Tactical
Built upon research of battle strategy, these traps are especially strong against mice trained in the art of war.
The Tactical power type of weapons can effectively catch the majority of Furoma Mice. Tactical weapons are generally useless against most Mousoleum and Bristle Woods breeds.
Types of Tactical weapons
There are two tactical weapon currently available for purchase, the Zugzwang's Last Move at the Training Grounds and the lower powered Venus Mouse Trap at the Great Gnarled Tree.
The Thorned Venus Mouse Trap, currently the most powerful of the Tactical weapons, is only available by combining a Venus Mouse Trap Husk with items found and purchased in the Tribal Isles. The Mutated Venus Mouse Trap, the third-most powerful tactical trap, is available by combining the husk with 20 Radioactive Sludge.
The Ambush weapon, currently the second-most powerful of the Tactical weapons, is only available through crafting materials collected in Furoma and from the General Store.
The Snow Barrage, the luckiest of the Tactical weapons, is a limited-edition weapon that was only offered at Ronza's Traveling Shoppe during mid-December 2008.
