How many kills in are you on your WT grind ?

#

I’m at 4.5K WT on REV and don’t have him yet, just fyi. Next WT grind I do is on Rancho

terse wyvern
plain anchor
terse wyvern
#

Yeah fr, I grinded on Layton when it came out, eventually Rancho, Rev, and then back to Layton

#

I'm too stubborn to give up, but if I have an excuse to not grind them then I won't

#

Fallow is my current excuse šŸ˜‚

acoustic cedar
#

I think I’ve got whitetail set up? Mostly?

slow condor
warm flax
#

I have my red deer stuff set up but I think red deer might be broken right now

slow condor
#

They dont spawn?

warm flax
slow condor
#

Good thing then

#

Idk how or why, but I swear my map just spawned like 30+ more whitetail in two locations. No zones deleted elsewhere or anything. But there’s now two mega herds

#

How bizarre

warm flax
#

I also just missed a piebald red deer

acoustic cedar
#

Yup like that

#

But two whitetail herds

#

Crazy

Anybody that has stacked 5s for fallow deers how many were you able to stack

I have 8 atm

How very odd

That’s literally what my couple herds look like with whitetail

And yes I missed everyone of the shots on those deer

terse wyvern
#

Well I'm 1300 into my 2nd GO, hopefully he pops before 2000

tiny kestrel
# warm flax

This happened at a few of my lakes during the grind

#

It just happens

tiny kestrel
#

Back to the grind

#

Gonna hopefully get about 200 kills today, if that. Slowly losing the motivation to grind at all

warm flax
#

I kinda lost motivation after all the big groups started spawning

#

I haven’t seen one good buck since it started to happen

tiny kestrel
#

Seeing people get their entire huddle sub 500 kills while I’m out here 3.1k+ in with no GO at all is a little demotivating for sure

warm flax
#

It took me about 200 kills and a year or two to get my first diamond animal in general

#

Then I got another diamond the next day and haven’t seen one since

#

I’ve seen a lot of people getting fallow deer great ones so If I don’t see another diamond within the next week I’ll probably just do the fallow deer one

terse wyvern
#

Yeah the rng element sucks sometimes, but just because your not seeing dimes doesn't mean you aren't making progress

tiny kestrel
#

My only goal is the GO atm

#

A 270+ would be cool, as would a big mela but all I care for is getting those GOs

terse wyvern
#

I still don't have a 270 from this update

tiny kestrel
#

Time to press on. Being in this channel is about the only thing preventing me from zoning out completely

warm flax
#

The last time I wanted to give up on the game is when I got trolled by an 18-21 piebald mallard

terse wyvern
#

Tbh I'm hoping to either get an SR or the huddle complete

tiny kestrel
#

Do you have an SS?

crude spindle
#

32 kills in total

warm flax
terse wyvern
#

Tbh I'm mostly missing birds in my lodge

crude spindle
#

My small plaques are empty

terse wyvern
#

I have 1 dime mallard, I got recently, 3 dime capers and a bean goose

warm flax
#

It was an 18-21 and and then wanted to be on the low end

#

My birds are mallards because I thought piebald mallards were rare lol

terse wyvern
#

Tbh me too but I took them out

tiny kestrel
warm flax
#

There’s now two on each side too

tiny kestrel
#

What did it score?

warm flax
#

The mallard or the red deer

tiny kestrel
#

Your lvl 3 pie mallard

warm flax
#

18.60

tiny kestrel
#

@somber turret what’s the smallest lvl 3 mallard you’ve seen?

#

I don’t think it’s even possible for them to score that low

terse wyvern
#

Bro was folded like a pancake

warm flax
#

Fr

#

Then my dog tried to get inside of the deer

terse wyvern
#

Wtf

#

Needs to chill out

warm flax
#

I had to lay it down so it didn’t get in the picture lol

warm flax
#

Especially the birds

tiny kestrel
#

Are you positive it wasn’t a lvl 2?

warm flax
#

Idk

#

Earlier I had a mallard fly around in a circle right above the water and not land

somber turret
#

18.60 ain't possible for a lvl 3

#

19.55 is around min

warm flax
#

Prolly a level 2 then

somber turret
#

Most likely was

somber turret
#

Few people has got trolls

tiny kestrel
#

Today the fallow grind has officially became my 3rd longest grind ever

terse wyvern
#

Congratulations?

tiny kestrel
#

You’re supposed to say ā€œmy condolencesā€ and feel bad for me

#

Or something

#

I dont know my brain’s numb from grinding

terse wyvern
#

Lmao

#

Mb

#

That sucks bro

tiny kestrel
#

It does lol

#

It’s literally just the red deer grind all over again

#

And that SUCKED

terse wyvern
#

Probably where my wt is headed

#

I bullied you too much so now it's just karma šŸ˜‚

warm flax
tiny kestrel
#

I’ve seen people go 15k without one

#

My longest grind was for my 4th red deer GO at 9337 kills

terse wyvern
#

I have said this before but GO grinding feels like gambling fr

tiny kestrel
#

You’re either gonna get really lucky or really unlucky

warm flax
#

So doing red deer as my first great one grind was a mistake then?

terse wyvern
#

No

tiny kestrel
#

It’s pure RNG. Any GO of any species can spawn at any time

#

It’s your choice to grind whichever species you want, I just shared my personal experience with RNJesus

terse wyvern
#

Imagine a šŸŽ² with 1 million sides on it, and your trying too get the million side

tiny kestrel
#

I’d say closer to like 5000/10,000 sided die

terse wyvern
#

Yeah probably

#

Point is that it's random

tiny kestrel
#

Man this fallow GO is being a real hoe right now

warm flax
#

So theoretically I can go a year without a great one

tiny kestrel
#

Theoretically you could never see one in your lifetime

terse wyvern
#

Or get one in a few minutes

agile zephyr
#

Great One #2 down! 478 kills, 17 diamonds, and 2 piebalds

tiny kestrel

Congratulations šŸŽŠ

Thanks

Diamond n°29 showed up

terse wyvern
#

I got my first dime 4 today

warm flax
#

The day I get a great one is the day I mess up another shot

terse wyvern
#

šŸ’€

warm flax
#

I literally missed like 2-3 shots on the piebald red deer then another 2 on a mythical

terse wyvern
#

You could always start using the muzzleloader or the bow

#

I find knowing I have 1 shot helps me

warm flax
#

I went broke buying the .300 šŸ’€

terse wyvern
#

Well not much anymore

#

Ah

warm flax
#

I saved all day apart from ammo now I have like 14 308 and like 5-6 .300

terse wyvern
#

Using a bow also forces you to get close so there is less room for error

warm flax
#

Yeah but the bow also has a higher spook chance

tiny kestrel
#

Found an absolute banger of a song holy shit

terse wyvern
#

Yeah, but if you practice getting close to them it's not bad

#

I would do it on dimes tho, because they are more skittish

warm flax
#

I like messing with the rabbits

terse wyvern
#

Even if you spook them, you can always reset the time

tiny kestrel
#

You can always just tripod + caller too

terse wyvern
#

True, I like stalking up on them tho

Piebald n°10

terse wyvern
#

So many pies

tiny kestrel
#

I’ve only had silver pies so far

3 of mine were 216 to 218 gold

Grind until we die

rigid forge
warm flax
#

I gotta turn my back and walk 25-50 yards just for the deer to spawn

tiny kestrel
#

Then set up your tent further away

terse wyvern
#

Tent probably too close

tiny kestrel
#

Should be 200m away minimum

warm flax
#

Most of the tent are across the lake entirely

no tent, we grind like men.

Sheeesh dude

#

Thats nuts

tiny kestrel
#

It’s my 3rd longest grind thus far

#

I hope it remains that way and I don’t surpass 5.7k

I think I’m maybe 100 kills into the red deer grind and I gots one diamond

That and running off of 4 tents

The FUCK?

An entire herd just popped up outta nowhere

Maybe like 6

warm flax

It’s in a good spot tho. Extra 1-2 kills per grind šŸ‘€

warm flax
#

So far I only know me and mel are having the large herds spawn

pale oracle
tiny kestrel
#

I’m just hoping it didn’t steal a herd from double lakes

warm flax
#

Like I’ve never seen a herd this big before

terse wyvern
#

Ong they always run in front of my shots

I could count like 30 visible deers in that picture

@pale oracle lmfao dude I was at the gym rewatching the vod of when you got him and nearly fell off the treadmill laughing when the guy accused you of cheating

That was a rough grind for hm glad you got it

You sure you didn’t buy the 7mm?

warm flax

Whatever the cheapest rifle that could kill up to a level 9

crude spindle

7mm

tiny kestrel

@jolly sapphire if there’s a fallow or moose concept sheet it would be great to see them eventually. The black bear dev diary was awesome

The ones by the bridge are the strangest for lots of people

I’m done with the grind for today

Little bit of everywhere

Tomorrow we go delirious fr

I would be done but my mom comes home tonight

I keep hearing that as the wizard of oz guard song

tiny kestrel

Yeah but imagine we make a song based around cotw grinding

crude spindle
tiny kestrel

Yeah I have high energy songs to keep me sane during the grind

crude spindle
tiny kestrel
#

I’ve always been told that my song choice for grinding is too energetic lol

terse wyvern

No such thing

crude spindle

That’s cause you’re not a fossil yet

I'm 19 so you can't be that old

Lmao

crude spindle

I wish I knew about cotw in high school so I could’ve grinded it harder

terse wyvern

I knew about it but didn't play

crude spindle
#

For some reason I always thought the game was different whenever I saw the steam page

tiny kestrel
#

I should be grinding these grades but these funny pixel deer are more important

crude spindle
#

I thought it was like bare-bones not content 3 species

terse wyvern

But I'm currently unemployed so grind time is high

tiny kestrel

I’m currently part time

Got 18 hours next week that’s nice

Yeah I gotta stop procrastinating it’s a very big problem of mine

Can you tell if a fallow is a guaranteed troll or not like with red deer?

hoary oar
#

with the score est yeah

raven rose
#

Allright

#

With red deer you can always tell if it's a troll or a diamond based on the rack but I guess it's not the same with fallow.

Okay, it's good that there is atleast some way of knowing if somethings a troll or not.

A second map with RME would be amazing.

thats why its ideal

Next G1 should be an Elk

Would love a G1 elk or bison

#

I doubt it tho as roos. elk and euro bison are exclusive to layton and hirsch currently

#

I'd bet more money on the next G1 being red fox

rigid forge
#

Could also be a bird

#

You never know

#

Or it could even be roe deer

tame lark
#

I think dlc exclusives are due a GO

normal rose
#

Could have a nice rusty red color

indigo umbra
#

Maybe turkey would be hard to gring because they are very skittish

north nova
tame lark
#

That would be a nightmare to grind

#

Turkeys would be

#

RME would be a fairly easy grind tbh

This was a gold 😭

Just CoTW scoring doing CoTW scoring things

Maybe he needed to gain a few lbs

Why do the gold racks look better then the diamond ones tho

#

Which one looks better

raven rose
#

Yeah, the small rack diamond is so ugly lol

#

I love the big rack red deer diamonds tho

daring kernel
#

I've always thought that the big rack diamonds for red deer are kind of an overkill. I'd prefer if those wide lvl 7 racks were diamond instead.

raven rose
#

I love over the top things. I dream of a great one that's just so over the top unrealistic that it's just ridiculous tbh.

I have killed less than 40 red deer today and 3 diamonds already lol.

1.3k fallows down. No GO yet

HE WENT LEFT FIELD AND CHOSE LUZ

Finally got him after 3000+ kills and a botched g1.

raven rose

Im so jealous when people are posting these fallow GO's here, im just stuck in the red deer grind still lol. Well, I shouldn't be too far anymore. Congrats btw!

crude spindle
#

Grind fallow if you want to grind fallow

raven rose
#

I can't, my red deer grind is in Te so there is not enough tents for both.

crude spindle
#

Could always shoot a few after red deer time ends and see what happens

raven rose
#

That is possible, there is one zone right next to one of my red deer grind spots.

#

Could be more since there is a couple places I have not checked yet.

daring kindle
north nova
#

Its true

#

Luz also has struggled

#

We went from happy to mildly wilty because sun too stronk

#

to "I watered it once and now the leaves are yellow!"

#

because it simultaneously needs lots of water

#

but also was in too small a pot and was SO rooot bound

pliant oak
north nova
#

so we repotted Luz today. I will leave the sad leaves for now, and if we can salvage and make the other 4 blooms prosper, I will deadhead the big bloom and the yellow leaves

there will be

1k for the fabled painted and 3 kills later the fabled hooded showed up

I quit grinding last night after i botched a diamond

And first thing i saw was the g1 today

Dwas literally 3 kills

Ur only lv 23?

#

Yeah

#

On pc

iron valve
#

U must not pickup alot

full cave
#

I pick up every kill

#

Most of the kills for it were on xbox

iron valve
#

Ah

full cave
#

But then my pop reset

#

i truly am interested on if hm does affect g1 spawns, in theory i feel like it would

pliant oak
#

no one knows

#

so its not really worth discussing

raven rose
#

I have the same feeling, but yeah as Ron said no one knows.

pliant oak
#

yeah it always descends into arguements

raven rose
#

Yeah

pliant oak
#

but no one really knows

#

finally get to grind

#

😁

raven rose
#

Same, I have not been grinding much today.

tiny kestrel
pliant oak
#

weight isnt that important though once you bring in truracs

#

could be a factor though

tiny kestrel
#

What’s minimum weight for WT again?

#

Is it 60kg for males?

north nova
#

sounds feasible, since max begins at 85kg

pliant oak
#

i do think scores play a big part in what spawns

#

so a low scoring fallow for eg may go down based on trophy rating

#

where as a high scoring fallow may go up a level on respawn

#

this could be really interesting for eg if people for eg shoot a trophy with a non etihcal weapon

#

like 300

#

so shoot a 3 to get a 2 from a 300

tiny kestrel
#

Okay. I threw up this really shitty diagram for my explanation but bear with me
If the number of your max weight estimate males is roughly equal to the number of minimum weight males ya got, then your whitetail will be respawning anywhere within the red diamond, the thicker the section the more likely a male is to respawn at that weight.

#

If you have a LOT of minimum weight males, bigger males have to be spawned in to keep that average. Therefore the odds of males spawning in at bigger weights is more likely

#

Obviously this isn’t actually accurate to how likely the spawn rates are but it’s a basic explanation of my theory

pliant oak
#

well we know that once you have the mins that bigger males spawn quicker

#

personally i think ideally you have to herd manage then as you get to a optimum point then its selective shooting

#

then leave the small pool of animals with the highest animal level alive as the least amount in the pool

#

this should favour that level spawning more frequently

#

which is what ive done with my red deer

#

so imagine i have 23 shooters i have like 4 5s. 6s 7s and 8s

#

but no legendaries

#

the highest probability is a legendary spawns next

#

as i dont have any

tiny kestrel
#

Well, from my understanding the system goes: ā€œokay. 3 red deer are about to respawn and I need (insert weight)kg to balance out the respawns. I can do this by spawning a level 7 and two level 8s or by spawning two level 7s and a level 9.ā€ And from there it’s just a coin toss as to which one happens

pliant oak
#

it could be

#

which is why we have this talk 😁

#

is it rng or a system

tiny kestrel
#

It’s interesting, they’ve devised a pretty neat system to balance out the animals on your reserves

tiny kestrel
pliant oak
#

it could be both

tiny kestrel
#

A bit of both (controlled spawns and random spawns) would be optimal. So that you’re not only spawning in level 9s and GOs but also so that your controlled culling is giving you a reward

pliant oak
#

i think the go part is random

#

diamonds i think its just a case of levels levelling up

#

so high scorer moves up on respawn

#

low scorer may stay same or go down based on trophy rating

tiny kestrel
#

Personally? I think it’s affected but not to the level that regular animals are. How much HM affects GO spawns is definitely diluted down

#

It’s happening 😭😭😭

They definitely were a thing before

But for whatever reason, a myth that they just don’t happen anymore popped up and I stg it’s got the dumbest logic ever behind it. ā€œOh I haven’t seen one, therefore they don’t existā€ is quite literally the reasoning that people used to back this theory

To be fair, I say that and i watch a pretty large amount of the community. And I have not seen a 100% provable initial spawn since the bears. Everyone that has said they got one recently had been shooting males. And they called it initial spawn cause it was a new zone. But fallow & moose move almost every run for the first few hundred kills at the minimum. I just say theres no proof they still exist. And like flinter said, we went from seeing them all the time to not having a provable one in a long time.

mental health doesn't exist when bear grinding takes place

it's a grueling grind with very little reward until you spawn a GO imo

The only thing that doesn’t reset is your trophy manager and subsequently all the trophies within your lodge

Yea, I am so looking forward to this of being over. I have learned a few things from it tho. MAIN thing is I don’t think I’m ever grinding on Rev again because of how much the map they cover. You want to focus on less zones which leads to smashing quicker.
