This article is about the hunting location. For the Map Piece, see S.S. Huntington IV (item).
S.S. Huntington IV
Region: Rodentia
Minimum Rank: Legendary
Travel Requirement: S.S. Huntington IV map piece
Recommended Power Type: Hydro
Number of Mice: 19
Shops: Cartographer
Cheese Shoppe
Trapsmith
Lose Gold: Yes
Lose Points: Yes
Lose Cheese: Yes
Release Date: 4 June 2009
This fine vessel has been granted permission by the King to sail the open ocean east of Gnawnia, and has been upgraded with hundreds of thousands of interlocking hull fragments, allowing it to breach even the dangerous Iceberg with ease.

Overview

The S.S. Huntington IV is a location in the Rodentia region requiring a minimum rank of Legendary and having crafted the S.S. Huntington IV map piece to enter. Mice in this location may steal points, gold, or multiple pieces of cheese if not captured.

Hydro weapons are strongly recommended when hunting aboard the S.S. Huntington IV.

Hunters will need to locate the Compass, Sextant, and Telescope from mice aboard the S.S. Huntington IV in order to craft the Ocean Navigation Kit. The Ocean Navigation Kit is required to travel to the Tribal Isles locations.

Crafting the S.S. Huntington IV Map Piece

Hunters require the S.S. Huntington IV map piece in order to travel to the S.S. Huntington IV. There are two ways in which this map piece can be crafted, but each requires the same crafting items and will cost the same amount of gold.

Simplified Formula

This single-step recipe creates the S.S. Huntington IV map piece required for travelling to the S.S. Huntington IV location.

Formula 1: S.S. Huntington IV
Item Item
Qty
Item
Cost
Item Source
Ship Blueprints 1 N/A
King's Reserve Bubbleh 1 210,000
Bolt of Cloth 70 3,000
(210,000 total)
Rope 100 600
(60,000 total)
Scrap Metal 18 N/A
Splintered Wood 900 150
(135,000 total)
Total 615,000 gold
Recipe costs represent Shoppe prices only. The cost of items obtained through other sources will affect the total cost of crafting.

Unchristened Ship Formulas

This two step recipe creates the S.S. Huntington IV map piece required for travelling to the S.S. Huntington IV location.
Before MouseHunt updated to Version 3.0 on 8 June 2010, Legendary Hunters were encouraged to follow Formula 2.1 and 2.2 to craft the S.S. Huntington map piece in order to ensure crafting success.

Formula 2.1: Unchristened Ship
Item Item
Qty
Item
Cost
Item Source
Ship Blueprints 1 N/A
Bolt of Cloth 70 3,000
(210,000 total)
Rope 100 600
(60,000 total)
Scrap Metal 18 N/A
Splintered Wood 900 150
(135,000 total)
Total 405,000 gold
Recipe costs represent Shoppe prices only. The cost of items obtained through other sources will affect the total cost of crafting.

If Hunters use Formula 2.1 to craft the Unchristened Ship, crafting of S.S. Huntington IV map piece is completed with the following formula:

Formula 2.2: Christened Ship
Unchristened Ship 1 405,000
King's Reserve Bubbleh 1 210,000
Total 615,000 gold
Recipe costs represent Shoppe prices only. The cost of items obtained through other sources will affect the total cost of crafting.

S.S. Huntington IV Mice

All mice aboard the S.S. Huntington IV 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 IV 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

Hunting Strategy

Mice aboard the S.S. Huntington IV 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 IV, 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 IV in order to craft the Ocean Navigation Kit.

Adventure Book

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

Library Assignments

Tournaments

S.S. Huntington IV mice are worth points during some Tournaments.

Treasure Maps

Many mice in the S.S. Huntington IV are often found on Relic Hunter Treasure Maps.
Tribal and Shelder Treasure Maps require capturing mice found aboard the S.S. Huntington IV, in the Jungle of Dread, and in Dracano. This map requires catching a Shelder Mouse.

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

  • 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..?
A particularly icy Festive Comet has crashed into the Rodentia Ocean, obliterating the S.S. Huntington III! Fortunately, the King's Royal Astronomers observed that the comet was off-course and would land in the ocean instead of its usual landing spot near the castle. This allowed the King's Royal Engineers to construct a replacement ship ahead of time with the ample supply of Splintered Wood in the King's Royal Sawmill. You can find the new and improved S.S. Huntington IV just north of its previous location.
