How to Get a Hunter License in Duckside

     In Duckside, getting a Hunter License is essential for advancing through the game’s sacrificial rituals and unlocking the rewards that come with them. Whether you’re seeking to make powerful sacrifices at the Shrines or just trying to up your resource game, obtaining Hunter Licenses is a critical step. This guide will take you through all the ways you can get your hands on them, from raiding hunter camps to outsmarting high-level NPCs.

 

    

 

Where to Find Hunter Licenses

 

     Your primary target for finding Hunter Licenses will be the hunter camps scattered around Duckside’s world. These camps are usually located near Shrines, making them a hotbed of activity. Keep an eye out for camps while exploring, especially when you’re near gas stations, ruined buildings, or roadsides where hunters often patrol.

 

    

     Sometimes, you can also get lucky by taking down NPCs guarding these areas. These NPCs might drop a license or other valuable loot, but the camps are the jackpot. You’ll also occasionally stumble upon hunter NPCs out in the open world, keeping guard over pathways and other locations. Engaging them could net you a license, though they tend to be fewer and far between.

 

    

 

Prepare for the Battle

 

     Raiding a hunter camp isn’t for the faint of heart, so you’ll want to gear up. Hunters are some of the highest-level enemies in Duckside, and they don’t go down easy. You’re going to need long-range weapons, plenty of ammo, medical kits, and, if possible, painkillers (which instantly boost your health by 10 points).

 

    

     Before heading into the fight, make sure you’ve equipped yourself with armor, like a helmet and military gear, to reduce damage from enemy bullets. You’ll need all the protection you can get, especially when facing off against hunters who specialize in ranged attacks.

 

 

Best Tactics for Raiding Hunter Camps

 

     When approaching a hunter camp, stealth is your best friend. Sneaking up on NPCs from behind often works wonders, as they won’t see you coming. If you manage to get the drop on them, a single shot in the back could be all you need to take them down and loot their pockets.

 

    

     In more intense encounters, you'll find yourself in active firefights. The NPCs in hunter camps tend to advance slowly toward your position, forcing you to constantly shift and find new cover. Use trees, hills, or any natural landscape to your advantage. If you get injured, use this time to heal or switch weapons.

 

    

     The most dangerous NPC you’ll face is the elite hunter—these guys are duck-killers through and through. They move fast, shoot relentlessly, and never stop moving. If you encounter one, stay calm and wait for your moment to strike. Don’t waste bullets by firing wildly; get close and go for a well-timed shot.

 

 

Post-Battle Looting

 

     Once you’ve cleared out the camp, it’s time to loot! Search through backpacks and supplies left behind by the hunters. Hunter Licenses will usually be found among their items, but don't stop there. Grab anything useful and head to a recycling station to break down any extra junk you don’t need. The resources you get from recycling can be put toward crafting or upgrading your base.

 

    

     With each Hunter License you acquire, you get closer to making a sacrifice at the Shrines. The sacrifices will trigger valuable airdrop supplies across the map, giving you and your crew a massive leg up in the game. The process isn’t easy, but with the right tactics, gear, and a bit of patience, you’ll be well on your way to dominating the world of Duckside.
