Hydra Mouse

You : 2 hands, 1 trap, a bit of gnarled cheese
Hydra Mouse : 3 heads, 6 eyes, lots of teeth..
You kind of figure why this is the hardest mouse to catch at the Lagoon. 
Catching one now is a matter of pride. And of course, to complete your wall of mice.. 
It MAY drop a much needed Ship Blueprint (BP for short) for crafting the Huntington II. You can now buy the blueprint at the Catacombs if you have more money than patience..
The Hydra Mouse may also drop scrap metal..
Suggested Trap : Acro/DDB or your luckiest device (Ronza's Partybot or Snow Barrage)
Suggested Cheese : Gnarled (sigh - shortage of Gnarled Potions)
Show me your stats, people..
Mine so far :
Phillip Radford sounded the Hunter's Horn, but my efforts were fruitless. A Hydra mouse ate a piece of cheese without setting off my trap. 
The power of this mouse crippled my courage, setting me back 2,658 points.
Hurrah! Got it in my FIRST Hydra catch.. Was using Partybot/Dehydration Base/Gnarled
I checked my trap and found that I had caught a mouse! I caught a 3 oz. Hydra mouse from the Lagoon worth 9,638 points and 5,763 gold. 
The mouse also dropped the following loot:
1 ship blueprints.
(trivia : Hydra artwork is by a fan. A First for Mousehunt. Opens up a whole lot of opportunities for you creative artists out there)

You know, I read the boards just now and apparently, they will be selling the blueprints for the ship so you don't have to catch the hydra.

I can't remember, will the acronym work ok over there? I'm going over as soon as I get it (3 more scraps :P) to get a harpy :)

75% GM, Giving it a shot, bored like, massively in Dojo... Sigh. First Catch: Blow the Gnarled, weakling Shaman. Good luck!

Jester Nim said...

@gabe, well, the other guide said the acro was good here. It failed miserably for me..

I survived on the PartyBot. Few of other comment posts here also did it with the PB. Ok, one DDB did it too..

But no Acro.. Hmm..

Also, the acronym SUCKS for hydras, don't do it xD

I caught mine the other day, but no blueprints, i just bought it instead. Hunting there now. Got a pinchy xD lol

Do you see the new physical mice and hydros? I'm not looking forward to them, they're all really powerful mice. :)

Daniel said...

Just some info... According to Dave, one of the game developers, the best trap you can get to hunt the Hydra mouse is the DDB. Anyway, here’s the thing- later on you will need the DDB anyway; it’s necessary to hunt in the Tribal Islands AND it’s useful for crafting an even stronger trap. That means that owning the Drillbot now is a good investment for the future. You’ll either buy it now or buy it later. Hope this info helps. Good luck!

I`m using Explosive Toboggan Ride, Runic Base, with Gnarled Cheese. Caught it a few times. No blue prints. Once I get the money I`ll just go buy it in the catacombs.

Andrew said...

Guys I know from experience that the best way to catch a Hydra is using the wicked gnarled cheese which you get from the Mad Scientist mouse at the Great Gnarled Tree. He drops a potion and you use that. Then head to the Lagoon and hunt away. CAUTION!!! Wait till you have at least 30 or more wicked gnarled cheese as it is a tough place to hunt even for a GRANDMASTER. Im using a explosive toboggan ride with gingerbread base and obviously wicked gnarled cheese and ive caught 3 in a row.
