A trap is necessary to catch mice. They are available at all Trapsmiths and occasionally at Ronza's Traveling Shoppe.

Trap Descriptions

Component 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.
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 effect help reduce the likelihood of cheese turning stale.
Possible cheese effect combinations:
Extremely Stale, Very Stale, Stale, No Effect, Fresh, Very Fresh, Extremely Fresh, Insanely Fresh, Ultimately Fresh, Über Fresh

Power Type Info

The most straightforward type of damage a trap weapon can inflict. It is effective against a variety of mice.
Shadow is a magical type of damage that is effective against ghostly breeds of mice.
Built upon research of battle strategy, these traps are especially strong against mice trained in the art of war.
