If you know how to aim with a bow, then yes
Isnt it dead center at whatever zeroing tells you?
I haven't tried trad. bows in ages
On the topic of shoots, do they always follow an arc, or only from zeroing distance?
How many laps of New England's rivers should I expect to need to make to mark most drinking times?
Not entirely sure, tbh.
Whatever you intend, please go to the firing ranges and practice
at least one more
Will you attend my IG dude's funeral from over-hiking?
Of course of course.
I did a photography session for a community member when they found and yoinked a GO bear
I would proudly do some scenic view photographs of the trails that did you in
how do i see the percent of the animals hp?
From spotting or tracking blood?
^ I think its a skill or passive perk that you need to spec into
ah i see
I'll find it in a minute
Bless you, Eagle
The above
Happy to be of whatever help I'm capable of rendering.
💕
Can I sit at a lake through a full day/night cycle and observe animals dynamically coming and going to spot their need zones at the correct times?
XD
I know that it works for ducks, due to them dive-bombing me constantly while going for specific other animals
Guys how i can do a photo of a fallow deer? its a mission
default key P on pc
thanks very much
Is mocha rare for banteng?
Okay
can i kill a moose at 130m with 270?
Yes
Guys is rangemaster worth it?
Yes, but I'd personally use a gun in the 7-9 class range, if you carry one (so the .300 or .338), or one of the single-shoots that go from 4-9 or 5-9 (7mm, Drilling)
And what gun is good for class one animals without dlc
I dont have dlc's so thats only class 9 gun i think
So thats bothering me a bit but
Then I'd recommend the Yukon DLC, good map and comrs with the .300
But other than that, the .338 is a great gun as well, but it's single shot, so beware of that
No idea which guns are for class 1 without DLC, I think only shotguns with birdshot, right? The 22LR Virant is great, I think it's in one of the weapon packs
Some do, yes. Notably the .300 with Yukon and the .303 with Te Awaroa.
Others which I can think of off the top of my head are the 22H with Mississippi and the new 2-4 gun with Emerald coast
Yea but I don't recall if there's a 22LR gun available without DLC access, I don't think there is
I mean i dont think i have mone dor dlcs i grinded cases from cs to even get the game so
Ya idk then, anyways gotta go, have fun playing
Kk
What are the game's decission on wether an animal can or cannot be added? For example elephants
so i have the game pass version of COTW. no DLC. I was wondering if I bought the steam master hunter bundle version, can i just transfer over my save from game pass to the steam version? anyone know?
I've found the save files in Documents folder. Actually ya know what? the steam sale is so cheap i'm just gonna try it.
i figured out my crashes thanks to my friend jones!
wanna hear why?
That counts as xbox, so avalanche wont count with pc
If you tried the game on epic it would work tho
oh I meant the PC version on PC game pass
Tell me!
i probably should have clarified that
when pressing LSHIFT (without the toggle is on), i still keep breathing. why?
Might be out of breath
it's a short timed breath hold
and it can get longer when you level up the skill
I think it counts as xbox still
but you still breathe after like 5 or 6 seconds
i launched it from the desktop shortcut, which apparently causes thew game to crash. but when launched within the launcher, i can play it just fine!
oh my god 😂
not out of breath. im sneaking and using the toggle mode (sorry if i said otherwise. but the breathing setting is standard). so that shouldnt be the issue
well... how would i know, that was the issue?
so
Im a lot slwoer then my friends
in speed
anyone know how i might wanna fix this
if it helps im like level 4 and there like level 14 to 16
Yeah levem defines speed lol
are they speed hacking?
I know that desync between systems can be like them being a pace or two ahead, but there's no valid reason for them to be consistently leaving you behind
Wait I thought I was on lego discord
Does weight have to do anything with running?
There is no run skill right?
Not that I am aware of
i shot a deer, but how do i find it? cause i dont remember where it was at. i saw it and shot
but now ive lost where it landed!
Track mode and find the blood trail
If it was a good shot it couldn't have gone far
it didnt even sense me at all! i think it was in the shoulder area, not sure, as i just shot. and how/where do i enable/find track mode? first time player here
Click E and it should highlight blood where you shot it. If it was a good lung/double lung there should be a lot of blood otherwise if you somehow missed all the organs it probably got away
i keep pressing E, but nothing happens at all when i look around! furthermore, i saw the male laid down, and another deer ran past it
i didnt see it standing up again. it was honestly laying down when i hitted it. but no purple area(s) as well
Then it got away sadly
how is that possible? it kept laying down
my friend Jones is a hunter in the real world, so he told me some tips/tricks to best killings
Might have been a bug not sure
When you shot were you shooting off a cliff or something where the ground might have got in the way of the barrel of the gun? It happened to me once....
Where the scope is perfectly lined up with the animal however the barrel Is physically in the ground 😂
Also some fallen logs have massive hitboxes
Which weapon pack has the m1 garand?
Smoking barrels I think
It’s weapon pack 1 I think. Smoking barrels has the muzzle loaders
Thanks
It’s either 1 or 2 u would need to look at those 2
Smoking barrels
Elephants are protected world-wide.
Animals which are prohibited from hunting, as well as critically endangered animals are not going to be added anymore. I say anymore because the European Bison is most certainly forbidden to be hunted, at least in Germany, where Hirschfelden is supposed to be located (we also only have a few animals in the country).
A second African map would be awesome, and there's lots of unique animals which could be added, but Elephants aren't one of them
Banteng, while they are endangered in their home range, are invasive pests in Australia, which is how the devs were able to make it work.
same with hog deer
You can hunt Elephant in Botswana tho
That's also why most Asian map requests will never be heard, as hunting is largely prohibited across India, China, Japan, etc. - afaik at least.
There's still lots of possible maps which are exciting and would bring new stuff to the table. As I said a second African map, as well as a new map in the Arctic circle (Canada?) would be my next whishes (Australia being one that was granted recently)
is this boat crossing supposed to be green in revontuli coast? I've used it already and I don't know how to make it white if possible
You can hunt boar and deer in japan
Not sure if bear
Oh yeah bear in bear season
Apparently not only in Botswana but several African countries, but tha tdoesn't change their status or the general consensus that they should be protected, as their numbers keep twindling, especially in Africa. The devs stated something along those lines in the past iirc
Ok didn't know that, I thought there was no hunting in Japan
generally
There's exceptions and fringe-cases
But that's usually what they take into consideration afaik
I guess? idk 😅
Though a horse/donkey ai would be needed
That'd be cool anyways, for zebras - should we get another African map
hello,
for a few days now my friend cant connect his APEX CONNECT to his COTW(platform Steam)
there is no login menu for apex connect, also the game does not ask him to login! 😦 he has an account at apex connect but there is no option to log in when ingame..
Can anyone help?
Zebras can appear on emerald, as i thunk they were invasive in Australia?
They are endangered, even plains zebra
I would like horse to be a vehicle as a quieter atv tho
I think you shouldn't expect them to put every invasive species there is onto Emerald Coast^^
I just wanna shoot a hippo and put it in my lodge
What are the whitetail drink times on SRP?
If I recall there is one specie of Zebra that is not endangered
Ah my bad, Plains AND Mountain Zebra can be hunted
Legally**
Does anyone have Colburn area unlocked
How long does a dead body stay on the map for?
From what I've tested It seems until I completely close the game
Until you harvest it or exit the session
Ah ok
Changing the time won't affect anything
Np
Imma just pop them and claim em later
Right
Do you guys prefer the 7mm or the 308 when hunting red deer? I feel like the 7mm drops the faster if they run but the extra ammo is also nice on the 308. Preferably I Want to maximize my chances on shorter drop times though.
308 makes for easier follow ups
If your grinding red deer
If you hit in the right places usually the red deer drop fairly quick
What rewards do you get from emerald coast missions
Or like what animals do you get to kill if any
I kinda wanna limit myself to only 1 shot. I'm shooting at lakes. Typically anything over 350 meters I have a hard time hitting accurately.
I have my tripods set to the right distance so if they heard gun shot they don't bolt off.
A second shot though they will run. That's why 1 shot is preferred because I have multiple groups in one area. I just wanna know if the 308 hits harder than the 7mm
Burchell's are my fave but I'd love to see mountain zebra in the game
Theyve got something funny with their throats going on
its a dewlap!
I really want greater kudu tbh
Honestly I hope they go for mountain zebras
And have a mount of two males fighting ik it's an overused concept for mtm but still (something like this)
Plus they do have some interesting markings on their back
I'd post an example but its an irl dead zebra and i dont have access to #🥩︴irl-hunting
I'll post a cropped ver
They have like
What would you call this
Its so cool looking
Pretty different from say a burchells
Zebra booty
Im talking about the stripes on the back
How do i turm om manual zeroing?
They look fairly different the back on burchells is a long stripe
Yea
On this one is little stripes going down
If you have the perk then press R1 on playstation
You have the PlayStation role so I assume you play on there
I miss clicked... I play on a patato pc
Oh
And on pc? How do i enable it
I think you can change it
I am not entirely sure
Oh ight np thanks tho
Np
I think you can change your role though if you click the PlayStation one again and then click the PC one
Il try it
What fur is that?
Or a mela
Leusistic or?
Golden/blonde
No
It's variation not sure what the fur type is but certain kinda zebras are naturally more yellow
Looks like a golden oreo
Pretty
Red
a zipper lmao
Whg tf is this in help and tips
Me neither
Back to #🦌︴general we go
i just got the game could some one help me ppls
If you're on xbox I can help you hunt some animals
na pc
Hello for layon lakes missions connors emily heart epk which hunting stand did you use
Check in #🦌︴find-a-game
Usually theres people there to help
Same - I've been watching a youtuber called Rooster and even though he doesn't explicitly do "tips and tricks" videos he does play through some of the stuff and talk about it :]
can someone maybe help me pin-point the approx. area of the bears in Balmont? and also... how do i get their 3 IDs?
What happens if I shoot all of the herd. Will another herd pop up again in the same zone?
I think the zone gets deleted
Does a new one pop up in the same area?
Eventually when you have hunting pressure somewhere else
Shift the HP by killing other things, and then yeah a new zone will show up in the area while you are around
Oh I don't mean by hunting pressure. I just mean if I end a heard if it will respawn back as the same herd around the same area
Or does the hunting pressure have to fully leave before new ones can spawn?
Not positive if the HP has to go - but it cant hurt
and yes a killed zone will respawn in the "area" -
Ah ok ty!
Guys if i buy the tents DLC where should i place it, at the moment i have only the 2 base map, but i think im gonna buy some of them
Anyone got any recommendations on what map to hunt whitetails the best and where?
Anywhere but normally at a body of water where they drink nearby
Does anyone know when the mission where you can harvest Mr black comes I have the emily hear elk mission and the Paul Beattie mission
Someone help me please lol.. I’m trying to start a white tail grind and have only found about 32 drink zones on Revontuli, mainly all my zones are up north. I’m really struggling to find zones in the center of the map, what am I doing wrong here?
guys i have to buy a first map and i dont know which is the best for farming, im new at the game, can you reccomend me one for starting? i already bought the dog and the tents DLC! i think im gonna buy the weapon pack 1 too
and some spot for the map you reccomend to me if you can
Map really depends on what you want to hunt, unffortunately
im searching one where i can farm and have fun at the same time
Thanks for the map, I’ve been using it, but for whatever reason this maps been different for me, usually I’m able to just sprint every where and find my zones, maybe I should try a more finesse approach?
Everyones map is different, the zones arent static - but they are 'thereabouts'
Lion is vurhonga savannha and deer moose ... Layton, Revontuli - those are both nice enough maps (and layton is free)
thats a white donkey
Savannah if you want to see the animals easily
Also because of variety
as is not deer/elk/coyote/fox/bear
out of curiosity which maps have goats or goats relatives? as far as i remember the spanish one does
Cuarto colinas has ibex
ok last time they reccomend me medved,yukon,te awaroa and emerald coast
te awaroa and ec have feral goats
Si(yes)
emerald also has variety, but since its a newer dlc its not that cheap
i just like the savannah tho
They’re all the same price iirc
yea in fact i prefer cheaper dlc
wait the sales are over?
All maps are $7.99 I believe
no no
but if you dont have any dlc, get master bundle, then whatever other bundle on steam but check which one is cheaper
someone can reccomend me the best from the ones i said?
then maybe get some other dlc
I understand how zones work, I’m saying I’ve checked just about every single lake and I still only have 32 zones.
i greatly recommend the power hunting pack or whatever
and which weapon dlc buy and if the treestand e tripod dlc is good
for the early access magnum
When will the sales be over
13 july
Is that when it's over.
yes
Alr thx hopefully I can get a epic games card probably gonna get tent and atv
i dont know whick mao to buy, and if is good buying weap pack 1 and treestand and tripods bundle can someone help me?
can you afford bundles?
There different ? I guess i gotta google
yes
I dont know, honestly. I can't explain how you only have 32 - I dont know how many zones you are supposed to have on Rev, or if the number can vary as well as the location tbh
get master then of the two others, since they will have the same dlcs, as you bought the others, get the cheapest one
but only after you bought master, so transaction completed etc
which is the master
im on epic games, idk if i have it man
then i cant assist you with this as i dont know if the same system works on epic lol
in steam is cheaper lol
Okay so I JUST asked Jaxy in his stream right this second
If there was a set number of drink zones per map - and he said there is NOT a set number per map
...
Thanks so much that makes so much since now!
My guy, game was free on epic but like, Steam sales are SO much kinder (and mroe frequent)
for who is on epic the sales end on 6/7
Thx
Of course!! Come hang out in the stream, ask some questions and get some answers! If he can he will answer to his best ability
if i buy the game on steam, can i share the already bought DLC on steam from epic?
nope, you can share your progress tho
having a dlc gun equipped might give problems tho
on the platform without dlcs
so i have to buy it another time on steam if i want the game on steam
yeah
What are the rare fur types in black bears
now what's done is done
can anyone give me some spots for hirschfelden to hunt fallow deer?
Cinnamon, brown and blonde
so should i buy the game on steam and buying the master pack from here?
yeah
i cant get refund of DLC on epic right?
I dont use Epic so I'm not sure, but def read on it before committing
yea im reading and im quite sure i cant get the refund
Heh random question but to yall GO grinders, how do u count ur kills?
but i spent 2,60 euro on it, so its not a big figure
After each area
I try to keep count either on a piece of paper
A notepad or somewhere on my phone
Kinda like this
Damn isnt that like really annoying to count at the end?
I see
There are other methods but that's what I do
May I ask the rare fur types for Merriam turkeys too?
Well thanks for telling me
Np
Leusistic melanistic and albino
May I ask what a super rare is tho?
Diamonds with rare fur types
Like an albino diamond fallow for example
still try it
if you can get those 2,60€ back, hey, thats 2,60 for another dlc on steam
hey, could someone tell me what I can do when my harvests are full
apparently I can taxidermize but I have to pay with cash...
idk what its useful for
Those are your saved harvests
You can only save a specific amount
Go into your trophy manager and delete some you don't need
Or don't want
Or just tax the ones in your saved harvests
flexing
can I sell them later or smth or is it just for display
do trophy lodges appear on exisitng maps or we have to host the lodge
Displaying commemorative moments - its a prestige/good memory thing. You get money for killing them regardless 🙂
Thanks!
I think you still get more money when harvesting so I still need to remove previous random kills
yea i will try
another question
Ask away 🙂
store the best kills for when you can taxi them
I hit 2 deers and I followed and harvested one, but do the tracks for the other one disappear?
yess Imma do that
they dont, good luck fiding it tho
I dont have great kills atm haha I just started out
oof
do they disappear in 10m or more like an hour
its not raining
yeah
Well they do I'm pretty sure once you go away
aghh
I followed this fallow deer for like 350m so Ig the other one is just gone
f
Go check where you shot it, its tracks should still be there.
I'll try but im afraid im going to just waste time
so back on my question, are lodges a separate map or part of an existing one
What map are bobwhite in again
Can you disassemble matmats muilt mounts?
anyone able to help me out on this?
cause this area is big!
Lodges or outposts/tents in single player
Tmk basically everywhere
the lodge or smth
No there's a free lodge and you can access the trophy manager in any Outpost or tent just got to be in single player
ah shit
Yeah I was confused as hell about it to almost to the point of I was wondering if it existed in the first place because I couldn't remember
is it just that its accessible in single player only or that my multiplayer progress doesnt count
yeah 😭
It's only it is only accessible in Single
It's not?
well its working for one animal but not for another
is it bcs i dont have enough cash
Yeah it only works for your very last one you have to save the harvest to be able to save to tax later
no I can tax others apparently
just not this red deer
nor a moose
wthhhh
i have 5.3k why cant i tax em
Its expensive to tax those animals
I think 7-8k?
In the meantime tho, cull foxes and wolves in Yukon!
I find them all over the Western side of the map particularly around trappers, the burned forest, and coppertop
😵
Why cant i see more of my rifle, is there a zoom back option
i think its FOV
go on options and you can find it as FIELD OF VIEW
nope the rifle doesnt move
idk so
i have to buy the game on steam with the master pack even if I already bought 2 bundles on epic because of much more good discounts
Because the hunter is carrying it in a way so that if it goes off it doesn’t put a hole in whatever’s in front of you
Aka how hunters carry rifles irl when they’re not about to shoot something
Ya this is how I carry my uncles rifle when we go hunting unless I get one with a sling on it then I just throw it over my shoulder and wait till we see a deer or get to the spot we r going to
i understand why the rifle is held in that direction, i want to know why i can see as much of my rifle like all streamers i have seen playing, the pic is an idea of what i mean
thats a screen shot of lady legends video
Fov?
Is she moving or standing still? It also might just be the gun
fov just move the screen around not the rifle
standing still, nope not the gun either
Oh idk then
TY anyways
Np
Should I buy the game from steam with the master pack even if I have already bought two DLCs on epic games? I would because of better and more frequent discounts
im quite sure im gonna do it
I will always recommend steam but that's just me
Doing the pack or not is on you tho
I personally like picking what DLCs I want from the list
Is gold fur type rare for wildebeest
Would it be worth it to taxi it?
Gotcha, Tks
How do these streamers have almost no recoil with their gun
Perks/skills knowing tricks to reduce recoil and just skill
Like if you let go from holding your breath immediately when you shoot you have less recoil
guys i bought just now the game on steam, when its ready i can conncet the account of epic with the steam account and it will share credits etc? or it will cause problems?
Anyone know what a Piebald Magpie goose looks like? Since they're two-toned black / white anyway I'm wondering how piebald will look.
Question on tripods....
How many kills would it take to ruin the zone on a tripod?
If the zone has no HP to start with
12 I believe
Oh wow
Iirc 16
With a bow it's impossible
It's some stupidly high number of like 64 or something but there's only a certain amount you can actually have on the map at one time
Lol
Every animal has to drink at some point right. I feel like some of them don’t show up to the drink zones sometimes
does anyone have emily heart elk done if so what hunting stand did you use
I went around to every one in the area and then looked around them for feed zones before setting one up
can you show me the area on ur map
It should outline the area you have to be in if you have the mission selected
How close can a blind be to an animal without them spooking?
I believe it’s 8 meters regardless of how hidden you are
My most Damaged shot yet XD 80m+ with a bow THO!
after what rating do crocs get diamond?
😢
SO GET THIS, IF THE HEAD GET DAMAGED FROM BEHIND YOU STILL GET TROPHY CHECK
sorry caps!
Skull isn't a trophy organ for crocs and gators
So you'd pass the check regardless
oh really? I thought head is trophy on all animals
Not on gators, crocs, any class 1, and raccoons iirc
good to know THX
Im getting only females any tips?
That’s just rng unfortunately I used an elk caller and a bull just walked right up to me
Lmao ig I'll just try another day or sumthing
so just got back on the game since the new map, what species got reset
finally!
Congratz!
You should definitely post that in #🦌︴trophies for peeps to admire
pls guy help, how to disactivate the night vision on binocular/sight?
I don't think it deactivates
I wanna think this is a Mal but I'm not sure. Imma wait to take her down though because I just started my fallo grind. What do you guys think? Should I take her now or should I wait? Or is she not mal?
That’s def Mela
can anyone give me some spot for hunting in one of this map? i have medved taiga, vurhonga savanna, silver ridge, revontuli coast
Feed zones and water zones
Does anyone know how rare is the tan whitetail deer?
What gun and ammo can i use for pass the harvest check on a Gemsbok?
u can check it on codex (im not in the game i cant help rn)
where is konigsberg lake?
what ammo is class 8 ?
Isnt konisberg lake the big body of water
i dont know, it isnt labeled
IM playing on mississipi acre. and I have a question. teh skill "Who's Deer" can atract any of the animals of mississipi, which ones and what are the callers?
and someone have a list of "who's deer?" effects?
I think it moreso is.. If you used a deer grunt, it might attract an animal that isnt normally interested in that.
But I think it can apply to ALL the callers - not any specific one of two of them
At its base, killing animals will cuse them to respawn a little better or a little worse than what they are now.
So.. Kill a L3 Sambar, and it could respawn as L2, L3 or L4
Pretty much just kill stuff to encourage respawns
Klling closer to max lv will encourage a better respawn.. So like L3 Fallow, to eventually respawn a L4
L4 Fallow to eventually respawn L5
So they respawn on a -1/+1 basis?
more or less yes
we dont have exact figures because data mining = bad, but general understanding is that it is so
Any callers that attract raccoon and tanuki?
There is a dedicated raccoon caller. The second animal, not sure what that is
Raccoon dog
In rev coast
Where can i get the raccoon caller? Any specific map I need to buy? I'm assuming missisippi lol
I say tanuki instead (because yes they're called that) as to not confuse them with raccoon HUNTING dogs. (Which dosent apply in this context but its been a habit of mine before i got into cotw)
How many missions in will I funnaly get hope sick papa bear?
Someone?
So I'm a new hunter here. Currently grinding Roosevelt elk at silver ridge. If I have a herd of 2's, 3's and 4's, which ones should I be taking down to get higher level spawns?
To grind u need tent and at least 20 spots
more efficient
I'm aware of that but for now I'm just curious on the herd management aspect. Still confused by it.
Shoot the lvl 3 and 4
Do you need to pay for tents?
Yes, its a dlc
Tents are dlc yes
Thank you! So leave the 2s git it
Tents are like 16k a piece
I think so yes i havent done much herd management myself
But basically it encourages respawns
The lvl 4 could respawn as a lvl 5
Oor it could shrink down to a 3
Awesome good to know. I'm not even level 20 yet so I'm not expecting any miracles rn
Those, I believe are attracted to the predator jackrabbit caller
srry for that dumb question what if i hit a lvl 2 with a lvl idk 8 munition
Uh probably not the best thing
Does anyone have a picture of a albino or Mel feral pig?
Hmm was watching lady legends videos on YouTube and she talked about it.
Is there some kinda of form or website I can look at all the different fur types?
I know wild boar have melanistic, but not feral pig
What's the spawn rate of male Roosevelt elk
Are you doing herd management? Or wondering?
Wondering
I'm unsure then
I have to kill a bull elk on a hunting stand for a mission but im getting only females lol
You might try killing some of the females to spawn in males.
It worked for me a few times.
I'll do that thanks
Dang forgot how beautiful the elks were
Under my understanding animals are replaced by the same sex
Hi everyone! What grounded means? Do i have to shoot it in the air? ( i know i used the wrong weapon)
Yes, you have to shoot them in the air
Oh thats sad
Also its hard
Is the lvl 3 the diamond level?
No you can shoot it on the ground you just used the wrong ammo type for the bird
If you don’t want the grounded thing you have to shoot it in the air.
.308 is for classes 4-8 and the bird was class 1 use like a .22 for class 1’s
Technically they can be shot on the ground yes.
however you will not get a trophy score for it.
Shooting them mid flight will give you max score/max trophy score
and yes, L3 is the Dime level for Pheasants
But you won’t get the trophy score 🤦♂️
Yes
Oh tyk beat me to it
Sure did 
Im really sad rn
Use birdshot shotgun shells as they descend from the air
There will always be another. You’ll get one eventually
i use the zarza
Don't wait til they are descending, because that ALSO counts as grounded lately
my luck is high today, got 2 piebald deers
Lyra lost a Dime that way
Thank you all
Each weapon has a specific class for different animals and you won’t get trophy with .308 if you use it on class 1’s like pheasant
i used it by my fault, i wrote it, i didnt want to use .308
the other zarza
What is max roosevelt elk level?
.22LR
5
5
thx
Yea that one’s good
this is my favorite way to shoot all Class 1.
Virant .22lr
I like it too
I usually hunt for turkeys at Silver Ridge with it
eventually you will take shots like this
120m mid flight
If i hit
Ptarmigan
If I'm honest, I wasnt sure I would make that one, there was lots of tree in the way
I believe expansion and penetration - tbh I have used the Truncated cones and the hollowpoint with equal success
which one is more accurate?
okay 🙂
They both have the same accuracy but penetration is usually more important in this game for any ammo type
Maybe what was happening to me is I was killing males and females. The females and males could have switch herds? Could be a theory.
Easier to hit lungs
okay, thanks
It’s probably just the fact you haven’t found all the drink zones and they’re respawning in another zone
I don't have an issue with it. It was the other guy but could be. I think he just found one zone....
Also question....
Let's say I have an albino red deer. Is there anything in the game that could potentially despawn it?
Like an update or anything i could do to make it despawn?
Does the .308 shoot very flat? How is it compared to the 7mm?
If my Animal let's say is 200 meters is it better to use 300 zeroing or 150
Why do you want to do that?
150m and aim slightly (really just slightly) up
Emphasis on slightly. You don't need to correct much, if at all, at 50m diff I think
All your animals should stay the same. I believe there was a case in the past where the servers were wiped and the animals on a map were all respawned I don’t remember why though
OK thanks

hi, i am new to the game and on the third mission (Stocking up). and it wont let me interact with the lookout point, on my phone it says visit an outpost that i am currently standing in. what am i doing wrong?
Started kill all female elk I seen yet I still haven't seen a male should I try a diff spot?
hi, i am new to the game and on the third mission (Stocking up). and it wont let me interact with the lookout point, on my phone it says visit an outpost that i am currently standing in. what am i doing wrong?
You already interacted with it I think since its white
it says (visit an outpost)
on the phone
Go find another one then! They should be marked with a similar icon on your map but green
ohhhh my bad i was in a lookout post not a outpost
okay
Theres one by a lake not far from the petershain cornfields (assuming this is hirschfelden)
i placed a mark on the map and im going to it now
thanks
Heads up
This is hirschfelden right?
If you see any level 5 fallow deer, wild boar, etc. shoot it. it could be diamond!
Or lvl 3 roe deer.
For red fox and red deer, look for lvl 9s.
Difficulty* not level but i guess theyre kinda the same thing
Best of the luck
Yea
Best luck
For layton lake, whitetail deer, ducks, turkeys and rabbits get to level 3
Everything else, like moose and elk, goes to 5
With the exception of bears and coyote, which go to 9.
aren't there 10
With bears, elk, moose, and red deer, id bring a 7mm magnum.
Yes! These are "Great Ones"!
i just have the stock guns
Great ones are an incredibly rare spawn characterized by higher than normal weight, large, often non-typical antlers for the deer species, unique fur types and a level of 10 - Fabled
All animals that can get to level 10 - fabled currently are: red deer, fallow deer, moose, black bear, and whitetail deer
Here is an example of a Great One
Its weird how max level for whitetail is 3 then BOOM 10 fabled
"black" bear
Oh even normal black bears irl come in a ton of colors
"Black bears come in more colors than any other North American mammal. They can be black, brown, cinnamon, blond, blue-gray, or white."
Blue gray or white are featured
Here #1119837861508821103
black* bears
*color may vary
Id argue wolves come in more colors tbh
#1114692251096989726
not my words thats why the ""
How can a black bear be brown then it's a black brown bear
what do i kill a black bear with
They are a class 7
meaning?
600gr arrow
you need ammo that can take a class 7. Like the Malmer 7mm for example takes classes 4-9
ah
whats the best way to gain Exp?
do in game missions, unlock all the things on maps, then killing stuff imo
ok
sup
Me proceeds to kill 1000 red deer to find out the average
XD
But even then you'd probably have to find someone that would be willing to kill the low levels.... as many people only kill high ones due to herd management.
Can someone show me a map of all silver ridge outposts
Keep on grinding
So i know where to look
Ty
i just shot a rabit with a pistol and the the throphy rating is 3.13, but it says silver 2.88? was it bronze because i shot it with improper ammo?
If the ammo symbol is red it means you used the wrong kind of ammo
It was but i didn't know what else to use, also how does the trophy system works
The animal should have a number on it.
And the ammo should have a number as well. If the ammo matches the number on the animal you know you can use it.
The trophy system works by rng. Sometimes your shooting effects the ratting. Sometimes it's how much the animal weighs, the size of their rack. All these things factor into the rating.
Ok thx
Np good luck man!
The number at the top left is the ammo i should use?
If you look at my fox I shot if you look at it closely you'll see all but one of the symbols are blue.
The one symbol with the heart means it's not shot in an vital organ....
In your case it's ammo if you look at the fox details to the left youll see the class
The fox is a class 2 so it needs class 2 ammo to properly kill it right.
If you don't pass all of the necessary symbols you could mess up your trophy rating.....
This is why diamonds can be golds....
And golds silvers
And silvers bronze....
hi
i've been hunting caribou for some time in the yukon valley, but i don't know exactly how to grind yet, i'd like to get a diamond
Is there a right way to grind or just hunting every animal of the species and can it work? idk
Despawn an Albino red deer?
What’s the best gun to buy to just kill all animals? Wanna be able to kill most things with the same gun
is the mission on hirschfelden where you have to take a picture of a fallow deer bugged?
I recommend the 7mm, for the price it kills a lot of animals
I dont want to despawn any rares. Thats why im asking what are ways to do it so i dont.
is the fastest way to lvl up to just harvest kills or is it specific animal that are just better?
can anyone recommend me good places to hunt geese in hirschfelden pls
I like to think doing herd management has made me more money. I'm doing red stags and they give anywhere between 900 to 1500 usually
Not sure if there's a better animal though
Just posting this here if anyone needs anatomy references
More anatomy refs ft. black bears, bison and mule deer
Just for the newer players, thought this might be useful
brown bear example, hit a little higher than i did if ya want the heart!
side view with the bear facing the player
That'll be all i hope these help someone pass the harvest check and get a diamond today
Hello, what map can i find red deer
Short of shooting them, I don't think so.
Feed zones. Cornfields , strawfields. Wherever they fly over. Sounds weird, but try laying prone on a rock or use tripod / treestand for vantage.
If u scare an animal away far from its need zone will it eventually come back if i call it from a hunting stand
A lot of them but te awaora is one of the best ones
Is this the recent updated one?
does it matter where u place ur tripod or does it have to be far from zones
for them to not detect u
A good rule of thumb is 250 Meters.
250 from animals when you shoot
250 on the tents to the tripods
fuck okay ty
I have one lake spot where all 4 of my drinking zones are at least 250 meters away so I don't spook them
does it matter if it’s in the open or not
Typically you want your tripods to maximize view
okay
Because you can't move
And there might be trees in the way preventing you from taking a good shot.
Sometimes adding an extra tripod nearby has also helped me get outside of the 250 meters so I can take the first herd without spooking the others as well.
Not necessarily needed but can help if your drink zones are in weird spots.
If you're changing time, how close your tents are doesn't matter. I go my tent, set rest to 15 min ahead of zone time, head to my tripod. Unless therew's a zone overlap, I don't spook anything.
for further anatomy help for newer players
No idea why i keep posting these things but if it helps someone then GREAT
No clue
They actually do because if you place your tents too close to animals they won't render in....
250 meters is just generally a safe distance
Several people have had this problem including me.
Whats max weight estimate for roosevelt elk
Got any good kangaroo anatomy shots?
Never had a single issue with animals rendering in if I rest after going to my tent. Have, in fact, had them render right next to my tent.
just headshot the first low one you come across and you'll have the detailed view in 3d (and thus way more detailed than any screenshot could ever hope to be) 😉
can anyone hop in a multiplayer game with me and show me the ins and outs of the game since i just downloaded it yesterday and im having some problems reaching animals before they run away
A 150m zeroing means the bullet will hit on the crosshair at 150m
You can absolutely shoot at further ranges than that, but you may need to compensate for bullet drop
If the target is at 130m will it hit on 0 or over 0?
Is a 7mm, 223 and 12g with birdshot a good combination of weapons?
hello, why is it that when I enter the game the black image remains blocked?
If I understand it properly, if you are aiming for 130 and zeroed for 150, you need to aim down slightly - but like not a lot
Best to practice at firing ranges
I believe so
hello, why is it that when I enter the game the black image remains blocked? @tribal ledge
I'm not sure what you mean by the black image
Can you send a screenshot?
hey, when I'm hosting a map in multiplayer can other players unlock/destroy need zones?
I'll get one soon
another moose one for yall
gonna get a kangaroo one here in a bit
i actually suggest shotgunning any aggressive roos lmao
(Mostly because its funny)
roo anatomy, do not shoot it where i did
A ball shoot 🥚🥚🔫
can someone help me with mission on hirschelden?
i need to hunt a red deer with gold rating
but i can find better red deer than lvl 6 which is silver
Look to find people to play with in #🦌︴find-a-game
But on multi i cant do mission i think
Riiiight. You cannot.
I mean. If it's mission based, folks can't really 'help'
Shoot level 7s and 8s those will be golds
Does killing 1 doe/female ruin a g1 grind?
lets hunt something smaller! hog anatomy
nah
fox
what does dogs howl do
hello hunters,
my friend got the game on Steam and Epic. Everything is working perfectly fine, but there is one major problem.
He cant login to avalanche apex connect, not on steam and also not on epic.
When he is starting the game there is no "Popup" which says "please login to use multiplayer" (in my case and of another friend we got this window every time, until we logged in)
Can anyone help?
we tried everything. Reinstalled the game, deleted documents folder, unlinked steam cloud, switched from offline to online mode, deactivated firewall and antivir......
would be so thankful for any solutions..
Good hunting!
Ever so slightly high. Usually not enough to make a difference tho
I have to check in case i forget to.zero or an animal gets aggresive
Do you mean in a topographical sense?
yea im mean hills and dips
Uhmm no I think the color varies depending on the terrain
Hold ill show examples
SRP vs LL
Like yeah I guess the ridges and pointiest peaks have a lighter tint? But overall I think the coloring depends solely on the map itself
ok ty , see im hunting with bow and when you need to get close , you dont wanna end up in some dip 30 m from your target
As a person who always has a bow on deck, I understand fully haha
Got moose for medved?
What dlcs are essensial to buy? Like weapons, maps, etc? I’m on ps5
I don't unfortunately
Are chocolate fallow rare?
Uncommon, with a lower chance of showing up. You will see more.
Ok thanks
Rares for Fallow are Melanistic (all black), Albino (all white with pink nose) and Piebald (spotted brown and white) which there are two versions I have seen.
So white fallow are not rare?
Those are like Chocolate, lower chance of appearing, so uncommon
Ok so no new rare fur for fallow
There is a second version of piebald, there was one before
Drink times are often the most easy to hunt, 10:30 - 13:00 for drink zone times (Fallow)
Ok and crocs?
Sorry i usually hunt from the cotw app but they dont have the new map
(Have not really got to hunt crocs due to Data Corruption on Playstation keeping me off EC) But from what I have seen, they are on the coast on the right side of the map, in the rivers close to the coast. I think they should be out at almost any time, but go at day because they are hostile and can mob you.
Watch a video like this, it has all the drink zone times and common locations for the animals on EC: #📢︴creator-videos message
Where u get the pics
For the record, we dont use percentages when speaking of fur types as it can be seen as datamined info which is against the rules
ProXCK created them. Iirc he has them within his community but also within his videos
ok, fixed
Thank you~
How to go about animal respawns is there a way tobget them to spawn back quicker
pick up your kills, sleep through to next zone cycle
Can Xbox and Playstation players play with eachother?
I am not positive if console to console can play
There is no crossplay between consoles
tg
Ik there’s a GO red deer and whitetail… is there any other GOs?
thank you - I wasn't positive
Whitetail, red deer, black bear, moose and fallow deer
Thanks
could i have some help
State the problem
What was the update for?
Tyvm
What would be a good map to start off? I only have the base game but i can join servers and see
Well base game I would say I found Hirschfelden to be the best money maker for me. And the map feels alot more open due to fields.
should i do a grind spot for making money? if yes which species?
Red deer give me 800 to 1600 cash each kill. Plus they're pretty good since they gather in large groups at watering holes in New zeland
And other maps
Tbh i've been struggling to even get close to animals, seems like they flee a lot from me and idk why
can u give me the name of the map? and the spots if u have it?
Find their drink zones and their feed zones. You can easily kill them since they rely on these zones and will always show up on time.
New zelands map and Australia Emerald Coast
Forgot the name of new zelands map starts with a T
And the four lakes at the top right
TE Awaroa
You don't have to buy it for red deer
There's also Hirschfelden
i already have vuronga savanna, medved taiga, silver ridge coats and revontuli
I don't have a picture for the drink zones though
but for fallow deer yes right?
Fallowdeer are on Many maps
They're also on Hirschfelden
Just travel to the field during their feed times or to the river during their drink times
Great way to farm them for free
ok, should i place tent on some drinking spot? for be faster?
if you teleport you scare animals on a 200m radius
Place it 250 meters away.
This is the safer bet
Although you might even do 275
ok
But I do 250 and rhey render in just fine
how many spot i need?
As many as you want to hunt
Not sure how many red deer there are on Hirschfelden
But on new zeland there's around 70 to 80
Ehh maybe 60 idk just guessing
ok, i bought the master pack before so which gun is better to shoot them?
Not sure which guns that comes with but I use the .308 or the 7mm I also have heard the 30 30 was good or maybe it was the 300 I can't remember 😂
I just use the 308 now
But the 7mm still hits hard
Just 1 shot in the mag unfortunately
Yes it's base game
do i need tripods?
Yes and no
You can do it without it just fine
However
It will make their drink zones change
And they will move to other areas
Tripods give you stability
You can keep killing and not really have to worry
Where as hunting on foot makes hunting pressure..... not fun
If you're serious about the game I would say it's a need
But if you're just casually playing its more of a want.
i like playing the game... so if i need it i will buy it
but i see Te Awarowa it's a must have map for some animal's
you dont have pressure with tripods?
does the same apply to the random stuff on the map that you can buy?
In my opinion get new zeland if you want to hunt red deer and fallowdeer. If you want a better map in general go with Australia
i keep etting 7s, and i feel like im at a block
like the highest ive gotten is a 7 and i cant find any red deer that are higher
Yes it does but shooting on ground is Like 4x the amount of HP than in a tripod
Do you herd manage?
Im on an early main mission for the Taiga and I cant find this wounded Raindeer to harvest. Any suggestions? I have trekked all through the yellow field that is highlighted for the mission.
Thanks!
What Time do bison drink on Yukon
whats herd manage!!!!?????
What’s here management?
All my tents and tripods have disappeared tents back to my ventory but my 16 tripods are gone any help
any tips to grind fallow?
Ok I'll try to explain it the best way I can.
-Herd management-
1st find your zones on the animal you're hunting. Drinking zones are generally better because more groups will be available to shoot since they generally go to the Same area where as feed zones they are spread out.
-
Set up your tripods roughly 250 meters away from drink zones as the animals will not scare away when you shoot from 250 meters. This allows you to take multiple shots from the tripod without scaring animals.
But if you fire more than once within 10 seconds I've noticed animals do spook within that distance.... so if I have more than one drink zone nearby I don't fire more than once per zone. -
Tents set your tent around 250 meters from any drink zone. This enables you to properly have enough distance between you and the animals to render in correctly.
-
Choose your favorite zones and zones you don't want to shoot at. A good start I'd say on starting off is 3 to 4 zones. 3 zones you shoot and 1 zone you put your low levels on.
-
Stacking is when you choose not to kill high levels so lower levels have a better chance at respawning in places where you don't want to shoot as much.
At your bad drink zone.
This allows higher levels to have a better chance at respawning higher at your good drink zones.
Hope this helps! Took me 10 minutes to write xD
