August 23, 200817 yr First, I would like to comment on the option that allows you to "Attack" carnivorous chinchompas. Naturally, this engenders the issue of semantic blockage manifest in the fact that it is very easy to click on the carnivorous chinchompa, and thus attacking it as the default option, instead of clicking to set or pick up box traps. Anyone who has hunted carnivorous chinchompas is surely aware of this phenomenon. A hunter loses hundreds of GP, a chunk of hunting experience, and ultimately a bit of time as well every time this happens. After several hours on end of carnivorous chinchompa hunting, I believe it is only to be expected that players will start making their share of misclicks. I do not see why we should be penalized for Jagexs blatant shortsightedness, ignorance, hubris, and hamartia when it comes to designing hunting NPCs. Honestly, what point is there to actually attacking a carnivorous chinchompa? Oh boy, 4 exp! It almost makes me forget they nerfed Pest Control, the purest combat training form of all, so long ago! Thanks, Andrew Grower!1!! You know that most experienced Chinchompa hunters equip bows with no arrows. This means that you can't attack them...
August 24, 200817 yr You know that most experienced Chinchompa hunters equip bows with no arrows. This means that you can't attack them... Actually most experienced hunters take along cheap bolts and shoot the chins when they try to escape/move away from my traps so that they respawn close by.

I was going to suggest that. :cry: I use a hunter's crossbow with no bolts, to still look hunter-esque while I'm hunting. ~ W ~
