== Overview ==
 +
The [[Harbour]] is a location in the [[Gnawnia]] region requiring a minimum rank of [[Initiate]] to enter.<br/>
 +
The [[Harbour]] is the first area Hunters will access where mice can steal gold, points, or extra cheese and where they can visit a [[Cartographer]] and purchase a [[Treasure Map]].<br/>
 +
 
 +
Hunters accessing the [[Harbour]] for the first time will only have access to [[Physical]] weapons, but the mice here have a weakness to all [[Power Type]]s, '''except''' the [[Pirate Mouse]], [[Barmy Gunner]], [[Bilged Boatswain]], [[Cabin Boy]], [[Corrupt Commodore]], and [[Dashing Buccaneer]] which have a weakness only to [[Hydro]], [[Physical]] and [[Tactical]] weapons.
 +
 
 +
Hunters must capture a [[Pirate Mouse]] to obtain a pirate bounty.  When Hunters begin the search for the mice listed on the crew manifest provided by the [[Pirate Mouse]], the '''Pirate Crew''' mice are added to the mouse population of the [[Harbour]]. Capturing all 3 mice listed on the crew manifest will reward the player with booty from the pirate bounty. Hunters must claim 5 '''Pirate Bounties''' which each reward [[A Map Scrap]] used to complete the [[Calm Clearing Map Piece]].
 +
 
 +
==Pirate Bounties==
 +
The [[Harbour]] HUD tracks the Hunter's open '''Pirate Bounty''' and progress on claiming the [[Calm Clearing Map Piece]].
 +
 
 +
*When Hunters first enter the [[Harbour]], the HUD shows the following message:
 +
::'''Pirate ships are besieging the Harbour!'''
 +
::Catch a Pirate Mouse to reveal the crew manifest and recover stolen Map Scraps!
 +
 
 +
:It also includes an image of a blank map in five pieces.
 +
 
 +
*Capturing a [[Pirate Mouse]] changes the HUD to the following:
 +
::'''The Pirate Mouse sang like a canary!'''
 +
::He gave you clues on how to find his pirate crew…
 +
::'''Begin Search'''
 +
 
 +
:Selecting '''Begin Search''' will reveal the ship crew manifest showing the 3 '''Pirate Crew''' mice that must be captured to complete the bounty.  All 5 '''Pirate Crew''' mice will be added to the mouse population and can be attracted until the final mouse on the manifest is caught.  The 5 mice are then removed from the mouse population and will not return until Hunters begin another bounty. The [[Pirate Mouse]] will continue to appear in the mouse population, but will not provide a new bounty until any open bounties are claimed.
 +
 
 +
*An open bounty shows the following on the HUD:
 +
::'''Defeat the crew of [Ship Name]!'''
 +
::3 of these 5 mice will appear on the bounty:
 +
::*[[Barmy Gunner]]
 +
::*[[Bilged Boatswain]]
 +
::*[[Cabin Boy]]
 +
::*[[Corrupt Commodore]]
 +
::*[[Dashing Buccaneer]]
 +
::A chest and '''Claim Booty''' that is greyed out until all 3 mice are captured.
  
−
== Shops ==
+
*Capturing a mouse on the bounty will check it off on the HUD and creates a journal entry:
−
These are the shops that can be found in the Harbour:
+
::'''I caught a member of the pirate crew!'''
−
*[[General Store#Harbour General Store|General Store]]
+
::It looks like this one was the ship's '''[crew position]'''. I found some clues about where they're hiding their ill-gotten loot!
−
*[[Cartographer]]
 
  
−
== Harbour Mice ==
+
*Catching the last crew member creates a journal entry:
−
{| border="1" cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" style="margin:0 20px; font-size:90%; text-align:center; border-collapse:collapse;" class="wikitable sortable"
+
::'''I caught a member of the pirate crew!'''
 +
::It looks like this one was the ship's '''[crew position]'''.
 +
::This was the last member of the crew - time to loot their ship's pirate booty!
 +
 
 +
*Capturing the final mouse will highlight the '''Claim Booty''' button on the HUD.  Claiming the bounty opens a pop-up showing its contents and creates a journal entry:
 +
::'''I captured the crew of [Ship Name], and plundered the ship's Pirate Booty!
 +
::I looted:
 +
::'''[List of bounty loot]'''
 +
::With the crew defeated, the King's Coast Guard quickly scuttled the rogue vessel, sending it to the bottom of the ocean.
 +
::There are always more pirate crews to hunt!
 +
 
 +
*The first 5 bounties claimed will reward [[A Map Scrap]] that fills in the incomplete map in the HUD.
 +
:Each bounty will also reward:
 +
:*1,000 gold
 +
:*1,000 points
 +
:*1 - 3 pieces of a [[Standard Cheese]]
 +
 
 +
*Once all 5 map scraps have been recovered, the '''Assemble Map''' button is highlighted and Hunters can then assemble the [[Calm Clearing Map Piece]] and gain access to the [[Calm Clearing]] location.
 +
:Because this method for obtaining the [[Calm Clearing Map Piece]] replaced an older method, Hunters who already own the [[Calm Clearing Map Piece]] will see a mouse-over on the HUD that reads:
 +
::'''Greetings, experienced Hunter!'''
 +
::While you've already found the path to the Calm Clearing, there are still pirates holding treasure nearby!
 +
 
 +
==Mice==
 +
Almost all mice in this area are from the [[Indigenous Mice]] group and are weak to all [[Power Type]]s.<br/>
 +
The [[Pirate Mouse]] and '''Pirate Crew''' mice are part of the [[Aquatic Order]] and [[Hydro]] traps are very effective against them.  [[Physical]] and [[Tactical]] traps are of normal effectiveness. All other [[Power Type]]s are ineffective.<br/>
 +
 
 +
===[[Pirate Mouse]] and Pirate Crew mice===
 +
Hunters must capture a [[Pirate Mouse]] in order to obtain a crew manifest that allows them to complete a '''Pirate Bounty'''.  Opening a '''Pirate Bounty''' adds 5 '''Pirate Crew''' mice to the mouse population.<br>
 +
'''Pirate Crew''' mice are very plentiful while '''Pirate Bounties''' are active, but cannot be encountered without an open, uncompleted bounty.<br/>
 +
Completing a bounty removes the '''Pirate Crew''' mice from the mouse population and claiming it will allow the [[Pirate Mouse]] to provide a new bounty.
 +
 
 +
===Cheese Preference and Loot===
 +
[[Standard Cheese]] attracts most mice in the [[Harbour]].<br/>
 +
[[White Cheddar Cheese]] will reduce the mouse population by repelling the [[Brown]], [[Grey]], and [[White]] mice.<br/>
 +
{{SB}} will attract all mice in the [[Harbour]].<br/>

* Highlighted mice are less than 1% of the population and are infrequently encountered in this location.

===Mice with Special Requirements===
−
* <sup>2</sup>Appeared as of 30 June 2010.
+
*[[Relic Hunter Mouse]] – This mouse visits the [[Harbour]] on an irregular basis. It does not consume cheese or charms. Hunters must have an [[Ancient Relic]] in their inventory to attract this mouse. The [[Ancient Relic]] will be taken by the [[Relic Hunter Mouse]] in exchange for a [[Relic Hunter Scroll Case]].  
 +
*[[M400]] – This mouse will sometimes be available in the [[Harbour]] when Hunters are actively working an [[M400 Hunting Research Assignment]]. It is attracted only to [[Fusion Fondue]] which will not attract any other mice. It drops a wide variety of loot.
  
 
== Hunting Strategy ==
 
== Hunting Strategy ==
−
As the Harbour is the first place where hunters can lose gold, points, and cheese, new hunters should avoid using a weak trap as this can be very costly. The hunter has several [[Trap Setup Options for the Harbour]]. At the minimum, the [[Mouse Trebuchet]] or [[Mouse Rocketine]] should be used. For those with the Mouse Rocketine, this location is a good place to start collecting [[Stale Cheese]] for future use as it is the only purchasable trap with the very stale [[cheese effect]].
+
Mice in the [[Harbour]] are attracted to [[Standard Cheese]]s.  All but six mice are weak to all [[Power Type]]s, '''except''' the [[Pirate Mouse]], [[Barmy Gunner]], [[Bilged Boatswain]], [[Cabin Boy]], [[Corrupt Commodore]], and [[Dashing Buccaneer]] which have a weakness only to [[Hydro]], [[Physical]] and [[Tactical]] weapons.
  
−
With a stronger trap such as the [[Swiss Army Mouse Trap]], hunting in the Harbour will be more worthwhile than spending time in the Town of Gnawnia or the Meadow. While almost any trap will be [[effective]] in this location, hunters are encouraged to move on to the [[Mountain]] once they have earned enough gold to purchase at least the Swiss Army Mouse Trap. Hunters should also avoid spending too much time in this location to trap rare mice as they can also be found in other locations.
+
Hunters who reach the [[Rank]] of [[Journeyman]] will be able to travel to the [[Mountain]] and the [[Calm Clearing]]. Hunters will need to collect 5 [[A Map Scrap]]s from '''Pirate Bounties''' to obtain the [[Calm Clearing Map Piece]] which allows travel to the [[Calm Clearing]].
  
−
Hunters who wish to craft the [[Dehydration Base]] should remember to purchase the [[Dehydration Base Blueprints]] and [[salt]] needed to avoid a return trip to the Harbour.
+
===[[Adventure Book]]===
 +
Hunters can [[Discover the Harbour's Secrets]] by capturing a [[Pirate Mouse]], earning bounties by defeating '''Pirate Crews''', and assembling a [[Calm Clearing Map Piece]].
  
−
=== Cheese Usage ===
+
===[[Library Assignments]]===
−
All standard cheese types can be used in this location. However, [[Brie]] with its combination of higher cost and higher attraction should be reserved for hunting rare mice or gathering points due to its lower profit when compared to the other standard cheeses. [[Swiss]] cheese should also be avoided when using a weak trap.
+
*[[M400 Bait Research Assignment]] - This assignment may require Hunters to track down specific items from [[Harbour]] mice in order to complete it.
 +
*[[M400 Hunting Research Assignment]] - This assignment may require capturing the [[M400]] in the [[Harbour]].
  
−
[[White Cheddar]] can be easily crafted from the ingredients available in the General Store, and it will keep the [[White]], [[Brown]], and [[Grey]] mice away from traps and increase overall profit by attracting only the more valuable breeds.
+
===[[Tournaments]]===
 +
[[Harbour]] mice are worth points during some [[Tournaments]].
 +
 
 +
===[[Treasure Map]]s===
 +
Many mice in the [[Harbour]] are often found on [[Gnawnia Treasure Map]]s and [[Relic Hunter Treasure Maps]].

The mice in this area are a little bit cheekier than those found in [[Town of Gnawnia]] or the [[Meadow]]. They may just steal some of your points or [[gold]] if you fail to catch them.

If you need to upgrade your [[trap]] or purchase more [[cheese]], you will have to travel back to town. If you’re in the market for a new trap, may I recommend a [[Rocketine]] trap or [[Mouse Trebuchet]]?

Be on the lookout for a particularly crafty [[Granite]] mouse that has been rumored to be carrying a torn piece of the map. Should you find this mouse and obtain the [[Whisker Woods Clearing Map Piece|map piece]], it will be added to your map, adding a new hunting location!
+
Be on the lookout for the dangerous pirate crews that are raiding the Harbour! Pirate mice are rumored to be carrying Map Scraps that could lead you to a new area. Capture a Pirate Mouse to reveal and capture their crew manifest and recover the Map Scraps, and then combine them to add a new hunting location to your map!

Full of fresh air and plenty of sunshine, the Harbour seems to attract the types of mice who boast of sea salt in their veins.

Overview

The Harbour is a location in the Gnawnia region requiring a minimum rank of Initiate to enter.
The Harbour is the first area Hunters will access where mice can steal gold, points, or extra cheese and where they can visit a Cartographer and purchase a Treasure Map.

Hunters accessing the Harbour for the first time will only have access to Physical weapons, but the mice here have a weakness to all Power Types, except the Pirate Mouse, Barmy Gunner, Bilged Boatswain, Cabin Boy, Corrupt Commodore, and Dashing Buccaneer which have a weakness only to Hydro, Physical and Tactical weapons.

Hunters must capture a Pirate Mouse to obtain a pirate bounty. When Hunters begin the search for the mice listed on the crew manifest provided by the Pirate Mouse, the Pirate Crew mice are added to the mouse population of the Harbour. Capturing all 3 mice listed on the crew manifest will reward the player with booty from the pirate bounty. Hunters must claim 5 Pirate Bounties which each reward A Map Scrap used to complete the Calm Clearing Map Piece.

Pirate Bounties

The Harbour HUD tracks the Hunter's open Pirate Bounty and progress on claiming the Calm Clearing Map Piece.

  • When Hunters first enter the Harbour, the HUD shows the following message:
Pirate ships are besieging the Harbour!
Catch a Pirate Mouse to reveal the crew manifest and recover stolen Map Scraps!
It also includes an image of a blank map in five pieces.
The Pirate Mouse sang like a canary!
He gave you clues on how to find his pirate crew…
Begin Search
Selecting Begin Search will reveal the ship crew manifest showing the 3 Pirate Crew mice that must be captured to complete the bounty. All 5 Pirate Crew mice will be added to the mouse population and can be attracted until the final mouse on the manifest is caught. The 5 mice are then removed from the mouse population and will not return until Hunters begin another bounty. The Pirate Mouse will continue to appear in the mouse population, but will not provide a new bounty until any open bounties are claimed.
  • An open bounty shows the following on the HUD:
Defeat the crew of [Ship Name]!
3 of these 5 mice will appear on the bounty:
A chest and Claim Booty that is greyed out until all 3 mice are captured.
  • Capturing a mouse on the bounty will check it off on the HUD and creates a journal entry:
I caught a member of the pirate crew!
It looks like this one was the ship's [crew position]. I found some clues about where they're hiding their ill-gotten loot!
  • Catching the last crew member creates a journal entry:
I caught a member of the pirate crew!
It looks like this one was the ship's [crew position].
This was the last member of the crew - time to loot their ship's pirate booty!
  • Capturing the final mouse will highlight the Claim Booty button on the HUD. Claiming the bounty opens a pop-up showing its contents and creates a journal entry:
I captured the crew of [Ship Name], and plundered the ship's Pirate Booty!
I looted:
[List of bounty loot]
With the crew defeated, the King's Coast Guard quickly scuttled the rogue vessel, sending it to the bottom of the ocean.
There are always more pirate crews to hunt!
  • The first 5 bounties claimed will reward A Map Scrap that fills in the incomplete map in the HUD.
Each bounty will also reward:
  • Once all 5 map scraps have been recovered, the Assemble Map button is highlighted and Hunters can then assemble the Calm Clearing Map Piece and gain access to the Calm Clearing location.
Because this method for obtaining the Calm Clearing Map Piece replaced an older method, Hunters who already own the Calm Clearing Map Piece will see a mouse-over on the HUD that reads:
Greetings, experienced Hunter!
While you've already found the path to the Calm Clearing, there are still pirates holding treasure nearby!

Mice

Almost all mice in this area are from the Indigenous Mice group and are weak to all Power Types.
The Pirate Mouse and Pirate Crew mice are part of the Aquatic Order and Hydro traps are very effective against them. Physical and Tactical traps are of normal effectiveness. All other Power Types are ineffective.

Pirate Mouse and Pirate Crew mice

Hunters must capture a Pirate Mouse in order to obtain a crew manifest that allows them to complete a Pirate Bounty. Opening a Pirate Bounty adds 5 Pirate Crew mice to the mouse population.
Pirate Crew mice are very plentiful while Pirate Bounties are active, but cannot be encountered without an open, uncompleted bounty.
Completing a bounty removes the Pirate Crew mice from the mouse population and claiming it will allow the Pirate Mouse to provide a new bounty.

Cheese Preference and Loot

Standard Cheese attracts most mice in the Harbour.
White Cheddar Cheese will reduce the mouse population by repelling the Brown, Grey, and White mice.
SUPER|brie+ will attract all mice in the Harbour.

Mice with Special Requirements

Hunting Strategy

Mice in the Harbour are attracted to Standard Cheeses. All but six mice are weak to all Power Types, except the Pirate Mouse, Barmy Gunner, Bilged Boatswain, Cabin Boy, Corrupt Commodore, and Dashing Buccaneer which have a weakness only to Hydro, Physical and Tactical weapons.

Hunters who reach the Rank of Journeyman will be able to travel to the Mountain and the Calm Clearing. Hunters will need to collect 5 A Map Scraps from Pirate Bounties to obtain the Calm Clearing Map Piece which allows travel to the Calm Clearing.

Adventure Book

Hunters can Discover the Harbour's Secrets by capturing a Pirate Mouse, earning bounties by defeating Pirate Crews, and assembling a Calm Clearing Map Piece.

Library Assignments

Tournaments

Harbour mice are worth points during some Tournaments.

Treasure Maps

Many mice in the Harbour are often found on Gnawnia Treasure Maps and Relic Hunter Treasure Maps.

Hunting tips by Larry

Welcome to the Harbour, MouseHunter! I just love that cool breeze that comes in off the ocean, don’t you?

The mice in this area are a little bit cheekier than those found in Town of Gnawnia or the Meadow. They may just steal some of your points or gold if you fail to catch them.

If you need to upgrade your trap or purchase more cheese, check out the many shops featured in the Harbour! If you’re in the market for a new trap, may I recommend a Rocketine trap or Mouse Trebuchet?

Be on the lookout for the dangerous pirate crews that are raiding the Harbour! Pirate mice are rumored to be carrying Map Scraps that could lead you to a new area. Capture a Pirate Mouse to reveal and capture their crew manifest and recover the Map Scraps, and then combine them to add a new hunting location to your map!

When you reach the next title of Journeyman/Journeywoman, you'll be able to move to another hunting ground. View your map to see what locations you have discovered.

Happy hunting!
