No sir, 10mm, 30per and a Q10 bow is how we kill them. All hunts are done solo. *shrugs* The shots seem to line up such that there's no point where it's in rage. Yet mind, higher Q bow might shift the damage such that it lands in the rage point.

Since bear hitboxes are so massive, you could theoretically spam-shoot if it enters rage (Assuming you survive your first hit..) and kill it before it kills you, though that's very dangerous.

I'd only do it with sufficient armor.

Animals have variable health based on their qualities.

Not just yet, I want to redo a lot of this guide as it has a bit outdated information, and I want to add new methods. As well as how to melee animals and which attacks they use.

Cant be varying that much as had Deer of all diff qualities and at like 194 dmg hasn't failed to one shot them so far. Though sometimes shooting for like 230 dmg so may ofc of been slightly lucky in that regard.

I've one-shot at 180 and had a couple flee at 210. It varies a nice chunk of health.

Variable, the 180 is usually from a 8ql bow with 18ql bone arrows, mm is always 1. MM does not impact damage.

210-230 is from a 15ql bow with 20ql bone arrows

Do bone and stone arrows have about the same damage? I'm asking if it's worth crafting for example q15 bone arrows instead of q10 stone arrows.
