Mel actually cracked
I’m shaking so goddamn hard
Bruh how many kills this time xD
Ive been so wrapped up in the angler that ive barely played cotw
@acoustic cedar my dream combo 😭
Bros I just spawned a lvl 2 mela💀
100-200
Not that many tbh
I had a feeling something might happen cuz everything yesterday was smol
So I was like hmmmm
Cuz this happened before one of my last ones
It does for moose! This is the end!!
Lol
It’s so beautiful 😭🖤
Thank you so much!!
Now it’ll be a hardcore focus on whitetail to get a droptine
Np u earned it with the time and effort u put into this game
now get a fabled pie wt
Lmfao imagine
Just a few hours of my life 🙈
idk even know what I'm doing I'm trying but I only put in like an hour a day or every other day
"a few"
hundred
thousand
Sheeeshhh thats like how my fallow were but even better
Now that's a bit much
I have over 5k hours on pc and 1k ish on Xbox lol
Yeah I have my moose down to a T. Worked super hard with them over these thousands of kills after this one rack!
Damn I only have over a thousand on one game and I've been playing for 2 years
Yea thats insane, i wish i had the patience to manage down all the solos but i just cant be bothered to chase 5-10 large 3s lol
Mel another one?! Lets gooo
I got my dream boi finally!!!!
And now you have all the furs and racks!
Awesome!
I may never shoot another moose lmfao
I knowww it’s a massive achievement for me. I cried when I saw him lmao
Haha
Same bro, Can’t get off of it lol
Yea its insanely addicting
Fr lol
I think ive killed like 400 fallow/moose/bear the last 2 weeks lol
Major downtick in kills
Cuz feesh lol
Good ol feeesh lol
Update drought setting in it’s understandable
fs
It’s so addicting that I hooked a fish and threw my phone onto the floor to catch it lol
Guys who wants sneak peekssss
Cuz this lad just put on a SHOW
God I love this moose
He’s so freaking incredible
Wow
Yesssss
Stunning!!!!!
Bro my birch feeds right next to skull mountain
You made hims hair bristle
Mines up there somewhere but it’s no good for photography, so I’m just drink zone filming this guy
Hims my precious boi 😭🖤
I literally screeched
I think I woke people up
lol
It was 11:30 I wouldve screamed if I wasn't gonna wake everyone up lmao
Mel did you see what I said earlier
Just gonna take him with a safe 300 shot…I’m too scared to try anything even slightly tricky
No 👀👀👀
Oh damn 👀🙈
Hey I saw that
😏
Sneaky sneaky!
I shot him and just hyperventilated the entire way to pick him up
My god
My little heart is beating so fast
Thats a nice moose😥
That's very beautiful
Honestly I really wanna great one but I don't wanna grind so ima jus keep shooting and than hopefully I get one randomly spawn
What the frick 😂
I am multi hopping on srp
and a dude gets mad at me for shooting to much near him and litteraly all I did was shoot 2 times at a bear
TOO MUCH SHOOSTING
petition for a raccoon GO
He would be such a thicc lad
i’d grind for one tbh
i don’t think it’d be enjoyable because they sort of behave like bears but i’d still grind them
My hope now i think for the next one is boar
Idk why
I just think they could be cool
Oops, didnt mention the other part, after he got mad, he kicked me from the server 🤦♂️
that's what i'm hoping for as well if they stick with base maps
i think it also has the best chance as it was already considered once
Ok here me out, the dark horse great one pick, ROE DEER! They need a remodel almost as bad as blacktail and Roosevelt elk and honestly I just kinda like them lol.
oh my god I’ve always said I wanted a great one roe too!
That would be the dream!!!!
I just don’t see them being next, but goddamit I’d be very happy to be wrong
So many cool things that they could do with roe great ones
They could be freaking awesome genuinely but yeah I just don’t reckon they’ll be next sadly
Idk I have a feeling about boar or fox being next
I want pheasant great one 😂
I can't imagine wondering how hard thst would be to grind one 😭
i'm just wondering when we're gonna get news on the next dlc
should be this month right?
Me too
I hope so
Big update every 6 months with a smaller update in between normally
yeah it's 6 months since the last smaller update/weapon pack
it's about 6 months for each
it's just that one comes in the middle of the big updates each time but both updates are about 6 months each
Yeah exactly you right
i'm just ready for whatever it is
Same
Yessss
i wouldn't even mind if they just did some remodels for some animals
That took me a second to realize what it was lmao
I might be slow but what is it
#5
How many did it take you to get him
congrats as well
unless u meant u got him in 14 kills
He means that's his 24th dime of his 2nd grind...
Bro I ain’t gonna lie
I didn’t even look at it that close
I just read the chat name and thought it was a go 💀
😂 all good
I think we're going to hear something by the end of this month, but the DLC itself won't be until next month.
according to Tuesday's stream
bummer
So not December??
okay so.
There are two types of DLCs for COTW.
There's the twice-a-year map DLC, which release in June and December (unless delayed)
and then there's the non-map DLC, which also follows twice a year, between the maps.
Next up is the non-map DLC.
The only thing confirmed about it is "not a lodge"
so it could be another weapon pack (I will actually riot if we get another 4-8 rifle)
but it could also be a new dog
we won't know until it's actually announced.
EW suddenly changes it to 4-9 to avoid a riot
1-9 gun when
my first great one fallow took 17 diamonds
on 2nd grind now with 14 diamonds
currently getting one or two diamonds spawn per run
So I got 1 more diamond to go then lol.
wish you luck could be any amount
Yeah lol I just had a chuckle as I am at 16 for about 1100 and saw yours at 17
I dont focus much on it now as get sidetracked so just tend to do a couple drink time runs when in the mood then log off every now and then.
I think doing it on Australia map was a mistake on my part too lol. Quicker and easier if I stripped down my red setup on TA but it is what it is lol
go grinding kinda took a back seat for me recently just casual grind for a 1 hr here or there inbetween other things
my hm is good so even in short time i can still bag diamonds in that time
will swap back to moose after next fallow go
get one moose then maybe bear...maybe!
Nice am a bit same less grind now. I miss moose too so may go for a 2nd one soon as fallow is done. Funny I hated Med starting out as it hurt my eyes being nocturnal and it being bright white but now adapted I miss it lol
My hm is finnaly starting to like, pop off ngl
in 15 kills I had 4 level 5's spawn
only 1 was a dime tho, 3 trolls but still 😂
once you get half you pop low levels it will
fallows its about 40 males then diamonds should spawn about every 10 to 20 kills
the smaller you get your shooting pool the faster they spawn
my reds shooter pool i dont think it can go smaller as its been same for months now
23 shooters
but with that i can spawn a diamond every few kills
fallow currently got about 35 shooters
but few diamonds level 5s respawn every run now
its took time 1 year to disect
but now its paid off trying all the different combos
problem is i dont have a lot of spare time to grind
if i could grind 12 hrs a day like some id have 1000 great ones lol
but i dont begrude those that do fair play and they put in the effort
I'm currently grinding for a moose and I'm usually on for 1-2hr a day
im going after moose again after next fallow go
10 diams in on rev
hm is decent on there too
so one maybe not far aware there
good look on your moose grind
Thank you u too
I thinking of starting a Great one fallow grind in Te. Can someone reply with a need zone map pls
what are the hotspots for magpie goose?
thank u so much
i have a video guide on them too with some tricks to stop salt water crocs scaring them
OK
I really wish they'd expand the magpie goose territory to the entire ruby coast area
So annoying to hunt with how easily they get spooked rn
Plus I swear they have something wrong with their hitbox. I can snipe other birds from the air with relative ease, but magpies? Can't hit them to save my life
They should make it where predators hunt othet animals ik they chase but like more animamations like that would br cool also I'm sick of watching predators and prey literally sitting next to each other
its literally this simple. take away spooking from magpie geese and salt water crocs
easiest solution then hunt as normal
^aye that'll do it
310 kills and 6 dimes and 6 trolls into fallow grind number 2.
Grind 1 took 3533 kills and 95 dimes
Nearly 5.1k without a GO
Fallow?
Ope
are you collecting kills
Red deer
Yes
God I hope thats not how my fallow goes. I think if I reach 3k will say thats enough
It’s been a struggle to stay motivated to grind
4,9k kills after i have this beauty, i like the spotted fur althought there are some that i like even more
Beautiful, I’m almost 3.3k into mine
6k bears for me, zero g1
What is the best strategy for a GO moose grind Medved
I'm currently doing one rn 😭
find a rotation that works well that allows you to get as many kills per hour as you can
if you want to use hm then use it if not don’t worry about it
Don’t shoot 2’s
That's a really awesome screenshot!!
Good luck with your grind 🤞💪
Thankya
It took a few tries to actually get close tho 😂
Piebald #6 at 1415 kills
Thx 🙂
Hey guys! I have a couple of questions. I´m quite new to the game. I've shot 1916 animals so far. 1 diamond (and about 6-7 more but shot with non vitals so I lost the diamond medal), 4 pibalds and two albinos.
What would be your best tips to increase the amounts of spotted diamonds and even a great one or two? I've read about what you call "grinds" and I've seen the hunting tent method for swift spawning at hot locations etc. Are the animals still there if I log out of the game or is the game reset every time? I've spent quite a lot of hours at certain lakes and I've shot a bunch of "Mythical" animals etc. And I always use the right caliber etc. Please be gentle with me since I'm a n00b here 😄
herd managemnt.
so levels 1-3 species you shoot only 2 and 3s
levels 1-5 only shoot 3 - 5s
levels 1 - 9 only 5 - 9s
Thanks mate!!
Wdym by you spend hours at certain lakes
I actually got away with keeping my lvl 5's during my grind aside from the lvl 5's at my main shooting lakes
I think it all depends on the map you are grinding on possibly? I did my grind on Hirschfelden so I pretty much over loaded my map with lvl 5's because of the sheer amount of need zones on that map I think I was able to get away with this method 😅
I want a spotted so bad 😭, beautiful pic, and congrats!
I want any so bad 🙂
it harms respawns stacking 5s
ive proved this by stacking 30 diamonds twice back to back
at start of a grind it helps get lower levels
but once you get into your grind its bad for respawns
so dont stack 5s
Great one at level 30, didn't even start my grind :)
Got a codex pic?
that is the best whitetail great one rack tbh
That is so hawt
Plz god let that or the droptine (🙏🖤) show up on my grind
Congratulations @golden viper
@north nova ^^^
theres a mesasge in trophy gallery
somehow
idk if u want to delete that or not
i mean im sure u do
Took care of it.
Tyty
Is it I hope it shows up!
4 k kills into fallow grind, 1 GO after 3.4 k and 106 dimes, 41 trolls and 11 Rares
Anybody got a drink zone map for red deer on cuatro ? I wanna get a big rack GO and a SR. Atm i got 3 small racks which scored between 257 and 261
Why do people ask for maps for drink zones isn't everyone different one thr map??
while the zones themselves vary, the general area to find them is the same.
Oh so sometimes the areas are the same as others ?
with the Cuatro map there for example, all the highlighted areas will always have a chance to have red deer at them.
at the same time, it's not guaranteed that any will be there.
The general areas are always the same, the exact pinpoint location of individual zones will vary
a good eg is me and pro xck compared map locations when emerald coast came out
for most species
and we both had locations where there was animals at different locations
so good for general locations but you need to check your own map
He looked very trolly 😂
😑
Ah, being a new player again and seeing a Legendary stag ...
Yea ... my first trurack Legendary was that rack ... I didn't know it was a guaranteed troll, was excited lol
okay, game forgiven. for the moment
Don't stress out much, just enjoy the nature, wildlife, the game and play so that no two hunts are ever the same
If I delete a zone it can spawn anywhere right?
Or is it just nearby where it was deleted?
In my experience ones with multiple animals spawn nearby, but single male zones will jump. I’ve had single zones repeat the same place a dozen times then jump the map
I wish there was a wider rack for the typical rack.
But idk if they get any wider than that
daym
I hit the tent limit on EC 🥲
Ok! Thanks!
How many red deer drinkzones do u guys have on cuatro ?
Hello 👀
@pliant oak your the guy who grinds red deer right?
Don’t worry about number of zones, just check all the areas where red deer can drink and see what you can find. Don’t worry about counting! 😊
@pliant oak do you kill 5s for red deers or leave em,this is embarrassing for me considering I got 2 sr ones just can't remember what I did
yes kill 5s
super rares have nothing to do with levels just lucky spawns
Thank you so much!!
So many 😭
I’m determined to get that blooming droptine buck! But he refuses to exist!
Legit once I get that rack I’m done
I litteraly have 3 great ones 😭 you get like 3 a dayis what it seems like 😂
Good luck!!!!
Thank you so much! I hope I’ll see it one day! But I’m stoked about this buck, he’s the most unique big rack I’ve seen on these grinds, very weird
Wait thats a big rack!???
I know right lmao
based of the estimate I didnt think it was a big rack
Exactly
seemed way to low lol
He’s so squashed up
wow he must be very unique
I was like DAFUQ is that- oh!
😂
Then my heart did the kick lol
He’s so cool
Gonna get some pics of him in a mo
Waiting on him to come in from his feed zone
cant wait for the vid
Thank you so much!! I’ll be excited to share it!!
Bruh
Another
Congrats
I'ma go back to studying Spanish with a friend
He scored 604
Wtf
That’s the smallest big rack lmfao
Tip to tip spread is 5.75 lmaooo
I wonder what the lowest scoring one ever recorded is
I’ll post a sneak peek here in a mo
really close tip to tip spread on it
well until now i haven't seen a smaller big rack than mine
so yours might just be it?
Oh god that would be wild
time will tell
For sure
I’ve asked in partners, maybe crow or ibuy will know if there’s been a smaller one
they might
I’m so stoked
What a cool buck to get
This is why I keep going for that droptine, cuz the journey is just as cool
def a trophy to remember
Congrats Mel!!
Thank you so much!!
Crow would love this
Porcupine rack!
Literally is lol
Oh he’s so cool!!!
that big rack is absolutely crazy, would rather that than the typical rack
were my jaw not attached, it would've hit the desk.
Part 1 of my dream multimount as been obtained
big boy too
so thought that was a fabled silver at first glance
nope, just a guaranteed-diamond white
just need a chocolate diamond, and a mocha GO
...I have an ugly feeling the mocha GO is going to be the one that's going to take Forever
Whats your count so far
@fast ridge I take it you're not doing hm?
Not really. HM desensitized me entirely to whitetail diamonds and I don't want that happening to any other animal.
i wanted a white dime, choc dime, and a sr piebald in a multi mount
that didn’t happen because i never got a sr but i got a huddle with 3 GOs so oh well
Noice
I briefly had a multimount with my two WT GOs, but it. Did not look right. so now it's the bigger GO with my SR
congratz, so what is part 2
dw, I know the feeling
Grats! Good find!!
diamond number 16 of 2nd grind big boy too
number 17
Dude be wide
That's what she said
Sorry 😭😭
🤔
😇
Did you ever see this guy? This is probably my most unique whitetail G1
ron always delivers the goods
Very weird buck!
Honestly thats the best part about the great one whitetail. No other great one gets as much influence from the random stuff truracs can do
Exactly
holy moly he wonky
Bro a max level mele troll this is actually the most heartbreaking thing I’ve ever had playing this game
Would’ve been my first ever super rare to
😢
oof, super-troll
at least he's an impressive gold and absolutely worthy of the Hall Of Shame
actually makes me wanna quit the fallow grind bruh after 2.5k kills no great one and then my first ever potential super rare is a troll
I hate to say this but diamond minimum is 249. he was guaranteed troll.
but yeah I wouldn't blame you for taking a break after that
that was a rare
It makes the end goal feel sweeter though
when u finally get it
So I wanna start my moose grind which map is best for it? I find a lot of diamonds on Yukon and rev, so would one of them be good to do a moose grind on ? Also heard New England is decent for moose
Medved
I barely started I think I have grindes for like 3-4days so far as ND already got diamonds and diamond potentials
Lots of folks pick Medved, Revontuli or NEM for moose
Medved is by far the best map
that is a weird one cool though.
haha trying my best. im basically same number now diamond wise and nearly trolls as last fallow go
so hopefully shows up soon
then maybe back to moose
I wanna get a Rack like that irl
I’ll be setting up tonight on medved. Lucky it’s fresh since I never hunt on that map maybe the RNG gods will bless me with a natural spawn G1😂😂😂
fingers big crossed for you
Anyone got a good setup for medved moose grind?
My Yukon has produced 6 nice diamond moose so I might set up on there as well just if I get bored of medved
my moose map for medved but personally think revontuli coast is better
yellow areas are where i mainly try to focus on
What abt that big lake on the right side on the map is it good spawns for u?
yeah
i personally kill more on revontuli coast though easier in less time with better visibility
will be going back there soon after next fallow go
My grind is on med and there's no point of restarting now bc I have had so much help and I already got high lvls
yeah if you mid grind might as well stay there
Thanks :)
Can u send me a rev lay out for moose imma set one up on rev n medved
Also if anyone would wanna help me tomorrow get my moose grind set up n help me start killing all 4s n 3s n keep count so we can tally the kills for the G1 moose
Imma be running a 60 hour run this weekend all for moose maybe I can get a 300 plus diamond n not get it stolen for the 3rd time
Today on theHunter Call of the wild im at Revontuli Coast making a new moose guide for 2023.

Sweet homie thanks @pliant oak
I had a dream last night, that for some reason I was in a call with scarecrow (I wish but will never happen 😢) and we were hunting this map that I dont even know what it was, some map that aint in the game it was somewhere over in south america or based off that I feel, and it had whitetail, and we were checking zones and I found an initial spawn droptine rack great one
and then I was taunting @acoustic cedar with it 😂
nice dream
tyty 😂
bruh my dream was that my i could actually understand my crush when she speaks, Spanish is her first language and her English isn’t the best
yours is so much better
😂 that sounds pretty good tho, at least you could understand her for like 20mins or however dreams last
lmao
are you trying to learn some spanish?
i’m taking french rn, so no
It would be my dream to be in the same call as scarecrow lol
noice
Ah I see, Ye i used to take french classes but my french teacher would just say everything in french even intructions so we had no clue waht she was saying
like at all
I learned nothing in my 3 years of frnech
*french
my french teacher does that but then repeats himself in english
and the past 3 years of french they spoke in mostly english with increasing amounts of french
damn
Yea no, our french teacher litteraly waffled on in french and none of us new a clue waht she was saying 🤣
damn
at least youve learned stuff 😂
i mean he makes us guess what he said, and then tells us, but still
This is droptines right?
Yes
In the Moose grind would heard management be good or should I not even worry about doing heard management
It's working well for me so I would suggest it
you will get a great one quicker on average with herd management
unless you get lucky with rng shooting randoms
So just shoot 3 4 5
yeah
collect all kills if you can
you want about half your population of males to be lower levels
then you get higher levels spawn faster
Ok sounds good
Roooood
😂 well at least you made it in my dream, that gotta count for something? Right??? xD
um @north nova ^^^
in every channel
Definitely
Haha, it was also a really weird drop tine as well, he had like tines curling out and then back towards his head and then like making a figure 8 with the other side idk it was weird lol
That would be so cool lol
you know u play to much when u dream about a game 😂
Felt that
Yk you eat too much until you dream abt it and start eating the pillow
Bros got his nuts hanging from his antlers
I 100% do not have a problem i promise
😭I wish I had that time
jesus
No breaks allowed lol, work only xD
Crow. Do I need to call the doctor? lmaooo
@ornate shore Is that kangaroo a silver and and yo didn't mess him up or anything?
Or am I seriously trippin?
I did mess it up but it was a troll anyways
Oh th multi-player message mist have just been covering the hrvst check thins perfectly lol
Oh nvm I see it now
I'm stupid
Dw, well maybe worry idk
Lol
yeah a lot of things on EC are troll-happy.
I don’t think I can count that high in my fingers
In 3 days i have spawned 10 level 9s so far. 2 trolls, 2 diamonds, & 6 stacked so far out of 736 kills xD
EC solo stags are the bane of my existence
i spent like 4 hours chasing nothing but solos today and only killed like 80. The solos move so much that even 16 tents cant cover all them
And they refuse to become 4s lol
admittedly I'm loosely HM'ing reds, mostly because diamond reds...already don't have much for variation.
what is it, two diamond racks? Three?
That’s how I feel with my ec solo fallow on the river. I have like 10 or less to get down to small ones but they just won’t!!!
Eventually tho 😓
3 but 2 of them are very similar in looks
sounds like its going to be a long haul then
hm seems to kick in about 50 ish level 4s on your map
with reds
but thats for te awaroa and emerald coast has quite a lot less reds
te awaroa has about 140 ish males vs 100 ish at emerald coast
so herd management there once you get the lower levels could be fast once you got them there
guess its down to how many levels you can kill per hr vs how long to get the lower levels
i think shooting lower stags like 5s epecially will help get them quicker
Haven’t seen one lvl 5 moose yet and my respawns aren’t showing up no more. Confused if I did anything wrong I have picked up every kill haven’t shot any 1s 2 s or females I’m 130kills in
what map
also make sure you like 2hrs in at least on drink zones
never change time also where you hunting
Medved
as often if you do that you walk onto whatever lake you hunting and none will be there
yeah medved can be a bit of pig like that some times
also remember to fast travel 1 day at least at end of hunt and either close game restart
or go main menu and then come back in
reason you do this is i think it checks your pop then replaces what you missing
so for eg i just done it on a fallow run
do a run. fast forward one day at end of run. i personally close game. then restart it
then hunt
normally all males will be back within a day
Ok sweet thanks homie 🤙🏼
Three, four if you count wonkies
yeah four really with if you count the odd wonkers
back to fallow slaughter
lets see what spawns today
im sorta at the same sorta kills diamonds as last one that spawned so hopefully something good soon
I haven’t seen nothing good yet nothing even close to diamond potential so hopefully I get good spawns to today
I still need to find a few more zones I think as well is there a way to push moose closer together
as you grind you will find areas with more males
these are the zones you need to look after
focus on
you can move zones about moose animals about but you need to know your zones
Could someone who knows medved well help me find my zones😂
How many people have a fabled piebald/albino/melanistic great one whitetail?
right now i think there is one albino and no mela great one whitetails atm
Piebald is like the most common rare so I wouldn't be surprised if alot of people got em
LC?
Not legit
how so?
It’s been determined as illegitimate
A group of grinder creators got together and looked at all the evidence and determined it illegitimate
is there a vid i can watch of it?
It wasn’t a video
Ronmctube was the one who told me
i have no idea who this person is but ok
i asked about it word was it wasnt legit
or was bugged
we know there has been one or two possible legit piebald ones but even one of those was traded and duped
there might be more legit but not all post here
ideally we should have codex for all kills you get
not just twenty also a kill counter would be nice so you can see the whole grind and details
this would help with legitimacy
id like to see some of this in the future as it would weed out the cheaters who just spout numbers and then post gos
its pretty negative to talk about but it is a thing and it devalues the trophys from legit players
who put in the hard work
There is at least one legit pie that wasn’t posted here (at least I don’t think it was)
yeah i have heard of it but as you cant prove it anything could be not legit
which is the sad thing
Short of being a creator kill it has as much evidence of being legit as can be
Oh yeah I agree, I’m just saying someone who is EW supported should be legit
tie files to that one person. that would stop duping.
trading
other things which im not goin to go into
i hate even talking about it tbh as it just seems negative
I hate its even a thing
I don’t see how people can enjoy playing the game when they do that
yeah worst thing is i can see when people do it and instantly know they doing it
imagine
then read through posts of people
knowing they havent got it legit
I’m in the same boat. I’ve seen dozens of illegitimate trophies they usually jump out to me
been fallow grinding today
not been bad but no diamonds weirdly enough
will give it a few hrs tomorrow
Do you HM?
yeah
How many kills do you average between diamonds? Roughly
fallows it depends
selective shooting can be 1 - 10 kills
but at mo just shooting 3- 5
at mo
reds is every few kills
but thats more advanced
had a hr with fallows earlier
but no diamonds
I was considering doing HM but that’s too many diamonds for me tbh. I want to enjoy diamonds spawning
Right now on my red deer grind a diamond every 50ish kills gives me a slight motivation boost
I'm doing HM and maybe its because its my first grind, I'm 450 ish kills in and only have had one diamond and two trolls. I genuinely dunno if I'm doing something wrong ;n;
Yeah, that’s not normal for HM
Ugh. I try to watch youtube tutorials, but they really are quite vague about what groups to shoot, what a "good" zone is, and how to increase kills per hour.
Mostly they just summarize to "put tents and blinds down and kill stuff :D" and like... I know that. I don't know how to grind once I am set up lol
Try watching scarecrow tutorials he explains it very good (even tho I still don't understand it)
Might go do that now. I'm already burnt out on the grind because nothing has come of it at all :/
What are u grinding ??
When I started out I would set up on zones with multiple 5+ stags. Once I started killing them they would move around or respawn smaller so I would move my tents to where there are more 5+ stags. Just keep doing that until it’s consistent
Also what has worked for me is screw any guilds and shoot only male big lvls and watch them get bigger which had worked out for me
It’s really very simple
Mel is way more suited to explain this than me lol
Makes the both of us 🤣😭
Just don’t shoot the smaller ones, only shoot the bigger ones and over time you’ll end up with a decent amount of smols which increases the number of big ones
Moose. Its hard to find groups with more than two bulls. I've got a few zones completely shot down to LVL 1s/2s and females, but even when I check the rest of the map I'm constantly spammed with LVl 3s. I'm currently killing LVL 3, 4, and 5s. Only had 3 LVL 5s show up.
You don’t need any complicated stuff
I'm hunting moose as my grind as well it's very easy shoot big males and watch them get bigger but Mel will explain better
Then continue what you’re doing. 3-5s are shooters, 1/2s leave
If there’s only 3 animals in a zone, shoot the biggest bull
So is it just bad luck then? Because its reaaaally starting to slow down.
Because you need to leave 2 minimum per zone to get respawns there
OH. Two of either gender, or two males?
I can send you a recent recording I did on it if you’d like.
Idk if it's a good idea Mel can confirm but pick only a few lakes not like the whole map to grind on
I'd love that haha, sorry
Just two animals, male or female doesn’t matter! 😊
No problem, I’ll shoot you a dm
Okay, that's what I've been doing which is good :D
Dunno what to do with solo males though. If theyre big, I shoot them, like everything else, idk if that's the "right" way to do it
I shoot the lone males and usually more spawn in that zone
I do exactly the same. Lvl 1/2 I leave, 3-5 I kill (for animals maxing at 5 like moose)
Hello there
A 6 is a silver ?? Damn
But 8 Is a potential
8 is guaranteed gold
Oh it only makes it at 9??
granted with this, I've only had one instance I remember of a L7 red deer being silver
Well. Guaranteed at least gold.
There's been a grand total of one (1) diamond L8 red deer.
Fr??
Afaik there’s been 0 legit ones
Every single one I’ve seen posted was hacked
I never understood this whole codex thing 😭 like it shows the kill that's abt it
I’ve seen hacked stuff where the codex would be fine
Yeah exactly
Codex isn’t really helpful unless there’s like
20 mela great ones
I never seen that before
It wouldn’t surprise too much if they could somehow do it
But it doesn’t make a lot of sense
What even are thr chances of that is there like a certain %
Nothing that can be known due to Rule J.
It would have to be a tru rack thing I’d assume
aside from "stupid-rare"
Rule j??
So even if it wasn’t rule j I don’t think it could be calculated
Discussion of exact spawn rate %s etc
Spawn rates are only known via hacking game files.
But like I don’t think it could even be calculated if someone tried
Oh is that not allowed
Nope it def is not.
^what lyra said
Ooh
But in theory I don’t think you could know anyway without knowing the min/max of tru racs and then trying to work it out based off that
It would just be stupidly rare
Anything that has tru racks it doesn’t overly surprise me if it can happen because tru racs be wildin
But for reds it must be ridiculously rare if true
Just cuz how many 8s have been shot in search of great ones?
I dread to think actually lol just a few million 😭
171 kill n got a diamond let’s keep going also got a Mel female lvl 1 n piebald so two rares 1 diamond n 179 kills in
Went to my rev grind for them as well n got a 299 so close to 300
tbh most of it is overly complicated
all you need to do is get half your pop to lower levels
thats it.
so 1 - 3 levels you just shoot 2 and 3s
1-5s you just shoot 3s to 5s
ight you already know i gotta ask ron the questions
level 9 you just shoot 5 to 9s
its not complicated really
just gotta just keep at it
yall talkin bout red deer?
as above covers all
but the main thing is get half your pop as low levels
then higher levels spawn faster
if you wanna do slacker herd management and not get all technical
you can just leave all level 3s and 4s
well you leave 4s and below
and then the zones will just shape into spawning stuff above 3s and 4s
so you then wont need to worry about it
yea
im about 8000 in on reds
i just did mine by shooting all deer besides 3s and 4s
and 2s
which i had only 1 of
shoot all 5s they will mainly go to lower levels
ye
i did start to do that
towards later grind
and also
unless higher level 5s which will mainly go up
if it is a good zone
and just happened to spawn 3 or 4
shoot them
anyway that wat i did
got a go in 2.5k
with good hm you should get a go in under 1500 kills
on average sometimes lower than 1000 kills
unless unlucky
ye
i just wasnt focusing it
i didnt rlly care
i played for like
1 hour after school
sometimes more
SHOULD be under 1500? I'm at 450 ish right now and not much is happening besides a couple diamonds and a rare
I wouldn’t say “should”…more like hope. It’s still RNG as to whether one actually spawns
Like in that ballpark
But you might get one way faster or later depending on RNG
But HM grinds in general take a lot less
Also to begin with HM takes a lil while to get going, especially if you do it the more casual way without stacking etc, then it tends to get quicker
average for gos is about 1500 - 2000
doesnt mean you will get one within that but overall it seems to be the ball park figure
with herd management done right its often lower
I should have 2-3 by now if that was the case
well its the case of how good people do herd management
from my last 4 gos they been pretty consistant about 700 kills each
I’m still not convinced HM helps that much if at all
so collect all kilss
i think it obviously does
and i dont think its as complicated as people make out
People have had just as consistent non HM grinds
I wish EW would just give us an answer
the problem with that some cheat so you cant go off that
People who are definitely not cheating
no we dont need to know the answer
that would ruin the game
personally think a go is just a elevated diamond
with less chance of spawning
thats all
I don’t think it’d “ruin” the game
it would
you never should know the magic
or how to do it
as it ruins the illusion
Great ones arent hard
They are for me 😂
its mainly just time spent and herd management now. more time you spend grinding
more great ones you will get
not skilled
just time
well
i mean
if you cant hit a shot
then you aint never gunna get a great one
It helps if you can kill multiple at once
bit of play time you only need to do 200m shots with guns that drop easily
but if you grinding anyway
most can do this
so its just time and herd management
its why literally all the people with most gos play a lot and herd manage
its that simple
more you play more gos you get
you can get gos even quicker if you selective shoot in deeper herd management but many dont do it
as they dont understand it
but its actually simple
When you say selective shooting do you mean levels 5+ (for red deer obviously)?
no
in advanced herd management when you obviously got all lower levels
you only shoot very high levels
and only a few
So after several thousand kills of herd management
depends on how well its been done
but with low shooting pool
you only shoot highest scorers
then you will get diamonds spawn even faster
Which I don’t want. I want diamonds no faster than 50 kills cause I want them to have some value
there is no point shooting 5s 6s 7s at this point
as your pool is low numbers
and you just respawning the same levels
but this is in deeper herd management
only a few really actually understand herd management really
many just guess
if its rng why do people get gos in less kills with herd management ?
so concentrate look at your kills especially in deeper grinds
Bro I got like 18? Maybe more? Great ones in two months ish with herd management, vs 12 in like…3 years
Wait maths is hard
I had 12
Started towards the end of my 12th grind (had 13 because one was a multiplayer kill) now on 32
So whatever the difference is between 12 and technically I guess 31 if we don’t count the multiplayer kill cuz no grind
So 19
In around two months
Herd management 1000000000000000% affects great ones
(Being bad at maths hurts so much)
But there’s still RNG to it, so naturally there’s outliers
But if you plotted the whole communities herd management grinds and average kills on a graph, there will be a very clear trend, with a few outliers cuz bad luck with RNG gods
Rng gods hate me.
And also i make myself grind things like hirsch red deer and rancho wt so i cant hm them
my only 2 hm grinds currently are ec fallow, and srp bears in the proccess of hming them
Cuz me and my brother share an Xbox account so we have to switch off who gets the better map lol
Fallow pissed me off now. 4100 kills with 1 GO after 3.5 k and 120 dimes. Thats enough im starting to grind for my 4 th go red deer. Only got the small rack ( 3 times)
Hello, i have a few questions about the red deer grind, anybody can answer me?
I can try
i can
I can too
Thank you guys! Can we talk?
Sure
Oh with Mic I can't atm. I am with some friends rn
Okey maybe later?
why vc
what is the question
i wont talk
@granite crescent
you decide what lakes you make your main
if it has good zones
then keep the zones
?
has to be a good what?
heart?
hard
?
herd
ah
yeah
if it is a good herd
keep good zones
then shoot that herd
and zones with bad herd
get down to 3s and 4s
and 2s
but the good zones
keep them good
no
shoot the good herd
shoot the deer
