Well,if I'm on singleplayer or have started a multiplayer game and no one has joined,I find the weakest elk,run it away from the herd,when I think the time is right stalk it and catch up a little,then I run to the far side of the elk so that it just walks,and if my timing is right,go in for the kill sucsessfully. It usually takes about 5 times,though. Darn elk! :evil:

Multiplayer- In multiplayer, I would usually do a rally and my pack and I would stalk through the elk herd until we find the weakest elk, or if we have a pack of five any elk, including the bull. We would then let the fastest wolves run at the elk first, and then then who ever else. I usually am one of the first (speed and stamina glitch) so I will do a loop around the elk then quickly run and jump to the neck. We just would continue like this until the elk is dead.

Singleplayer cow- I will stalk around the herd of elk until I find the weakest one. I will then stalk up to it's neck or side and run and bite. I will do this until the elk backs away from you. I would then run in circles and randomly run in and bite until the elk is dead.

Singleplayer Bull- I will first create an elk "grave yard" by killing all elk except the bull. I will then run and bit the bull elk untill it back away and herd it to an elk carcass when I am almost out of health, eat, and continue.

First, I pick the weakest, (Or I go for the bull.) I stalk it, then I dash after it, I will usually herd it towards a carcass so I can take a break and refill health. I usually like to hunt alone, but hunting bull with others is fun. :)

I'll do both players ;)

Multiplayer- Usually on multiplayer I rally first then I chase the elk with my buddies. After we chase it for a little bit we bite it continuously till it dies.

Singleplayer- Singleplayer is harder because basically your mate just stands their doing nothing of that sort, so if i'm hunting a cow my mate usually helps so we chase to the edge and then kill it their, if I'm chasing a bull then I chase it to the nearest carcass bite it then eat and when the carcass runs out i chase it to the next one.

Multiplayer~
First off, we rally to get more strength. Helpful, it truly is. So then we usually go to the least glitchy hunting grounds (Sandbar Crossing) and usually find the weakest elk (unless we decide to hunt a bull). But a certain wolf is chosen to do that. While all the finding of the elk is happening, a few wolves (or perhaps just one wolf) who are the strongest will wait at a certain spot. The fastest wolves will then chase said elk to those said wolves (or wolf) and we all help each other bring it down, but we might have needed to rally again. If we are low on health, a wolf will run off to find the nearest carcass and then all of us chase the elk to the said carcass to fill up, but not all the way. Then once the elk is killed, we eat! And then perhaps hunt another elk.

Singleplayer~
Not much of a technique, but I chase the elk to the end of the map and kill it, because I cannot work with others to bring it down with a more complex, if you would say, technique.

Multiplayer- We usually find a place, and we chase the elk there. When we reach the destination, we all corner it. We start biting it, even though our bites are at the butt or the neck XD Anyway, and we keep it there, If it tries to run off we just corner it, it turns, and tries to run again. We repeat this until we have our kill ^^

Singleplayer- I usually just hunt in SC, anyway, I usually chase the elk as much as I can. However, I usually herd it away from the water, it makes the elk slower, sure, but same effects happen to me as well. And, chances are, the elk gets out first and gets a head-start.
we literally have no way of knowing whether or not the world outside of our consciousness exists

I think I just found the fastest way to kill an elk. When your stamina bar is full chase it,and everytime your stamina bar goes halfway down,stalk it until its full again. Do this as many times as it takes. Hope this helps! :D

I stalk through the herd, then choose the weakest one. Then I scatter the herd and chase after the weak one. After biting it, I stalk so I can recover stanima. I keep on doing this until the elk turns around to attack. When it trys to attack I go behind it and bite its rump so I don't get hurt.

when your by yourself and wanting to hunt: rally and bow wag whatever fills it up, wait a few moments until u get the bonus, run and go after a cow, since it dies quickly, I HAVE THE LOWEST STRENGTH EVER XD and my stamina is high enough, and the cow dies quickly, with no strength what-so-ever haha. going after a fast elk... run along side of it, after biting its rear O.o or back end(whatever shall u call it) and while running along side, quickly move and bite its neck, causing it to kick around like crazy, but it works ^^

Single Player: i chase the elk until it hits the edge of the map and can't go any farther.

Multiplayer: I do that or tell one person to wait somewhere chase it to him, while three more wait in a different place so the two of up after i bring the elk to him attack it ad lead it to the others so they are stronger when the weakened elk gets to them
