Try the heart

hidden basin
onyx plinth
#

not ideal but still within the class at least, im still saving up for money

analog grail
#

A heart shot will do the job

#

It will die in like 4 secs

blazing zinc
#

you can heart shot it, head on, from below - with soft point. but you have to be right on it.

#

below like, prone on ice and it's walking towards you

#

hello! i'm really new to this game (just bought it) and i cant seem to find any animals anywhere. I've only ever killed one deer, and it spawned right in front of me when the game began. what can i do?

analog grail
#

What time is it on the map?

sonic sphinx
#

12:57

analog grail
#

Also are u on layton or hirchfelden?

sonic sphinx
#

hirchfelden

analog grail
#

Swap over to Layton

sonic sphinx
#

okay

#

thanks

analog grail
#

Layton is the easier map

#

Then go to the lake that gonna be about a km in front of u when u spawn

sonic sphinx
#

Are there a lot of animals there?

analog grail
#

Yes

#

U should be able to find some whitetail,shoot behind the shoulder

sonic sphinx
#

also, any tracking tips? I've spent a while tracking animals and just not found anything

analog grail
#

What platform do u play on?

sonic sphinx
#

PC

analog grail
#

U may be able to find someone on pc to give u all the outpost

sonic sphinx
#

Do outposts have a lot of animals near?

#

Idk what an outpost really is, sorry

analog grail
#

Outposts act as fast travel locations so u can navigate the map faster

#

Hi, Just wondering, I'm New Here, What is the best Map?

analog grail
#

Mexico it comes out june 29th for pc and it comes out sometime in July on consoles for 7.99$

No fckn clue

analog grail

#

i have a 35.5 bull on my wall of shame, kinda wanted to know if i even could get something smaller

fresh thunder
analog grail
#

Depends on what species u want to hunt

fresh thunder
hidden basin
#

What the best map is depends a lot on who you ask and what species they primarily hunt

analog grail
#

True

hidden basin
#

For instance, I live and breathe Medved

analog grail
#

My personal favorite is cautro

#

I'm weird I know 😂

hidden basin
#

Nah

fresh thunder
#

cuatro kinda sick ngl

hidden basin
analog grail
hidden basin
#

Whitetail is less weird than lynx

analog grail
#

Perhaps

hidden basin
#

great ones are overrated anyways. Rare lynx is where it’s at

analog grail
#

Super rare lynx are where its at

hidden basin
#

Don’t tempt me

fresh thunder
hidden basin
#

I’ve killed more lynx during my rare grind than vivid has whitetail during his GO grind😛

analog grail
#

I'm about 1300 total

hidden basin
#

Hey, so am I!

Only difference is I barely play anymore

How do you get the range shight for bow

hidden basin
#

High tech hunting pack DLC

onyx plinth
#

everyone seems to recommend solokhin but for some reason it does not even have polymer tip ammo, any good reason to use it ?

edgy tree
#

Thx

hidden basin
onyx plinth
#

is it good sub for .270 tho ? I feel like it's only better if you can get better positioning

hidden basin
#

Apples and oranges. .270 does not cover class 3’s, while the solokhin does

torpid garden
#

I'm new to this game and I really enjoy it. I want to know what maps are the best and what weapons are the best (For like small/medium/big animals). Can anyone help me with that?

torpid garden
#

Not all of them

#

But most

#

And they’re all like 60% off until tomorrow

#

So if I don’t have it I’ll just get it

#

Ive come to the end of some bear tracks and like the "indicators" say just now but alast no bear. Is this supposed to happen?

pine ore
pine ore
#

410 meters

#

Not exactly sure

small ore
#

if i set up a tent near a need zone and just like wait it out will that work?

brittle summit
#

?

#

fast travel to the zone early so you dont spook animals there

#

tents spook in 150m radius when fast travelling

#

and 250m when placing

lofty bluff
#

where is the spreadsheet with feeding times and such

#

nvm

onyx plinth
#

anyone knows if the whitlock 86 lever action is worth an upgrade from the .243

tranquil tundra

It's powerful, but at the cost of range.

#

geese spots?

toxic bane
#

Oh I can answer that

brittle summit
#

is there any difference to the decoys for geese

#

feeeding

#

sentry

#

etc

toxic bane
#

they just look different~

brittle summit
#

ah

toxic bane
#

so there's a lot of potential spots for goose huntin

brittle summit
#

also, im teaching my brother how to play rn

#

he's lvl 1

toxic bane
#

but these are the ones that I like to use

brittle summit
#

also, 20ga or .22

#

can only fit one

toxic bane
#

I don't know how you can only fit one

#

once you finish setting up the weight of the decoys and the tents, etc will go away

#

I really like the 20ga semi auto

#

.22LR is nice for faraway targets

brittle summit
#

time to test out my atv

toxic bane
#

you know what

#

am I allowed to post videos from CC members?

#

someone yell at me if this is not allowed, but here

#

this is from Flinter

#

has a good bit of info on setting up goose hunting spots

brittle summit
#

turns out, pistols are quite large

verbal bane
#

How can I actually find animals on xbox

brittle summit
#

crouch

#

be quiet,

#

look at need zones, etc

opaque forum
#

any tips on best place to grab black bear pics for a mission in Balmont?

#

been camping a need zone for them, prone not moving wind is facing me not direction of zone, but they never seem to come 😛

verbal bane
#

How to you get early access

brittle summit
pine ore
#

I would use that

#

If the black bear isn’t there at all then maybe look for another zone

tranquil tundra
#

how does the .338 perform compared to the .300? It looks like the ammo has better stats

spring girder
#

It has a bit better stats, but in practice the .300 is capable to do anything the .338 can, but it has 5 rounds in the mag which can be a huge advantage.

tranquil tundra
#

ooh now I see the one-shot limt

brittle summit
#

.338 is a buffed 7mm?

tranquil tundra
#

one that's restricted to 7-9, basically

brittle summit
#

ah

#

what time for most animals on vurhonga

toxic bane
brittle summit
#

please

toxic bane
brittle summit
#

also are rare geese rare?

tranquil tundra
#

I've yet to see a melanistic goose

#

...and tbh I rarely see a variant that isn't brown hybrid

brittle summit
#

i think mela are not modeled to be mela

tranquil tundra
#

honestly not sure if a melanistic diamond would be considered a SR though

brittle summit
#

then again idk what mela goose looks like

brittle summit
#

irl tho

tranquil tundra
#

O

#

...well

brittle summit
#

good for my eyes right

tranquil tundra
#

it's accurate, apparently

brittle summit
#

oh

#

black head not feathers

#

im bored

#

cant find geese

fierce wave
#

And it is one male and one female the female was my first rare goose

humble orbit
#

Is a Dilute mule deer considered a rare I originally thought so but I just got my 5th one so I’m starting to think it’s not that rare

humble orbit
#

Thanks

fierce wave
humble orbit
#

I was getting really excited because it was a big gold also but then noticed it was diluted instead

small ore
#

are there albino varients of all animals

brittle summit
#

most animals

toxic bane
small ore
#

aww no moose

toxic bane
#

moose do have albino

small ore
#

ohhh

#

without

toxic bane
#

yes

small ore
#

thank you

toxic bane
#

yisyis

small ore
#

are you more likely to find better animals further away from reserve spawn?

toxic bane
#

nah

#

it's pure RNG

small ore
#

i cant find nothing but level 2 minor moose

brittle summit
#

is black gold rare on piggies ( te awaora)

hidden basin
#

No. It’s rare on boars, not on feral pigs

#

You see black gold on give or take a third or a fourth of male feral piggies

#

@brittle summit

small ore
#

so do animals just avoid pink zones

hidden basin
#

Hunting pressure makes animals less likely to spawn/respawn there. Build up enough pressure and you’ll delete need zones and make existing animals avoid that area

small ore
#

ah okay

hidden basin
small ore
#

so basically, Duck hunting, You find a place with ducks, you kill the ducks and set up, No ducks turn up because of the pressure so you have to relocate

pine ore
#

You can delete pressure

hidden basin
#

Yeah, pressure goes away as it gets added elsewhere

#

So you can simply have multiple ducc setups and rotate between them

#

@small ore

#

In fact that’s good practice for any animal

tranquil tundra
#

question regarding the mission "A Crowning Achievement"

#

considering that there's no designated mission area

#

do I have to take a picture of an ibex on that hill, or can it be anywhere?

hidden basin
#

I took mine on a lake adjacent to that hill

#

Beware tho

#

You need to get REALLY close to the ibex for the pic to count

#

@tranquil tundra

tranquil tundra
#

Yeah I know

#

I got by this one before I reset

#

I'm set up right on top of a rest zone rn

charred valley
#

is there a away to quick hide and bring back hud ? like a button]

tender ingot
#

Just got bloodhound today, what are the recommended skills to go with for it?

pine ore
#

I would recommend experimenting with its skills, if you don’t like the outcome then you can buy another dog

#

You can also have a dog for hunting and another for other purposes

#

@tender ingot

charred valley
#

No like the health and wind etc in corner

you can toggle it in settings

My brother told me to come here for hopefully some help with a COTW issue.
I have tried absolutely everything i know to try. I just bought and downloaded on steam. I launch the game, i get the few loading screens fine, and all of my audio is fine. as soon as i get to the main menu or even into a map, i lose ALL system audio. Game audio dies. Discord audio dies. Youtube/twitch audio dies. i legit cant hear ANYthing. every 30 seconds or so i will get a millisecond of sound but thats literally it.

I have a go xlr mini. reset / reinstalled all drivers and did tons of online research and came up with NOTHING>...... any help is greatly appreciated..

tranquil tundra
#

Def a computer problem

#

wouldn't be affecting other programs if it was a game issue

shut igloo
#

No other game or program has the same eaffect. as soon as i close the game, i regain all audio

tranquil tundra
#

Something might be incompatible then

blazing zinc
#

I've had games mess us entire system audio. I was using a usb to 1/4 mono at the time. sometimes things get weird. you could try disconnecting all but a basic audio output (like 1/8 headphones) and see if that works. then build your way back up from there if it does.

brittle summit
#

How rare are max weight diamonds?

hidden basin
#

pretty rare

brittle summit
#

lol

#

only got 3 max with 100+ diamonds

#

how rare are max weight fallow

fierce wave
#

Okay question is an animal's max weight the max estimate? (Meant to ask this here)

hidden basin
#

Varies by gender, but the absolute max for the species is the top of the max estimate

fierce wave
#

Okay so on female European bison I found one with a high estimate 106~164 and it had a weight estimate up to 1366 lb and I was curious to know if that is Max female weight or does Max female weight fall around that area

#

It ended up weighing 1092lb

charred valley
#

ok so every so often it wont let me switch barrels on the drilling

delicate niche
#

Yeah that’s a known issue

#

No fix for it

#

Yet

last hemlock
#

how do i remove hunting pressure bc it is annoying me

hidden basin
#

this is why zone rotation is important: to make sure you are not building up too much pressure in one area of the map

#

its better to kill a few animals at a bunch of zones than a bunch of animals at a few zones

last hemlock
#

ok

#

thanks bro

Where is a great spot for Ronda ibex?

are any melanistic animals rare?

#

Daaaaamn

last hemlock
#

i have obtained a paysafecard

#

what dlc should i buy?

slate hazel
#

How do you guys know when to stop running after a wounded animal ? and begin sneaking again ? Feels like I do this way too long and I just spook them almost endlessly

gleaming lintel
#

generally speaking if the scat/poop track says "just now" you are close enough to spook them

#

id start walking/sneaking at "very fresh"

#

if they are wounded but wont die you can just wait for them to come back to their zone, they usually will eventually

#

if they are going to die eventually you might as well just run after them it wont make much difference at that point

slate hazel
#

Yes if I hit a vital I just sprint after them no worries

#

but I had to chase after a wounded mythical red deer for 2 hours yesterday

gleaming lintel
#

if you mess up a shot on a diamond potential or rare you can quit to main menu and reload as long as the animal doesnt die it should reappear unharmed lol

slate hazel
#

and it seemed to never stop trotting away

gleaming lintel
#

yeah you probably hit him somewhere he wasnt going to die, usually in that case i just leave it and let it come back to its zone

slate hazel
#

Ho so they do (almost?) always come back where you shot them

#

good to know

gleaming lintel
#

as long as it was in a zone yeah it should do if it doesnt die

finite geode
#

i wonder can animals kill you in the hunter classic?>

gleaming lintel
#

if theres lots of hunting pressure it might not right away, and if its right at the end of the zone time sometimes they dont come back

finite geode
#

🤔

shrewd hare
finite geode
#

im sure bears and wolves attack you

#

could mooses attack you too?

Is there currently a bug with footstep audio? I'm always one bar louder than my friend when we're next to each other doing the same movements. No backpacks, I have the first level of the quiter footstep perk and he doesn't

may be the vegetation you're going through

behind the shoulder should get a lung

#

hitting any vital guarantees the animal will die

small ore
#

how far behind coz they have the plates in the way which are non vital

hidden basin
#

the ideal is just behind the crease that the foreleg has with the torso

small ore
#

so quite low on the torso?

last hemlock
small ore
#

ok ok that helps thank you

last hemlock
hidden basin
#

heart will be an instant or near-instant drop, but you'd need a frontal shot to have the best chance at hitting it

down in 1 stomach and liver

liver counts as vital, so you're good to aim a little farther back

It's a thing that had happened over the years. Resetting skills / perks have given extra points or something along those lines. I've seen other creators and players who've played for long and have reset their skills often have extra points.

thats kinda unfair well only cost me about 70k $ but its okay 🙂 🥲

whats the drop off for the air rifle

when does it start

at what range is it no longer a straight shot? at what range does the bullet start to drop off?

the air rifle has the trajectory of a rainbow

hitting a red fox from 150 is gonna be a little bit of a challenge then

now ive hit a lynx at 183m with it

150 is kinda beyond its effective range tho. 100m is its max zeroing

with the argus scope at max zoom, each dot is 25m

like game crashing, or Steam issue if PC?

You'll have to manually move or delete your save file

i try it

Yeah it sucks when things break that badly

wich saves are broken COTW or thHunter...

the save files are kept in the COTW file

try a full reinstall

uninstall, manually delete everything that doesn't get removed, then reinstall

depends on where the tent is, I think

rated for class 4-8

keep the rangemaster for moose

# last hemlock Best gun is muzzleloader

Muzzleloader is good but it can only take one animal from a herd. Most of the game is grinding respawns so if you can only take down one animal at a time it doesn’t work for grinding. But yeah the power is insane

#

It should be rated 4-9 actually. They need to change that

last hemlock
#

with the full reload speed perk and the full scope speed perk it isnt bad at all

fallow cairn
#

Maybe if they flee then come back. It’s super inefficient compared to a gun with 5 in the mag

last hemlock
#

no?

#

i can reliably hit fleeing shots

#

its not a hard gun to use

vocal cypress
#

It really depends on if you have the perks, if you’re not at that point in the game where you have those perks it may be a little more difficult to reliably take out more than one animal at a time

#

Although I have had quite a bit of success with the muzzleloader, especially against bigger creatures like moose, bison, and Cape buffalo

last hemlock
#

i use it against pretty much anything

#

from lynx to mule deer

#

whatever's there i will shoot

#

except bison

#

and lvl 1s

vocal cypress
#

I’m more of a trophy hunter so I try to use the right gun and ammo for the right creatures, also I’m not a fan of the type of scope on the muzzle loader especially if I’m going for something smaller and further away

last hemlock
#

and it is right from 3-8

#

not 1, 2 or 9

vocal cypress
#

Yeah that’s why it’s not always my go-to gun

last hemlock
#

but 3-8 is really fuckin good??

vocal cypress
#

Since I usually end up scaring away most things close enough for the muzzleloader’s scope to be effective

last hemlock
#

literally just carry the two ammo types

vocal cypress
last hemlock
#

then you arent really playing the game right

#

for the muzzleloader i mean

#

the tactic is fine for further guns

vocal cypress

Fuck u right I should’ve read the tutorial on how to play the game right mb

Didn’t know having fun was not the main goal of a game

Lol

no everyone plays the same

i literally specified for the muzzleloader

no

yes..?

the way u play muzzle is driving on a ATV jumping off then shooting

hahahahaha

#

i did that with the grleck for bison when i was like level 14

#

good fun

#

if you dont do it that way you arent really playing the game right

If you’re using muzzle for bison you’re not playing the game right

i know, its 4-8

If you want real hunting for bison go the to marsh flats between Trappers Peak and Woodsman’s Respite. Dozens of bison

last hemlock

i used it on one once just to see what it was like

shot it through the middle chest basically went out its asshole

and the m1 cant cut through anything like butter

maybe a rabbit

If you know how to shoot it does..

in one side and out the other

it can hit heart shots but it doesnt perform like the muzzleloader

last hemlock
#

I'm going to test that statement

#

you smell like salami^

#

Okay?

fallow cairn
#

Everyone knows the penetration on the muzzle is better. But the M1 drops class 4 animals on the spot, class 5’s run 15m with vitals, class 6 runs maybe 30m with vitals. And when you can accurately down 5x more animals with the M1 than the muzzle, it would make sense that the M1 would be the better choice in a game in which you need to kill more animals to get more trophy animals. That’s all I’m saying

Two things first off when I bought the gun pack 2 all I got was the drilling gun does it only come with that now and the other thing is I bought I while back the place with water Buffalo and the tripod pack but those have both disappeared

Yes

Yeah but my polymer tip couldn't even penetrate to the lungs 😆

I'm just joking now, but seriously RNG is hell sometimes.

It definitely penetrated to the lungs just went in between them

So... it went between the heart,2 lungs, liver & stomach ? Kappa

Damn smart bullet

Must be a vegetarian bullet 😄

Above the heart, between the lungs, stopped before the liver or stomach.. lol

Broadside sitting probably just below the shoulder. The lungs are higher up than you think when they’re in that position

.270 on a moose isn’t much fun. .300 much more fun

fallow cairn
# tropic flare Got it

Next time you shoot one just check out where their vitals are when you’re harvesting them

#

In that position of course

tropic flare
#

abt 180++ range

fallow cairn
#

Hmm. Maybe some bullet drop cause that seems like it should’ve been lung

harsh gale
#

Oh there's a 50 call in the game lol

fallow cairn
#

The muzzleloader?

harsh gale
#

Yes lol

fallow cairn
#

Yeah it’s only ethical for classes 3-7 or 4-8 depending on ammo but the penetration is wild

#

That same shot on the moose with the muzzleloader 4-8 ammo would’ve went out the back and probably through the moose behind her

hidden basin
#

Penetration is roughly on par with others, but it’s expansion is what gives it that knockdown power

Well no

No

It adjusts the tights on the rifle to compensate the angle of shooting

It compensates the bullet trajectory

bullet drop is a thing. zeroing adjusts the arc the bullet takes to hit dead on the crosshair at a certain range

is it better to use the duck ground blind for hunting geese or the actual goose blind? ive seen people use both

i thought while you have a weapon out while in the goose hunting thing you jump up out of it

or jump up and scare them

When you when you aim your character sits up to shoot

doesnt that scare the geese?
