Points are gained by catching mice. The heavier the mouse is, the less points it is worth. Since a smaller mouse is faster, it is more challenging to catch, and therefore worth more points. In certain areas, the mice might steal points if you attract but fail to catch them, including the [[Harbour]], the [[Mountain]], the [[Laboratory]], the [[Mousoleum]] and the [[Training Grounds]]. Losing points does not affect rank progress and thus will not cause a Hunter to drop in [[Hunter's Title#Rank Advancement|rank]].

Points measure both the quality and quantity of mice a hunter has caught. Being marked with a high number of points is a sign of a truly experienced hunter!

Points are gained by catching mice. Each mouse caught is worth a specific number of points. The breed of the mouse determines the amount of points it is worth. Previously, the points also differed based on the weight of the mouse caught (the heavier the mouse, the less points). Mice might steal points if you attract but fail to catch them in most locations. Losing points does not affect rank progress and thus will not cause a Hunter to drop in rank.

50 points are also awarded each time you sound the Hunter's Horn. You gain 25 extra points for each hunter in your hunting group at your location and yet to sound the horn, up to a maximum of 250 points. Points can also be gained from Research obtained as loot, or found inside Mysterious Boxes, as well as from opening a Tome of Wisdom.

Trap components used to have a minimum points requirement. Should a hunter fail to meet the requirement they will not be able to purchase, arm or craft the component. Since 17 October 2018, Trap components (except Timesplit Dissonance Trap, Celestial Dissonance Trap and Chrome Celestial Dissonance Trap) no longer have a minimum points requirement and have a minimum Title requirement instead.

Points determine your rank on the scoreboard. It is a common misconception that points determine the progress at which a Hunter advances to higher Hunter's Titles: a Hunter's Wisdom actually determines the title progression for a Hunter.
