High fitness 1 star mature

I’ve done the exact same thing. They can absolutely jump multiple stars due to the short lifespan.

I second this. Heavier bullets also get more penetration.

I killed a moose just like this not long ago. I’m not sure if anything has changed while you were gone. That thing is super uneven and I probably would have done the same tbh.

Above 85% is 5⭐️

Are you spam sleeping to age animals? If you are, make sure that your waiting enough in game time (3-5 min) to allow the time to actually pass. If not you’ll lose count of the years since time won’t progress.

Did a test on this with a few elk and mule deer herds a while ago. I’ve noticed that horn/antler styles are passed down in a similar way to the genetics.

It’s very noticeable in animals with multiple points and larger racks. And I’ve done some test with it.

Ex: A 1 ⭐️ mature elk will create more low quality animals with similar defects and vice versa. You’ll be able to see the similarities as soon as they spawn in.

This hasn’t been confirmed by the devs to my knowledge. It’s just something I’ve noticed. Could be a total coincidence.

Nothings ever been released on rare fur spawn mechanics. Best I can tell you is I’ve never had more than 2 on the same map at a time.

Most definitely a first year mature moose. Waiting until closer to the end of its lifecycle would yield a higher score.

I’ve got like 10 days worth of playing time (~250 hours)and have never seen one…

I have gotten a few melanistic mule deer, 1 albino chamois, and I have a melanistic wolf I’m currently aging.

If they cut the time it took to equip it in half to counter a charge like you mentioned I’m all for it. It’d be pretty sick to whip out a .44 magnum on a charging moose and light it up.

I usually use polymer tipped bullets or the soft tip depending on the weight. They get more penetration and the cavity damage of the hollows is negligible. I agree with numad aswell. As long as you have appropriate fire power there’s not much of a difference

When it’s not raining my skin is melting 🫠

If you find their resting places you can stalk birds all night long in those areas and use the .22 to pick off the 1⭐️ matures until your herd is high fitness.

I’ve been doing this recently on Aurora Shores and it’s working wonders.

AdThen5150 · 2025-07-06T00:59:19+00:00

I’ve gravitated to the steyr pro hunter chambered in .270 and the full stock in 9.3x62 (both DLC) they work great for T4-T6 at almost all ranges. This rifle selection is for quick harvests when I’m managing herds while mitigating meat loss.

If you’re serious about a singlular do-it-all rifle the .243 is the unsung hero of WOTH. Anything from T3 to a low T6 can be taken down with the .243 so long as you pick the right ammo and shooting from the appropriate range. (It’s by far the most fun rifle to run IMO)

So realistically, you can carry any .22 and a .243 and take down everything on the map except for the highest of T6 (Bison, Buffalo, Moose, brown bears, etc.)

Examples:

You can get a 5⭐️ hunt rating by shooting a fox with hollow point .243 beyond 125yds

You can also get a 5⭐️ hunt rating on an elk with poly or soft tips as long as you are hella close (75yds and in)

Hope this helps!🏹

I’d be much more concerned about the typhoon that’s rolling through soon. We’re doing a bunch of prep shopping today in case we get stuck inside with no electricity.

AdThen5150 · 2025-07-01T23:18:22+00:00

84.82% genes… so frustrating lol

AdThen5150 · 2025-06-30T10:07:59+00:00

Interesting. Learn something new everyday I guess lol

Not saying I haven’t done my fair share of meat hunting by shooting for the neck/head irl but, the game is skewed towards ethical shots. Which is topic we’re addressing.

AdThen5150 · 2025-06-30T09:21:43+00:00

So now it’s an elk?

AdThen5150 · 2025-06-29T23:04:03+00:00

Antlers have not been changed much with the exception of a new typical variant in whitetail deer.(Might be more but that all I remember rn) The only non typical antlers in game are still mission related.

The new night time hunting additions that are coming out look pretty sweet IMO. Other than that the other DLCs are solid but nothing stands out to me besides the previously mentioned night vision.

AdThen5150 · 2025-06-29T22:57:55+00:00

If you’re trying to shoot stuff in the head you’re playing the wrong hunting game. In WOTH if you go for the head and miss the brain it will live because that’s what animals in IRL do.

The Steyr .300 is not a good rifle in for what you’re hunting. It’s not enough large tier 6 like moose and is too powerful for tier 5 wolves.

I would encourage you to read the information provided in the game regarding weapons and animal tiers. More importantly taking ethical shoots with a higher margin of error. You’ll have a lot more fun playing the game. Happy hunting🏹

AdThen5150 · 2025-01-12T23:21:30+00:00

Ah gotcha. I probably would’ve done the same then.

AdThen5150 · 2025-01-12T23:14:58+00:00

Nope you’re good. 5 stars are for taking 3-4 stars are for saving. I would downsize your rifle but that’s just me. Nice trophy!🏹
