Arcane
Traps utilizing arcane damage come from sources shrouded in mystery. The strength of arcane damage increases proportionally against forgotten mice, making the traps especially effective in the Catacombs.
The Arcane power type of weapons is very effective against Forgotten type mice found in the Bristle Woods region. Mice of the Arcane power type are captured with normal effectiveness by weapons of the Forgotten power type.
