===Hunting During the Day===
+
There are 5 [[#Fort|defensive features]] in this area:
−
During the '''Day''' Hunters will encounter mice that are primarily weak to [[Law]] weapons and attracted to [[Standard Cheese]] and {{SB}}. These mice drop [[Meteorite Piece]]s used for building the '''Basic Wall''' and for repairing any damage to the Wall done during the '''Night'''. Hunters can make upgrades to their Fort during the '''Day''' using materials gathered during the '''Night'''.
+
*The [[#Wall|Wall]] determines the Hunter's survivability during [[#Night|Night]] and [[#Dawn|Dawn]].
 +
*The [[#Ballista|Ballista]] improves the catch rate against [[Weremice]] and [[Nightmancer]].
 +

 +
*The [[#Moat|Moat]] reduces damage to the '''Wall'''.

===Hunting at Night===
+
There are 4 [[#Phases|phases]] in this area:
−
Hunters must build a '''Basic Wall''' before they can defended the Fort by hunting during the '''Night'''.  Mice found during the '''Night''' are weak only to [[Arcane]] and [[Shadow]] weapons and have a preference for [[Crescent Cheese]] or [[Moon Cheese]], though [[Standard Cheese]] and {{SB}} may be used to lesser effect.
+
*During [[#Day|Day]], the Hunter can collect [[Meteorite Piece]], repair [[#Wall|Wall]] and upgrade [[#Fort|Fort]].
 +
*During [[#Night|Night]], the Hunter can collect [[Howlite]] and [[Bloodstone]] to upgrade '''Fort''' when return to '''Day'''.
 +
*During [[#Dawn|Dawn]], the Hunter can collect [[Dawn Dust]] to purchase [[Map Piece]] for the next area as well as to access a [[#Heart of the Meteor|harder challenge]] in '''{{PAGENAME}}'''.
 +
*During [[#Heart of the Meteor|Heart of the Meteor]], the Hunter can hunt for [[Meteoric Core Fragments]], which is required to purchase a new [[Law]] weapon in the [[#Trapsmith|Trapsmith]].
  
−
The '''Night''' is divided into 6 phases: Twilight, Midnight, Pitch, Utter Darkness, First Light, and Dawn. The goal for Hunters is to survive the first 5 stages of '''Night''' and reach '''Dawn''', where the [[Monster of the Meteor]] may be encountered. Mice encountered at '''Night''' will damage the Hunter's Wall and when its Health reaches 0, the Hunter will be moved back to '''Day'''.

==Night Hunting==
 
−
"'''This is my fort, I have to defend it.'''"<br/>
 
−
"I've done what I can to ready my fort and I am now ready to fight."<br/>
 
−
"I await nightfall to face the hordes of Meteorite Miners and stand against them for as long as I can!"<br/>
 
−
 
 
−
Mice found during '''Night''' are weak only to [[Arcane]] and [[Shadow]] weapons. [[Crescent Cheese]] and [[Moon Cheese]] are preferred by mice at '''Night''', but [[Standard Cheese]] and {{SB}} will also attract desirable nightmice at a lower rate. Mice found during the '''Night''' drop [[Meteorite Piece]]s, [[Tower Mana]], [[Howlite]], [[Bloodstone]], and [[Dawn Dust]]. These items are primarily used to upgrade the Hunter's Fort defenses. The Hunter's Fort defenses can only be upgraded during the '''Day'''.
 
−
 
 
−
To hunt during the '''Night''', select '''Defend Fort''' at the upper left of the HUD which will open the following pop-up:
 
−
:'''"Are you prepared to defend your fort?"'''
 
−
:"Once night falls, an unending horde of terrors will descend."
 
−
:"Defend your fort and survive as long as you can!"
 
−
:"Spend [X] Meteorite Piece(s) to repair to full health?"
 
−
::This message is shown only when a Hunter attempts to enter night with a damaged wall.  Checking the box in front of this message will spend the [[Meteorite Piece]]s necessary to bring the wall to full health.
 
−
:"I need more time"
 
−
::or
 
−
:"I'm ready to defend!"
 
−
 
 
−
===Phases of the Night===
 
−
Hunters defend their Fort by hunting during the night and reaching '''Dawn'''.  As hunters progress through the night, their wall will take damage.  When the wall's health is reduced to zero, Hunters will be moved back to '''Day'''. The goal is to reach '''Dawn''' with enough wall health left to successfully hunt the '''Dawn Destroyers'''.
 
  
−
Each phase of the night has a specific length and every hunt made will cause the Hunter to progress toward '''Dawn'''.  The total length of the 5 phases of '''Night''' is 130 hunts. Failing to capture a [[Nightmancer Mouse]] will extend the length of the night by 3 hunts. An active '''Mage Tower''' with the '''Sunsphere Enchantment''' will reduce the hunts until Dawn by 2 after every hunt.
+
The damage can be reduced by [[#Moat|Moat]].
  
−
The phases, in order, are:
+
The Hunter can choose to '''Retreat''' to [[#Day|Day]] from this phase.
−
*'''Twilight''' - 35 hunts long
 
−
:Weremice are abundant
 
−
:[[Shadow]] weapons are recommended
 
−
*'''Midnight''' - 25 hunts long
 
−
:Weremice are still the most abundant mice, but Cosmic Critters begin to appear. 
 
−
:[[Shadow]] weapons are still recommended
 
−
*'''Pitch''' - 10 hunts long
 
−
:Weremice and Cosmic Critters are found in equal measure
 
−
:[[Arcane]] and [[Shadow]] weapons are both effective
 
−
*'''Utter Darkness''' - 25 hunts long
 
−
:Cosmic Critters are now the most abundant mice, but  Weremice may still appear.
 
−
:[[Arcane]] weapons are recommended
 
−
*'''First Light''' - 35 hunts long
 
−
:Cosmic Critters are abundant
 
−
:[[Arcane]] weapons are recommended
 
  
−
Completing '''First Light''' generates a journal entry:
+
The Hunter will be transfered to [[#Day|Day]] if the [[#Wall|Wall]] health drops to 0.
−
:"I've made it to dawn. Now the real fight begins."
 
−
:"I must face off with the Monster of the Meteor in order to keep Varmint Valley safe!"
 
  
−
*'''Dawn''' - No set length.  
+
The Hunter will be transfered to [[#Dawn|Dawn]] if they progress though all sub-phases with their '''Wall''' not completely broken.
−
:Hunters may hunt here until their wall is reduced to zero health.
 
−
:The [[Dawn Guardian]] and [[Monster of the Meteor]] are found here
 
−
:[[Arcane]] weapons are recommended
 
−
:The [[Battering Ram Mouse]] will be encountered here when hunting with [[Standard Cheese]] or {{SB}}
 
  
−
*'''Heart of the Meteor''' - No set length.
+
==== Dawn ====
−
:Hunters must enter Dawn and posses a [[Fort Rox Portal Projector]] to enter this phase.
+
The Hunter can enter this phase by progressing through the [[#Night|Night]].
−
:The [[Heart of the Meteor]] is the only mouse found in this phase.
 
−
:[[Sunrise Cheese]] is required to attract the [[Heart of the Meteor]] mouse.
 
−
:[[Arcane]] weapons are recommended.
 
−
:Capturing the [[Heart of the Meteor]] will return the Hunter to the '''Dawn''' phase.
 
−
:Fort defenses have no effect and [[Tower Mana]] cannot be armed. Wall health is not affected in this phase.
 
  
−
===Wall Health and Damage===
+
A '''Damage Multiplier''' is in effect during this phase. Each catch of the [[Monster of the Meteor]] will increase the '''multiplier''' by an additional 100%. Damage from encountering [[Battering Ram Mouse]] is not multiplied.<br>
−
The '''Basic Wall''' is required before Hunters may defend the Fort at night. When the Wall is reduced to zero health, Hunters will be moved back to '''Day''' and the Wall will need to be repaired using [[Meteorite Piece]]s before Hunters can hunt during the '''Night''' again. Each [[Meteorite Piece]] repairs one damage to the Wall.
+
The damage can be reduced by [[#Moat|Moat]], but the reduction applies after the '''multiplier'''.
  
−
====Wall Health====
+
{| style="margin: 1em; text-align: center" class="sortable b_and_p"
−
The Wall's health determines how long Hunters will be able to survive during the night. Each [[Meteorite Piece]] repairs one damage to the Wall. Unless the quantity of [[Meteorite Piece]]s is insufficient to fully repair a Wall, it is not possible to partially repair a wall. However, Hunters may enter night with a partially damaged wall that is not at full health.
+

====Wall Damage====
 
−
Mice encountered during the '''Night''' will damage the Hunter's Wall under certain circumstances.
 
−
 
 
−
*Failure to Catch (FTC) = 3 damage
 
−
*Red Box FTC = 5 damage
 
−
*Failure to Attract (FTA) = 5 damage
 
−
*[[Nightfire Mouse]], FTC = 10 damage
 
−
*[[Battering Ram Mouse]], any encounter = 15 damage
 
−
 
 
−
====Wall Damage -- Dawn====
 
−
When Hunters reach '''Dawn''' each catch of a [[Monster of the Meteor]] will multiply the damage effects to the wall  by an additional 100%. Any FTC of a [[Monster of the Meteor]] or [[Dawn Guardian]] will result in greater damage to the Hunter's wall.  Damage from encountering a [[Battering Ram Mouse]] is not multiplied.
 
−
 
 
−
[[Shielding Charm]]s can be used to prevent mice from stealing gold, points, or cheese and causing a red box FTC. The amount of damage this prevents can be significant when the damage multiplier is high.

===Defenses===
+
The Hunter will be transfered to [[#Day|Day]] if the [[#Wall|Wall]] health drops to 0.
−
These defenses can be built and upgraded to obtain special hunting bonuses and effects during '''Night'''. None of these defenses are required for defending the fort at night, but they improve the Hunter's chances to reach '''Dawn'''. These defenses are not damaged while hunting and will not need to be repaired after hunting during the night.
 
  
−
Building and upgrading of defenses can only be done during the '''Day'''.
+
The Hunter can choose to enter [[#Heart of the Meteor|Heart of the Meteor]] from this phase. Doing so will consume a [[Fort Rox Portal Projector]] and add a [[Ruined Portal Projector]] to the inventory.

+
All mice here are attracted to [[Standard Cheese]]. [[Battering Ram Mouse]] is not attacted to [[Crescent Cheese]] and [[Moon Cheese]].

−
The [[Heart of the Meteor]] mouse's power will be depleted with each attraction, to the point where it is a guaranteed catch on the 10th attraction. Capturing the [[Heart of the Meteor]] will return Hunters to the '''Dawn''' phase of '''Night'''.

Phases

Day

This is the starting phase in Fort Rox. The Hunter can return to this phase from Night and Dawn when certain conditions are met.

The Fort can be upgraded only during Day.

The Wall can be repaired only during Day. Each Meteorite Piece repairs one damage to the Wall. Unless the quantity of Meteorite Pieces is insufficient to fully repair a Wall, it is not possible to partially repair a wall.

Hunting during Day does not affect the Wall health.

The Mage Tower can be activated, but the Healing Enchantment and Sunsphere Enchantment have no effect during Day.

The Hunter can choose to enter Night from this phase.

Night

The Hunter can enter this phase by choosing to Defend Fort from Day phase.

The Night can be divided into 5 smaller parts, each with a specific length measured in hunt. The total length of the parts is 130 hunts. Failing to catch a Nightmancer Mouse will extend the length of Night by 3 hunts. An active Mage Tower with the Sunsphere Enchantment will reduce the hunts until the end of Night by 2 after every hunt.

The sub-phases, in order, are:

  • Twilight - 35 hunt long
Weremice are abundant
Shadow traps are recommended
  • Midnight - 25 hunt long
Weremice are still the most abundant mice, but Cosmic Critter begin to appear
Shadow traps are still recommended
  • Pitch - 10 hunt long
Weremice and Cosmic Critter are found in equal measure
Arcane and Shadow traps are both effective
  • Utter Darkness - 25 hunt long
Cosmic Critter are now the most abundant mice, but Weremice may still appear
Arcane traps are recommended
  • First Light - 35 hunt long
Cosmic Critter are abundant
Arcane traps are recommended

During Night, the Wall can receive damage under certain circumstances:

  • Failure to Catch without mouse pillage (FTC) = 3 damage
  • Failure to Catch with mouse pillage (Red box FTC) = 5 damage
  • Failure to Attract (FTA) = 5 damage
  • Failure to catch Nightfire Mouse = 10 damage
  • Encountering Battering Ram Mouse = 15 damage

The damage can be reduced by Moat.

The Hunter can choose to Retreat to Day from this phase.

The Hunter will be transfered to Day if the Wall health drops to 0.

The Hunter will be transfered to Dawn if they progress though all sub-phases with their Wall not completely broken.

Dawn

The Hunter can enter this phase by progressing through the Night.

A Damage Multiplier is in effect during this phase. Each catch of the Monster of the Meteor will increase the multiplier by an additional 100%. Damage from encountering Battering Ram Mouse is not multiplied.
The damage can be reduced by Moat, but the reduction applies after the multiplier.

Catch Anger Level Damage Multiplier FTC Damage FTA/Red Box FTC Damage
0 Irritated 100% 3 5
1 Annoyed 200% 6 10
2 Vexed 300% 9 15
3 Irate 400% 12 20
4 Cross 500% 15 25
5 Angry 600% 18 30
6 Maddened 700% 21 35
7 Ranting 800% 24 40
8 Raving 900% 27 45

13 Seething 1400% 42 70
14 Frenzied 1500% 45 75
15 Cheesed Off 1600% 48 80
16-49 Cheesed Off Damage multiplier continues to increase by 100%
with each Monster of the Meteor catch
and damage increases accordingly
50-99 totally cheesed off and really annoyed that you would come here and do this and it is absolutely so horrible that you would be so callous and mean and they just hate you so much and will forever remember this moment in time where you offended them so greatly! Damage multiplier continues to increase by 100%
with each Monster of the Meteor catch
and damage increases accordingly
100+ reaching powers of OVER 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damage multiplier continues to increase by 100%
with each Monster of the Meteor catch
and damage increases accordingly

The Hunter will be transfered to Day if the Wall health drops to 0.

The Hunter can choose to enter Heart of the Meteor from this phase. Doing so will consume a Fort Rox Portal Projector and add a Ruined Portal Projector to the inventory.

Heart of the Meteor

The Hunter can enter this phase from Dawn.

The Hunter's Fort defenses have no effect in this phase. Tower Mana cannot be armed while hunting in this phase.

The Heart of the Meteor's power will be depleted with each attraction, to the point where it is a guaranteed catch on the 10th attraction.

Hunt Strategy

Hunting Tips by Larry

Hello there, hunter!

Welcome to Fort Rox, recently under siege thanks to the commotion caused by the fallen meteor, the citizens here need your help to fight off the mice that have begun to overrun the area.

During the day, things are a lot calmer and the mice will listen to reason, making them vulnerable to Law traps. You will also be able to use this time to build up your resources and defenses in preparation for the attack. You will need to build the Basic Wall before you will be ready to defend your fort.

The day might feel like a walk in the park, however, don't get too comfortable. At night, things start to get a little... "hairier"...

You are gonna have to do your best to hold off the assault on Varmint Valley throughout the night. The night lasts 130 hunts. As you hunt through the night, different types of mice will begin to appear. Make sure you pay attention to the time of night and adjust your trap setup accordingly.

Mice will damage your wall if you fail to capture them and some even if you do capture them! If your wall gets destroyed, you will be forced to retreat until day, where you can rebuild and try again.

Survive the night and make it to dawn where the toughest mice lie in wait!
