#

this is crazy

#

as soon as you say that there's WT there

#

WT appear on my map

plain raptor
#

magick

sly chasm
#

You dont delete a zone with hunting pressure it just becomes invisible to you and will appear again in the same place once the pressure decreases and you spot animals there again, you can only completely remove it by killing evey animal that is tied to it. Even then it will come back nearby but might require others that are close by to be deleted first.

acoustic cedar
#

That’s not how I’ve experienced it

#

If I kill 4 or more animals the zone deletes

#

Then re appears close by (normally)

#

It’s not always in the same place

sly chasm
#

So what happens to animals that are still tied? ...

acoustic cedar
#

They move

#

Idk how to describe it but they move to a slightly different location- I’ve had it loads of times

rigid forge
#

if you kill all or all but one of the animals in the herd, the game generates an entire new herd (in the case of one left, that becomes an individual)

pliant oak
#

i just got knocked out by a melanistic mule deer thats a first 😂

round kiln
#

lucky

#

i got hurt by a lvl 3 wt

pliant oak
#

it was a female

#

so.....

#

also first 3 of the day on respawn

plain raptor
acoustic cedar
#

Thank you

plain raptor
#

I had a zone that had a single female, deleted that zone and another zone happened to get another female when it would usually just have two

acoustic cedar
#

I end up sitting here like…idek anymore maybe I’m losing my mind😂

plain raptor
#

We could be completely wrong which is the sad part but from what I experience that is what happens

#

I feel like I know so much but have so much left to learn

acoustic cedar
#

Yeah I’ve seen it happen a ton in terms of zones moving on one particular lake but yeah sometimes I just end up feeling like I’m going crazy lol

round kiln
#

#

#

plain raptor

He feet hang

round kiln
#

another pic coming up

#

i need to get on top of the lodge

real radish
#

@round kiln nice GO 😂💀

round kiln
#

real GO coming up

#

i mean, what even is this lodge

raven ridge
#

So I'm planning to track all my diamonds and rares on a map and made this quickly. Figured someone here may find this useful for their own grind before I fill it GreatOne

plain raptor
#

I see my first piebald

round kiln
#

ee

#

buc or doh

plain raptor
#

Buck

round kiln
#

nice

#

i have 7 ish piebalds

plain raptor
#

On another zone, will get him in a minute

round kiln
#

8 ish albinos

#

2 mela

plain raptor
#

It's in trophy shots

round kiln
#

nice

#

** B E L L Y R U B**

#

he died underwater

#

and that launched him

#

so

#

i found some bighorn

#

that stayed there

#

after 5 game exits

#

how

main apex
outer badger
#

fell asleep on the couch.. haha, havent been too much sleep last 2 weeks.. after i got my GO last night, i havent hunted.. time to start looking for his brothers 😉

round kiln
#

so i deleted that australia doe zone

#

it hasn't come back

#

after 30+ runs

#

no transfers either

outer badger
#

sometimes it takes a bit time before i find new zone after i delete one.. often i find it on a different lake

#

also, when i delete a zone, i notice i get more animals in many of the other zones.. bigger herds

round kiln
#

none of that happening

outer badger
#

happens to me all the time.. the herds also can move a little within their zone.. i have had to move my tripods many time cuss of that

pliant oak
#

that bottom lake down left i got like 30 whitetail there now 😁

round kiln
#

how

pliant oak
#

dunno they swapped there

#

few groups

round kiln
#

also, do you have a tent there?

#

and where is the zone

pliant oak
#

but if you shoot they go over the back and you can just shoot away

outer badger
#

i have a lot there too.. i had 3 zones there, but the one by the little pond i dont like to hunt, so i delete it

pliant oak
#

stand on mountain and smash

round kiln
#

will try

pliant oak
#

its not bad tbh as they go over back and its all open

#

just follow the way they go

round kiln
#

tent at the top of the mountain?

pliant oak
#

i havent got tent just use the outpost there

round kiln
#

i got a zone there that no deer come to

pliant oak
#

spawn go on left and go high up

round kiln
#

because of the outpost

pliant oak
#

look down on lakes maybe even fire shot see if they go

plain raptor
#

Bottom left, is it the tiny one?

outer badger
#

i like to do it like this.. spawn lodge.. then the closest zone wont spawn cuss too close to lodge.. then i shoot the other zone from tripod.. then i fast travel to the tent by the zone i just shot, then the other zone spawns.. then i shoot them

#

old screenshot, so i didnt have my current setup when taken

outer badger
#

a tip i wud like to share if ur on pc.. i sometimes fat fingered F when pressing G to auto run, and then i changed my zeroing on the scope without knowing.. i moved auto run to F, and put zeroing to C.. it's a lot better than having to press G to auto run also..

balmy summit
#

@round kiln can i see your great one

round kiln
#

done done and done

balmy summit
#

Watch my mela be a diamond or the GO

outer badger

diamond or GO mela is the dream

hidden pagoda

hidden pagoda
outer badger
#

wow.. want one of those for sure

#

#

hidden pagoda
#

Honestly I don’t care what rack I get

#

As long as it isn’t the small one

outer badger
#

yea, i can see that one.. i wud have been happy as long as it was a go.. but i havea favorite

hidden pagoda
#

Honestly almost being 3400 deer in and not having a GO I just want one at this point

outer badger
#

hes prob right around the corner 🙂

rigid forge
hidden pagoda
#

Yes

outer badger
#

GL on the hunt.. let me know if u want that link

hidden pagoda
rigid forge
#

right at the top of his estimate from what you said, right?

hidden pagoda
#

Yep

rigid forge
#

yup, right at the top

#

right at the very very top of his estimate

outer badger
#

beauty

balmy summit
#

does anyone have a pic of all the known great one racks

balmy summit
#

nvm i got them all

outer badger
#

nice.. u mind sharing em?

#

wud be interesting to see

#

daym.. just had 2 lvl3 trolls.. nothing good so far

indigo willow
outer badger
#

nice one.. mine is either the top left, or the one next to him.. have to study it more to be sure

#

yea.. top middle is the one i have

neon cedar
#

@outer badger yours is the top center

outer badger
#

english is not my main language, so sayin top middle might be wrong..

acoustic cedar
#

No you are correct!

#

First run of the day, decent albino and a diamond lvl 2. Not a bad start

acoustic cedar
#

And now a lvl 3

#

Good first run this

#

That’s 5 trolls and 15 diamonds now

pliant oak
#

hoping i have a good run today wasnt bad yesterday nothing special

#

video first then back to grind 😁

acoustic cedar
#

Just smoked a big 269 while he was stuck in a bush

#

Getting some good respawns it seems

pliant oak
#

yeah cant wait to jump back on video done

#

ready for some grinding

outer badger
#

aaand that was 2 hours on the pillow.. my sleep is completely broken lol..

outer badger
acoustic cedar
#

Trolls suck but in my eyes I see them as progress

outer badger
#

true. i had enough diamonds in a way.. what i really want is a decent mela and albino 🙂

#

have zero melas.. and a silver albino

pliant oak
acoustic cedar
#

Lol

pliant oak
#

its just part of the grind no need to get dissapointed

acoustic cedar
#

I gotta put a load of clips together of some of my recent bucks for later

#

Yeah exactly

#

I like keeping a record of what’s coming and going, idc if they’re diamond or not lol

outer badger
#

same.. im so glad i recorded when i got the GO... i can relive that moment when i want lol.. might be the only time i got one.. never know 🙂

#

when takin that shot, i was actually scared haha

pliant oak
#

yeah imagine hitting spine or something

#

tempted to bow next one

#

some people say shoot it with 22lr 😂

outer badger
#

yea, i could easily been messing that up by hitting the spine.. i was shaky.. normally, a easy shot, but when its about that one, u get nervous

pliant oak
#

hmmm what is the weakest weapon to use on whitetail...

#

but still get trophy rating

outer badger
#

the .22, isnt it?

#

oh

#

243?

regal cosmos
#

there's the 223 and air rifle

pliant oak
#

air rifle a great one 😁

#

starts practicing

outer badger
#

oh, the 223 is strong enough?

regal cosmos
#

I wanna get my 3rd with the 357 pistol 😄

outer badger
#

im thinking pistol as well

pliant oak
#

some nice looking pistols

outer badger
#

if i can get close enough

regal cosmos
#

but its weeeak

outer badger
#

maybe the one u get from a mission.. looks nice.. is it a .44?

#

with white grip

outer badger
outer badger
#

thats the so called "wonky" one, right?

#

yea, i've seen it.. also saw KC's vid.. i also thought that one was missing from that pic

#

wut?

round kiln
#

why do you have no image perms

full cave
#

Do people have a double GO huddle by now?

balmy summit
#

from what i know

#

no

#

grim dv has 5

#

would have like 7 but a few bugged out

#

This is everything that I could find.

#

Wish I had a better angle of the eighth

#

The last one is the same as the second but for some reason its a bit wonked so I added it anyways

shrewd pollen
#

I want 7th or 4th

outer badger
#

hoping for #3 next

balmy summit
#

A mod should totally pin these pics

outer badger
#

think #1 is the one i got

balmy summit
#

Also, seems the first three are the most common

#

And I've only seen one of the 7th

#

and 9th

#

For some reason, the 6th is the most common of the combination racks

outer badger
#

thats possible

#

im happy as long as i dont get the same as i already have

balmy summit
#

I want a huddle of the one you have

#

just like three of them

outer badger
#

all 3 the same?

balmy summit
#

of specifically the big rack

#

the one you have

outer badger
#

yes, i like mine the best of all ive seen.. so i was lucky.. the one that looks bigger, is too wide imo

balmy summit
#

The drop tines one is the most realistic imo

#

So I like that one the best

outer badger
#

ur the expert 😉

balmy summit
#

lol I just spent like an hour scouring through this chat looking for pics

#

I am by all means no expert

outer badger
balmy summit
#

3rd one is massive

outer badger
#

on that pic.. the one top left is also nice, but the onei have is better lookin.. the first is a bit too wide

round kiln
#

3 big racks

balmy summit
#

Yeah just different scoring big bois

outer badger
#

yes

balmy summit
#

Can someone combine the pics that I got

pliant fox
#

that first one is ssuuuppeerrr wide for that rack

outer badger
#

it is

#

well.. gotta keep grinding ^^ need 2 more for the huddle 😉

balmy summit
#

I’ll resume for my second grind later today

outer badger
#

GL 🙂

balmy summit
#

You too brother

plain raptor
#

I can edit it to make them not cover their antlers at the top

outer badger
#

nice

balmy summit
#

@plain raptor That was fast, thank you : )

outer badger
#

i know its a tall order, but imagine having a huddle of albino, mela, and piebald GO's

balmy summit
#

I saw a hacked one from a year ago way up in this chat

outer badger
#

damn cheaters

balmy summit
#

Yup

outer badger
#

having a legit one must be the most insane u can get in this game

balmy summit
#

LC’s is the most insane thing I’ve ever seen

outer badger
#

LC?

balmy summit
#

@abstract atlas

outer badger
#

yea, thats a nice one

balmy summit
#

The only legit rare GO that I know of

outer badger
#

anyone ever got a mela?

#

oh, ok

pliant oak
#

kinda like 3 and 4 on grims pics hopefully thats the next one for me

balmy summit
#

nope

pliant oak
#

3 runs today absolutley tiny males like all level 1s

#

you know something is due

outer badger
#

yea, im also keen on #3

#

u have this one, ron?

pliant oak
#

yeah two of them

outer badger
#

ok.. best one imo

pliant oak
#

then the wonky left one

outer badger
#

ok

pliant oak
outer badger
#

its a GO, but not the one i wish for next 🙂 but i'll take it if i get it 😉

pliant oak
#

just shot that after 3 empty runs

#

wonky

outer badger
#

yea, a bit wonky that one

#

ive only got troll lvl3's today.. guess its warming up

pliant oak
#

was dead yesterday last few runs and two of the runs earlier

#

knew something was due when its like that

#

literally no males were spawning or all small

outer badger
#

yea.. i had it like that for 15-16 hours straight before the GO spawned

#

i got one tiny diamond in that grind before it

pliant oak
#

im starting to wonder if certain racks spawn certain things

#

maybe too deep might be worth looking at

outer badger
#

we can only speculate 🙂

pliant oak
#

might do some runs only shooting certain rack style

real radish
#

thats mine 636.4

pliant oak
#

big un

real radish
#

yeah big rack he was 109.93 kg

outer badger
#

thats a nice boy 🙂 scored a bit better than mine.. mine was 634.60

pliant oak
#

think weight does maybe have something to do with the rack

real radish
#

at that point theyre all big lol

outer badger
#

sure is 🙂

#

tbh, i think its completely random..

#

that all u can do is kill, and get lucky

balmy summit
#

@plain raptor did u ever get to editing the collage

real radish
#

you cant even compare a 400s to a 635+ different racks score differently so is just preference

balmy summit
#

a great one is a great one lol

real radish
#

yep

outer badger
#

it is

balmy summit
#

theyre all equally rare i think

#

other than the rare fur types

outer badger
#

they are all welcome to my lodge 😉

plain raptor
balmy summit
#

aw alright, thank you though

acoustic cedar
#

I just killed off a few rubbish zones so fingers crossed that something good comes along from that. So many dead deer lol

outer badger
#

same 🙂 and i found new ones after.. still havent found anything good.. many max weight estimate bucks, but havent gotten any good respawns yet

acoustic cedar
#

Yeah I’ve killed an absolute ton of big deer today

#

So many 85-100 Bois

#

Lots of 91-94kg lvl 2s as well which is great to see

outer badger
#

had 4-5 lvl2 diamond potentials, but non have made it

outer badger
#

damn "frozen" animals.. wonder how often i miss out in the zones with lots of brush.. i spot them, and it says "traveling" but they just stand there.. ofc they wont come when using caller

#

probably a bunch that i never see.. many zones i shoot from distance.. just use caller to pull em out

balmy summit
#

they needa fix that

pliant oak
#

run round lake find zone

#

often they frozen after running or being spooked

acoustic cedar
#

Sooo I uh

#

Just had a troll 3 respawn as a 3 like the same zone

#

Lmao

#

Takes the total up to 17 diamonds on grind no 4

outer badger
#

nice 🙂

#

my hair is probably gonna turn grey before i see a diamond again 😛

fair wind
#

This close to having one🤏🏽

plain raptor
#

Oh damn

round kiln
outer badger
#

are they still bugged on layton?

fair wind
#

Thats ps4

plain raptor
#

That would have been your first one, right?

fair wind
#

Ye

outer badger
#

that really sux man

plain raptor
#

Man, that sucks 😦

round kiln
#

50 kills tho

short lava
#

Did you kill it yet

fair wind
#

Yeah, glad it didn’t happen on my Xbox grind, still a bugged go tho

#

I killed it

short lava
#

Oh dang

fair wind
#

And experimented on it, I left it there and closed the application

outer badger
#

so, is the bugged ones only on ps, or does it still happen on pc?

fair wind
#

Xbox and Ps

plain raptor
#

Only on console I believe

iron valve
#

Only on console sense the devs are taking there sweet time

outer badger
#

ok.. cuss im semi grinding on layton as well.. dont want to waste my time there if there is a chance they're bugged

plain raptor
#

PC is fine

iron valve
outer badger
#

ok

pliant oak
#

its the certification

#

microsoft and sony

rigid forge
#

Partially

iron valve
#

Depends on if they put it into the certification process yet

outer badger
#

speaking of the devs.. they have a lot to fix now.. holy "#¤#¤.. the outposts being broken in many reserves, frozen animals....aaaand for the love of god.. i hope they fix the bush sound .. its driving me nuts

rigid forge
#

#EWFixYourFuckingGame

pliant oak
#

its not that bad

fast ridge
#

Not much any of us can do if they're on summer break. Apparently breaks this time of year are A Major Thing in Sweden

pliant oak
#

yeah summer time sweden takes break

outer badger
pliant oak
#

no

fast ridge
#

Shit timing is all

rigid forge
#

Probably a national holiday for them

iron valve
#

Its definitely bad but theres nothing we can do

outer badger
#

just the outposts being broke it self is pretty bad

fast ridge
#

Not on all the maps

#

Rancho, for example, it's just the one outpost that you can't FT to

outer badger
#

yea, but ive been to several reserves and they're broken

pliant oak
#

if it was constantly crashing id say bad but you can literally play all day with a few small issues

iron valve
#

PC isnt insanely bad but console is another story....

rigid forge
#

Well both PC and console got short straws this time around

iron valve
#

I just want geese 😔

pliant oak
#

console is mainly slowed up because of varification

outer badger
#

personally, the bush sound buggs me the most.. its really driving me nuts

pliant oak
#

builds can go straight out for pc but cant on console

#

shame they cant go out the same for both

iron valve
#

I dont have a huge problem with them having different releases I just wish the devs would keep us updated instead of leaving us in the dark

outer badger
#

anyone else here have the bush sound bug? its listed as "rare" in the known bugs.. its not rare for me.. i have it almost all the time

fast ridge
#

It's definitely more frequent on some maps than others

outer badger
#

i get it on all maps. if i open the map.. somtimes spam M, it goes away.. but only until next time i walk through a bush..

plain raptor
#

Frustration was already forming way before they took vacation so them making that announcement which could have been one that informed the community of the status of the release was probably icing on the cake

#

I don’t blame them for taking a vacation but I understand the frustration of seeing people have the new map and still not being able to enjoy it too

outer badger
#

agree

rigid forge
plain raptor
#

I am getting tired of whitetail grinding. Off to med-ved I go

rigid forge
#

Lyyyyyyyyyyyyynx

plain raptor
#

Yesh

outer badger
#

and u can try to find this 😉 had to brag about my max score musk 😉

plain raptor
#

Oh man, did all of my tents and tripods get erased from here too

#

Damn it

rigid forge
#

Dats not good

outer badger
#

thats a thing also? wow

rigid forge
#

Are your outposts still in one piece?

plain raptor
#

Yes

rigid forge
#

Alright, so, that’s something at least

outer badger
#

so, u lose all the tents and tripods, or do they go back to ur stash?

plain raptor
#

They go bye bye

rigid forge
#

That’s a fat RIP

outer badger
#

omg.. that can be a lot of cash

plain raptor
#

I had an internet issue and it said I do not own these dlcs and it took me back to Layton

rigid forge
#

Do you have a backup saved anywhere?

plain raptor
#

I went back on Rancho and it wiped all of my tripods and tents, guess it did it here too

#

No, not for here

#

I checked Hirsch and it was fine so I assumed it was just Rancho but I guess not

rigid forge
#

I back up my save files regularly in case stuff like this happens. I strongly recommend you do the same

plain raptor
#

It’s alright though, it wasn’t many. Maybe like 4-5 for the lynx

#

Now that I am getting better at the game I can make it back easily

outer badger
#

if that happens to me on rancho, im gonna uninstall.. lol.. im maxed out on tents and tripods

rigid forge
pliant oak
#

cotw fabled ones chat

#

😁

outer badger
#

lol 🙂

acoustic cedar
#

Well no GO today, but many deer down. Well over 400 today. Maybe I’ll get lucky tomorrow

outer badger
#

400 is a pretty good amount, i have to say 😉

storm fern
#

4-4-4-400!

#

Holy cow.

round kiln
#

damn

outer badger
#

i just started again.. took a break, and a nap earlier 🙂

#

first thing i did now was deleting 2 zones.. some zones in el potrero i dislike a lot.. when i find them again, i insta delete.. lol

round kiln
#

i blast does

outer badger
#

i also see that after deleting zones, i get a lot more animals in many of the other zones.. and that i can like 🙂

outer badger
#

and here is probably the 4th lvl3 troll i get today.. .

#

yuup.. 251.80

round kiln
#

oof

balmy summit
#

said this in flint’s discord and imma say it again, we need a trophy lodge that’s just a big cabela’s or bass pro shops

#

i’d pay $20 for a dlc like that

outer badger
#

u mean a bigger trophy lodge?

balmy summit
#

sure

#

or a big spring creek manor

outer badger
#

yea, i wud like that too.. more floor space for mounts

balmy summit
#

just dont like the aesthetic of elk and moose in a safari themed lodge

outer badger
#

that too

#

id gladly buy a dlc for a better lodge for sure

plain raptor
#

Sprink Creek but better, yes please

#

Antlered species look better in that lodge I agree

outer badger
#

yea.. but its something depressing about spring creek.. dont know what it is.. maybe it needs more light or something

balmy summit
#

Doesn’t even need to be like Spring Creek

#

I just want something western

#

for western animals

outer badger
#

yea

#

i dont use spring creek.. i dont like the feel of it

outer badger
#

finally i got something.. gold pie.. only had silver before this 🙂

balmy summit
#

What’s the new whitetail drink time on layton

outer badger
#

12:00-16:00

balmy summit
#

jesus

#

ty

outer badger
#

and 12:30-16:30

#

forgot that... had to check my screenshots lol

#

u found all ur zones?

balmy summit
#

havent found any on layton haha

outer badger
#

hold on

balmy summit
#

rancho came out like a week after i got the game

#

outer badger
#

the ones i found

balmy summit
#

tyty

outer badger
#

cud be useful

#

np 🙂

balmy summit
#

do u grind layton or rancho

outer badger
#

took me over 20 hours to find em.. so can save u some time 😉

#

i grind mostly rancho, but i sometimes take a few rounds on layton too

#

i have set up a route there, with tents and tripods

#

i hunt 15 zones there

#

i picked the ones i found to be the best ones

balmy summit
#

we need make some kind of great one club

outer badger
#

lol 🙂

full cave
#

be cool if there was a role you got for a channel here

outer badger
#

its in this chat room already 😛

balmy summit
#

im sure some people would cheat to get in

full cave
#

probably

outer badger
#

did u get a GO, Grimm?

balmy summit
#

yeah i thought you already knew

#

oh

#

my other name was “landon”

outer badger
#

im senile 😉

balmy summit
outer badger
#

oh.. u changed name

balmy summit
#

yessir

#

bc my name ingame is grimm

#

so i just changed my discord name to fit

outer badger
#

awright.. u got the wonky boy 🙂

#

gottcha

#

i was going to mess with u, and say "but u need to have a GO to be member of the club" 😛

balmy summit
#

nice try bucko

outer badger
#

lol

regal cosmos
#

thats the beauty of Layton 🤦🏾‍♂️ 😅

outer badger
#

oh, i expected at least many of em to be the same

regal cosmos
#

maybe only half of them

urban cipher
#

how many great ones u got grim

outer badger
#

ok.. well, at least when he walks the map, he can check if he got the ones i found

balmy summit
#

im the grim with the less amount lol

#

1

urban cipher
#

oh

balmy summit
#

the other one has like 5

urban cipher
#

u arent the real

balmy summit
#

i have two m's

urban cipher
#

oh lol

balmy summit
#

the other is @rugged halo

outer badger
#

wannabe 😛

urban cipher
#

i didnt know grim had one

outer badger
#

well.. that other grim, he's had some serious luck..

balmy summit
#

he's killed like 20,000 whitetails

#

i don't think it's just luck

outer badger
#

ok, not only luck ofc.. but even if u kill a ton, u need luck to get 5

full cave
#

you know you kill a lot of deer well when you have a method named after you-

balmy summit
#

he had a few bugged ones

#

so he'd have 7

#

it's about 3,000 whitetails per great one

#

i'd say that's typical

#

average

#

just lots of dedication

outer badger
#

prob is yea.. i was about 2500 when i got mine

full cave
#

some get a GO like 100 wt in like that’s insane luck

outer badger
#

yes

#

i hope i get one more before i get to 5K

balmy summit
#

I got mine 700-800 in

full cave
balmy summit
#

haven't exactly been counting

#

but it's a rough estimate

#

if diamonds are 1%

outer badger
#

yea.. hoping for that .. lol.. then i might get it tomorrow 😛

balmy summit
#

and I have 8 diamonds then

#

around 800 lol

regal cosmos
#

I'm on 6044 as of today, lol

outer badger
#

i had about 25 diamonds at 2500kills

balmy summit
#

the 1% thing is pretty consistent with diamonds

outer badger
#

6 rares, counting 2 pie does

#

seems like it yes

#

like 1 every 100kill

#

i had days i got 3 and 4

#

then some slow days, like today.. 4 lvl3 trolls

regal cosmos
#

gonna marathon it today ...

#

pls spawn one today 🙏🏾 wanna take a break from this grind...haha

outer badger
#

my longest was 25 hours

#

had several 20+ hours

regal cosmos
balmy summit
#

bro

outer badger
#

steam says past 2 weeks i had 240 hours

balmy summit
#

what

#

you don't have a job or anything

#

DANG

outer badger
#

i did a early retirement

storm fern
#

Nice pie @outer badger

balmy summit
#

niceee

outer badger
#

thx 🙂

#

im 45 yo

#

almost .. in a few days

storm fern
#

Happy early birthday

outer badger
#

lol.. thx 🙂

#

i dont have time for work.. gotta grind u know 😉

#

just joking .. u better work guys

full cave
outer badger
#

something i used to do, until i didnt have to anymore 😉

regal cosmos
#

ahh lucky man

#

I hope i can retire by 45, its unlikely, but...its the dream haha

outer badger
#

if u work hard, u might

#

guess we're getting off topic again lol.. back to the grind 😉

regal cosmos
#

yeap, back to marathon murdering of WTs

full cave
#

damn imagine the amount of venison our characters would have though-

round kiln
#

infinite

full cave
#

and the gutting job too

outer badger
#

need to hire 50 ppl for it lol

full cave
#

lmao

regal cosmos
#

haha, a nice welcome to the start of the grind

outer badger
#

nice 🙂

#

had 4 lvl3 trolls.. about time for me to get a nice one too

outer badger
regal cosmos
#

271.4 - max weight unit

outer badger
#

nice one! 🙂

storm fern
#

Wait thats max wt. I thought it was 275

outer badger
#

max weight.. not score

storm fern
#

Jeez i am out of it today

#

Sorry

outer badger
#

😉

#

275.5 is max score

verbal smelt
#

No it's not...

regal cosmos
verbal smelt
#

No I beat that recently... with TruRACS there might not be a top

#

There is a max weight...

#

I'd imagine if I barely went over it to 275.53... then there likely is something where the score can go a bit higher

#

A couple days later I likely shot that same deer as a respawn at max weight and it was only a 262... so TruRACS may be giving some wiggle room to max scores

regal cosmos
#

oh i guess its 275.5-ish then haha

#

havent seen one higher go 276 so far....

verbal smelt
#

Yeah it's a bit odd... you get the full score in the lodge

regal cosmos
#

nice, huge boi

verbal smelt
#

Yeah see TruRACS is the one holding the dice... max weight is only part of the score

regal cosmos
#

yea totally, which makes each animal unique.

#

each GO unique. 😄

spice trellis
verbal smelt
#

Yup which is why the mods know a faked one from the real ones... because they've got a database of the faked/traded ones

spice trellis
#

Assuming a truracs animal, ofc

verbal smelt
#

However I was jazzed that I got that one... I think that was only my third max weight animal (not counting small game/birds)

#

Max weight depending on species is REALLY rare in some of them

#

Unless you're @rigid forge who will commit genocide that makes tyrants take notes to find them...

balmy summit
#

My 275.5 is a 275.53 as well

verbal smelt
#

Welcome to the club then...

regal cosmos
#

hmm... we might be on to something

#

that might the absolute maximum?

balmy summit
#

Guess that’s all we know for now

#

If its hitting that decimal point every time then something’s up

nocturne haven
#

Help....I am on xbox console and literally no WT respawning...literally aet time to 12 and walked the length of the river and no WT anywhere...not even foot prints...just moose/bear/coyote...hunting pressure is fairly low...anyway to reset? I have exited/restarted/changed maps???? I have killed every WT on the map 😫

rugged halo
regal cosmos
rugged halo
#

Well yeah. Lol

rugged halo
nocturne haven
#

ok thanks...will try that now

outer badger
#

Good morning! No GO taken while i took a nap? 🙂

balmy summit
#

I find it cute how people post their diamond canada geese in the trophy gallery chat

outer badger
#

geese not good enough for ya? 🙂

balmy summit
#

Too common honestly

outer badger
#

maybe not for them 🙂

#

i wud have posted it.. i havent hunted geese in years, so if i got a diamond, id be happy

#

dont think i even have a diamond

#

back then, it was something calle "consecutive harvest".. if that wasnt 100% u would not be able to get a diamond..

#

that messed up alot of diamonds for me , cuss i was not aware of how it worked

calm torrent
#

me proudly showing my silver duck like a child

#

lol

#

he will be praised

outer badger
#

lol 🙂 nothing wrong with that.. as long as ur happy getting it, its all good 🙂

calm torrent
#

I've had a bit of poopoo luck with my hunting lately i cant seem to find good spots these days

outer badger
#

are u hunting drink zones?

#

if not, that might help

#

just look around lakes when the animal ur tryin to get have drink time

#

thats what we in this chat are doing, trying to get the "great one" .. we hunt drink zones.. and when the drink time is over, we reset time

calm torrent
#

i try i think im just blind as a bat 🥴

outer badger
#

if u google, there is maps posted with hotspots for animals

calm torrent
#

tis the same for everyone?

outer badger
#

hotspots usuallly are..

#

it can show u what lakes are good for certain animals

#

also many utube videos on stuff like that

calm torrent
#

🥴 🤔 ill look into them tomorrow

outer badger
#

Gl 🙂

balmy summit
#

just made that for everyone who’s curious

#

there’s this crooked one

outer badger
#

Nice 🙂

balmy summit
#

and @sly chasm could I get another angle of your second GO? The half and half.

outer badger
#

also nice that i finally found a lvl3 not being a troll 🙂

#

as i can see from my "files" this is actually the first diamond since i got the GO

orchid frigate
#

Wow!

#

Thanks for sending that compilation, I've never seen this variant before!

#

Does anyone have a side view of this one?

outer badger
#

thats a nice rack.. hope i get this one at some point

pliant oak
#

there is a diamond similar to that wonder if it comes off getting one of those

outer badger
#

i have a feeling its random.. but never know 🙂

nocturne haven
#

also disabled hunting club beta

outer badger
#

u have found ur zones?

nocturne haven
#

Yeah...been grinding a long time so all zones habe been added.....maybe because I wiped all WT the zones have moved?

#

*have

outer badger
#

u on layton?

nocturne haven
#

yep

outer badger
#

i had no issues there .. i made a route i follow.. 15 zones i hunt. i made a screenshot marked the zones with numbers so i can keep track on whats going on

nocturne haven
#

can u share...not sure I have 15....are you tslking drinking/resting/feeding combined? I tend to visit drinking zones only

#

maybe I have 15 if I include all trypes of zone

outer badger
#

lookin like this.. (Norwegian writing) some zones turned bad, so i swapped for others..

nocturne haven
#

tbh mine are similar

outer badger
#

they might move around a little within the zone.. not always drinking at the exact same spot.. but i always have em in calling range

nocturne haven
#

aothough I tend to start at ronochee bridge and move north on main river

outer badger
#

if u can afford tripods, it makes the hunting pressure easier to handle

nocturne haven
#

i have a couple set up

outer badger
#

but the animals shud be there if u have zone, and u havent deleted it by over shooting it

#

i only kill 2 pr zone on layton..

#

if u see there is ony 3 animals.. then kill only 1

nocturne haven
#

well it has been overshot completely....but this shouldnt mean no more spawn

#

only because nothing else to kill...

outer badger
#

if u shoot a herd down to 1 animal, nothing will respawn

#

there can be several herds within the same zone

nocturne haven
#

so logically when I have killed all WT that would mean no more available so end of hunting WT???? it just doesnt mske sense that it would work like that

outer badger
#

as an example.. if there is 6 animals in the zone.. there might be 2 groups.. maybe 1 group of 2 animals, and 1 group of 4

#

or 2 groups of 3.. u have to check the drinking tracks and see what number it says

nocturne haven
#

its a bit late for me then as I already wiped out all

outer badger
#

then u have to change the dead zones

outer badger
#

its a learning process 🙂

#

on Rancho its different.. its much easier finding ur zones.. more herds with many animals

#

and they're not all over the map

pliant oak
#

its probably quickest way of doing it

outer badger
#

yea, if not using tripods

pliant oak
#

jump round all the ponds with a 22lr

#

if you have hunting pressure you wont get em all there

#

hunt club beta was confirmed not to effect spawns

outer badger
#

i mean.. when i use tripods.. lets say i start a "zone1" .. when i get to meybe like zone4. zone 1 is already clear of HP.. do i can just so the route, no need to shoot anything else

pliant oak
#

depends on your route

#

how you hunt

nocturne haven
#

@pliant oak saw your vid of the albino yesterday on rancho....havent seen a herd like that for weeks!!!

pliant oak
#

but he has hunting pressure so need to remove that before anything

outer badger
#

like i posted in screenshot..

nocturne haven
#

mine are maybe 1 buck and 2 does maximum....if any

pliant oak
#

maybe you have something nice then or coming

#

you may of not seen it or its coming soon

nocturne haven
outer badger
#

he can remove that pressure by shooting wt's in different zones

pliant oak
#

shoot things elsewhere or as said shoot mallards

#

mallards are super easy to kill like 5 -10 in one go

outer badger
#

yea, but if u dont want to "waste " time on shoting other animals

nocturne haven
#

I went to mushrokm lake and that is now loaded with HP from blackbuck kills

pliant oak
#

sometimes its more effective than slowly hunting whitetail

outer badger
#

its not slow moving rapidly from zone to zone..

#

u can do that endlessly

pliant oak
#

as said depends on set up

#

how many you shooting and so on also where zones are

outer badger
#

thats true.. at least my herds on layton are usually so small that i only shoot 2 pr zone

#

and i use tripods.. so it makes hunting pressure a non existing problem

pliant oak
#

thing is some places may take 10 or more minutes to hunt with only say 2 - 3 whitetail

#

better off smashing loads of ducks and only visit that place every now and then

#

just to see if go is there

#

rancho left middle big lake like that

outer badger
#

thats why i went all my zones, picking the ones that i found easiest to hunt, and also had most big bucks

pliant oak
#

really hard to go round

#

yeah focus on easy zones

outer badger
#

i also set tents for all my route.. since i only hunt 15 zones, it can be done

pliant oak
#

or easier to hunt zones

#

my route takes about 20 - 30 minutes

#

then i drop to bottom slaughter loads of other animals

outer badger
#

i think i get to about zone 10 then i reset time, and continue

nocturne haven
#

I can try the ducks thing....but I already eliminated HP on main river and srill no respawn....maybe I am bugged

pliant oak
#

rather than spend loads of extra time for a few small hard to hunt zones and just visit them occasionally

plain raptor
#

I have about 20+ zones on Rancho

pliant oak
#

you need to get the hunting pressure off the zones for whitetail

plain raptor
#

Two lakes have thick brush I have to call them out from

pliant oak
#

incase the whitetail have swapped to other groups

#

or zones moved

outer badger
#

on rancho i hunt all zones.. in no particular order.. just where there is no HP, and i havent been there same time reset

pliant oak
#

try killing mallards or something to get the hunting pressure off. then when whitetail hunting pressure gone change time shut game down . then come back in

plain raptor
#

I go in a circle so by the time I am done going back around all pressure is gone from where I started and so forth

pliant oak
#

see if whitetail are there again

outer badger
#

im maxed out on tripods minus the one i carry on me, in case i need it

#

so hp is no issue

pliant oak
#

yeah but hunting pressure is probably his issue as its still there in places

#

so remove it to see if it is the issue

nocturne haven
#

I will screenshot.... give me a min

outer badger
#

yea, i get that.. but hes been over shooting his zones.. and killed em off

pliant oak
#

but make sure you start your game again when clear or reset time or both

#

prior rancho update is was actually easier on layton to be systematic

#

which is what console has

#

now with rancho is actually harder on layton

outer badger
#

so far on layton, its been a walk in the park.. 2 zones went sour for some reason, but i swapped em for 2 others

plain raptor
#

I haven’t been on Layton since the update. I’ve heard mixed reviews, mostly negative regarding whitetail

outer badger
#

havent shot a single doe there, or over shooting .. but 2 zones just ended with only does

#

but im only like 400 in on layton.. so it may change

pliant oak
#

its slower well was for me than before update

outer badger
#

i just hunt layton to get a change from rancho, even if only for an hour.. and hope to get lucky 😉

pliant oak
#

yeah i had a week break on there

outer badger
#

sooner or later i will end up with thousands of kills there as well, and the odds might tip my way

pliant oak
#

good luck

outer badger
#

ty 🙂

nocturne haven
#

pick the bones out of that 😂

outer badger
#

try finding all/most of ur zones (i found 46)

#

it takes time.. its a part of the preparation for the grind

nocturne haven
#

am I.missing any??

outer badger
#

i cant tell from thos pics.. u need to have screnshot of all the map, and cicle the zones for WT

#

like this

#

not cirlces on that, but i marked every zone i found.. (i found one after that pic)

nocturne haven
#

is it not true to say that all the GO on LL.have been on the main river?

outer badger
#

no idea

#

the respawns will come at the zones u hunt

#

not sure how it works if there are zones y havent found.. if he can spawn there

#

also... i wouldnt shoot wt's while finding the zones.. if u do that, then u have to go check every single zone after, to check if he spawned there

#

i even wrote down how many bucks and does in every single zone lol

#

just to have the info when setting my route

pliant oak
#

left and one of the right of it

#

the left one came near roonache outpost

outer badger
#

yea.. he can spawn in every zone.. depends on where u hunt, and get respawns

#

my keyboard is takin a piss.. not regging everytime, so i have to edit a lot lol

#

gonna order a new

pliant oak
#

dead run before last one again all small or most males not there then on this run loads of big 2s and this diamond

plain raptor
#

Nice!

acoustic cedar
#

I’m seeing lots of big 2s but nothing bigger today yet

#

Also realised I’ve been severely underestimating my WT count

#

I’m actually now closer to 11k kills

#

Which is mental

#

Started my 1st grind at 3k total harvests, I’m now at 16.6 k

#

So that’s 13k so minus 2k for other things that I’ve shot in between, easily 11k.

#

Crazy

regal cosmos
#

that's alot, dang

#

ended my grind today at 6,218 🥱

pliant fox
#

@odd flower congrats on the big boi!!

odd flower
#

@pliant fox thank you so much. Long grind, but now time to fill a multi mount with 2 more!

nocturne haven
#

I think this is pretty helpful....the hotspots pretty much all good for WT

I've always wondered about how maps like these are generated - is it just people's personal experiences?

rigid forge
#

mostly

nocturne haven
#

No I think the need zones are the same for everyone....certainly similar to mine

rigid forge
#

the actual zones are never the same between people

nocturne haven
#

really

rigid forge
#

the general locations tend to be pretty similar though

#

like, between two people, a whitetail herd will almost always be at a specific lake, but not in the exact same part of that lake

nocturne haven
#

not sure about this

plain raptor
#

Everyone’s maps would be exactly the same and they are not

rigid forge
#

exactly

plain raptor
#

They are similar but not 100% the same

rigid forge
#

like i said, the general areas tend to be the same, but the exact locations are not

nocturne haven
#

well I will take your word for it having not really done any comparisons

plain raptor
#

Hotspot maps, if you ever see one, show the general locations (usually lakes) because most of the time if someone has a drinking zone of a particular animal at that lake, so will others but not in the exact location

#

So if you have a whitetail drinking zone at a lake, yours might be near the east side of it while mine might be near the west

rigid forge
#

but they will almost always be at that lake

plain raptor
#

Yep

rigid forge
#

never the exact same spots at that lake, but at the same lake

balmy summit
#

Imagine if a noobie found the great one, didn’t know what it was, and just didn’t tax it

nocturne haven
#

this GO grind is turning almost into a scientific project....turn up at the right time...only kill bucks but not does...move the time forward...throw in some randomisation that noone seems to really be sure about....dont wear a backpack....spawn tents 250 m away...watch the wind and bingo.

plain raptor

#

We’d all be rolling in our graves

#

@orchid frigate you can ask @abstract atlas for more angles of that rack. It’s his second great one.

nocturne haven
#

are you saying the GO has larger antlers than other ones????? oh shit....

odd flower
round kiln
#

this is wrong

#

one lake has WT

#

the one northwest from "los matoralles" name

hmm? Never found a zone there?

Thanks for letting me know. Will jump over there again and check it out.

just take from any guide what works for you.

acoustic cedar
#

Yeah definitely. Another day another 400+ down

#

I will find him

#

One day lol

outer badger
#

lol, im sure u will 🙂

#

are u picking up ur kills?

acoustic cedar
#

I hope so lol and yeah 99% of them

#

If a doe runs a mile I’ll leave it but everything else I’ll collect

outer badger
#

me too.. takes longer, but i like to get that cash 🙂

acoustic cedar
#

Same lol

#

I’m at over 1 million now so that pleases me

outer badger
#

yea, im not running to long dist to get a single animal.. but i pick up most of my kills

acoustic cedar
#

Yeah exactly same

outer badger
#

im at almost 3.6mill.. and i had to start the game fresh like 1-2 years ago.. lost at leat 3 mill in cash and gear on that one.. i reinstalled windows, and my save was not saved on steam.. trust me, i was not happy.. now i backup regularly

#

i didnt lose my trophys for some reason.. the lodges was still as they were

abstract atlas
#

Maan im always outside when i get pinged 😅

#

im on Layton, having my route up on second monitor, so i dont see whats happening on disc ^^

#

just got a 267.50 on Layton.. happy about that ^^

regal cosmos
#

the 357 took a good 10 seconds before a WT drop 😅 definitely made me nervous

outer badger
#

#

So when it comes to the racks on GOs, is the chance of getting a specific rack completely random or are some racks more likely than others?

layton been on fire so far today.. 3 lvl3 diamonds.. 4-5 diamond potential lvl2's and a lot of max weight estimates that can make good respawns

pliant oak
#

yeah i had that yesterday started off dead then was amazing

#

not been on yet been videoing so will jump on soon for a few hrs

acoustic cedar
#

Yeah this 4th grind is getting as long as my 2nd was

#

Had 26 diamonds on my 2nd grind

#

Currently at 21 with 3 messed up small ones so in terms of being diamond size that’s 24

#

So I’m praying that it pops up soon

#

Started the 4th with 13850 total harvests, now at 17100+

#

Not bad for 6 ish days

#

I’m done when this ones done

#

And I mean it this time: I never want to see another whitetail after this lol
