In Whiteout Survival, hunting is a vital activity that provides essential resources and materials for progressing in the game. Engaging in hunting events such as the Bear Hunt, Beast Hunts, and Polar Terror Hunts allows players to gather valuable rewards that enhance heroes, improve bases, and strengthen alliances. Whether you’re a new player or a seasoned survivor, mastering hunting strategies is essential for success. For beginners, it’s helpful to first consult the beginner’s guide for Whiteout Survival and the tips and tricks guide for Whiteout Survival to establish a strong foundation.

Bear Hunt Event

The Bear Hunt is a prominent alliance event that occurs approximately every 47.5 hours. In this event, alliance members work together to defeat a colossal bear within a 30-minute window. Success in the Bear Hunt yields substantial rewards, including resources and gear enhancement materials.

Setting Up the Hunting Trap

To initiate the Bear Hunt, alliance leaders (R4 and R5 members) must set up the Hunting Trap within the alliance territory. The trap should be strategically placed, surrounded by alliance banners, to ensure quick access for all members. Once the trap is set, the event can be scheduled or activated manually, allowing members time to prepare for the hunt.

Enhancing the Trap

Enhancing the Hunting Trap is essential for maximizing damage. Members can contribute Explosive Arrowheads, which are obtained from hunting beasts, to enhance the trap up to level 5. Each enhancement level provides a 5% attack boost, resulting in a total bonus of 25% at maximum enhancement. It is advisable to fully enhance the trap before activating the hunt to ensure optimal rewards.

Strategies for Maximizing Damage

  • Hero Selection: Use your strongest heroes with high damage output. Top choices include Jeronimo (Infantry), Bahiti (Marksman), and Jessie (Lancer), all of whom offer superior combat skills.
  • Troop Composition: A balanced composition of 60% Marksman, 20% Infantry, and 20% Lancer ensures robust attacks and adequate defense.
  • Rally Coordination: Efficient coordination is key. Assign rally leaders with the highest troop deployment capacity and encourage members to join rallies promptly to maximize attacks within the 30-minute timeframe.
  • March Speed Optimization: Reduce march times by upgrading the Expedition Facility and utilizing heroes with march speed bonuses, such as Gina and Walis Bokan. Faster marches mean more attacks within the time limit.

Beast and Polar Terror Hunts

Beyond the Bear Hunt, players can engage in Beast Hunts and Polar Terror Hunts to gather resources and materials. These activities are critical for daily progression and resource accumulation.

Best Heroes for Hunting

  • Gina: Her Endurance Training skill reduces stamina cost by up to 20%, while Quick Paced increases wilderness march speed by 100%, making her one of the best heroes for frequent hunting.
  • Walis Bokan: His Huntsman’s Gift skill boosts wilderness march speed by 100%, enabling rapid attacks on beasts and polar terrors.

Efficient Use of Stamina

  • Avoid Stamina Cap: Ensure your stamina doesn’t reach the maximum limit of 200 to avoid wasting regeneration. Participate in hunts regularly to utilize stamina effectively.
  • Stamina Management: Heroes like Gina can reduce stamina costs, allowing for more hunts without quickly depleting resources.

Tips for Rapid Progression

  • Auto-Join Rallies: Activate the auto-join feature to participate in alliance rallies even when offline. This ensures you earn rewards consistently without manual effort.
  • Focus on Beasts for Resources: Hunting beasts is an efficient method for gathering resources needed for upgrades, particularly during the early and mid-game phases.
