Hunting red chins with a bow+arrows

Featured Replies

I remember seeing some guide ages ago on how to hunt red chins, using a bow to "lure" some of the far away ones close to your traps.

 

Could someone link me to the guide, tell me if this method doesn't work anymore, or explain the method in detail here?

 

 

 

Thanks!

The strategy is to set up your traps around a Chinchompa spawn point.

 

Like so....

And if said chinchompa got away, kill it to make it spawn again.

 

 

 

I've never tried it, I've just hunted like a normal noob. :D

it also helps ALOT to smoke your traps, only time i don't is when the chins are coming really fast, and then when they calm down i go back and smoke the traps.

 

hunter camo fur stuff (forget what it's called) also helps alot.

I use that method late at night when the spots empty out, but during the day when it's bust I think ill use the other method.

 

 

 

And yes, I am ftw. Duh.

Ewww...

 

Do NOT smoke your traps.

 

 

 

The time spent smoking them isn't worth it in the long run.

That's what I figured.. and at my level, you really don't have much time for smoking the traps.

If you have under 80 Hunter, then this is the best way.
