== Overview ==

{{rtoc}}
The [[Great Gnarled Tree]] is a location in the [[Whisker Woods]] region requiring a minimum rank of [[Master]] and the [[Great Gnarled Tree Map Piece]] to enter.<br/>
+
''The enticing blue water hypnotizes hunters, distracting them from the dangerous mice that take up residence nearby. The terrain that surrounds the Lagoon is extremely unsteady, comprised of jagged rocks and slick moss. High up in the trees that surround the Lagoon are the nests of Harpy mice who act as a plague to all hunters, stealing their cheese, gold and crippling their courage. Some mice here are not attracted to conventional bait. It is highly recommended that a hunter use Gnarled cheese when hunting at the Lagoon.''
Mice in the [[Great Gnarled Tree]] cannot steal gold or points, but can steal cheese if not caught.<br/>
 
Mice in the [[Great Gnarled Tree]] are primarily weak to [[Tactical]] weapons. [[Arcane]], [[Hydro]], [[Law]], [[Physical]] and [[Shadow]] weapons can also be used, though they may perform less well.
 
  
== Great Gnarled Tree Mice ==
+
== Description and Requirements ==
The majority of the mice found in the [[Great Gnarled Tree]] are part of the [[Forest Guild]] group and are primarily weak to [[Tactical]] weapons. These mice also have a weakness to [[Arcane]], [[Hydro]], [[Law]], [[Physical]] and [[Shadow]] weapons.<br/>
+
The '''Lagoon''' is a location in the [[Whisker Woods]] region requiring a minimum rank of [[Hunter's Title|Grandmaster]] and [[Map of the Lagoon|the map to the Lagoon]], obtained by successfully catching a [[Fairy]] carrying the map in the [[Great Gnarled Tree]], to enter. Mice in this location may steal points, gold, or multiple pieces of cheese if not captured.
The [[Bat Mouse]] is part of [[The Shadow Clan]] group and is primarily weak to [[Shadow]] weapons.  [[Tactical]] weapons are '''less effective''' against the [[Bat Mouse]], but [[Arcane]], [[Forgotten]], and [[Physical]] weapons are of normal effectiveness.<br/>
 
The [[Black Widow]], [[Dwarf]], and [[Nibbler]] mice are part of the [[Indigenous]] group and are weak to all [[Power Type]]s.

+

+

All standard cheese types, including [[SUPER brie+|SUPER|brie+]], only attract handful of mice in the Lagoon. [[Gnarled Cheese]] attracts a wider variety. The [[Silth]] mouse is only attracted to [[Wicked Gnarly]]. Refer to the table to the left for help choosing the right cheese for the right mouse.
  
===[[Treasure Map]]s===
+
===Adventure Book===
Many mice in the [[Great Gnarled Tree]] are often found on [[Whisker Woods Treasure Map]]s and [[Relic Hunter Treasure Maps]].  
+
Hunters can complete the final step to [[Craft the S.S. Huntington III]] by catching a [[Hydra Mouse]] in the [[Lagoon]] to obtain the [[Ship Blueprints]] and craft the [[S.S. Huntington III]].
  
 
===Hunting tips by [[Larry]]===
 
===Hunting tips by [[Larry]]===
Welcome to the Great Gnarled Tree. Watch your step, it's a long way down!
 
  
A [[Trapsmith]] has set up shop upon the highest branch of the tree and has a unique [[Venus Mouse Trap|Tactical trap]] for sale. You'll find this trap more effective against some of the mice that dwell in and around the Great Gnarled Tree.
+
The waters of the Lagoon look dangerous! I hope you can swim!
  
The magic of the Great Gnarled Tree has led to the discovery of [[Gnarled Potion|potions]]. These potions are used to create [[Gnarled Cheese|Gnarled]] cheese which is sure to come in handy as you move deeper into the woods.
+
You will find yourself having trouble attracting mice to your trap here, unless you use '''[[Gnarled Cheese]]'''. If you need more Gnarled cheese, head back to the [[Great Gnarled Tree]] to collect [[Gnarled Potion|potions]] from the mice there. Or, if you want to attract the really valuable mice here, you might want to make some '''[[Wicked Gnarly]] Cheese'''. MouseHunters pursuing this cheese might benefit from consulting a certain [[Curious Chemist]] at the Great Gnarled Tree about ingredients.
  
Keep your eyes open for a magical [[Fairy]] mouse that may hold [[Map of the Lagoon|clues]] regarding what lies in the woods beyond the Great Gnarled Tree.
+
Dwelling in the water is the fearsome [[Hydra]] mouse. The Hydra originates from the Ocean to the East, where it is known for being the cause of many shipwrecks. For this reason, the Hydra is known for dropping many nautical items. If you have your sea legs, try hunting the Hydra. You may just discover the mysteries of the ocean in the process.

At the edge of Whisker Woods lies a tree older than Gnawnia itself. Its magic roots stretch far underground and deep into the woods, giving life to the other trees. The shadow it casts is so massive that it began to affect the surrounding area through time, blocking necessary light from other trees. As a result, the other trees seem almost alive as they bend back and forth, seeking out the light.

The enticing blue water hypnotizes hunters, distracting them from the dangerous mice that take up residence nearby. The terrain that surrounds the Lagoon is extremely unsteady, comprised of jagged rocks and slick moss. High up in the trees that surround the Lagoon are the nests of Harpy mice who act as a plague to all hunters, stealing their cheese, gold and crippling their courage. Some mice here are not attracted to conventional bait. It is highly recommended that a hunter use Gnarled cheese when hunting at the Lagoon.

Description and Requirements

The Lagoon is a location in the Whisker Woods region requiring a minimum rank of Grandmaster and the map to the Lagoon, obtained by successfully catching a Fairy carrying the map in the Great Gnarled Tree, to enter. Mice in this location may steal points, gold, or multiple pieces of cheese if not captured.

Shops

There are no shops available in the Lagoon. Shops for the Whisker Woods region can be found in the Great Gnarled Tree.

Hunting Strategy

Hunters have several Trap Setup Options for the Lagoon. Gnarled and Wicked Gnarly cheese are the only cheeses that are consistently effective in attracting the mice that are common in this location.

All standard cheese types, including SUPER|brie+, only attract handful of mice in the Lagoon. Gnarled Cheese attracts a wider variety. The Silth mouse is only attracted to Wicked Gnarly. Refer to the table to the left for help choosing the right cheese for the right mouse.

Adventure Book

Hunters can complete the final step to Craft the S.S. Huntington III by catching a Hydra Mouse in the Lagoon to obtain the Ship Blueprints and craft the S.S. Huntington III.

Hunting tips by Larry

The waters of the Lagoon look dangerous! I hope you can swim!

You will find yourself having trouble attracting mice to your trap here, unless you use Gnarled Cheese. If you need more Gnarled cheese, head back to the Great Gnarled Tree to collect potions from the mice there. Or, if you want to attract the really valuable mice here, you might want to make some Wicked Gnarly Cheese. MouseHunters pursuing this cheese might benefit from consulting a certain Curious Chemist at the Great Gnarled Tree about ingredients.

Dwelling in the water is the fearsome Hydra mouse. The Hydra originates from the Ocean to the East, where it is known for being the cause of many shipwrecks. For this reason, the Hydra is known for dropping many nautical items. If you have your sea legs, try hunting the Hydra. You may just discover the mysteries of the ocean in the process.
