Power Type

"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."

Power Type is an important attribute of weapons which determines overall trap effectiveness against different breeds of mice. In MouseHunt 2.0 it also used to refer to an attribute of the different types of mice that roam the land, which in MouseHunt 3.0 was replaced roughly with Mouse Group. As bases do not have Power Types attributes, the Power Type of a trap is typically determined by the weapon component, although the Nanny and Forgotten charms can be used to change the type. The effectiveness of a weapon of a particular power type varies depending on the mice and its location. That a trap works effectively or very effectively against a mouse in one location does not necessarily imply the same in other locations.

Many hunting locations have a preponderance of mice weak to a given Power Type. For example, in the Mousoleum, mice weak to Shadow power dominate. As such, certain weapon Power Types are more suited, and often required for successful hunting, in certain locations.

Power Types

There are currently 10 different power types, as listed below. Players can follow the respective weapons or mice links for a list of that particular type of weapons or mice.

Arcane

"Traps utilizing Arcane damage come from sources shrouded in mystery. The strength of Arcane damage increases proportionally against The Forgotten Mice, making the traps especially effective in the Catacombs."

Arcane weapons are of average to high power as compared to other weapons of similar requirements. Indigenous Mice and The Shadow Clan have a degree of weakness to Arcane weapons, but they work best against The Forgotten Mice and Balack's Banished.

Please refer to the individual trap pages for additional purchasing information, including trapsmith locations and refund amounts.

To compare weapons having the same attribute value among each other, start sorting with the least significant attribute. For example, sorting by luck, then by power type will show the weapons sorted by luck within power types.

Forgotten

"Forgotten" redirects here. For other uses, see Forgotten (disambiguation).

"Long before the castle was built, the lands of Gnawnia were quite a different place littered with hunting strategies that have not been spoken of since. Mice that utilize these long-forgotten tactics are amongst the most difficult to catch."

The Eclipse Mouse, Acolyte Mouse, The Forgotten Mice, and the Fungal Fiends have a degree of weakness to Forgotten weapons. Balack's Banished have a particular weakness to Forgotten weapons.

Forgotten Charms can be used to convert any other power type trap into the Forgotten type.

Parental

"Traps utilizing Parental power specialize in administering discipline on ill-behaving mice. These traps are firm, but fair, never harming the mouse but making sure it thinks long and hard about the trouble it caused."

The Limited Edition Nannybot is the only weapon with the Parental power type. It was released as part of MouseHunt's Second Birthday Event to catch the Terrible Twos Mouse, which was particularly weak to this power type. Indigenous Mice, the Forest Guild and the Aquatic Order have a degree of weakness to this power type.

Nanny Charms can be used to convert any other power type trap into the Parental type.

Shadow

"Shadow is a magical type of damage that is effective against ghostly breeds of mice."

Shadow weapons are generally low powered, especially when compared against other weapons of similar requirements. Thus. even though many mouse groups have a certain degree of weakness to Shadow weapons, they are best used against The Shadow Clan, The Dreaded Horde, Balack's Banished, and the mice in the Sand Dunes and Sand Crypts.

Shadow Charms can be used to convert any other power type trap into the Shadow type.

Please refer to the individual trap pages for additional purchasing information, including trapsmith locations and refund amounts.

A list of all traps can be found here.

Tactical

"Built upon research of battle strategy, these traps are especially strong against mice trained in the art of war."

Tactical weapons are of average power as compared to other weapons of similar requirements. Indigenous Mice, Digby Dirt Dwellers and the Aquatic Order have a degree of weakness to tactical weapons, but they work best against the Forest Guild, the Followers of Furoma and The Nerg Tribe.

Please refer to the individual trap pages for additional purchasing information, including trapsmith locations and refund amounts.
