Hunting AI animals in Ecos La Brea can be challenging, but mastering stealth is key. This guide provides essential tips for successful AI hunts.
Stealth is Paramount: Utilize the scent button to locate nearby AI animals, indicated by animal icons. A meter appears when crouching, showing how close you are to alarming the animal. Movement increases the meter; sprinting fills it instantly, running significantly impacts it, trotting less so, and walking fills it most slowly. Approach cautiously, especially when the meter is rising.
Wind Direction Matters: Downwind approaches spook animals faster; crosswind is moderate, while upwind offers the best chance of a stealthy approach.
Observe the Question Mark: A question mark occasionally appears above the animal icon. Avoid moving while it's visible to prevent alarming the prey.
Preparation for the Chase: The meter will likely fill before you reach the AI. Be ready to sprint; while AI animals are fast, sprinting allows you to keep pace.
Hunting Strategies: AI movement is unpredictable. Open fields with minimal obstacles improve your chances of a successful chase.
The Final Catch: Get extremely close to initiate the bite. Once captured, drop and consume your prey, repeating the hunt until satiated.
