Hello PCF.
10 years later and I'm still uncertain about some things in this game, so I am turning to you guys once again.
Currently I am the owner of 2 maces,
Having these two maces allows me to pick and choose weapons depending on the size of the mob. However, I am uncertain when to use one or the other.
For example, when hunting feffox young-mature I use un-enhanced MK III + VIII amp because I assume that is the better option due to the high hp of feffox (1400HP for youngs), but is this overkill? Should I use the mkI + VI unenhanced instead?
Basically, I do not know what HP limits I should use my maces on. I do not know when to use more DPS to take down a type of mob that has high attack/regen. I do not know when to use enhancers or when not to. I am trying to cut down on overkill because I did a test run on Berycled Stalkers (560 hp) with unenhanced MK III + VIII amp and I think I got like 60~ish % return which kind of confirmed my suspicion that I am burning peds by always being enhanced on my MK III mace. I love DPS but I want to give this game a new effort, this time with a new approach. My goal is to make some PED each month while hunting, and I will do this by chasing markup items.. regardless on how big or small the mob is. I'm even considering picking up a shortblade or powerfists and going after the argo mission that I never finished.
Any information, tips, or comments are appreciated to help me become a smarter hunter. I look forward to your responses and thank you in advance!
Cheers
