The Nerg Tribe use the tall grass for camouflage and the sturdy trees as defensive positions making their village hard to infiltrate. Use of a Tactical trap is highly recommended when hunting for the Nerg.

Overview

Nerg Plains is a hunting location in Tribal Isles region.

It requires the rank of Legendary and the Ocean Navigation Kit to access.

The Hunter's goal in this location is to collect Yellow Pepper Seed to progress further into Jungle of Dread and Dracano.

Mice

Most mice here are part of The Nerg Tribe mouse group.

Standard Cheese attracts mice that drop Savoury Vegetables, which can be used to craft Gumbo to attract mice that drop Yellow Pepper Seed.

Tactical power type is very effective against mice here.
Other types should not be used.

Hunting Strategy

Hunting Tips by Larry

Oh, it's you! I can barely see you over the tall grass! The terrain here makes it quite easy to hide, something the mice of the Nerg Tribe take full advantage of. It's not uncommon for the Nerg to spring an ambush and pillage your supplies of cheese.

Members of the Nerg Tribe mostly keep to themselves, but are very territorial. They attack enemy tribes or hunters the moment they step foot on their corner of the island. To be successful hunting here you will need either Gouda or SUPER|brie+ as bait, along with a strong Tactical weapon.

It seems the Nerg enjoy farming. They often carry batches of unique Savoury Vegetables, which they combine with Curds and Whey over heat to make a gooey mess called Gumbo Cheese. I do not recommend eating any yourself, as most humans have a hard time smelling it, let alone keeping it down. The Nerg leaders are the most territorial of all, so don't equip your Gumbo Cheese lightly!

Now MouseHunter, bait your trap, lay low in the tall grass and keep your nose keen for the scent of Savoury Vegetables!
