The Great Winter Hunt of 2011
So, from 8th December 2011, The
Festive Comet has landed in Gnawnia creating a massive snow pile and destroying
Calamity Carl's Toy Shop (a quick intro if you haven't read the news post about the guy... The guy is a toy builder and has rented the
Vacant Lot to build his toy factory, you can see his picture and the official page of TGWH 2011
here). This year's TGWH is a lot more complicated than last year's (last year, we only have to catch the 12 mice of winter), this time we have to build toys!
If you have read the instructions and didn't get it, I will explain it to you. So, this year's TGWH has a trap called the
Nutcracker Nuisance Trap, we can exchange the blueprint for 500
Toy Receipts (These stuffs are
Limited Edition [LE], be sure to collect them). To get these receipst, start building toys, here's how the game goes:
- When you first travel to the
Festive Comet, you will be given 30
Festive Fetas by the game (this is a HUGE help!)
- Your choice, hunt in the Comet or directly go to
Dracano (for ranks
Knight and above), or
Catacombs, these two areas are the only one that will give you special parts. But, for you who aren't
Legendary this will be hard because your parts will be limited to only
Wooden-Clockworks
- After you get the specific amount of materials to build a toy, go build it and collect the receipts until you have 500 receipts, then you can get the blueprint.
- Congratulations, you finished all the sequence to get the trap for this year's TGWH, feel free to enjoy the festivity!
The Guide to Collecting Toy Materials According to Levels:
- Recruit - Journeyman
Hunt around
Gnawnia and your max. and best area is
Calm Clearing and your toy parts are limited to
Wooden only
- Master - Grandmaster
Hunt around
Gnawnia and your max. and best area is
Catacombs because this area has the materials until
Clockwork level and the special
Ghostly Cloth to build the highest level of
Clockwork toy.
- Legendary - Hero
Hunt around
Gnawnia and your max. and best area is Tribal Isles, the areas are filled with
Metal items so that you can build
Metal toys and get more receipts (For now you can only build the
Tin-Larry)
- Knight - Duke
Hunt around
Gnawnia and your max. and best areas ARE
Dracano and
Ballack's Cove (BC).
Dracano specialist in
Metal items and for the
Draconic Toy and the
Replica Deathbot (highest receipt)
toy, while BC is good for collecting
Metal items and the
Ghostly Cloth for the
Ghastly Jack in the Box. But, for the best catch rate, hunt in
Dracano.
How to Acquire Festive Fetas and Trap Setups:
- Acquiring Festive Fetas:
For this stage, it is good to use something that has a balanced power, luck, but high attraction (for thos who has the
Rewers Riposte use it, while for those who don't
Swiss Army, Enraged RhinoBot, Horrific Mutated Venus Trap and
Zugzwang's First Move is also recommended, use
WBWT or
Cheese Cake Base, that has high attraction level). Use
BRIE for collecting the cheese,
Gouda is not worth using.
Attraction Charms are also recommended but not a have to.
- Using Festive Fetas and Capturing Event Mice:
For this stage, it is good to use a very high rate attraction base (except when you are using the
Swiss Army Mouse Trap, you have to use like the
Dehydration Base or something higher with less stale cheese effect). Stick with
Rewers Riposte if you have one, use
Cheesecake Base, and you don't have to use the
Attraction Charm because the
Festive Fetas already have high attraction rate. Good luck hunting!
This is the final stop for the Winter Hunt of 2011, as the year closes and goes to 2012... Be sure to prepare money for Ronza's Traveling Shoppe in January, the last time she left, the description said that she was looking for buckets of Chrome Paint... Be ready! Happy Hunting... Merry Chirstmas 2011...
