Trap Descriptions
Component Stats
- The overall strength of the component. Traps with higher power are more likely to catch mice.
- Power Type (see below)
- Mice have specific weaknesses to certain Power Types. Using the appropriate weapon in the appropriate area is a critical part of any hunter’s strategy.
- The power bonus of both weapon and base are added together and then applied to the total power of the trap, increasing its power.
- The attraction bonus boosts the attraction power of the bait being used increasing the odds of a mouse approaching a hunter’s trap.
- Some components are designed to offer small chances of catching a mouse regardless of the mouse’s strength. It is not uncommon for lucky traps to grant hunters the ability to catch mice that seem far too powerful for their trap.
- Any time a mouse is not attracted to a trap during a hunt there is a chance for the cheese to turn stale. Some components are built using harmful chemicals that increase the odds of spoiling bait. Traps with a fresh effect help reduce the likelihood of cheese turning stale.
- Possible cheese effect combinations:
- Extremely Stale, Very Stale, Stale, No Effect, Fresh, Very Fresh, Extremely Fresh, Insanely Fresh, Ultimately Fresh, Über Fresh
Power Type Info
- The most straightforward type of damage a trap weapon can inflict. It is effective against a variety of mice.
- Shadow is a magical type of damage that is effective against ghostly breeds of mice.
- Built upon research of battle strategy, these traps are especially strong against mice trained in the art of war.
