Hints have been provided by Iskall85 on Twitch however first look and mechanics have not been released yet. Check out [https://www.twitch.tv/iskall85 Iskall85] when he is live to find more spoilers and check back after the next update. Actual Implementation subject to change.

=== How It Works ===
The Egg Hunt event can occur once per vault run. The sequence is:
 
# '''25% Chance''': Each vault run has a 1 in 4 chance of activating the egg hunt.
# '''Random Time''': If chosen, the game picks a random moment between '''5 minutes after the start''' and the '''last 5 minutes''' of the vault.
# '''XP Requirement''': At that time, the game checks whether the player has collected the required XP. If yes, the egg appears.
 
If the check is failed, the game continues to monitor the XP until the requirement is met.
 
'''Restrictions:''' This event does not occur in:
* [[Royale (objective)|Royale Vaults]]
* Greed Vaults
* [[Herald Vault|Herald Vaults]]
* [[Ascention Vaults|Ascension Vaults]]
* [[PVP Royale|PvP Vaults]]
* Raid Vaults
 
''Note: your companion will also not work in these vaults.''
 
=== XP Requirement ===
 
The XP you need is based on three parts:
 
==== Base Value ====
* '''Vault Level × 1000'''
 
==== Modifiers ====
* '''[[Catalysts|Crystal Modifiers]] and Companion Modifiers''' (not braziers): each increases the XP required by 20%
* '''[[Inscriptions|Inscriptions]]''': each increases the XP required by 10%
* '''Random Bonus''': adds 0–25% XP
