I get mela mallards a bit
and for some animals, it may be completely different
It's 1 am 😂
My theory is correct , they did lie about adding backup saves to Xbox.
hmmmm
look at all dem chikens
SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK
Yo I'm so pissed rn
I chased this stupid ahh mythical mountain lion for a mile and it turned out to be a troll
it’s only a troll if it’s a max level animal, in the case of mountain lions, they can’t make it at level 8, hope you get a dime soon tho!
Trophy rating was from 37-39
yeah that doesn’t matter tho, technically it’s only a troll if it’s a max level animal, even if it’s a species that can make it at a level under
just trying to help 👍🏽
you can dismiss his advice if you want but he is by definition correct
a troll is a max level animal that fails to score diamond
Do water buffalo still get up to score 200 like they used to
no i think they cap out in the 180s now
I 2ND this motion.
is the fur type rare
I have a solo male in one of my gray wolf zones lvl 5 do I kill it or leave it??
Sadly it is not
??
How well managed are your exteriors?
If you are well managed it's not worth the risk to me. If you are still shooting down zones and finding zones then shoot him down imo.
anyone down to help me with my first diamond?
Explore your maps there is usually diamonds or rares or both on your maps when you first load them up
awh me thought eclipse was rare
get spotting knowladge skill on ambusher its shows trohpy lodges for animals
also hunt birds mostly because they have the easiest diamonds
@wispy storm crap had you hit me up about an hour ago I would have given u a diamond whitetail
Pretty positive he was an inital spawn diamond in an exterior also.
Nope, uncommon fur type but getting a Lvl 2 dime is pretty rare
aight
Anyone interested in a upcoming hunters group for Xbox dm me we’d love to have you we’re upcoming accept all people and the love for the outdoors thank you and god bless.
Wsg ppl
No kidding.. the envy here..
All maps have different species.. there is no best all around map. Thats just personal preference. And some maps have some advantages and are easier for certian species to grind.
I want to make sure I'm understanding dead zones and the animals need zone. So while an area is dead zoned let's say a drink zone. As long as that area remains dead zoned a drink zone will not appear inside of it correct? until that pressure drops and a new animal or herd like a solo is killed and relocates.
Why do shotguns have an incredibly wide cone when you’re not aiming down sights? It seems to be 3-5x wider spread but at the cost of being much shorter ranged.
Yeah but it doesn’t make sense with a shotgun
The spread pattern/density shouldn’t change, it should just change where you’re shooting it
Shhhhh thats how I kill 13 in 1 shot in the decoys with the double barrel and the 2 barrel perk...
It does seem like that’s its purpose, for annihilating a whole flock at point blank
Its literally how I start every flock then switch to the 12g it's pretty ridiculously broken..
Aaaannd it never gets old
Hmm
I have to try that
Just hip fire but active the double barrel perk and a scope on the 12g because you cant increase the yardage at distance just aim a little high
Gotcha
Set up your blind first then just test fire into the dirt/water then set decoys at the spread
It’s really weird actually, the 10g shotgun has 50m longer range than the 12g
12g reaches to 100m and the pellets despawn, 10g reaches to 150m
But I’ve never gotten a kill with any birdshot beyond 102m with a 12g
The two 10g shooting plastic shotshells have 150m range, to be clear. The lever action shooting brass shotshells has the same projectile lifetime as the 12g and thus the same ~100m range cap
Yeah it depends. I use the 10gauge allot especially for geese. But I'll use the 12 on larger flocks if I think i need the extra shot Thats really good to know.
If you have the other perks in the shotgun/rifle tree that increase rate of fire it is truly not necessary to get the perk that dumps both barrels at once, especially as this is point blank we’re talking about
fair nuff
When your opening shot on a flock it is
And double the bbs
Do you want 5 to get up and fly away or 2?
Idk how useful it is tbh, at 150m the drop and loss of shot density as well as velocity is so significant I don’t think 10g birdshot can actually reliably kill anything past 100m regardless
I have had better luck with 12g so far
If you take the perks in the shotgun tree that lower recoil and raise rate of fire, none are getting up and flying away if you use the semi-auto or the pump action
But it’s your choice obviously
does aneyone have gotten all the outposts on aney of folowing. layton.herchfelden.new england.rancho.vurhonga.revontuli.askei.emerald. or sundarpatan
On pc?
yeh
do u
Not on pc unfortunately.
oh wait ik
cant just like ether you or me create an multiplayer game the other person join it and then the one that got the outposts go to it places down a tent then i just fast travel to it and u pick up the tent and go to next outpost?
does that sound good
Thanks George!
Hello
Bro, who ever spawned a bunch of animals in front if me abd crashed my computer. Screw you.
Might wanna delete this, modding is against the rules
<@&393042322499305473>
Just banned them from another server for the same crap
i didnt know
Yes you did
I literally just told you they break terms of service in a different server and you got sassy
Don’t play innocent
bro it was dumb of me ok
sorry
i forgot to delete the message here
i lterally asked if someone else has it so i dont have to mod myself
Dude you got told it wasn’t allowed in another server and you said “does it look like I care”😭
Good ol rule 9 breaking love to see it
Rule 9 states no modding it’s not really disrespecting new players you are disrespecting server rules and the in game terms of service 😭😭😭
Oh hi
Hi
Tykkk
I DIDNT KNOW OK
You’re not cash
Yeah but I've known him long enough to feel like he's appreciate it
Why are we yelling
TYKKKKKKK
Literally
Inside voice
idk
Bros pressed more than we are 🙁
Sup fishling
my head hurts im tired and 2500+ into bear
Awkward
You did know tho. You were banned and told by Mel elsewhere for it. Just letting you know don’t do it again
I cant help u pop a g1
yes but i allready sent the message here before that
i cant tell the future
just leave hole is already 30ft
ok cool
dam that worked
Just curious, but did you not read the rules when you joined this server?
I believe that is part of the on-boarding, so it should be something people see right off the bat before they even get to the text chats
i did but ig i read over it im sorry ok
Not mad, was legit curious.
tyk ur always mad just diffrent stages
I don't know how they look to people now, I've been here long enough that it's changed since then
Some people don't know when to stop digging a hole..
Brotherman I'm just waking up from a nap, there is no anger only vibes
i should take a 2hr nap then stay up 30hrs
And a cat.
Meatball is squishing me.
The game isnt cross platform like that unfortunately
i need a pet
I vote don't.
It feels gross
30hrs aint long
Nah the after feeling is the gross part
During is fine, after is gross
I normally pull anywhere from 48hours to 60 then pass out for about 12.
feeling?
yeah this isn't good for u
Y'all get sleep?
But as of recently I've been needing to hustle and make money so now I'm just sleeping around 4 to 5 hours
No
u should have alot more trophies compared to ur sleep
But alternative sleep schedules are a thing but you have to commit. I was doing a 30 minutes every 2 hours basically. You just cant skip your sleep when it's time otherwise it really messes with you
Hey I said I can stay awake. I didn't say anything about being practical or useful or being able to stay on point and focused. 😅🤣😂
In what way are the binoculars with a range finder better than the regular range finder?
next time you ping me unnecessarily i'm putting in a report to the moderators that you're doing it on purpose
2 pings after i'd fallen asleep was unneeded after being told i dont want to play with you
whats the best feed for deers?
just the fact that it’s both i think
Well when you zoom in with the rangefinder it looks just like the binos inside or is it slightly smaller maybe?
it might be that as well as the zoom, i’m pretty sure you get more zoom with the combo
Nvm I was able to answer my own question and deadzone 3 lakes and it forced the game to spawn a drink zone within the dead zone... I wanna cry now... is it possible to swap herds? Like with deer.
I didnt even know you can get rabbits to come to a feeder
Mountain goats are a lie made up by the Canadian government to get you lost in the mountains (I'm losing my mind)
Yep and they do to at thier feed time if it's with 500 of one of thier zones.
Although I think the jack rabbits are only attracted to multigrain. Idk i had 2 feeders with 2 different initaly and they only came into one.
What gun should I use for my mule deer grind
What guns you got?
There's a lot of options really depending on packs
Any gun other than the ones you have to buy
Hmm I've kinda forgot what the base vanilla guns are 😄 what about maps? If you own the te awaroa map it comes with an amazing .303 rifle
Use the 7mm for long shots and the 45 70 lever for run n gun
You could use the 270 and the 243 etc but your gonna be better off with the 7mm
I got that lever but don't like it. However think I bought wrong ammo
And the 45 70 as back up
Yeah I'd rather use the 7mm than 270 for sure
Put a red dot on it it's allot of fun
Oh my!!!!!!
kitty
yup
Thank you
Boop I got your nose.
I took it home with me. Give it back so it can sit pretty😞😞
which maps contains elephants?
is there automatic rifles in the packs or they all mod? I saw in youtube
endangered
I loved it
How do I find Lions
Congrats
GGs
YESSSSS
So are snow leopards and many others in cotw
I dont know what you mean by mods. But yes there are a few semi auto rifles. Idk if any of them aren't dlc
Touche
snow leopards are listed as vulnerable, not endangered
YES ITS LUNG
Can someone test if Grelck Drilling Rifle is bugged?
But didn't the devs speak about the size. And herd traveling mechans is the issue
which species
nice
they have said they are more open to add endangered species now
AK-47??
where has this been stated
everytime i try to hit moose from front with it, with rifle caliber and barrel
it just doesn't lose any hp at all, even when hit in heart
and the shot goes offset from scope i think
whenever they did the Q&A near the end of last year
That's a common glitch
do you have a screenshot
no
How
I don't quite remember
I believe the 300 mag i think not 100% sure
that one works fine for me
One more map to unlock. The light at the end of the tunnel is slowly approaching. Then I can hunt...
Hm do i check
Wait
Idk how to
But it was a pistol or some sort i think but im rlly js guessing guns
It wouldn't hurt to check zo
well
if you have grelck drilling rifle
you can test for me
just so i know if its just me or global
It's in #📜︴faq
What you on
Bro some 12y old kid wants me to help him get a g1 and he won't stop shouting in my multi player server lodge
Do i kick him
Or na i feel bad
Is he annoying
Very
I was gonna say I could help him but
I seen a lodge the other day with a typical white tail
Good luck
True
If he asked Nice it’s different then screaming
Damn now I feel bad
No he first asked nice then i said nrn then he kept being pushy
And pushy
Ahh
So I just kicked him
What is your peace and sanity worth?
I woudnt stress it
Ot mute them
True that's mb
Dokt worry abt it
Yeah honestly i gotta find him
I think his name was
Gamechangerstan1s
Smth like that
Spongeeeee
YO I GOT MY FIRST G1
No wayyyy
Fabled silver?
Like I dont mind playing with teens. But not those kind lol. There are some good kids out there that do know how to behave around adults. Its too bad the sour apples spoil the bunch for allot of the older mature players.
You really did take my luck 🤣🤣
I tried starting a fallow grind but the edge of the map was to annoying
See
bro i dont understand this grelck drilling rifle
neither slugs or rifle caliber works to oneshot heart moose
it feels like scope is offset
even at 50m
I used to use it all the time at 150m+ and had no problem one shotting moose?
I couldn't even figure out how to load it
Imma go spawn a fabled hooded with Irish elk rack now 🤣
Aight bet
What grinds next?
Hm
This. I am all for helping the younger generation and encouraging their love of games and getting achievements.... but only a few of them have the maturity to not act like screeching toddlers 99% of the time. So I just avoid them all
Whitetail on revontuli?
Idk
Lemme ask some sweat or some experienced player
Hey 1 question
What's a good grind after fallow
Aight bet lmk
Tbf she has way more exp than us so
Fr
Well there’s 3 but they all look the same
Dif sizes lol
And the thing is I'm actually pretty tolerant and laid back and goofy and childish and like to have fun.. but Broski yeah I get it... we all want a diamond we all want a super rare... you don't need to nonstop talk about it... 😅🤣😂 oh if I had a nickel
Well if you want to hop on my server
and see for urself
it feels like its offset
Small medium and big
Can anyone help me?
Damn i want moose white tail or wolf
Yo I need help I got a 0 trophy rating piebald female red deer I’m bout to shoot but I have a terrible angle should I just shoot it with my aryzna 300 because it’s 0 anyways?
I’m down to do any of those next
Anyone on Xbox wanna jump in a party 18+
Yea
Alr ty
Fr would love a fabled two tone
#🦌︴find-a-game is your go to!
That line is so flipping iconic
I’d say white tail
Honestly me to plus i already have a dim
I just mark myself as 18+ and go from there 😂 mostly keeps me safe
I can help with white tail to
I did my white tail on rev
What's better on rev or layton
I’d say rev
If rev il take ur help if layton il take vases help
The river tho 🤣😭
I think rev is better to
True
i should setup rev wt
It's hard lowki
but that means i have to unlock rev.
Best place is askiy ridge
.
😭
i know why
I don’t have askiy ridge
Dw u won't even need to
What are we talking about
Mule and wolf though
''CoS iT hAs ThE lEaSt AmOuNt Of ZoNes''
It isn't even that gud for wolf
that took way to long to type
Medved prob better
Lol
ANYONE USED GELCK DRILLING RIFLE?
yukon is best for wolf
I think i do and it glitches with moose
Take a screen shot
I haven’t played Yukon much
Of it
Literally funny bc every big name YouTuber will tell you the easiest whitetail G1 location in indeed askiy ridge for the fact of how easy the zones are and how spread out you could get your setup.
Everyone’s got their opinion
screenshot of what
who are those people
Za gun
Lady legend claims it’s the best
idk about the other
Bro
shes wrong ALOT of the time
Don't watch yt guides
😭
That's so bad
I don’t watch guides I find out for myself
Squids guides are good
Lady legend is not great for guided
Don't listen to ytberz zen
Pro XCK is best for guides 💯
Ibuy and flinters grinds are all right ig
True
his maps are also the best
guys does axis deer have a great one??
Sponge I say we do whitetail on rev the wolf on med after that
Yeah i believe that's glitched
Idk i saw rooster having an issue tho
bro ur just yapping to yap now
🤦🏻♂️
🤤 These maps are peak, everything you need is on there
I mean if colbyg can help us both sure
My drilling rifle worked good when I used it
I'm not sure tho
The rifle barrel?
guys does axis deer have a great one
no
oh
Yes
Colbyg can u show like all ur g1s so ik how experienced u r
With scope?
Or without
But i play miltiplayer
So idk if its bugged
@velvet lintel
When im in other servers
With
Multiplayer can be buggy with any gun
another thing bad about ladys maps is ''best spots''. breh, there is no such thing as a best spot, its different for everyone
Dado either way multi player isn't worth the hassle
@twin spindle
multiplayer is in such a bad state cos they dont have an anticheat
Dime #1 of the day on my first rotation 🔥
Yeah, when I played multi player I made a rule to take no trophies because of how may modded rooms I stumbled into.
luckily its not as bad on console, but its definitely getting worse
@tough peak when do you want help
my gret juans
Hmm I'm thinking
Honestly help Phoenix first till he gets his g1
What he grinding
Fallow aswell he's at like 1k kills
Yea I can help him
That to
I play mp mostly coz i dudbt buy maps
But also i prefer mp coz its more social
If he wants help shooting them down I can help with that to
Want help
Well idk
Nah I’m good
so do i set up my grind till ya get a g1
Go for it, start without me lol I’ll get there sooner or later or I’ll give up on fallow and grind something else lol
I find multi nice for play testing maps before you buy. However the entire fun for me is herd management and setting up the map, can't really do that on multi.
Will use the hell out of emerald coast maps for some quick cash though😂
Alright bet
@velvet lintel
What do you want help with
Nah dw il set it up and use my old fallow till u get a g1
White tail on revontuli
It’s gonna happen today I feel it
Alright
Me to
So u talk and we set up the grind
And all zat
But
When are u avaliable
Rn
Cuz rn ima reuse my fallow
Yeah like besides rn
Till 1
When's 1
Maybe if I’m not busy
Alright I'm gonna discover my zones then use u maybe tmrw or later
Have fun sponge
I can help you discover them
Imma make breakfast then back on the grind
Alright bet
Can i first see ur lodge
Alright
Ima claim this outpost then make it
I did accidentally delete 6 dimes btw
Holy ur stacked in red
Yeah and ur dims
I had 6 more of them
Do u have more white tail to put
I know I got lucky
Yea
I have more come check
Or nvm ya left
I’m coming back
Kk
bro i need help to kill g1s
You got a grind?
Scope?
@fickle panther I'll help you kill a g1. Let me know when it spawns I'm sure I can manage to take it down. 😅🤣😂
I saw
Colbyg is my lodge gud
Yes
Thanks
Yea fs
Im impressed!
Thanks 😆 Spend long enough learning how to dome birds at 400m, and 300m shots on bison become pretty standard. Aim small miss small!
That n think long think wrong! Ie get the shot off dont take forever.
Holy crap vas. No scope?!
🏆
Yeah i meant with scope. Scopeless it works usually
I have a feeling that scope is offset.
So its not bullseye. Even at 1m
Cause i aim at 50m where i aim every other rufle
Rifle
And its a heart shot
I just bought the scope, testing now. It bullseyes at the range but we'll see how it does in practice
But with grelck its nit
Try multiplayer too if u can
It bullseyes in singleplayer for me too
But when i load both shotgun shells
And rifle chamver
Then swap to rifle chamber
I can see the graphic offset
Idk how to explain
Maybe its due to ping or something
Infact i might record my encounters actually
So u can see what im talking about
I've never used it's 16ga before so I'll test tandem as well.
Yeah i mean the rifle chamber itself
The 1 shot one is also inaccurate ti me in mp in scope
Sounds like an MP issue rather than a rifle issue but idk
Can anyone help me, i found and shot a mythical red deer, but it ran away and bled ( missed vital organs ) , i followed it for AGES but later on the purple pressure zone appeared, i cant find the deer anywhere , will it come back to the same spot i found him or is he gone forever
Ew... Love when you shoot something across the lake but its toe was dipped in the water so now it needs to float to you.
If purple is up he died. You gotta find him. Do you have a dog?
Try restarting from where you shot him and take it slow. You'll find him!
Love the .308 @azure crag
I dont have a dog so its really hard, but if he died in the purple zone i followed him for ages and ages very far from where i shot him at
Its quite hard to explain
Nah purple zone is just the zone you fired the shot. He can run out of that area and die somewhere else.
If you can I highly recommend the blood hound. Very helpful with tracking nonclean kills
Oh alright, but another thing im confused about is how he made it so far away, i spotted his group again but i couldnt seem to see him anywhere so i gave up and went back to where i shot him, so far its been 40m since i shot and followed him- Is the dog a DLC i have to buy though? or is it just normal igc
They can go a good distance depending on where the shot landed.
Well if u test let me know
Dog is dlc you gotta pay for unfortunately
Yes
Thanks alot i apreciate the help guys
Np
Also another question, when i spotted the fella with binoculars it said hes a class 8 mythical, when i follow the tracks it says class 6
Nevermind i see him
Apparently he didnt die
@azure crag Here's a vid example, the lion took zero damage so im thinking it didnt hit lungs aka not bullseye
All I've been able to confirm so far is that I hate random kids. Always some little crotch goblin ruining the area by riding right by on an ATV.
Classic.
You hit too close to that shoulder. Likely wasn't able to penetrate into the lung from that angle due to the increased flesh needed to travel through.
I mean this happens even when fully broadside
As if shot goes a bit left or right
Let me try to get a better shot.
But for example even moose heart shots doesn't drop much hp (u can see from tab top right)
Though mostly in MP.
I'm just going to create an MP lobby and make it private to test. F^&k these kids.
@azure crag found the harvest
I waited and he came back, so i probably shot something beforehand and got mixed up, i spotted him as he ran off so i just let him go, he will come back though to the same spot yeah? if not ill go after him
Just track it. Find it's track go to the middle of the purple shot spot and find the blood and use your GPS if you dont have a dog. Otherwise buy a dog.
But either way, drilling rifle behaves very weird
compared to all other rifles i have in this game.
So it's accurate and you did skim the lungs. No problems. Sweet.
Except I can swear that i was 50 meters in front of moose
And aimed right at heart, i hit it bullseye on heart
Like i do with any other gun
And it just ran away, barely low blood loss
Its kinda weird but maybe it's just the caliber being not powerufl
It's entirely possible you just missed heart by a fraction.
eventhough its a big caliber of itself
If ur at a need zone and he's a live, yea he'll come back next cycle. Or you can follow the herd to their next need zone to see where they travel
It'll heart shot bison at 300m with good shot placement, I doubt it's an issue of power. I'll try a frontal shot on moose and see.
Yeah theres a sleeping zone and a feeding, lake right next to it so probably drinking also. So i should just wait then
If it's dead it's not coming back
You can go hunt other locations to get that purple spot to go away in that area. So when you hunt again, the pressure wont increase
Just saw this, yeah I'm ngl I didn't realize the drilling rifle even came with a scope so my experience with it til today has been entirely iron sights 😂
If you log/reset the time it will poof or poof after so many hours of counting to play and leaving it.
Beast
Have i called you a gun nerd yet? 😂
Taking that as a compliment most high 😂
Huh
also @azure crag you can see when looking at ammunition in store that it says effective range
That was at leo
Oh yes. Tis meant as such
in this case effective range for slugs 16ga for drilling rifle is 25m iirc or 50m
yeah 50m iirc
so does that mean past 50m it will simply not have power to penetrate most animals
or what does it indiacte?
indicate*
cause only this gun is making weird stuff to me
It'll just have less
I hit 400+ shots with other guns regularly
Especially since u saw me when i was doing my grind and HM, and my aim
It indicates parabolics. After 50m the round starts dropping, and by 150m it drops significantly.
You need to compensate twice as much for a 200m shot with 16ga slugs, as you do a 300m shot with the rifle round it uses.
when i was recording it to u, lol
Oh yeah so just the drop off, ty
I thought penetration would also massively tank
But also, idk if polymer for drilling rifle is better than hollow points since polymers can't penetrate that much from what I tested but hollowpoints have decent expansion
Penetration is reduced a lot, and power is reduced a little, so slugs, while still lethal with broadside lung shots, cannot penetrate bone or thick flesh effectively outside of 50-100m depending on the shell.
No time to grind this morning. Gotta go get ready to destroy my husband at pool mwahaha
G1 boar maybe tonight?
Here's hoping
Depends entirely on shot angles. The polymers can heart shot where the expansion can't, but if you're making good single organ shots then expansion wins.
What about zeroing tho? Since gelck drilling rifle is effective at like 100m iirc
but if we have zeroing perk at 150m we can just bullseye it so no need to compensate right.. but it'll still lose pen and expansion ye?
The effective range thing is straight bull
Means nothing
Just about every gun is effective up to render distance
Correct, penetration will still be affected regardless of zero.
Additionally, drop will still need to be accounted for when targeting shots in-between your zero ranges. For example if the 16ga zeroes at 100 and 150m, and you're shooting at 125m, you'll have to consider whether to zero to 100 and adjust up, or zero to 150 and adjust down. Though typically this only matters on small targets or if you're determined to brain or heart shot.
Yes, but penetration and bullet drop are affected. Depending on the caliber of round this makes a huge difference.
Large caliber, popular rifles like the .300 and .375 can basically ignore this, but shotgun slugs, handguns, class 2-6 rifles and especially the air rifle, are all notably affected.
Hey guys what is the best map I should get in the angler (level 20) with Realy strong rods
True that
Handguns and 2-6 rifles not really
Tbf, the handguns are super overpowered
also @azure crag what do u think of solokhin? it does not have polymer bullets available but its hollowpoints are like 300$ only (i think that's cheapest possible ammo for 3-7 classes or whatever it is)
also @azure crag is it possible to fire tandem for slugs (for drilling rifle) both slugs at once?
IRL it can do that, depending on triggers setup
Well.... Here's the thing. Expansion rounds tend to do 100-200% more dmg per organ hit, than penetration rounds of the same caliber. So an expansion round in and of itself is better than Pen rounds, when you're not trying to break through bone or shoot at extreme angles.
So not having an expansion round, shouldn't be an issue at all for anyone with skill.
That said, the 7.62x54R round itself is underwhelming for it's class rating. It's great for class 3-5 and fine for class 6, but even class 2-6 rifles like the
.257, outperform it on class 6.
All that said, it's coverage of 3-7 is nice, as not very many rounds offer that coverage, and while not particularly powerful it can take class 7 game. So if someone wanted a cheap round that can cover a wide variety of game, it's a serviceable choice.
It's not winning any awards though.
whats max score for fallow?
Is the haggis actually real?
Fair enough, though the calibers expansion and penetration seems to be skewed a bit, the drilling rifle caliber is pretty big caliber (its a big game caliber of itself) but will somewhat struggle even with medium animals to an extent, same with solokhin 7.62 is actually a big caliber and will take down big game easily whereas in game it's not the same
Did anyone find breakthroughs in the search?
So im wondering how is that possible
270.72
Hello, are magpies still bugged on Emerald?
Yes
Was wondering how i got 3 diamonds with one being at level 4 😂😂
@azure crag It´s only real downside comes in the form of it´s available ammunition: The Solokhin only has access to Soft-Point rounds, wich limits its overall effectiveness a bit due to the lack of higher penetration. But dont let that fool you: While on paper it´s rounds have exactly the same penetration and expansion values as the Soft-Point rounds of the Ranger .243 (15pen and 17exp), the Solokhins 7.62x54R Soft Point Bullets have a decent amount more power behind them. This, in practice, means that they will usually penetrate a bit better and a bit deeper than the .243´s Soft-Point rounds at similar distances and therefore also penetrate more reliably at angles (provided the angle is not too steep).
See this is what it says on solokhin wiki
So how exactly does the solokhin's 7.62 caliber get "more power" if it's the same stats as the ranger .243?
(yes irl the casing is bigger and so is the projectile for 7.62 but thats not included in stats in game no?)
Well, couple things.
One, the wiki is mostly dumb, don't trust it too much.
Two, expansion and penetration stats aren't linear across all calibers.
Take the .44 and .45 Air, for example. Both of them have exactly the same Expansion rating (70) and nearly identical Pen (17 and 15, respectively). But the .44 is rated for class 3-8 while the .45 Air is rated for class 2-4.
The .44 HP rounds go through and through a Pronghorn at 200+m, but the .45 air rounds can't double lung at all outside of 100m, let alone pass through a Pronghorn.
So it's not enough to just look at the ratings and decide which round is better, you have to actually test them. I actually tested the 7.62 against the .257 against class 6 Blue Wildebeest. .257 is a more lethal round at 200m, despite the 7.62 being rated higher. It's a budget round with versatility in mind, not a major powerhouse.
Still, there's value in being cheap and versatile.
Fair enough, but isnt irl 7.62 still more powerful and slightly bigger in projectile and cartridge?
did u test softpoint of .257 or polymer?
Soft Points are more powerful. I tested the polymer to give 7.62 a fighting chance.
Point is, it's not a stellar round but it's serviceable, cheap and versatile, and that's what makes it good.
yeah its only like 300#
and covers a good amount of classes
plus the rifle is decently accurate from what i tested
Buy all the DLC
My AR15 takes 5.56
This is what I mean; rifles such as the Frost lose the ability to effectively double lung at longer ranges. Loss of penetration means loss of damage, ability to break bone, and ability to take harsh angled shots. Clean broadside become the only reliable recourse, so expansion rounds become considerably better options. But they're definitely not equally effective at all ranges.
What's odd about em?
They are getting spawned in new spots
Is it your solos/duos that are spawning elsewhere?
Did you deadzone any?
Nope some solo zones are new herds are just Devoloping around my zones and i think i lost a few males bc of zat
Interesting. I've never seen that happen, idk what to tell you other than just keep doing what you have been, locate the new zones and keep track.
Maybe u could take a look at it vas
Yeah but never harvested
Idk then
@junior marsh apologies for the tag, but this seems like something you may be familiar with, considering your penchant for tracking data.
May not answer their playing pool with the husband
We both know he's gonna give up after she beats him the 3rd time in a row.
Fair enough 🤣
Lol
Dime #6 for the day has spawned but still no G1
Look Pool is almost entirely a math game, if she's a third as gung-ho about mathematics as she is other forms of data she's a world class pool player 😆
That’s why I’m good at pool 🤣🤣
🤣🤣 rules can be tricky when you don’t play very often
Vas
I'm incredibly fast at math. Ask me any math question and I can give you an answer within 10 seconds
What great ones do u have again?
Me to
Ask me smth
Spongeeee dime #6 today is my first 50/50 rack
nc
Vas are ya typing an equation or
No
Kk ima call my cousin rq
Anyone on Xbox
Yes
Wanna play sometime?
How do I herd manage boar while using the feeders? How do I know if I’m getting most of the boars in an area?
I don’t have internet at the moment but once I get that then sure
I lied it wasn’t my first dime 50/50 rack just the first on I noticed, when I went and added today’s 6 dimes to the lodge I found another 50/50
Oh
Kk
Idk man I’ve got 6 dimes already today and no G1
Damn
I have 41 total dime fallow
Ok I dm you
Okay
I'm going to start leaving open maps I dont play on multi-player when I'm not playing and sleeping. so other people can find my zones. Depending how it goes I may even tent outposts put tripods and collection tents. 😅
It's all fun and games til that one guy goes in and deadzones every single spot 😆
Dime 42 spawned #7 for the day
Ain't nothing that cant be fixed
W
But like some maps i have vested... no no way lol.
Fr
Nice
Yo
Can you buy a play with me? I’ve never shot a diamond before or a great one and I really want to.
Just play with me
Explore your maps your bound to find a diamond sooner or later
Or look in #🦌︴find-a-game
He's on my team this time lol. And with grandparents
Never got why you would wish to skip the fun aspect of the game to just be handed diamonds. Not much difference in hunting a diamond vs a gold other then the feeling you get on that journey to acquire it.
As for fallow, I actually haven't hunted them seriously yet so I'm not entirely confident on their behavior
@tough peak
Thanks
Hi Phoenix
Do you know if having piebald females on my map will screw with my rare rates?
Hi sponge
Just kill any rare
My cousin killed an albino doe
And voila a diamond from 50 kills
From a mule grind
I don’t want to kill the females and it mess with my zones
Kk
Unless they’re screwing with my rare rates
They’re kinda like pets at this point 🤣 I see them every run because I have two pies and they’re both in main zones
I’ve never heard anyone suggest it would.
As far as we know, no. Something i plan to test though
Awesome I sure hope they don’t but I figured I’d ask bc im 1200 kills in and haven’t seen a single rare other than my two females
^
I’ll be back in about 30 imma go shower so I don’t smell terrible when I go play pool later
Stink
Show dominance
I’d assume fur type is on an entirely different chance system than trophy rating, considering you can herd manage for trophy but not for fur.
Nahhh
I’m pretty sure it’s like a different number generation system that just can’t be manipulated that same way
Yea
🤣🤣 that’s no for me
As long as you don't kill that doe and 50% of the rest of the herd. Killing that 1 doe isnt going to hurt anything. And i believe just anytime an animal spawns it just goes into a loot table and has a chance to come back as a rare. I dont think you can have a max rare fur or anything like that.
Is the wolf grind actually easy?
the easiest one
There's a way to find out. What may be easy for me may be difficult for you and vise versa
That series of answers is not helpful lmao😭
can i get some help setting up a mule grind on askiy ridge
Wdym by this?
They move around a lot and never show up at their zones in time
For me at least
My fallow grinds were like this
What makes it so easy
Increase it by 10 and that's my wolf grind
Fallow are inconsistent too but not as bad
Was hard to get a routine for wolves imo
new pet at the house
Cause u don’t have the perk
and what perk I need?
I dont see any that talk about spot animals
Idk
Blast it
Sight spotting I believe in the ambusher skill tree.
I believe it’s a skill and it’s called sight spotting
Tank beat me to it haha
🎉
thx
type in celebrate got a tada... close enough lol.
Trying to decide on my next g1 grind
Is there a way to see all the fur variants and racks and all that?
I find ladylegends chat handy for that, she has things like this easily accessible along with heat maps.
nice, im going to use
thx
in english u say Driven hunt?
a person drive the animals to spots and the other people hunt
u know? in spain we say Monteria
someone want to do?
Is the haggis really in this game?

Can ya help me with whitetail revontuli grind
Any breakthroughs on how to find it?
I haven't kept up with the news for a few weeks
Wait how many tents and tripods do i need
I think I seen a video on using keen eye ambusher perk to find the locations though i didn't watch it because i don't even have the map lol.
Seems like it could function though, it's just a wide area search skill.
Keen eye ambush perk? That's not a thing
Oh you mean the skill
Oh skill my bad.
Ah I need that
Just found out the coachmate doesn't suck I was just using the wrong ammo
yeah. unless you’ll be taking the time to make sure each shot is a perfectly zeroed broadside shot, you’ll want to be shooting the round with more penetration
I just automatically went expensive ammo must be the good one
yeah. in most cases that’s how it is actually lol
I like a lever. And the scope doesn't bother me despite it being unpopular
Yeah it's usually expensive ammo for most guns
the .243 hollow points for example that you get at first for free are horrible, but the pen rounds are much better
Can haggis appear in multiplayer?
Yeah I don't think I've used the .243 or the .270 since my first week on cotw which was a minute or two ago. 5 years I think
When i first started i used the 243 with free ammo for the longest time and seemed fine.
Nothing wrong with either. I just insta fell in love with game and got weapon packs. When you've paid cash money for guns you tend to use them more
with some exceptions.
.300 and .338 soft points basically act as polymer rounds within 150m, even on class 9 animals, for example.
Other calibers such as .375 have less impressive expansion ammo.
Additionally, if you're shooting game at the lower-end of a caliber's rating, such as shooting class 3-4 with a class 3-8 caliber, or class 4-5 with a class 4-9 caliber, the soft points will basically make all shots act as heart shots and drop game immediately.
And finally, at extensive ranges (300-400m), where penetration is no longer reliable, expansion rounds still drop considerably quickly.
I would 1000% rather use the .308 so i get it😂
.338 has always felt a bit underpowered to me. I never really use it beyond 150 metres
when i hit heart, they drop quite fast enough 😂👍🏽
Absolutely, but hitting heart shots at 300m+ isn't really something most folks are doing regularly.
That said, trololol look at this iron sights shot.
I get a lot of 300 plus heartshots with the m1 iwaniec. It's usually cos I'm aiming higher for the distance so it lands lower and takes the heart. Never intentional lol
M1 is great. Love using a garand for deer even if it's an older gun
how mutch xp is lvl 60
Yeah, you can instakill any game with any round if you place the shot just right. Hell, even my beloved air rifle can instakill class 4s.
Do they also simulate garand thumb into the game😂 ?
All I know is its got that satisfying Hell Let Loose sound when you run outta bullets
hi
@azure crag I tested drilling rifle caliber and then frost .257 vs wild boars
it feels like that for some reason the drilling caliber kills wild boars faster in lungs than .257
The variation in names of Great one furs is hilarious to me
same shot placement, boars drop faster than with .257 eventho they take a few steps
That makes sense, the drilling rifle is a beefy round.
