New Toxic Spill Cleanup Crew====
+
----
  
The new cleanup crew assembled by the King will cleanup the Toxic Spill at a much more predictable pace, however, they still need the help of hunters to provide protection from the dangerous mice at the Toxic Spill! While hunting powerful mice during a spill and protecting the cleanup crew you'll still find all the same loot items as before, including Crude Pollutinum.

 +
''{{date|9|January|2024}}''
  
Each phase of a Toxic Spill will now be cleaned up at a steady, predictable rate ranging from 18 to 32 hours. Upon the completion of a phase's cleanup, the pollution level will lower, making it safer for the the next rank of hunters to venture in.

'''The Taiga is thawing'''

Fire your final hailstones and send out your final golems!
  
'''Cleanup Times by Pollution Level:'''<br/>
+
<blockquote>
This new cleanup crew has studied each of the mutated mice and trained well to clean each stage of the spill efficiently.<br/>
 
The following is how long they take to mop up the mess for each level of the spill:<br/>
 
  
*Archduke/Archduchess: 32 hours
+
==== The Great Winter Hunt is Coming to an End ====
*Grand Duke/Duchess: 24 hours
+
Congratulations MouseHunters, thanks to your valiant efforts, the Frost King's forces are retreating!
*Duke/Duchess: 24 hours
 
*Count/Countess: 24 hours
 
*Baron/Baroness: 20 hours
 
*Lord/Lady: 20 hours
 
*Knight: 18 hours
 
*Hero: 18 hours
 
  
The cleanup time for all eight phases adds up to seven and a half days, meaning, a Toxic Spill that starts at Archduke/Archduchess level will take seven and a half days to be cleaned up. A spill that is classified at a lower rank will take less time to clean up.
+
After the relentless barrage of Hailstones from the brave hunters of Gnawnia, the Frost King's icy powers are waning and the Great Winter Taiga is beginning to thaw.
  
====New Uses for Refined Pollutinum====
+
Soon all the snow will be gone and the Frost King and his forces will go into hiding for another year.
Extensive research about the spill and Pollutinum has not only allowed for a more predictable cleanup process, but has also found new uses for Refined Pollutinum!
 
  
'''Refined Pollutinum Base'''<br/>
 
The Refined Pollutinum Base is a refined, upgraded version of the Polluted Base that has increased strength and durability. The Refined Pollutinum Base has 500 Power, 12% Power Bonus, 5% Attraction Bonus, and 10 Luck. Additionally, when paired with any type of Polluted Charm, the base's Luck is amplified, sending it to new heights of Luck and Power! When paired with an Ultimate Polluted Charm, this base achieves a staggering +25 Luck!
 
  
'''Toxic Brie and Toxic SUPER|brie+'''<br/>
+
<div style="text-align: left; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em"><div style="text-align: center; font-size: 115%;">'''The Great Winter Hunt has entered the shutdown phase'''</div>
Imbued with the power of Pollutinum, these two noxious types of cheese weaken mice and amplify the power of your trap! Toxic Brie and Toxic SUPER|brie+ contain the same mouse-attracting power as their regular counterparts with an added 20% Power Bonus!
 
  
:'''These two types of cheese are effective anywhere regular Brie Cheese and SUPER|brie+ are used -- They do not work at the Toxic Spill itself.'''
+
The following changes have happened in the Taiga:
 +
*Mice are no longer dropping Golem Parts or Pecan Pecorino
 +
*Mice in Cinnamon Hill are no longer dropping Compressed Cinnamon
  
'''Super Scum Scrubber'''
+
The following things will remain the same '''until January 16''' when the event shuts down completely:
Apply this upgrade to your Scum Scrubber to improve your Crude Pollutinum harvesting ability. With this trap equipped, you'll always find Crude Pollutinum when a mouse is caught.
+
*Golems can still be built and sent out
 +
*Cinnamon can still power the Forges in the Golem Part Workshop
 +
*Hailstones can still be fired at the Ice Fortress</div>
  
'''Noxious School of Sharks Skin'''
 
This totally sludgy, grimy, and polluted skin for the School of Sharks may intimidate both mouse and hunter with its mean and grungy look.
 
  
'''Pollutinum Wealth Chest'''
+
<div style="text-align: left; border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em"><div style="text-align: center; font-size: 115%;">'''The Great Winter Hunt will end completely on'''<br>'''Tuesday, January 16, 2024'''</div>
Looking to cash in your Refined Pollutinum for sweet, sweet gold? These opulent chests are made of Refined Pollutinum and gilded with the finest gold. An eccentric scientist that refused to leave the Laboratory upon it becoming infested with mice now supplies the General Store at the Laboratory with these chests. Being that the scientist has no interest in leaving the Lab to visit the spill, they're willing to offer hunters these quirky chests of wealth in exchange for a handful of Refined Pollutinum. Inside each chest is 100,000 gold along with another random treasure from the Toxic Spill.
 
  
'''Hydro Charm'''
+
Hunters can continue to send out Snow Golems until the event ends completely.
Raw Pollutinum is constantly bubbling and flowing. Once refined, this flowing power is tightly concentrated within the Refined Pollutinum crystalline structure. Hydro Charms utilize this powerful liquid reaction to change any trap into a Hydro one for a single hunt!
 
  
====Toxic Spill Treasure Maps and Chests====
+
After the event ends, the following items will melt away and be '''removed from your inventory''':
The Cartographer at the Toxic Spill is also carrying a new Toxic Spill Treasure Map Scroll Case that will lead you on treasure hunts to capture several mice at the Toxic Spill. This scroll case is a bit unique in that the types of mice you'll find on the Treasure Map depend on the current pollution level of the spill. Upon opening a map, you'll want to quickly target the highest tier mice on the map before that phase of the spill comes to an end, sending the mice back into hiding.

 +
*Reinforced Ice Shards
 +
*Compressed Cinnamon
 +
*Hailstones
 +
*Firework Sugar Cookies
 +

 +
*Golem Gift Box
  
If you miss a mouse from a pollution level, fear not: When the pollution level at the spill lowers the map owner will be able to claim a consolation prize for each mouse that was caught on the map. Each person in the group receives the same consolation prize and whomever dusted the map will have their Rare Map Dust returned. The more mice caught, the larger the consolation prize, so keep hunting the mice you can!
