}} The New Years Mouse is a breed of mouse found in the Year of the Dragon Festival location where they are known to drop Dragon Breath Potions, King's Reserve Bubbleh, Nitropop Potions, and as loot.
Preferred Cheese
New Years mice have no specific preference for any kind of cheese. However in 2010, there were some reports that hunters were successful attracting this mouse after switching to SUPER|brie+ cheese. In 2011, New Years mice were found to be especially attracted to Festive Feta cheese, to the point that any other kind of cheese simply would not suffice.
Hunting Strategy
Firecracker Charms or Nitropop Charms must be armed in order to attract this mouse.
History and Trivia
- New Years mice were released on 30 December 2009 for the first time and were found in Ronza's Traveling Shoppe during The Great Winter Hunt '09 event where they managed to intercept the shipment of rockets and firecrackers.
- Due to a typographical error, this mouse was originally released as the "New Year's Mouse Mouse." This was later corrected to New Year's Mouse, which was changed to its current form with the release of MouseHunt Version 3.0.
- On 30 December 2010, New Years Mice were re-released into the Festive Comet during the Great Winter Hunt 2010, with the image updated to have the firecracker state 2011. They were known to drop King's Reserve Bubbleh and Satchel of Gold, worth 2,011 gold, as loot.
- It was revealed During the Feedback Friday on 31 December 2010 that the Bubbleh loot drop was extremely low; only an approximate 6,000 New Years Mice had the loot item.
- On 30 December 2011, New Years Mice were re-released in the Festive Comet and across the kingdom during the Great Winter Hunt 2011, but the image remained unchanged with the firecracker still stating 2011. They developed a preference for Festive Feta as bait and were known to drop Firecracker Charms, King's Reserve Bubbleh and regional gifts, such as the Gnawnia Winter Gift, as loot.
- New Years Mice were re-released in the Dragon Festival location on 23 January 2012 as part of the Year of the Dragon Festival, where they were found to drop Dragon Breath Potions, King's Reserve Bubbleh, and Nitropop Potions as loot. It was during this event that the use of Firecracker and Nitropop Charms to attract them was introduced. The image was updated with the year no longer showing on the firecracker.
