In "War Dynasty", hunting is a very important thing in the game. It is the main source of meat in the early stage. If you want to hunt, you can first get a knife and a spear. After cutting down a few trees to obtain wood, you can Craft wood into wooden spears via the crafting menu.
How to hunt in War Dynasty game
Starting a hunt in Sengoku Dynasty is easy, all you need is a knife and a spear. After chopping down a few trees to obtain wood, you can craft the wood into a wooden spear through the crafting menu. It's a good idea to make a few wooden spears in case your first throw fails, or worse, if the first attack fails to knock the animal down, causing it to start attacking you. You'll also need a knife to peel the bark, but if you're already able to chop down trees, crafting one shouldn't be difficult.
Later in the game, you'll be able to craft better spears, or use a bow and arrow to hunt more efficiently. This is especially useful when dealing with dangerous animals that may fight back.
Next, you need to find some animals. If you go north from the burned village near your starting location, you should be able to find an area with deer. There is a good fox hunting spot near the deer. Please refer to the map above for specific locations.
When you see an animal on the horizon, press the C key to crouch and approach quietly. Your goal is to get as close as possible to them without startling them, causing them to run away or attack. Once within throwing range, hold down the right button to aim, aim at their head, and left button to throw the spear. If your aim is accurate, the animal will fall to the ground and you can approach the carcass. Switch to the knife and interact with the corpse to skin it, obtain meat, and other useful materials if you unlock the corresponding skills.
You can cook meat on a campfire or fire pit, which will not only delay the decay time of the meat, but also increase the hunger value recovery effect of the meat. Going on an occasional hunting trip is a great way to maintain your village's food supply early in the game, and you can also obtain furs, antlers, and other materials after you unlock the necessary skills.
Hunting skills in "Sengoku Dynasty"
There are two skills that are very useful during the hunt, one of which can be unlocked from the start. The first skill is "Animal Trophy Hunter", which is located in the first column of the "Way of the Samurai" skill tree. Unlocking different levels of this skill will allow you to collect more materials from your prey, initially unlocking pelts and later items such as antlers, tusks, and claws. As your skills improve, you'll be able to use these materials when crafting more advanced items, so unlocking this skill early can save you a lot of time.
Another hunting skill is called "Leather Master", which is located in the fourth column of the skill tree. This skill increases the number of items you gain when skinning. This means you get more resources in less time hunting, making it well worth the investment.
