Hunter Score
Definition: The Hunter Score is the sum of all rank points that you have collected throughout your entire time in the game.
The Hunter Score is the number displayed on the right of your avatar in your profile. The scores of all players in the game are compared. They define your position among all players which is also displayed as "Rank" (not to be confused with the rank points explained below).
The Hunter Score has nothing to do with the factors below
- scores of the animals you harvest
- tracking, spotting and shooting skills
- the quality of your shots
- your hit statistics
- Missions you have completed
- competition results
- Achievements - these counted for the Hunter Score until March 9, 2017
Rank Points
Rank points count towards your Hunter Score and come in three categories. These categories are Animals, Weapons and Collectables. You can find your ranks by clicking on the Ranks tab below your Hunter Score.
Animals
Every animal species has its own rank. You can collect rank points for each animal until you have reached 1000 kills for this animal. Killing more animals of this species will not further increase your Hunter Score.
Weapons
All unique weapons have their own ranks. Weapon variations, such as the different Plinkingtons, are grouped together. Harvests with any of these three rifles will count towards the same Rank. Weapons are grouped in the same way as they are for your Shooting Skills.
Example:
The .22 Plinkington rifle comes in color variations: Marble; Winter Camo; Wood. All of these three rifles count towards the same rank. No matter which of the three guns a player uses, all kills will count towards the Plinkington Rank.
What it looked like in the old system:
- .22 Plinkington Marble: 100 kills
- .22 Plinkington Winter Camo: 50 kills
- .22 Plinkington Wood: 30 kills
Now looks like
- .22 Plinkington: 180 kills
Collectables
Collectables have three ranks:
- Common mushrooms
- Rare mushrooms
- Treasures, which are
- Norse Pot and Byzantine Coin in Hemmeldal
- 3 types of Old Aboriginal Knife in Bushrangers Run
- Eagle Feather and Ammonite Fossil in Val-des-Bois
- Shark Tooth and Silver Dollar in Rougarou Bayou
- Raven Feather in Whiterime Ridge
- Antler Sheds in all reserves with deer species
Each kill per rank adds you one Hunter Score points. All Ranks are limited to a maximum of 1000 points.
