Man I want to get a woodland caribou diamond but I just think it’s gonna be such a pain to grind with the night drinking time
Yeah, it’s a crap load of math lol
Glad im not alone on that
I had a initial spawn five but it was a total skunk
@spice void is the AR308 full name Zara-10 .308? In the modern rifle pack
Lol i can imagine good for you tho fr good luck on that
Heart breaker
Yessir
Ya no kidding I hope we get a arctic map one of these days
Thanks, I’m going into my junior year so gonna be doing mostly major specific classes instead of gen eds
It’s really one of the few areas the hunter hasn’t touched besides deserts
I’m excited
Along with most of Eastern Asia
Well atleast that should hopefully keep it interesting
And most of Africa
Thx
And a good portion of South America
Indeed
Musk ox, Daul Sheep, arctic fox, so much stuff to hunt there
Don’t think we’ll ever get seals though tbh. But polar bear would be great
@languid wedge you like our server tags?
Diamond lvl 4?
nvm it turned
def not
when it had its head down from behind it looked like it
back in bizness gadies and lentlemen
Any beavers yet?
no, i hit new game and set my grind up again
i played before new game, no beavers
not even a 3
Why new game though don’t you loose all your progress and stuff?
What bullets do you suggest?
yeah? gives me new beavers tho
and new trophies
but i keep my lodged trophies
Did you just get the game?
308 polymer
44 hard cast
Oh you keep those good thank god
yep, and dlcs
Sometimes the wood bison sound looks like predator roar. The map suffering without a new aggressive puma.
Anyone else stuck on the council tasks mission? Can't progress after the cutscene in the storm
Id croak too dont worry lol
Ok that was my last questions thx sorry for bothering
No worries happy to help
wide ass
wuts the thing where you can spot animals through scopes again?
this is gonna sound nuts. truly. but its called sight spotting
NO WAY
really?!
yes im dumb ty
The Amisk lodge has outdoor snow footfall sounds indoors
of courseeeee
been there tbh
Anyone know the new max score for Bighorn?
Community record is 212.66
Sick. I just harvested a 212.05
How far will animals generally roam around the map? I was riding at night to an outpost and a possible diamond elk ran across the road but I wasn’t able to get a good shot lined up, will that elk stay in the general area or will go literally anywhere
I’ve been checking the drinking zones in the surrounding area but haven’t seen it again yet
Will stay in that area
Be patient he’ll be back around might take a few resets
I want new bighorn spawns 😢😢😢
i got my beaver setup
Waiting for the level 10 albino
tbh, i'll just take a bronze rare at this point
Oh for sure
Levels money weapons dogs perks
levels, money, ingame weapons, and xp
dogs do?
gotcha
arent they dlc?
theyd prob go back to level one yeah?
everything except ur trophies basically
so your saying my dog, wet rag. i gotta find a new one?
You dont have then anymore
gotcha
Gotta purchase new dogs
darnit :(
First ones free though still
no one replaces wet rag :(
no :(
ew
too far
beaver grind continues, i go get rest
Coulda been crusty sock🤷🏻♂️🤣💀
i've been on here for 4 hours
Just dont hit it with a black light
I think I bought the wrong one was it the Zara or arzyna
Zarza is the ar
Zara 308 the Arzyna 300 is very good for bear, elk, moose, and bigger animals
Ok ok thx
blimey wolves
9 wolves all attacking me
i got them all without a scratch though with my 30 06
luckily the lake i was at didnt have any mule zones
I'm more worried how y'all got the boosts

What is the best time to hunt snow geese?
Wolves got me today just exploring. Lol one more hit I would have been dead.
Tism time!
The 1911 is self explanatory seeing usage in nearly every modern conflict
He must've powered down for the night
Any time, doesn't matter
BBR or Big Black (assault) Rifles are quite scary and should not be in the hands of civilians!
Clever girl is a reference to JP

The French revolutionized the crossbow often facing up against English longbowman, which proved to be not enough in the long run
😪😪
Bro this map is goated
They even used shields in siege warfare in combination with crossbows
Erm actually this map doesn't have any goats on it
They should remove all the species and just add more mallards
I got a, Albino Manitoban elk, a diamond Manitoban elk, a diamond white-tail, a diamond Wood bison and a diamond Wood duck.
I’m pretty sure it does
I got a moose
and a dusky grouse
Mountain goat...
Antelope
not a goat
hes trolling yall
a true goat at least
and technically right cause mountain goat arent goats
genetically at least
closer to giraffes and cows
Oh really?
Actually?😂
Yep
like ya mum!!
yup, just like pronghorn theyre an endling species, the last surviving member of their entire taxonomic family
That's really interesting
which imo makes them dope as hell
i love animals with misleading names
Yeah
Musk deer are the worst offender
Not even closely related to deer
Wtf
Yep
they rest of their relatives all went extinct with the megafaunal dieoff; pronghorn relatives were too stocky and slow and mtn goat relatives werent altitude adapted
so where pronghorn outran death, mountain goats outclimbed it
now theyre messing with you lmao
im closely related to deer, through my fathers side
polar bears are some of the beariest bears in the history of bear
Mustela Maritimus
can tell by looks
thank you!
Procavia capensis
Damnnn
Bebal this is why we threatened to ban you
??
yall voted for sky
ELEPHAN'T
Bears are kinda just really large weasels if you think about it
thought it was the other way round lmao
Especially polar bears
I don't think weasels are even close to really large bears
They’re like massive slinky’s
Capybaras are large guniea pigs
you damn smartass lmao
GUINEA BIG
do they call you that
Peak
Just as tasty🤤
we know
Horses taste better imo
because my friends are convinced im a robot cause of how well I do at uni lmfao
Aren't zebras like really good eating
sweet and gamey at the same time
haunches are the tenderest followed by shoulder then flank then neck
Bobcats and coot are some of the worst meats I've eaten
excluding the backstrap and tenderloin ofc
odd ive heard bobcat taste pretty good
come over to my house, eat some of my coot
No.
You'll just drug me and take my kidney
No i won't
The vegan I strap down and force to watch me eat grade a American Throughbred ribeye
You ain't worth too much
As I also consume bacon wrapped gator as a side dish
it has 6 backstraps
superior animal
Yeah, I hear coot can be really iffy
tail is 4 backstraps
lowkey wanna try gator
Just imagine fishy chicken
Chish
best of both worlds 🙏
or Ficken
Ficken
If you cover it in Jack Daniel’s Honey BBQ Sauce there’s no possible way for it to be bad.
I wonder how beavers taste
It’s fishy
I've only seen people use them as knife sharpeners
is there a list of rare skins for the new animals yet?
real
Meat tastes similar to whitetail. The tail tastes like fish though
hm i only have 21 mule deer zones after checking every lake twice
thats just checking the lakes labled on the pro xck map
i wonder if theres any discrepancies on the map at all with some lakes not highlighted
:(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((
Gator?
I can see that
They probably are one of those animals that just. Provide soo much meat for their size
I say probably because i really dont know
the tail is 4 full backstraps lmao
even a little 5 footer is foot for like 9 people
and thats assuming they have the appetites of Norse warriors
a 12 footer is like 2/3rds of a freezer of prime game meat lmao
Aaahhh right thank you!! 😃
and when i say freezer I mean big chest freezer
Whats the best game meat in your opinion
Ive only ever had elk two times in my life and it was the best damn thing ive eaten
what the dawg doin
I love the new wolf models i just wish they had that tawny nose blaze wolves so commonly have
theres literally a broken wolf, mulie and sheep herd all here
WOTH has this
Only thing I wished with the new wolves is that we could shoot them to extinction😔
Trashy edit, you probably cant see it at all, but i tried to give it the tawny nose blaze
Maybe a slightly better ver??
Yesss this makes them even better. Thought something small was off and think thats it. Needed more tawny on them
Its such a common trait for them
You DO sometimes get wolves where its excluded but those are few and far between
(Obviously black wolves are exempt from this rule)
But like cmooooon broo
Bro is just chillin
Yuuup especially if they were real wolf fans like me and based them off of C. l. irremotus which are a lot lighter than most other grey wolf subpecies. In a perfect world we'd get fur types based of subspecies it would be so funnnnn
iirc irremotus isnt a valid subspecies anymore 🥀
(Which is so upsetting bc i love irremotus)
Theyre all listed as occidentalis these days tmk
They def get interchanged with occidentalis a lot but i dont think they ever officially invalidated the subspecies as a whole. Government just doesn't care lol
And are there really fur varieties that are subspecies specific??
I thought it was only on species level, ex. Canis lupus vs Canis rufus
I thought that wolves were just. That variable it didnt matter
With one exception for yellowstone wolves having a lot of variation within melanistic phenotypes
Thats it
Oh wait... mexican wolves 🤦♂️
Im dumb lol
It varies depending on where the subspecies lives and how often melanism shows up. My fave subspecies ligoni have a large darker population and obvi up north north they're very light
Coastal wolves like ligoni and they uhhhh other one i cant remember the name of are darker and smaller and are a bit different genetically than other woofers
I like da doggies
Ough coastal wolves are so pretty
They eat all the beavers much like I have been with this map
There so cool
And yea i actually do recall some differences with coastal wolves
...sounds like something a coastal wauwau would admit to...
iirc they get like, colored limbs a lot more frequently than their inland counterparts
Like reddish legs
Cool ass trait
Hold on let me get the photo for this
I have some nerdful pdfs somewhere about coastal wolf genetics
But maybe not anymore actually since i have a new phone
Look at this fella and his red boots
And some coastals get cool swiggly cape patterns
Coastals just get a more rustic? Appearance than their inland counterparts
Love her teardrop cheeks
And i just think thats beautiful. You rock, coastal wolves
They kinda remind me of iberian wolves in that way as well
Yess
We only get occidentalis here hoping they migrate west of the cascades more I need to see them
These guys are high up there with irremotus and occidentalid for my favorites
We got irremotus and occidentalis back at my homeland, but i havent back there in years
My life goal is to see alexanders in the wild
Where im at we only got latrans
And VERY rarely do we get lycaon
But waaaay up north
Gods yes
Alexanders wolves are so pretty
Im just partial to the wolves in the pacific northwest, rockies, yellowstone and surrounding areas
I grew up with coyotes in the backyard love them but theyre kinda annoying
I dont think so personally!
But thats just because i keep howling for them and ive never gotten a response lmao
They are at 5am
LOL
They keep themselves scarce heee
Im deaf so this is literally not an issue for me
Well my parents and neighbors kept feeding them cats so they loved our area
LIKE DAMN JUST TALK TO ME ALREADY
ITS BEEN 5 YEARS OR SO
NO RESPONSE
🥀🥀
Maybe u smelled bad 💔
Id have better luck with yellowstone wolves than yotes at this rate lmfao
Needed to rub some fish on ya
SHUT UP hes pretty enough
NO
YUH
HE MUST BE BEAUTIFULLER...
CANT BE MORE PERFECT
Woaaaa
This guy looks so cool
iirc hes an albus wolf
Not albus
Russian wolf
Wait
Now im just confusing myself nvm
Wolves are just so peak man
They are honestly a bit overrated but like. I dont care. They're overrated for a reason. They are so peak
awoo
did wolves even get their new furs this update?
i know they got their remodel and the redone furs but they only got 1 new?
those coastal wolves look like they had a lot of contact with dogs
Its the cheek markings isnt it?
something about the face, structure. and saturation of coat color
kinda looks like they have a little coyote in there too
iberian wolves are similarly rustic in colors
Just got a piebald wood bison didn't even know that they could have rare furs
Nice
nice, they can also be leucistic, albino, and melanistic
so keep an eye out for overly light and dark bison lol
Thanks
- added leucistic wood duck

Nevermind
They are very pretty
I think the nailed the style of Alberta box stands this was a stand my late father built back in his guiding days for my great uncle everything from the sliding and folding windows so that very homemade design I think they did amazing and pretty nostalgic basically lived in these things as a kid
Is there a bug with the Albertan Apex quest (where you need gold of each animal)? Mine is showing as completed even though I only got 5 of them harvested and new harvests arent counting
yeah its bugged
it just auto completes for most people
bruh so many of my mule zones are just like level 2s and 3s with max 220 estimates
i have 0 5s and barely any 4s unless theyre just constantly no shows
bruh im getting no shows on zones i already have 30 minutes before the zone ends
beavers, beavers, beavers.
ive done up a map of all my zones atp green is outer zones, yellow is areas i want to be main zone and blue just means big bucks that need to be shot down and pink just means all female and ill probabaly just add like orange if its shot down to level 2 males and somehow ive only got 20 zones total
all the zones not marked with a male or female still need to have their herds checked cos i forgot what the herds were or they were no shows
youre telling me this rest zone doesnt drink at the lake right next to it
no wonder everyone is late to their zones theyre like 1.5km away from the nearest lake
Is a male eclipse pintail rare? Just harvested my first one
no
I need help. I killed all the beavers at 2 of the 4 places they can be, and now they are not spawning again... I've changed the time, restarted the game, and waited for a few hours afk in game. But nothing is bringing them back
i dont beavleav you
Anyone know where Canadian geese are at?
Canadian
what map
Alberta
I saw them at the top right area of the map
Thanks bubba
23 mule deer zones and not 1 level 5 or even dime potential 🥀
real
i got 1 dilute female and 1 melansitic female and thats it
and a lot of 4s and golds
i managed to go 500 fallow kills and only ever saw like 3 level 5s (all trolled) but managed to get a max weight SR mela fallow and an irish elk g1 yet i currently have 0 normal diamond fallows
actually i also have 2 stacked dime potential and 1 stacked level 5 too that i havent shot yet
actually i might have a diamond now
355 max est 288 min est
Do you have pic of silver dilute or erythristic golden wood duck?
how does hard management work in this game ? you kill a biggest scoring male in the herd and harvest it then hope bigger male spawns in same herd ? or just kill it and dont harvest just restart?
it hit 294
Well you try to find areas that are good for hunting and find every single zone of that animal on the map then you shoot them down everywhere where you don't want to hunt them, to level 5/4, 3 or 1 depending on species, just as small as possible this will cause the game to spawn more big animals
If you drive this to the extreme you can get diamonds about every 10 kills
Takes a lot of patience tho
Some people say that the diamond likelyhood is linked to great one spawns and thus more diamonds means quicker g1s, take this with a grain of salt
It definitely means better ST odds and it can make grinding quicker as it allows you to only hunt your best zones, this isn't always neccesarryly needed tho
alright. i'll go on a zone. set up a tent and shoot every small animal of exact species i want from a tripod. then travel to another
No you want to shoot the big animals
So there's a lack of big animals so more big animals spawn
And you want those zones where you shoot the big animals to be the zones that you don't want to grind
And the good zones you keep the big animals
You can also keep Max levels on the map to make it easier to get small animals to spawn
However HM can take a LOT of patience
alright. so theres a whitetail zone. i see few level 2s and only one looks bigger than the others ? i shoot big one and harvest yes ?
Kinda yeah
How many diamonds to you have, what level are you?
Proper herd management can be very hard
think i had one or two.
im a rf4 player 😄 i'm used to difficult things
just need to understand basics
Yeah idk if you should already grind for great ones
It's a very endgame mechanic and takes sometimes 100s of hours like in my case
i managed to find a caribou that was a 50-130 estimate and looked smaller then the females
hes giving twink energy
you played classic ?
Btw this isn't #🦡︴cotw-scotland I'd recommend you ask in #🦌︴great-ones
💅
lets go in vc if you have time.
or ask the fine folk who make grinding their prio over in the great ones chat linked above
What species and map do you wanna grind then just put for example "whitetail grind herd management Layton lakes" and click on a video preferably by scarecrow
im not all serious about it. just wanted to know the idea of it. thanks for an explanation.
That's nice, I think you get it now
Dusky grouse max weight track is 1-2 kg righr?
Am I the only one who doesn't think they look as true to live, as the other waterfowl? I kinda prefer pintail
they are mildly taxidermy looking
but wood duck look weird irl so eh
- necks too long
- helmet is placed weirdly, too short along the back of the head
those are the main two things I disagree with, with this model
Yay first trophy of the new map
Ah damn bro
I almost messed him up aswell, shot pretty far back
Yeah I’m playing with no right trigger rn so my keybinds are different and I accidentally pressed shoot when I didn’t mean to 🤦♂️
how does herdmanagement with geese work?
what should i shoot to spawn in diamonds?
Ye
It doesn't really because geese respawn as a whole flock
Just shoot a bunch of geese
You don't need herd management for a single diamond
i get triggered alot yeah
It’s not even funny atp dime bighorn piebald moose and dime whitetail less than 25 mins apart
i hate you
he is so wonky i love him
i have a tents at 15 outposts on the new map so if you need the outpost on the new map ping me (PC)
i need nothing in return just doing a favor
W manz
Albino Pintail Drake
I’m traveling up north RN, and I’m excited to get back and play this new map
looks cool
Im thinking about setting up a bison grind for a sr
cos there is 16 lakes they can drink at
and i can just hm the river
Man I need this map to be uploaded to the companion app asap
Ew doesnt Update it as its not an official app, its made by some company
Tragedy of the highest order
How many drink zones for mule deer have y'all found?
What can you do with the app?
It gives all details on every animal on all maps
gives you basically all rarities of furs and the dime requirements and need zone times
27 (technically 28 becase of a solo i destroyed) aparently there should be up to 30ish
there is an companion app?
Ok I appreciate that
Cotw companion app in app store
Are beavers throughout the stream or just at the lakes
so on the river you will see 4 areas where it looks like lots of little streams, theyre there
Thanks
the current state of my hming map so i dont have to use my brain
i need to work out which of my zones had solos cos i had a couple that i didnt mark
the only colours that indicate a zone is either green or yellow the rest of just additional descriptors or whats at the zone
Are grey pintails rare?
theyre the most common fur for males
Thank you
Is anyone else kind of butt hurt That Both “Mountain Lions and Grizzly Bears” didn’t make it to the cut on the roster yet both are constantly mentioned throughout the story missions?!
yes
the devs probably just ran out of time with all the reworked furs and new animals and new animations and beaver mechanics and 6x6 g1 varients or felt like they already had too many species on the map considering its like the tied largest roster and is only comparable to a waterfowl map (rev)
When do elks & mule drink?
elks is 4-8, mule is 15-18
Thanks King
What's a good load out for alberta map?
one that covers all the classes of animals youll be shooting
ant 1 got mule deer locations
Yeah I had a feeling they were planned for this Reserve but due to Time Constraints they couldn’t do it in time….Well there’s always the Chance for Backfills hopefully they might Surprise us
mfw random solo female
Is 30 points above diamond big for Manitoban elk
I got a diamond elk last night on this map
Anyone have a screenshot of the recommended tent placement for mule deer?
Mine was well above the diamond score
How many points above was it
Made me wonder how close it was to a great
At least 15
I was wonderfully equipped for the release of this map and already had 8 tent to put down and all I've been doing is getting the houses
Still need to buy it myself so I'm playing multi player for now
I've only got a few hours on it
I haven't really began hunting it yet so when I found the D I was like holy moly Batman
depends on your zones
and how conservative you wanna be with tents
I count fifteen elks at this lake and ALL OF THEM are female
avg elk herd
also for some reason after i shot down a zone that had 1 female and 1 male mule deer the zone has stayed but they just havent returned ever
I chose the 12-14 mallard
Mule deer 🔥
I meant
What's the midsummer venison harvest
If you get that many you'll get money or something from it usually
its a community challenge where everyone contributes to a cumulative goal for your system to get 3 cosmetic skins
also i wonder wtf is wrong with my mule deer i have like 28 zones for them and have seen literally not a single level 5 ever and ive had 1 diamond potential level 4 that was a gold
and ive cycled kills a couple times with the higher scorers and got nothing good
i swear every time im ever doing a grind i just cant get diamonds theyre just hiding somewhere
I don't grind anymore I don't have time
If I find them I find them
Wheres the best bison spot?
shadow demon
bruh i had a 10 mule deer herd get spooked by a wolf and i see the evidence of the wolf prints next to the zone
Is there a cabin somewhere in the northermost middle of hte map ?
Yea you’re right next to it 💀
I already registered the one south-west of me. I mean if there is another in the red circle area.
bruh i had a shot that was inline to be a vital shot hit it the mule deers fat ear and not count
No
There’s something, could be a hunting stand or poi
Omg I've never seen that dilute wood duck i love ittttt
No worries. I fast traveled to another cabin and just screenshot the information board map 😛 Now I can find them all easier.
i essentially have every cabin/lookout exept these (ignore the top right corner)
Anyone know when dusky grouse I found a diamond but since I’m a shitter I missed it
Are the caribou super skittish or just me? :p
welp ive confirmed i only have 28 zones on my map right now and ive checked them all and none have a single level 5 or diamond
Why do the snow geese keep honking when they're dead lol
is there a way that other animal diamonds can effect the spawn rate of diamonds for other species
like can tons of diamond beavers be blocking spawns for my mule deer or smth
cos ive done some laps already killing some in every herd and even the respawns have sucked with 0 5s and no diamond potentials
im grasping at straws here cos i just want something
also one of my zones has just given up showing up but it didnt even have anything good in it anyways
a (big) mistake was made.....
💔
Normally when I see a messed up pronghorn it’s because someone used the wrong weapon. Rip
He moved when i took the shot, ended up hitting above the lungs. Couldnt take a 2nd shot due trees
Should have taken a better angle of approach
Meow
Never been this lucky
Wow
anyone able to provide some input? im grinding on askiy for muley, i have access to all my lakes and ive picked 9 zones to be my mains. in 2 of my main zones i have 3 probable diamonds im stacking, and the other 7 mains i have 3/4's which is fine. i thought i shot down 10 other entire lakes and im coming back just out of curiosity and 3/4's are respawning. im 500 ish kills in to this grind. my understanding of herd management is you are able to get all of your exterior zones shot down to low weight 2's and you can grind your mains after that but im lost now that random 3/4's are spawning in the herds of what i thought to be shot down exterior zones. do i just not understand herd management and am shooting the wrong bucks in my rotations or is this just part of the process and im gonna have to shoot until it settles?
clam
I have yet to actually see a beaver, anyone else?
106 min lvl 4 prong
on the river, where are the little streams are, there should be 4 of them areas
Okay awesome thanks!
This is the difference between mature really well managed and getting it to the point of being well managed. Difference between things falling apart requiring you to move or shoot down respawns and just checking when a rotation gets interrupted by something missing.
One of the story missions requires standing on a beaver dam. At that point you only need the right time of day.
is 21 mule deer zones good enough to start the grind?
I cant find a good number anywhere
I have 1 diamond which was a wood bison
and I've gotten trolled by elk 4 times
i got a diamond whitetail while hunting beavers yesterday
MOOSE X2
Wood bison
Manitoban elk X2
Pronghorn
My initial spawn diamonds (so far)
man it's literally been so many months since I've gotten a diamond moose
I have 1 diamond moose ever I never got them
Flinter just found a mule deer great one
i grind meese sooo😜
what combo
a st and g1 in an hr?
better not be heart rack with milky or petal
Milky Way fur I think it is?
is it normal to get one that fast??
oh no
Hacks
Dusky
well right now it's a bit of survivorship bias because the only people getting g1s rn are the ones getting it quickly since it's only been 4 days and there's alot of unaccounted for people who just arnt getting it and will take forever
Flinter got the dusky typical
Anyone else who can't find the stardance location to finish the sight seeing side mission?
Holy crap
Anybody have a side profile of a diamond Manitoban elk
What the hack 😍 😲
Yes i have it
Can you show it? I have a lvl 5 on my map but idk what to expect
I have more on the Computer at home.
What is that shnoz
Whats wrong is your probably shooting solos that apart of herds from what we've found so far askiy mule deer solos can bounce across the entire map lakes I've not touched in hours having fives suddenly pop into them.
Your only real option is shooting them until they bounce too exteriors as small deer It should eventually happen but god, Its tedious and really screws your grinds when you think your initial zones have 5+ bucks, but 500+ kills in there suddenly one.
Yeah, that happens with any herd grind, really. Likely what’s happening. It’s just solos that were hiding in herds and when you shot them out of the herds (probably in your mains) they respawned there. You will have to keep checking your exteriors for bouncers regularly until everything is properly HM’d. Just part of the process
I have a few zones that must of been a doe, buck, and 2-4 solos that bounced too complete other side of the map into managed zones.
Tedious but if all exteriours are two Its slightly easier to notice.
There seems to be a lot of solo mulies on this map, more than normal
Saw someone say they’d scoured their whole map and only had a few actual herd zones, the rest were male solos and exclusively lady herds
Like over half zones were solo. Wild
When I’m decoying ducks does it really matter about the pressured
They will still come in right?
Elk trolled
Yeah waterfowl dont care about hunting pressure
Ok
When is the hot fix for the bugs
What bugs
Hey guys
Is it bad every time I stand up I feel like ima pass out?
Nvm I feel better now
All of them
Getcha some iron and/or salt
Lol
If I had to guess, coming in the next week or so
Fancy seeing you here
Well hi 👋 💖 lol
A beautiful great one is what it is
Does anyone know if theres a link for the rares of Wood Bison or what they are?
What is max weight for wood bison
1350kg
i just found a crazy lookin one two toned
yo my second wood bison was max weight :D
i didnt even know til' someone pointed it out
Whats the rares for Wood Bison?
pie, albino, mela, and leu i believe
piebald, dark brown, leusictic, melanistic, albino
dark browns rare?
ginger split isn't rare
oh ok same as the others ty
It finally happened
yes
oh dang
it's not rare
ok thanks...It does look really cool
Ginger split just sounds like a rare
uhhhhhh
that hell yea moment
The goat hunting is fun af
Sure there are maybe the next respawns 🙂
Just reset again 🙂
You'll get one eventually 🙂
im hming them rn
well
not at the moment
My HM is going very swell half my zones are mostly 1s and 2s
And im not even fully set up
niceeee, i got 2 threes at a zone and a 4 at another
so i gotta take care of those
The harder you work for bober the better it will feel when you get one
Bobers work in mysterious ways
i hate how water is bullet proof tho
i had a 4 with diamond est
and i botched him cuz i got annoyed
dawg showing the ram whos boss
yeah, but i wanna use tripods so i dont cause much hunting pressure
True. I am able to set up right on the water so i can shoot through their backs
i'll fix my setup later .-. just taking a break from cotw
For sure
Rare?
nope
I hate caribou 😂 😢
i found a level 5 bou on my map, i left him bc he's guaranteed a troll
Is there like a sheet or chart that says what fur's there are?
This was too
go to pinned messages, scroll down a little
and you'll find a list by butcherbirds
There is alot of wolves on this map literally every 2nd herd I see ends up running away because of wolves
yep
Yuppp
I FOUND HIM
Everytime I try to go spot the big caribou lake i see wolves chasing
I FOUND MY LVL 5 ELK
Oooo
HE GOES UP TO 518 SCORE!!
Put a bullet in him!
Whats minimum estimate
Godspeed getting him
I HAVE HIS ZONE
Haven't heard of them trolling much too
i seen this guy get trolled by elk 4 times
Bow of course
Oh. Well erm
so its a love hate relationship
Oh hell
Theres like 4 other elk with him
LMAOO
Im fried
Ok i'll get him with the bow
So recurve then 🙂
Get in niiiice and close
Dare I say go punch him out
i think i killed a dark brown wood bison but didnt taxy it
I havent even seen one be posted i think too many people assume theyre common
I did too
Im usinf the compoind bow
first diamond of the new map, found this elk finally
Im trailing a diamond one too rn!!
i want a diamond mani so bad 🤤
eyyy
thats a diamond
No its 457
Idk where to look for animals at night
I think it'll make it >:)
Like 20-5
Caribou drink 20 to 0 wolves drink 0 to 3
I had JUST discovered it
Where to look for wolves
Everywhere
i think manny's coming
Even at the starter outpost?
Amisk Lodge?
Yup I had a pack there
Damn
Anybody a screenshot of the midsummer rewards of the current event for me? Can't that event menue due to bugs.
Got my diamond at the bigger lake north of starting lake
Yup. Also need to go at like 1:30
They could also have a zone too close to outpost and you never see them bc they spook
Dilute rare?
Yes
Yes
Thanks
Dilute always rare
I can hear them howling I just don’t know where they are
What time are you hunting them
Wolf howls are ambient and actually isnt indicative of their location other than "oh yea theyre a species thats on the map"
Might need to main menu and come back if they're not in zones
Oh really I was told it meant they were within like 500m
I was told theyre just ambient
0:00-3:00
Yuhh change time to 1:30 main menu and then look
They should all be in their zones by then
Niiice
should see gators
They’re on Mississippi
Ik
Lost them. They saw me and ran away.
After i get this elk im going pintail hunting fod this diamond potential lvl 2
THESE ELK MAKE ME MAD
STOP FLEEING
I'll get them later. Pintail time
oh really
Dude why are the wolves fleeing even tho I’m not near them
Massive bug this update, I swear
Everything has that issue
With some things it makes sense that wolves would spook but other times it’s literally nothing, like in your case there
It’s been around for a while now
Really bad on the new map lol
are there mule deer drink zones along the rivers
I was just bitching about this last night !!
It’s especially bad on the new map, I’m talking afk, full scent cover, wind in my favor, on the opposite side of a mountain and they’re fleeing 💀
Utterly ridiculous lol
“the devs are working on the bugs right” like why the hell wouldn’t they be Lukas
I’ve only hit 4-5 wolf vitals bc I have to shoot from 3-350yards out 😭
Yes. Check out a hotspot map for them. Will tell you everywhere they can drink
Are you talking to yourself…? Lol
Yes
Cuz it was such a terrible question to ask
Ofc
Is that for certain people I feel like they dont flee that much for me
Yeah it’s all on an individual basis
Before the release I had no issues at all, not even on Yukon
I’m seeing folks that don’t have any issues with respawns and spooking, and others like myself who are having issues with everything spooking/not showing up where they’re supposed to
I did have stuck animals every now and then but never the endless “fleeing” cycle
I’ve been a chew toy multiple times and I’ve only been on the map actively hunting once
Yeah. The new map was fine the first time I opened it, too… for a couple hours… now it just doesn’t want to spawn much of anything
I also sometimes log in and my weapons aren’t equipped, and my dog is in the kennel inactive, but that stopped
I’m sure they’re working on it
But I swear
Every time a new map is released
I killed most of animals in the first ten minutes they were going crazy 🤣
There’s always new issues
I can’t find anything good in this new map man
Lmao
Oh I’m certain of it, and the more people that actually send tickets in the faster/better it’ll be
This is an issue for every new map I stg
Highly recommend all y’all send in tickets even (and especially if) if you’re the type to say “oh support tickets don’t matter” because they do especially with new updates.
Typical of new updates for most games
Yeah
Unfortunately ya just gotta roll with it and help the devs/community out by reporting everything
Hopefully the issues will get fixed when the next patch rolls out
The devs have said that they’re working on most of the issues
And I don’t doubt it
Next patch is in like
There’s a long list to work on
1-3 weeks…?
Best of luck to you!
If there’s one issue that I find the most hilarious it’s the animals just going into the water like nothing
Lmao
Yeah trying to knock the diamond caribou out the way first to get the hard part done 😂
And boy is it testing my patience
Rares for snow geese
On the upside I LOVE the new model for gray wolves I hope Iberian comes next
@solemn comet
15 to 18 still I believe
bro im too good this guy was runnin fast away from me and i nailed its heart in 1 shot without havin to use my others
yo you guys think i should get this map
yes
k
Does anyone have a photo of their map who are farming mule deer? Want to see what are common tent spots so I can look for zones. I'm not new to the game, I've just never hunted by farming, just played by playing or MP
Gyatt damn it took me only 339 Kills now whish me luck on the Fox
At what time do bighorn sheep drink on this map?
12 to 16 iirc
thxx
I can't fast travel... even when I restart my game..
Have you tried fast traveling
Do u shoot solos? Or not. Cant remember
idont think so
did you accidentally change a setting
Restart cobsole/pc
Guys is brown the only new wolf fur type
I was thinking we would be getting like 2 or 3 new furs
I keep hunting wolves trying to find out but unless theres a rare skin I havent seen anything else
I struggled with dusky grouse but now I average around 30/hour by hunting clearings in lowland boreal forest between 6-11
Damn I just had a hard crash that forced a backup save too.
The game is being buggy for me today
the first lake I checked for the bighorn
Loud
It doesn't make you invisible, silent, and it is questionable what level of smell it removes. At that with very sensitive to smell creatures.
False
Something is making them flee. Sometimes it's beyond frustrating and others you can walk right up without much trouble.
Other animals or just something tied into the large topic of RNG and intelligent game design that offers variation in routine.
No wolves nearby
Everyone has this happen. Sometimes you just cannot win and win and win. Accept it and appreciate it or not.
My exceptionally poor harvest rate of Pheasants today was a good example.
Ah I'll ask here
Could somebody share a pic of the new map and world map please?
4K map is pinned above. Don't have a screenshot of map selection screen - will look.
Dose any1 have a duck or geese grind i can join in on im new so if not thats ok
Can anyone give some locations to find some wood duck
I'm trynna set up a diamond grind
Bottom right. Big wedge shaped lake far right of there has been mentioned as a good location
Thanks!
It does remove all smell! I’ve tested this extensively and seen it used, if an animal spooks when you’re using scent eliminator it is 100% always because something else spooked them
Whether that’s another animal or the hunters visibility/noise level
I swear by scent eliminator. Taken so many shots that would have been impossible without
It’s only necessary if you’re super up close though, or wind is blowing in their direction and you’re under ~200yds
I always use it regardless of distance
I kind of wish the clothing we choose can give us more camo
Same here, it’s always on lol it’s incredibly useful. I wander too much too, so wherever I go I know I’m covered
alberta is paying out finally
Just got a diamond muley baby
Gorgeous wolf!! They really did an awesome job with the rework!
Grind is awesome.
eclipse pintail got me so excited for a minute thought it was leucistic :c
Probably not the only person
are female beavers more likely for diamond than male cause ive seen higher females than males
Yea.
ah thanks
No worries,
is a molting dusky grouse rare
Pretty sure females only make diamond
gold
Its a common
20% according to wiki
thank you
Man beavers are so easy to hunt, just shoot one, wait a few seconds, repeat
Im starting a mule deer grind and i have no zones where most youtubers have is it gonna mess it up
Nah, your map is different than theirs. Won't always match one-to-one.
you can even shoot them underwater
Yo
Gotta find them first
I’m chasing down a piebald level 4 moose
