Another Hunting/Combat sucks thread

Postby bojackson » Mon Feb 06, 2017 5:19 pm

So frustrating trying to hunt anything, the bleed doesn't even seem to be working, unless it only happens with swords/arrows which makes sense in a way, but still there is no way to track the animal as I'm trying to sling them and unarmed fight them. Also, most just run off with super speed after a few attacks. By the time I wait to un-agro it, the animal usually is long gone or despawns. Just bad, and not fun, either make them not run off so quickly (flee only when they are a very small hp away from dieing) or so fast like superman (so we can actually catch up to them w/o a horse), or both please. And don't say oh you just need a horse, cus I shouldn't have to spend 20 min running around grass bioms just to hunt 1 animal just to then need to find another horse, f that.

Currently the only way to really hunt is to use cheese tactics or horses which only allows for 1-2 kills and then repeat. Old hnh was way too easy to cheese stuff w ranged combat but the current mechanics are just not fun. I have like 90 UA and 50 ish combat stats, would be nice to actually be able to use them to hunt and have some fun but seems the only way is to bow/sling cheese stuff. Please look into this guys.
Ohhh that's how I make a sig, cool

it's enough to kill deers without them fleeing btw ... ( you outrun boar)
and your stats are way too low for anything else ...

(I think the system is shit , don't get me wrong :p)

Not to mention with the last 10-15 animals I've killed guess how many combat discoveries I've received? If you guessed Zero, congratulations you win! So much fun :(

I have half of your stats and in 3 days I could unlock enough combat moves to hunt efficiently.

100% melee, no cheesing.

I have similar stats and I can take down moosen and bears easily taking minimal damage.

yes with a boat or a horse. aka cheesing

edit : I guess with a horse it's not cheesing ... but OP complain how boring it is to find a horse ( and god invented taming )
he want to fight melee a moose or a bear on foot , it's just not possible with these stats.

Why can't we go back to the old combat system, what was so wrong with it?
