"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 Type is an attribute of weapons that determines their effectiveness against certain mice, and an attribute of mice determining their susceptibility to such weapons. The effectiveness of weapons of particular power type may differ against certain mice or in certain locations.

There are currently six different power types:

Bases do not have Power Types. The Power Type of a trap is determined by the weapon component.

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