I'm repeating R17 predator hunts for HBs. Shoot 3 eggs with a bow, shoot 2 animals with a gun, get killed by the 3rd. You get a bit over 100K for that, then when a gold egg appears finish the hunt and it totals around 387K. I had just 2 million hunter bucks left after buying and upgrading the regular R17 rifle and couldn't…
In the lower regions they're worth much less. Only round 1/10th of that in region 14. I've been trying R18, but nothing at all so far and only getting normal eggs in R17, but only in the croc hunt. None in any bear hunts so far. Ive been toying with dropping down to the lower regions for longer to try for predator hunts,…
Finished all 3 bounties now. Found it frustrating when they were hidden behind rocks and the limited hunter movement prevents him from shooting them! ETA: have found some eggs in contract hunts now. In R15 an egg is worth 31K and a golden egg is worth 189K.
Another thing not worth doing; saving the last trophy hunt for HB building. Shooting the last leopard in the head only gets you around 5K more than two contract hunts...
I've now finished the hunting series using the R17 bolt action in combination with the Rainbow's End shotgun and lots of hollow points. I'll do the trophy set when R19 comes out, as the R18 rifle is ugly and and I don't buy ugly guns. :D
I'm 15 hunts in and not had the OTO on the rifle yet, just the shotgun, which was easy to pass on at 349 golds. Struggling now, as I'm still using the R17 bolt action!
What was it? Nothing new as usual, just the same old reconstituted animals from other regions that have been given a lick of paint and a new name. Sigh...
