Tips & Strategy(5)

  • โ—This class can both be a team-based class, aswell as a solo class.
  • โ—‹The "Slightly higher pelt drop-rate" is considered useful as it increases the chance of pelt drops, allowing to complete the Pelt Trader's quests faster.
  • โ—‹The Level 3 perk, being that the Pelt Trader will offer an extra wolf pelt trade, allowing for the player to obtain a Good Sack, Good Axe and Spear (The Good Sack from the Bunny Foot trade, and the Good Axe and Spear from the Wolf Pelt Trades)
  • โ—This class has great synergy with the Big Game Hunter class.
  • โ—For the leveling up requirements, beside farming wolves and Alpha wolves in daytime, farming can also be continued during nighttime by standing on a tree branch or similar camping spot and shooting down on the nighttime's wolves spawn.

Hunter โ€” In-Depth Analysis

The Hunter is one of the most affordable classes at just 40 Diamonds, and it equips you with 2 Bear Traps to start โ€” letting you lock down wolves and other prey before you even raise a weapon. Its whole identity revolves around squeezing maximum value out of the forest's wildlife, both as a food source and as trade fodder.

The perk chain layers two payoffs. Level 1 grants an increased meat droprate, immediately improving your camp's food security from every kill. Level 2 adds a slightly higher pelt droprate, which is quietly important because pelts feed the Pelt Trader's quests faster. Level 3 is the real prize: the Pelt Trader offers an extra wolf pelt trade, opening the path to gear like a Good Sack, Good Axe, and Spear through the bunny-foot and wolf-pelt deals.

Pick the Hunter if you want a flexible class that works solo or on a team, and you enjoy active wildlife farming. It pairs especially well with the Big Game Hunter for synergy. A neat tip: keep leveling at night by perching on a tree branch or camping spot and shooting down the nighttime wolf spawns, so your progress never stalls when the sun goes down.
