Nerg Plains

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

The Nerg Plains is the Tactical location of the Tribal Isles, it contains a number of mice that are unique to this location and only a Tactical trap will be truely effective here.

Many of the mice drop Savoury Vegetables in this location, which are crafted into Gumbo cheese that can either be used in Cape Clawed or in Nerg Plains to attract the three most powerful mice of this location, all of whom drop Yellow Pepper Seeds.

Requirements

To hunt in the Nerg Plains a Hunter must have:
    A Hunter’s Title of at least Legendary.
    Have crafted the Ocean Navigation Kit.
And it is recommended that a Hunter should have:
    A good Tactical Weapon.
    At least Gouda cheese.

Hunting Tips by Larry

Larry I can barely see you over the tall grass! The terrain here makes it quite easy to hide, something I think the mice of the Nerg Tribe take full advantage of! Watch your back, 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 do not hesitate to 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. You’ll find the mice of Nerg Plains to be resistant to any power type other than Tactical.

It seems the Nerg have an outside interest in farming. It is not uncommon to find them carrying some unique Savory Vegetables. They combine these vegetables with Curds and Whey over heat to make a gooey mess that cools into what they called Gumbo Cheese. I do not recommend trying any yourself as most humans have a hard time considering it even remotely edible. Using Gumbo cheese as bait will no doubt attract the leaders of the Nerg. Be well prepared for their arrival as they are the most territorial of all!

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

Mice Populations

We currently do not have enough results for Mice Populations.

Gumbo is the only cheese to use if you are after the three “boss” mice of Nerg.

If you are collecting Savoury Vegetables you will need to balance attraction rate and cost when deciding which cheese to use.

The more expensive cheese will bring in more Savoury Vegetables while hunting, but the the cheaper cheese will enable you to earn more gold.

Goals

Here is a selection of Goals that a hunter may like to achieve:

Collect Savoury Vegetables

Savoury Vegetables are required to make Gumbo Cheese, which is used to attract the Grandfather Mouse in Cape Clawed, and three mice in Nerg Plains, the Nerg Chieftain Mouse, Slayer Mouse and Defender Mouse.

Savoury Vegetables are dropped as loot by the Alnilam Mouse, Beast Tamer Mouse (upto 2), Caretaker Mouse, Conjurer Mouse, Conqueror Mouse, Finder Mouse (upto 3), Narrator Mouse and Pathfinder Mouse, each mouse only drops up to 1 Savoury Vegetable with the two exceptions mentioned above.

The weaker the mouse is, the less likely they are to drop Savoury Vegetables, with the Conqueror Mouse dropping 1 Savoury Vegetables in almost all cases.

Collect Yellow Pepper Seeds

Yellow Pepper Seeds are required to make a number of the Havarti Cheese used in the Jungle of Dread and Dracano, they are only dropped by the three mice in Nerg Plains that can only be attracted with Gumbo Cheese.

Yellow Pepper Seeds are dropped as loot by the Nerg Chieftain Mouse (upto 3), Slayer Mouse (upto 2) and Defender Mouse (upto 1).

High power and high luck Tactical traps are highly recommended when hunting these three mice.

Catch a Nerg Chieftain Mouse with the Blueprints

The Nerg Chieftain Mouse drops the Ancient Ripped Blueprint Piece, which is used for crafting the Ancient Box Trap.

The Nerg Chieftain Mouse is only attracted to Gumbo Cheese, is not commonly encountered and is the most powerful mouse in the location, fortunately it will drop the Blueprints in most cases (unless you already have them in your inventory), so it is an unlucky hunter who has to catch more than two before receiving this loot.

High power and high luck Tactical traps are highly recommended.
