Ranged combat hunting sucks

[Ronin30]

what bothers me more then all of this is they keep full speed on water while you the lowly pleb are forced to slosh through the muck and mire.

Nerf Jesus Animals pls

animals should have stamina, different movement speeds and stamina drain rates on different terrain, and injuries should limit movement speed

Or learn how to hunt and use my trick

An amusing way of torturing animals like this is to allow them to lick their wounds after given time where they would stand still and heal a minor amount of damage, at which point you just start shooting again.

all hunting sucks. The whole system needs a rework

[Vigilance]

Add blood trails, make wounded animals run slower, and stop pretending that bears, boars, and badgers are such poosies

This is the best solution.

This is my preferred method. Then again, I am someone that really likes the URW hunting mechanics.

Make animals not run away at sprint speed so some people might stop using alts and other stuff to block animals so they dont run away.
Currently its impossible to hunt anything that runs away 2 fast. (Atleast mooses, foxes, badgers, deers etc.)
Only way is to onehit them which is quite difficult sometimes.

I would agree, it sucks the most with a sling for sure, in fact I find slings pointless.

Yeah sling seems to fill a non existent role, it only works as a weapon when you're abusing animal ai and has no place in pvp.
