Mousehunt Halloween 2021 Event Guide

October 14, 2021 | Guide


It is that creepy time of the year again, the Mousehunt Halloween 2021 event is HERE!!



What's New:

New Mouse


New Items to collect

Trap: Boiling Cauldron Trap
How to get: Brew 3 Batches of Evil Extract. Details below

Decent ArcaneArcane trap, better than Arcane Capturing Rod Of Never Yielding Mystery Trap, but still not as good as newer traps.

Check out the list of best traps here: Best Traps and Bases

If you are a new player, this will certainly come in handy to hunt your first ArcaneArcane mice in Bristle Woods

Otherwise, just treat this as something new to collect. It is free!! Why not?


Base: Alchemist's Cookbook Base
How to get: Brew 10 Batches of Evil Extract

This base is not just to boost new players but to also boost your adventure in any place involving potion drop requirements because:

This base also has a chance to duplicate any potion that a mouse drops as loot
When armed with the Boiling Cauldron Trap, this base is guaranteed to duplicate any potion that the trap produces

Yes, any potion, including Gauntlet Potions and the new Dragonbane Potion

Also a note from FBF: Using the in BWRift to +1 ASC/RSC potions will not count as loot in the room

Goals

A. Brew 35-40 Batches of Evil Extract

Adventure: Brew an Evil Extract
Collect Mousedrake Root by hunting with any brewed cheese
Brew 15 Mousedrake Root in a cauldron to distill a batch of Evil Extract for purchasing potions!


This is pretty quick to do actually. You can just hunt in the new event area using Monterey Jack-O-Lantern cheese to collect enough Mousedrake Root. Refer to the point below on how to get the Monterey Jack-O-Lantern cheese


You can use the cauldron (it does not matter left or right, or even both) to brew the Evil Extract for every 15 x Mousedrake Root


If your goal is to brew 35 batches for the Spooky Reward Box, then you need 525 Mousedrake Root

and if your goal is to brew 40, then 600 of that. Simple.




B. Catch Baba Gaga Mouse

For this one, hunters need to hunt in the new event area, which is Gloomy Greenwood, to catch mice to collect materials to craft cheese to catch mice and repeat. You know the drill. And if you notice this pattern, yes, this is similar to how we hunt things in Queso area with a little bit of brewing involved.


You can use the following two items to make your adventure progress faster:

Reactive Reagent - Available from Premium Shop and Marketplace

Use one to reduce the brew requirement by 1

However, you can only choose to instant finish the brews, can't use them partially
