Ronza’s Traveling Shoppe

Ronza’s Traveling Shoppe

Ronza stops in from time to time, bringing MouseHunters new and fancy trap components from other parts of the world. Little is known about her origins, and she never stays very long. The King allows Ronza to make port near the castle, to sell her goods. Perhaps the more she visits, the more we will find out about her…

Overview

Ronza has returned after a year away, bringing some new traps and a friend bringing new trap components.

When hunting in this location hunters can aquire some Rockforth cheese and use this to attract the Rockstar mouse.

More experienced hunters may like to arm Ancient cheese here to hunt for stronger mice with greater rewards.

Certain mice are dropping charms as loot, which might save a hunter some gold from their purchases.

But let’s be honest here. You didn’t come to this location to hunt for mice, you came here to shop.

Ronza brings new limited edition weapons and bases with her this time, and buying one of everything she has to offer will set you back almost 3.7 million gold.

If you can’t afford everything she has, you’ll need to make a decision on which weapons and bases to purchase, here’s a quick overview for you:

Pneumatic Tube Trap: A medium strength physical trap, ideal for hunters who haven’t purchased either the Mouse DeathBot or NVMRC Forcefield yet.
This trap will serve you well if you intend to spend some time in the Laboratory, but will soon fall out of use when you acquire stronger physical traps in places like Derr.

Rewers Riposte: A high luck tactical trap that has better or similar stats to the 2010 Blastoff Trap.
The 2010 Blastoff Trap is awesome, this one is even better, if you can afford it, buy it. This trap will give some fantastic results in Nerg Plains and all of Furoma, as well as parts of Whisker Woods and Rodentia.
This is a trap that high rank players will be seen using until Ronza brings an even better limited edition tactical trap, don’t miss out on it!

Arcane Blast Trap: A high power and luck arcane trap, a small improvement on the ACRoNYM.
This trap comes with a high price tag. It is better than the ACRoNYM in nearly all situations, but if you’re running out of gold you might want to leave this trap.

Bacon Base: A high attraction base.
High attraction bases are pretty rare, this one has slighty less attraction than the Wooden Base with Target, but does have more power. Not an essential purchase for any hunter, but potentially quite useful for those with limited gold.

Seasonal Base: A base with a power bonus when used in the Seasonal Garden.
A decent base to use in the Seasonal Garden, but being honest, I don’t think it will see much use. The only advantage this base has is a small attraction bonus, other bases available at Lord / Lady rank and above are better in other ways.

Runic Base: A base that improves the drop rate of Runes.
An ideal purchase if you’re off rune hunting! This base increases the drop rate and the potential number of runes, first time hunters of the Acolyte would find this a very useful addition to their inventory.
I’m not sure if it’s really worth the price tag, but apparently it glows when used in Bristle Woods. Personally I can’t resist anything that glows.

Tiki Base Blueprints: A upgraded Tribal base that gives a luck bonus in the tribal isles.
The problem with the Tribal base was always that it had no luck bonus. Lots of power never seemed to make up for that lack of luck, but with this upgraded version your tribal base might be useful again (in the tribal isles)!
Please note, these blueprints are not limited edition, and will be available again at some later point. They will also be available on the marketplace, but prices there may vary. You don’t need to buy this now, but you could end up paying a lot more for it later.

Requirements

To hunt (or shop) in the Ronza’s Traveling Shoppe a Hunter must have:
    A Hunter’s Title of at least Recruit.
And it is recommended that a Hunter should have:
    Any trap, preferably Tactical or Physical
    At least Marble cheese.

Hunting Tips by Larry

Ronza has returned to town, after a long voyage overseas! Among MouseHunters, her name can cause both excitement and high blood pressure.

Ronza occasionally visits Gnawnia with all sorts of original goodies packed into her airship. Be sure to visit her shop to see what she currently has for sale.

Have fun shopping, but beware: if you buy too much, you may find yourself unable to get a refund.

 

New Mice

Ronza’s Traveling Shoppe has several new mice that newer hunters might not have encountered before, but only one of these is currently unique to this location..

General Store

The General Store of the Festive Comet contains a small selection of crafting supplies for use in cheese.

Tiki Base Blueprints
These blueprints describe how to assemble pieces of Tribal Timber into an ornate base capable of mesmerizing the mice of the Elub, Nerg and Derr tribes. The enchanting effect results in a +6 luck bonus when hunting the three tribes. These plans are printed by Ronza herself, and are often available when she visits. Due to her limited supply, a hunter may only own 5 copies of the blueprints.

Mice Populations

We currently do not have enough results for Mice Populations.

 

 

While most regular cheese can be used in Ronza’s Traveling Shoppe, Rockforth is best for attracting Rockstar mice.

Ancient cheese should be used to attract the strongest mice in this location.

Goals

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

Collect Charms

Certain mice in this location are dropping charms, saving you the cost of purchasing them from the Charm Shoppe in the Mountain (please note, the First Ever Charm is only on sale for a very limited time and is not available as loot, you should purchase this as soon as you can).

The best way to collect charms in this location is to hunt as you would do normally to begin with. Hunters with an Arcane trap can use Ancient cheese to gain better results.

During this hunting you should collect some charms as well as some Rockforth. When you have sufficient Rockforth use it to attract the Rockstar mouse which also drops charms.

Collecting charms in this way can be a time consuming process. All of the charms available as loot here can be purchased from the mountain.

Thank you to all who have contributed so far and will do so in the future.

 

This article contains information that was accurate up to MouseHunt v3.1.22689.

  1. Regarding the Pneumatic Tube Trap. It is the NVMRC trap done Ronza style or an improved snow-globe. Yes, it will only be of limited use in the Isles. I will point out that if you do not have a high luck physical trap, it will still be VERY recommended as it will be incredibly useful during events (Esp if one is looking for Loot). We KNOW luck is helpful for loot. Non-Physical luck traps may not be appropriate for the event, but Physical traps do have a wide normal effectiveness catch rate.

  2. how we know when she dropping by again?
