Rare Hunting Knowledge Guide

Introduction

The Rare Hunting Guide Knowledge category can be found in your Knowledge (H) > Ecology tab. The knowledge category is required to craft the Olvian Manor Furniture, obtain unique titles, and rewarding loot depending on your hunting mastery.

There are 13 animals in total and each must be killed using a Hunting Matchlock and then gathered using a Butcher’s Knife. Some of the animals have certain mechanics you must do to spawn them, and have a long respawn rate of up to 24 hours.

Recommended Game Settings:

• It is recommended to use Medium/High-quality settings so you can see the effects of the spawn mechanics
• Make sure “Remove Others’ Effects” and “Remove Faraway Effects” is turned OFF under Display Settings > Display Quality
• Under Display Settings > Effects, make sure “Effect Opacity” is set to 100 and adjust your Gamma/Contrast as needed for day/night.

Cursed Stone Cobra

Cursed Stone Cobra can be found in Dreighan. The animal doesn’t have any special spawn mechanic, but once it reaches a certain HP, additional cobras will be spawned. You can kill these cobras first for extra loot.

Moonlit Crystal Alligator

Moonlit Crystal Alligator spawns in Kamaslyvia. This rare monster doesn’t have any special spawn mechanics. Just watch out for the red danger area when it does the roar attack.

Shadow Black Leopard

Possible titles:

• Chaser of Darkness
• Hunter of Darkness
• Moonlight in the Dark

Hawk

The Hawk spawns on various mountain peaks in Balenos. This monster doesn’t have any special spawn mechanic. Use ↑ on your keyboard to adjust the angle upwards. Crouching also makes it easier to shoot this mob. You may also need hunting food to help you kill this one because it can reset. When the hawk glows, it speeds up, after around 3 flights, the light will disappear and the hawk will move more slowly. This is the best time to shoot it.

Possible titles:

• Dreaming of Flying
• Flying as a Hawk
• Wings of a Hawk

Enchanting Rainbow Fox

Rainbow Fox can be found south of Calpheon, nearby to Oberen Farm, or just north of Marni Cave Path

Spawn Mechanic:

• When in the spawn location, you may see a glowing light orb on the ground
• Stand on the orb to make it disappear
• The orb will appear again nearby, follow the orb and stand on it again
• After standing on the orb 3-4 times, the animal will spawn

Oblivious Breoro

Oblivious Breoro can be found in Kamaslyvia, north of Acher Guard Post

Spawn Mechanic:

• When in the spawn location, you may see a glowing light orb on the ground
• Stand on the orb to make it disappear
• The orb will appear again nearby, follow the orb and stand on it again
• After standing on the orb 3-4 times, the animal will spawn

Parched Poison Net Desert Scorpion

Parched Poison Net Desert Scorpion can be found in Valencia, north of Illebab Oasis

Spawn Mechanic:

• When in the spawn location, you may see a circular burrowing effect with black smoke on the ground
• Stand on the effect each time it appears
• After standing on the effect 3-4 times, the animal will spawn

Star-loving Llama

Star-loving Llama spawns near Duvencrune, but only during night time in-game (10pm – 7am). The llama is the hardest of all of the animals to find. The best tip I can give is to stay at one of the locations for most of the night and only move every few game hours. Moving around too much and hopping channels seems to not spawn the llama.

Possible titles:

• Cuddly-Wuddly
• Nom Nom
• Pat Pat

Hyena Hungry for Prey

The Hyena spawns west of Ancado Inner Harbor in Valencia.

Moonlit Weasel

Moonlit Weasel can spawn in Kamaslyvia nearby to Polly’s Forest. This animal doesn’t have any special spawn mechanic.

Possible titles:

• Dewy
• Sun Shining Down
• Sunlit Dew

Deer

The Deer can spawn near Hexe Sanctuary but only at night time in-game (10pm – 7am).

Squirrel

This Speedy Squirrel can spawn on 3 different islands nearby to Illiya Island. The squirrel moves fast, and unlike the other animals, you get the loot straight away and can’t gather from it after killing it. There is no special spawn mechanic for this animal.

Possible titles:

• Here and There
• Speedy
• Zip Zap

Bear

The Bear can spawn either in the forest nearby to Toscani Farm in Balenos, or just outside Heidel. At the spawn location, there will be a floating beehive. You need to shoot the beehive to around 50% to spawn the bear.

Spawn Mechanic:

• Shoot the beehive to summon the bear
• Kill the bear first, then the beehive
• Both the beehive and the bear can be gathered afterward

Possible titles:

• Honey Keeper
• Honey-Sweet
• Sweet
