How much marksmanship to make hunting not annoying

Post by RevScarecrow »

I know marksmanship doesn't up damage but increasing it will make me aim faster. I started playing near the end of the last world so I never got my marksmanship up very high. How much do I need to have to be able to attack a fox and kill it somewhere within a couple of minutes. I hate waiting for 10-15 minutes to get it half way up only to miss anyway.

This doesn't seem like its a hard number just a suggestion really. 17 marksmanship was still really annoying.

I think that's wayyy too much, I had around 50 marksmanship last around and it was fine there.

Once you've tasted the speed of ~100 marksmanship, ~50 seems slow. I'd say the wait starts to become somewhat reasonable around 50, though it still kinda sucks.

I find that 30 is fairly decent, if your using a sling. upping your MM to 100 would be good for bows though, in the making of them I mean once you've got good materials.
