Overview

Claw Shot City is a location in the Varmint Valley region requiring a minimum rank of Lord/Lady and the Whisker Woods Clearing Map Piece to enter. Mice are unable to steal a Hunters' supplies in Claw Shot City.

The mice found in Claw Shot City are determined by whether or not Hunters have an open Wanted Poster. Sealed Wanted Posters can be found as loot from the Bounty Hunter Mouse.

A Law weapon is required to successfully capture the mice found in Claw Shot City.

Wanted Poster

Wanted Posters are found in Sealed Wanted Posters dropped by the Bounty Hunter Mouse. They are an Area-Specific Treasure Map. Unlike other Treasure Maps, only 2 Hunters may work each Wanted Poster,

Sheriff's Badge Charms can be armed to guarantee that the Bounty Hunter Mouse will drop a Sealed Wanted Poster.

There are 6 groups of mice found on Wanted Posters and which group a Hunter finds is completely random. Each Wanted Poster contains one Ringleader and 4 Accomplices. It does not matter where the Accomplices are caught, but all 4 must be captured before the Ringleader can be encountered.

Mice

All mice in this area are from the Wild Bunch group and are weak only to Law weapons.
The Bounty Hunter Mouse is the only source for Sealed Wanted Posters, which contain one of six varieties of Wanted Poster.
All Ringleader mice and most Accomplice mice require that a Hunter have an open Wanted Poster before they can be attracted.
Each Wanted Poster contains one Ringleader and 4 Accomplices and all 4 Accomplices must be captured before the Ringleader can be encountered.
The Gang encountered in Claw Shot City is determined by which of the six varieties of Wanted Poster is open.

Bounty Hunter Mouse

Hunters must capture a Bounty Hunter Mouse to obtain a Sealed Wanted Poster. Sealed Wanted Posters contain Wanted Posters, which are required to attract most Accomplice mice and all Ringleader mice. Sealed Wanted Posters are not a guaranteed loot drop.

The Bounty Hunter Mouse can only be attracted if Hunters do not have a Sealed Wanted Poster in their inventory and do not have an open Wanted Poster. Hunters must claim the Bounty Reward to close out a completed Wanted Poster if they wish to encounter another Bounty Hunter Mouse.

Sheriff's Badge Charms can be armed to guarantee that a captured Bounty Hunter Mouse will drop a Sealed Wanted Poster.

Cheese Preference and Loot

Standard Cheese and SUPER|brie+ will attract all mice in Claw Shot City.
SUPER|brie+ will improve the attraction rate of the Pyrite Mouse, but is not required.

Mice with Special Requirements

• Relic Hunter Mouse – This mouse visits the Claw Shot City 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 Claw Shot City 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

The mice found in Claw Shot City are determined by whether Hunters have an open Wanted Poster.

To acquire a Wanted Poster, Hunters must capture a Bounty Hunter Mouse. These mice drop the Sealed Wanted Poster which contains one of six types of Wanted Poster. The Gang found on a Wanted Poster cannot be determined before opening a Sealed Wanted Poster, so Hunters seeking to hunt a specific Ringleader may be required to obtain and open several Sealed Wanted Posters.

When working a Wanted Poster, Hunters must capture the 4 Accomplice mice before the Ringleader mouse can be encountered.

The Bounty Reward from a completed Wanted Poster must be claimed before the Bounty Hunter Mouse can be encountered again.

Hunting Tips by Larry

Howdy, y'all!

This here town is chock full of the roughest, rudest and most downright reckless mice I've ever encountered! It seems like none of the old traps can bring them to heel, and they're just running roughshod over all an' sundry!

Your trap will need to be a new kind of tough to bring Law and order to this burg - be sure to visit the Trapsmith and get yourself a new trap!

The local Marshall is run ragged protecting the good people of Claw Shot City, and is turning brave hunters into honorary Sheriffs so that they can help! He's issued a series of bounties for the worst of the Wild Bunch gangs, and I've got a stack of them right h- oh, dagnabit! That Bounty Hunter Mouse just stole off with them! Well, you'd better catch him and get them back! Bring down that Bounty Hunter, reclaim the Wanted Posters, and corner the lawless gangs that run Claw Shot City!

You'll need to rustle up the gang's crew first before you can smoke out the ringleader of each gang - it's a good thing you can bring a friend along as your Deputy to help track down these lawless mice!

If you're finding it tough riding, try out the Prospector's Charms for a helpful power boost, or take a gander at the Sheriff's Badge Charm in the Charm Marketplace to really stick it to that Bounty Hunter Mouse!!

You'll be rewarded Fool's Gold for completing each Wanted Poster, which is pretty valuable around these parts! You can use it to purchase a stronger Law power type trap at the Trapsmith. As more shop owners and citizens move into the city to help it grow and expand, more goodies are sure to come, so collect as much Fool's Gold as you can!

Good luck, and good huntin', pardner! As for me, I'm gonna lay low in the local saloon... It's almost high noon, and those mice sure are hungry!
