Bring the Right Hunting Tool
Nothing is more important than having the right gear for any given task. Being in the right area at the right time will get you nowhere if you don’t have the right weapons. Of course, any weapon can usually get the job done, but you are rewarded for approaching hunting with a bit of finesse.
Far Cry 4 rewards you for clean kills by providing double skins. This means you’ll be able to get all of your desired upgrades with only half the amount of animal blood on your hands than you normally would have. The only way to get clean kills is to use arrows, your knife, throwing knives, or bolts. These methods provide not only clean kills but are also completely silent.
Of course, throwing knives, arrows, and bolts are scarce in the early game. Getting a kill allows you to recover the spent ammunition from corpses but you’ll be hard pressed to find a missed shot in all of that grass. Bring a gun with some decent stability if you need to make the job quick and dirty.
