Yes you did and more experience info is welcome. 8-)
The more help that we can give new players the more fun they have and more people pay for game.
That is IMO a win win situation more maps more animals from EW ;)

hi all.

So what are we saying new players should not kill to many animals to start with,
as it will put their kill rate up to high per animal which puts them in the
"Intermediate" or "Elite" level of competitions,
and with spotting and tracking skills way below 12 they have a low chance of the top 3 places,
unless they are lucky to have the right animal walk past them,

so new players should just concentrate on getting their spotting and tracking levels up first really,
I am not saying don't do competitions as that also helps to get all levels up and are fun to do,
just do not expect to do well in the top 20 let alone the top 3.
Ghosts don't die they just fade away, like players do every day.

Even if his tracks are not there he some times shows up after you killed everything on the barrel had that happen alot 1-Hint to watch for is when you have small bears on barrel and they start trotting away not fleeing The big one is near by. He gets the barrel to himself look for the 21 to 24 score range or 200 kg to 250 kg weight range.

A decent tracking skill level (12 or above) needs some work, but for spotting level 8 are needed "only" 420 animals (bears). With two barrels in a good places, is a matter of days until someone can reach it. Spotting skill level 8 means "Weight 2 - The ability to tell the weight of a spotted animal with 80% accuracy." and for black bears this is translated into "240-290 kg.". ;)
