Kill List part 2 - Icarus Beta Weekend 6
0Some more work on the base, before heading out to hunt a predator. Should really have taken a little bit more time to gear up, since a firearm would have made things much easier, but there was also the challenge element of seeing what I could get away with and still succeed.
One major frustration was the fact the predator den marker only showed up at night-time. I do not know whether after getting the red ring that if I had just slept whether it would still have shown up, and let me fight it during the day, but I did not want to risk it and have to wait out an entire day just in case. But it did make for a rather annoying fight, and rather anti-climactic, since you just cannot really see what you are doing. Just becomes more frustrating than fun, at that point.
I tried to cheese it by laying out some floor torches - should have placed even more, really, to light up an 'arena' but originally I was hoping to lead it back along a certain patch and then get it stuck on terrain so I could cheese it and take it out from atop a rock. However there was a tether point that kept it from straying too far - so instead I just cheesed the hell out of that and kept attacking it as it started to make its way back to its lair. Overall the process of tracking it was more enjoyable than the fight itself, and I would have preferred if the objective had instead been to craft some form of trap to lay down and then wait for it. Something with some more ingenuity than just "attack this thing that has lots of health".
