| − | ===Great Winter Hunt: Extreme Toboggan Challenge===
| |
| − | ''{{date|15|December|2015}}'' | |
| | | | |
| | <blockquote> | | <blockquote> |
| − | :''An extreme tobogganing challenge awaits hunters during this year's Great Winter Hunt!''
| |
| − | ====Great Winter Hunt Begins====
| |
| − | With each year comes a new icy ball of snow hurtling from outer space towards Gnawnia. Cheerfully referred to as the Festive Comet, this yearly tradition has smashed into the Kingdom and created an absolutely perfect tobogganing site!
| |
| | | | |
| − | Hunters and mice alike have taken to the slopes, however, a few of the mice have outfitted their toboggans with extreme upgrades! These pesky rodents have been flaunting their superior tobogganing skills and putting the pride of hunters to shame. The quickest mouse of them all, the Rainbow Racer Mouse, has challenged all of Gnawnia to an extreme tobogganing challenge! Not to be outdone by a mouse, the King has accepted the challenge and tasked hunters with constructing their own extreme toboggans and defeating the mouse champions on the slopes.
| + | '''Viceroy hunters and above can now embark on a new adventure.'''<br> |
| | + | Study hard to advance from Apprentice to Master at the School of Sorcery! |
| | | | |
| − | ====Completing a Toboggan Course==== | + | ==== Classes have begun at the School of Sorcery! ==== |
| − | There are a variety of different tobogganing courses divided into different lengths and levels of difficulty. You'll start on smaller hills with few hazards and obstacles, however, as you become more experienced you'll be able to take on more challenging courses to earn the biggest rewards!
| + | The Mythweaver's latest plot has been discovered and it involves instructing the mice of the Folklore Forest in the ways of his malevolent magic! |
| | | | |
| − | To get to the bottom of the hill you'll need to hunt your way past all sorts of festive mice that are there to sabotage your progress. Each hunt you take on the hill will move you forward by your current speed. Successfully capturing a mouse will increase your speed, meaning you'll move further on your next hunt. Failing to attract or capture a mouse will reduce your speed. Finally, on each hill there are various hazards and obstacles that can also reduce your speed by various amounts or give you sweet speed bonuses and loot! The harder the course, the more hazards there are and the more challenging the hazards become!
| + | The King needs the bravest and most studious MouseHunters, Viceroy and above, to enroll at the new School of Sorcery and teach the Mythweaver and his minions a thing or two about classroom etiquette. |
| | | | |
| − | ====Controlling your Toboggan==== | + | ==== Enrollment Process! ==== |
| − | *Each hunt moves you forward by the current speed of your toboggan
| + | The Tale of the Sorcerer's Apprentice map piece can be purchased from the Bountiful Beanstalk Cartographer for '''1,000,000 Gold''', '''1,000 Golden Goose Eggs''', and requires completion of the Slay the Mythical Giant King adventure for any hunters who have yet to obtain it. |
| − | *Capturing a mouse increases your speed, moving you further on your next hunt
| |
| − | *Failing to attract or capture a mouse will decrease your speed
| |
| − | *Various hazards and obstacles can also reduce your speed
| |
| | | | |
| − | ====Defeating Your Rival====
| + | Alternatively, hunters who earned Thousandth Draft Derby Cheese during the Spring Egg Hunt can earn the map piece by hunting the M1000 at the Table of Contents. |
| − | Each course you start will pit you against a mouse rival in a head-to-head race. It's up to you to defend the honour of the Kingdom and beat the pesky rodent to the bottom of the hill and win the race! Completing a course will earn you a variety of rewards whether you win the race or not, however, winning the race will grant the best rewards! To beat your rival, you'll want to make sure you're well prepared. Luckily, Larry has some quick tips on how to maximize your speed and chance for success.
| |
| | | | |
| − | *'''Use Arctic Asiago'''
| + | ==== Lessons in the Science of Refraction ==== |
| − | :The icy surface of Arctic Asiago greatly reduces friction. While armed, this cheese will give your toboggan a +1 speed bonus! The best way to collect Arctic Asiago is by using any regular bait while not on a course. SUPER|brie+ as well as various "festive" themed bait will attract a couple special mice that drop multiple pieces at once!
| + | The new Trapsmith at the School of Sorcery has become a master of refractive science and has developed an extraordinary new entry into the line of refractor bases. |
| | | | |
| − | *'''Avoid the Free Skiing Mouse'''
| + | {| style="width: 20%; margin: auto" |
| − | :The most sinister and least festive mouse on the slopes is the Free Skiing Mouse. This terror of a snow mouse is resistant to all known traps, making it incredibly difficult to capture. To keep your speed as high as possible, avoiding this powerful mouse is key! Fortunately, the Free Skiing Mouse's hatred for all things festive means it will stay clear of your trap if you have any type of festive bait armed. | + | | style="border: 0.083em solid; border-radius: 0.416em; padding: 0.416em" | |
| − | :'''To avoid the Free Skier, arm Arctic Asiago, Festive Feta, Snowball Bocconcini, Gingerbread, Seasoned Gouda, or Nutmeg Cheese.'''
| + | <center>''' Sorcerer's Sapphire Refractor Base'''</center> |
| | | | |
| − | *'''Use Nitro for a +4 Speed Boost'''
| + | <center>Harness the power of Sorcerer's Sapphires!</center> |
| − | :Toboggan Nitro will give your sled an instant +4 speed bonus, super-charging your toboggan, bringing it beyond its maximum speed! Nitro can be activated from the heads-up display while on a toboggan course. Each hunt you take with nitro active will use one nitro canister. You'll find nitro inside special crates on some courses, as a reward from the Snowball Showdown, and inside some supply kits and gift baskets!
| |
| | | | |
| − | *'''Upgrade Your Toboggan''' | + | <center>'''Stats'''</center> |
| − | :Each time you finish a course you'll earn a variety of parts that you can use to upgrade your toboggan, increasing its speed, power, and loot-gathering abilities! You'll earn these parts whether you beat your rival or not, so make sure to use the parts and ensure victory in your next race! | + | * Power: '''2,500''' |
