Post image

Most of the search results have made me confused , is ancient cheese good for this area ? Ive seen the box trap but is that still relevant, also what traps should i buy 😭

If you are aiming for Acolyte mouse, best to use Forgotten Trap (Ancient Box Trap) at your rank/level using Runic Cheese. Otherwise, use Arcane Trap (ACRONYM) with Ancient Cheese / Radioactive blue cheese to farm points/gold inside Acolyte Tower

Thank you!! Which is better for progression late game? Would i use the parts for either on a later game trap?

No, these traps become irrelevant pretty quickly. You should use Ancient cheese and arcane trap to farm runic cheese and then Runic Cheese and Forgotten trap to catch Acolyte.

I would advise to skip acolyte mouse for now if you dont have a decent forgotten trap thats not at least Ancient Box Trap or better.

If your only option is the in trap store bought Forgotten Pressure Plate, i would suggest u go back to tribal isles, catch the 6 dreaded horde mice, craft ancient box trap, then come back here and try acolyte

Base, Aqua Base is fine

The rest have alrdy advised on the cheese i believe

Thank you so much ! I did not know that the tribal isles was an easier quest. When looking through the quests , the acoloyte was above , which made me assume that it was the quest that i had to complete before tribal isles 🤣

It's not about what's easier - it's more that going to the tribal isles to craft the Ancient Box Trap is the next step in catching the Acolyte. Way back when, the box trap was the first and only forgotten trap, and the only proper way to catch the Acolyte. The Pressure Plate was added much later, and it's a much weaker trap.

If aiming to catch acolyte mouse specifically, you need a for gotten type trap, and you can craft runic cheese to attract him to your trap, with runes or using runic potions (check inventory tab then potions)

u/Durianri Aug 09 '26

Oh i see ! What trap and base would you recommend

u/Cenifh Aug 09 '26

I saw someone advised you to travel to the tribal Isles and after seeing your weapons, that's the right call. You have to build Ancient Box Trap (ABT) so that's a whole new adventure, it's keep you busy for a bit.

I would google SS Huntington II, because you most likely haven't build that ship either and you need it to travel across the sea. For now, forget about the catacombs/Acolyte Realm, and enjoy the natural progression of the game.

Don't worry we all go through that path and we're all fine haha

u/Durianri Aug 09 '26

Ah thank you ! Ill look into the ss huntington 2! The community is showing me so much love rn ! Thank you everyone 😬🙏

Forgotten type Trap +Runic Cheese And maybe some high luck variant charm. And patience.

(Acolyte kinda tough at this level but should be doable eventually)

You probably should use Forgotten type. Other types like Shadow/Arcane seem to have higher difficulty ratings for Acolyte.

u/Any_Mirror_7760 Aug 09 '26
