====Explore Queso Geyser====
+
==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 1 ====
The King's Royal Geologists have completed their survey of Queso Geyser, allowing hunters with the Queso Geyser Replica Clay Model to access the geyser as a new hunting location!
+
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
The frequent eruptions of molten queso have attracted all sorts of powerful Draconic mice to the area! Working with Larry, the King's Geologists have devised a plan for luring these high-flying beasts towards a trap. Three words: Massive. Geyser. Corks.
+
==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 2 ====
 +
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
Collect Cork Bark held by various mice native to the geyser to construct an impressively-sized cork to stick in the geyser. Then, defend your newly constructed cork from mice to allow the pressure to build to massive levels and trigger impressive eruptions of liquid cheese.
+
==== PARAGRAPH HEADER 3 ====
 +
CONTENT OF PARAGRAPH
  
Once an eruption occurs, powerful breeds of Draconic mice will swoop down from the sky towards the airborne queso and come within range of your trap. The constant flow of molten cheese will make collecting loot too dangerous, however, each item a dragon drops will go into a nest that you can safely loot once the eruption subsides.
+
-- {{MHP|POSTER SNUID|POSTER NAME}}
  
Some members of the King's Royal Council have expressed concern over the idea of constructing enormous corks to temporarily seal the geyser and build cheesy pressure in an already unstable section of ground, but the geologists have assured us that it's *perfectly* safe...
+
----
  
====Types of Geyser Corks====
+
</blockquote> -->
There are four different varieties of cork you can construct to withstand different levels of pressure and, as a result, trigger differently-sized queso eruptions. The larger the eruption, the larger (and more lucrative) Draconic mice you'll attract!

''{{date|9|January|2024}}''
  
Using spicier flavours of queso cheese will attract more powerful dragons that drop more cork, increase pressure more, and are more lucrative to hunt. With a little experimentation, you will find which flavour of queso works best for each circumstance.

Fire your final hailstones and send out your final golems!
  
'''Small Cork'''<br>

'''Large Cork'''<br>

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.
Made from Cork Bark and Geyserite<br>
 
Collect a unique rock-like material called Geyserite during a medium eruption to create a large-sized cork. These corks can withstand a much greater pressure of 1,000 kPA to trigger a large eruption.
 
  
'''Epic Cork'''<br>

Soon all the snow will be gone and the Frost King and his forces will go into hiding for another year.
Made from Cork Bark and Tungsten<br>
 
Tungsten is an extremely dense material that can be collected during a large eruption to create an epic-sized cork. These corks can withstand a whopping 3,000 kPA to trigger an epic eruption!
 
  
====Looting a Dragon Nest and Rewards====
 
During an eruption, the flow of molten queso makes it too dangerous to collect loot. Instead, a nest fills with loot with each capture. After each eruption subsides you can collect all the loot dropped by the various Draconic mice inside the nest and find all sorts of rewards. You'll find Bland Queso, various Spice Leaves, trap components, and other supplies!

Purchase a Physical Trap<br>
+
*Mice are no longer dropping Golem Parts or Pecan Pecorino

+
The following things will remain the same '''until January 16''' when the event shuts down completely:
Purchase a Tactical Trap<br>
+
*Golems can still be built and sent out
Collect or purchase three of these chisels to purchase the Gouging Geyserite Trap. This trap boasts 9,000 Power, making it the most powerful Tactical trap ever created!

Research a Draconic Trap<br>
 
This mysterious item exists only as a rumor spread by the local trapsmith. The trapsmith at Queso Geyser claims this rare and powerful item could be used to create an extremely powerful and high-luck Draconic trap. However, the exact design remains a mystery.

+
*Golem Parts
Before looting a nest, you can sprinkle this dust to magically add 5 items to the nest! Dusting a nest will add Cork Materials, Amber Queso, Bland Queso, Spice Leaves, and final random item. Dusting nests after larger eruptions will reward greater quantities of higher-tier items.
