Weapons
Overview
A trap consists of two compulsory elements – one Weapon plus one Base. Charms, which enhance certain features of a trap, can optionally be armed by hunters ranked Journeyman and above.
The Weapon is the part of the trap that determines (with very few exceptions) the Power Type of the trap and does the actual catching of the mice. Weapons can combine with bases and charms to create specific effects for certain areas, for certain mice, or for certain loot. When Hunters begin working for the King they can choose to start hunting with either the High Tension Spring or the Tacky Glue Trap (Mouse Hot Tub if starting the game through the Mobile app). These are the most basic weapons available. As hunters capture more mice and earn more gold and experience, they will need to upgrade their traps with new weapons to increase their success in catching more powerful mice.
Obtaining Weapons
Weapons can be obtained in the following ways (not all weapons are available via all methods):
- Purchased at a variety of Trapsmiths
- Crafted using a combination of Blueprints, looted trap parts, and other items.
- Obtained as loot
Weapons cannot be traded with other players or sold on the Marketplace
Limited Edition Weapons, as with all limited edition items, cannot be obtained once the original opportunity for acquiring them has ended.
Using Weapons
A hunter's weapons, bases and charms appear in the Traps Inventory tab. A hunter can select which trap component is armed from the inventory page, from the primary Camp page, and also from a Trapsmith / Charm Shoppe just after purchasing a trap component. Additionally, each Hunter's Profile includes a status of how many trap components a hunter owns, split into lists of weapons and bases on the Items tab.
It is not possible to hunt without a weapon armed.
Weapon stats
- The overall strength of the component. Traps with higher power are more likely to catch mice.
- 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. Luck also increases the chance of a mouse dropping loot when caught.
- 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 cheese effect help reduce the likelihood of cheese turning stale.
- Special Effects
- Many weapons have special effects when used in certain locations, when paired with specific bases and/or charms, or against specific mice or mouse groups.
