The enticing blue water hypnotizes hunters, distracting them from the dangerous mice that take up residence nearby. The terrain that surrounds the Lagoon is extremely unsteady, comprised of jagged rocks and slick moss. High up in the trees that surround the Lagoon are the nests of Harpy mice who act as a plague to all hunters, stealing their cheese, gold and crippling their courage. Some mice here are not attracted to conventional bait. It is highly recommended that a hunter use Gnarled cheese when hunting at the Lagoon. |
Overview
The Lagoon is a location in the Whisker Woods region requiring a minimum rank of Grandmaster and the Map of the Lagoon to enter.
Mice in the Lagoon can steal gold, points, and cheese if not caught.
Mice in the Lagoon are primarily weak to Tactical, Hydro, and, to a lesser degree, Shadow weapons. Other power types may have some effectiveness, but are not likely to perform well.
Lagoon Mice
The majority of the mice found in the Lagoon are part of the Forest Guild.
The Hydra and Water Nymph mice are part of the Aquatic Order and the Black Widow Mouse is part of the Indigenous Mice group.
All mice in the Lagoon are weak to Hydro and Tactical weapons. With the exception of the Hydra and Water Nymph mice, the mice in the Lagoon are also weak to Shadow weapons.
The table below lists the most effective power type for each mouse, though other power types may be used with some success.
Cheese Preference and Loot
Gnarled Cheese is required to attract the majority of the mice found in the Lagoon.
Wicked Gnarly Cheese has the same attraction as Gnarled Cheese, but is required to attract the Silth Mouse
Standard Cheese and SUPER|brie+ attract very few mice in the Lagoon.
Mice with Special Requirements
- Relic Hunter Mouse – This mouse visits the Lagoon 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 Lagoon 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 tips by Larry
The waters of the Lagoon look dangerous! I hope you can swim!
You will find yourself having trouble attracting mice to your trap here, unless you use Gnarled Cheese. If you need more Gnarled cheese, head back to the Great Gnarled Tree to collect potions from the mice there. Or, if you want to attract the really valuable mice here, you might want to make some Wicked Gnarly Cheese. MouseHunters pursuing this cheese might benefit from consulting a certain Curious Chemist at the Great Gnarled Tree about ingredients.
Dwelling in the water is the fearsome Hydra mouse. The Hydra originates from the Ocean to the East, where it is known for being the cause of many shipwrecks. For this reason, the Hydra is known for dropping many nautical items. If you have your sea legs, try hunting the Hydra. You may just discover the mysteries of the ocean in the process.
Shops
There are no shops available in the Lagoon. Shops for the Whisker Woods region can be found in the Great Gnarled Tree.
