Harris Residence Far Cry 5

Hunting is how you lot're going to make most of your disposable income money in Far Cry 5. Yous'll get some money from missions and side missions, merely the coin for yet some other boat or a fancy new shovel is probably going to come from selling animate being skins. Hunting each species of animal will also earn you betwixt ane and three perk points (once you hit a sure quota).

The trouble is hunting is inconsistent in Far Weep five. Y'all might stumble into a location where you tin can make thousands of dollars in a few minutes (similar the Harris residence or the Taft Spotter Tower), but you lot might as well await for a single skunk for hours without always finding one. Beneath, we've got a map and some tips for finding all 19 of Promise County's species along with some advice on how to become the most money out of every hunting trip.

Finding h unting spots

Ubisoft Montreal/Ubisoft

There are three ways to detect Far Weep 5's official hunting spots — the ones that will prove upward on your map:

• Stumble across them. As you're wandering — particularly when you lot're taking a cantankerous-land shortcut — you might but happen beyond a hunting spot. You probably won't even observe until the notification pops up on the left of your HUD.
• Route signs. If you stick to the roads, you'll notice animal crossing signs every one time in a while. These correspond to nearby hunting spots.
• Maps and magazines. Inside some of the buildings that you lot find — both residences and cult outposts — are hunting and fishing magazines. When you selection these up, new spots will become added to your map.

The matter about the official hunting spots, though, is that they're more suggestions than sureties. They serve as a good starting indicate, but y'all're rarely going to notice exactly what you're looking for at that marker. Instead, explore around hunting spots for prey species. For carnivorous species, toss some bait nearby — you're not guaranteed to go the fauna you're after, but it's more likely one will evidence up if you keep trying.

Use the map in a higher place as a guide to help you in your search for good hunting grounds. There's at to the lowest degree one spot where we (relatively) reliably found each of the xix species. Non every spot lines up with official hunting spots, but these are the locations that worked for usa. (We accidentally got a hunting achievement while researching this map, and then we know it works.) Here's what nosotros learned from all that hunting:

• Hunting birds is hard and not worth your fourth dimension. Of the xix species of animals in Far Weep five, five are birds. All birds driblet an item chosen feather and that'south information technology. You can sell them for $100 each, but — if your aim is as bad as ours — that will barely cover the price of your ammo. Hunt enough of each species of bird to get your claiming perk points, then don't worry nearly them any more.
• Headshots work on some animals. A headshot will driblet some animals with one shot, which will save yous a lot of time. That said, an M60 works only as well without all that bothersome aiming.
• Don't rely on the hunting spots on your map. Like we said in a higher place, they're more than suggestions. If you find someplace where in that location are reliably animals, make a annotation of it. Trust your experience more than the map.
• Some animals' skins are more valuable. Bank check the table beneath for the prices you lot tin can sell brute skins for. Some animals are just not worth your time if you're merely looking to make some quick cash. Focus on high-dollar animals that you can find consistently, or just read our guide well-nigh hunting at the Harris residence.

Hunting tips and tricks

Hunting is not exactly nuanced in Far Cry 5 — shoot a thing until it falls downward, then loot it — only at that place are some things y'all tin do to squeeze a little more than money out of the process.

Finding the animal y'all merely shot

Ubisoft Montreal/Ubisoft

Things tin get pretty hectic in a hurry while you're trying to do annihilation in Far Cry 5. If you're hunting something small or fast — things like hares and ducks — it is surprisingly piece of cake to completely lose track of where information technology savage.

Whenever you kill something — an brute or a cultist — a faint 10 volition announced on your compass at the pinnacle of the screen. It'southward very like shooting fish in a barrel to miss, merely it's also invaluable. Use this X to guide y'all to your loot.

Hunting perks

Ubisoft Montreal/Ubisoft

There are ii perks you'll desire to unlock as early on in your hunting career as possible:

• Harvest master (survivalist, eight points). This skill doubles the boodle y'all pick up from plants and animals. Where you lot'd normally only get one pare, you'll get 2.
• Journey pack (prepper, vii points). This perk gets you a bigger haversack. You'll exist able to carry more gear like medkits, just more than importantly for this guide, you'll exist able to carry more skins, feathers and bait as well. This ways more hunting earlier you take to caput to a vendor.

A couple other perks will assist you out, merely these are optional:

• King of the jungle (survivalist, vi points). First, this reduces the harm y'all take from animals. That's of import because yous're going to exist attacked by wolverines a lot while hunting here. Information technology also makes prey species less likely to flee from y'all.
• Sneaky sprint (assassinator, four points). This perk makes you motion faster while crouched, which keeps you mobile while staying out of sight.

Specialists and weapons

Boomer gets a 13/10.

Ubisoft Montreal/Ubisoft

Aside from your perks, y'all can make hunting easier by bringing forth the goodest boy and our favorite fang for rent, Boomer. He'll automatically mark animals on your HUD — white chevrons are prey and red chevrons are dangerous. He'll too occasionally retrieve small animals you kill so you don't accept to get looking for them in the castor.

If you accept to pick one companion, option Boomer. If you can bring two, Jess Blackness, master huntress, is a great add-on. Her feral friendly perk means that animals won't run abroad from her. When Boomer finds an brute, put it in your sights and gild Jess to sneak upwardly and impale it.

Ubisoft Montreal/Ubisoft

The loot you go from an animal depends on how you kill information technology. If you shoot a deer with a gun, you'll go one pare (without the harvest master perk). If you impale the same deer with a bow instead, you'll get two. Bring a bow hunting and use information technology whenever you can. It's not always practical, though, so bring along something stronger to back it upwardly (we're not maxim y'all should bring an M60 hunting, but we're not non saying that either). Merely make sure you use your bow equally much as possible, particularly on the more than valuable animals.

Homeopathic assist

Ubisoft Montreal/Ubisoft

Unsurprisingly, the homeopathic you can make called ultimate hunter is really helpful while hunting. It automatically marks all animals (and enemies) around you for a express fourth dimension.
