S.S. Huntington III Mice

All mice aboard the S.S. Huntington III are part of the Aquatic Order, except the Crown Collector and Nibbler mice, which are part of the Indigenous Mice group.
Hydro weapons are the most effective weapons for capturing mice in this location, but all mice found here also have a weakness to Physical and Tactical weapons.

Cheese Preference and Loot

Standard Cheeses will attract all mice aboard the S.S. Huntington III except the Cook Mouse
SUPER|brie+ is required to attract the Cook Mouse and improves the attraction rate of the Shelder Mouse.
Galleon Gouda reduces the mouse population and provides the higest attraction rate of the Shelder Mouse,

Mice with Special Requirements

• Relic Hunter Mouse – This mouse visits the S.S. Huntington III on an irregular basis and is attracted to Standard Cheese and SUPER|brie+. 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 aboard the S.S. Huntington III 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

Mice aboard the S.S. Huntington III are primarily weak to Hydro weapons, though Hunters can use Physical and Tactical weapons to lesser effect.

Standard Cheese will attract all mice found aboard the S.S. Huntington III, except the Cook Mouse
The Cook Mouse is only attracted to SUPER|brie+
The Shelder Mouse is extremely rare regardless of bait used, but SUPER|brie+ provides a greater attraction, and Galleon Gouda provides the best attraction. Galleon Gouda is found as a reward inside Shelder Treasure Chests.

The Ocean Navigation Kit is required to travel to the Tribal Isles region. Hunters must find the Compass, Sextant, and Telescope while hunting aboard the S.S. Huntington III in order to craft the Ocean Navigation Kit.

Adventure Book

Hunters can Navigate the Rodentia Ocean by crafting the Ocean Navigation Kit.

Hunting tips by Larry

Welcome aboard, MouseHunter!

What a lovely job you did constructing this vessel. . . it’s a pity that it’s overrun with mice already.

If you want to clean up a bit, you should know that many of the mice here live in the open water. As such, you will find them especially weak to Hydro traps, which you can buy from the Trapsmith onboard.

If you're looking to sail far off into the ocean, you'll need to build yourself an Ocean Navigation Kit. I'm sure some of the mice here will have stolen the necessary components at some point or other...

History and Trivia

• 4 June 2009: This location was introduced as the S.S. Huntington II.

• Two days after MouseHunters noticed that the ship in the map of the Harbour was changed to a wreck, this location was discovered. According to developers, the location was named "Huntington because it has the word hunting in the name. It's named as the second because the first one that was in the Harbour sank."

• 24 May 2012: With the introduction of the Iceberg, the ship was renamed to the S.S. Huntington III

• The previous name, S.S. Huntington II, came with the following description:

This fine vessel has been granted permission by the King to sail the open ocean east of Gnawnia. Who knows what exotic hunting grounds are out there just waiting to be discovered..?
