You're among the best hunt players I know, and yet, you're also not above teaching people how to play better, or even new players how to approach the game when they start. I can really appreciate that with you. Thanks, Rachta.
"As a solo you should be happy with a single bounty." I really appreciate hearing someone of your caliber say this, cause while sure someone of your skill could probably pull of solo double bounties on the regular, you keep the average player in mind. Great video, and keep up the good work.
thing is, its easy to forget you only need the one bounty to trigger the solo bonus, hell, stealing a bounty and extracting thats like 500+ dollars for literally 0 risk. People worry too much about big dick and too little about actually having enough dollars to be at a comfy spot.
Keep in mind this is also a tip that scales with skill somewhat. Even for him I'm sure getting double bounties can be hard when he is matched vs similar MMR players. And the risk going for the 2nd bounty as a solo when everyone can see you is very high, at least if many are still alive and so forth. BUT, take the opportunity if it arises.
Even with my decades of gaming experience, I almost always do tutorials for games. A game may have a mechanic that you might miss if you don't do them. I cannot remember examples, but I have had a few games where my friends were suprised by something because they skip the tutorials.
This. I went from 2019 until 2022 not knowing that immolators don’t explode if you use blunt damage. I use to use poison ammo or get on top of something they couldn’t reach and kill them with normal ammo.
Damn this was a very nice guide man , really cool you explained everything you did and that's so helpful to really understand the game. Gratz on the Bayou bawl win btw thanks for the video.
Can honestly appreciate these in depth guides where you take the time to explain your thought process along with your decision making. Great video full of useful info that can be consistently applied in different scenarios each game. Much thanks Rachta!
This is one of my favorite budget loadouts, but i also like to take fusees (cost only 10$) and they are super useful for killing concertina armoreds and hives if you dont want to shoot them. Downside is that you will get resupply for them from lootboxes and not consumables but i think its still worth it.
@@marsmellow1589 Well then its really different loadout, midrange encounter with hunters is really hard with nagant silencer. Fusees dont take weapons slot.
I've been using this setup for a few days and I've gained about $12,000 and climbed to 5 stars. I just love the Romero, it feels more reliable than the more expensive shotguns. You should definitely do more videos where you talk about what's happening and what's going through your mind, it's super interesting.
Don’t remember if this was mentioned or not, but another tip I would add when playing solo is to play on a hunter with three big bars. Weak vitality shots will fully heal you
Not always though. Since vitality shots are generally reserved for mid-battle scenarios when you need to heal FAST, you don't always have time to wait for your natural regeneration. If you're at 25 hp or lower, you would have to first wait for your HP to go back above 25, then use the vitality shot, then wait until your hp is back to max. So yes, you could theoretically heal back to max from most wounds with a weak vitality shot, but you're not always given the luxury to wait it out.
I would also recommend Winfield C with High Velocity and a cavalry saber as a medium-budget loadout. It's really fun as the Winfield is one of the most versatile weapons in the game due to levering. which makes it viable at medium (and sometimes long-range) as well as short-range. Cavalry saber is also a really crucial aspect of the loadout since it helps you deal with all the AIs in addition to absolutely scare the living shit out of your enemies when you charge at them. I've had a couple of trio wipes with only the cavalry saber, and that is just an experience in itself worth trying.
Watched every second and rewound several times to see how tf you pulled it off. Game sense is on point, def taking notes. Love the live narrated gameplay.
I love this loadout! You truly converted me into a fan of the Conversion Pistol with FMJ, it's sooo good. Conversion dualies with the FMJ can be quite nasty as well, depending on the situation.
I love that even as a high caliber player with what looks like 2M hunt dollars still wants to show us casual or average players the best tips and ways to move up in the hunters world. thank you for taking the time to make this awesome guide. your tip for pre aiming angles with headshots literally got my kd from 1.0 to 1.6
my dad told me about your channel and im learning a lot of game sense from you, as an ex call of duty vet of more than 10 years im quite good at picking up new 1st person shooters, but nothing comes close to the hunt. your teachings have carried me too 5 stars with only 120 hours, thank you sir Z
Great loadout. Having a lot of fun with it in 1v3s. I would recommend a fire bottle (helps with forcing enemies to push by burning teammates), and dusters instead of a knife. Playing solo you'll get bogged down with mobs and only having 4 heavy melee attacks before running out of stamina sucks.
Hell of a video. Seriously loved all the info and gameplay you provide. Explaining every move you are making is a great way for a new player to learn. Thank you
I love the highlights / funny videos you do, but I think this is really my favourite type of content, I hope we can see more didactic games like this, maybe with other loadouts.
I literally won like 7 out of 15 games with this loadout.. Thanks!! I've only been playing for like a week but I played alot of fps games so it wasn't a bad transition.
They should make it where once the boss is found and that door opens, it comes out into the field. That would make a great battle with fighting players and the boss!
everytime you say: "that was ez kill [insert any reason here] " i wanna shout YEAH FOR YOU IT WAS ! 🖕😁👍 i rly like these longer commentary vids, keep em coming! 👌
I find super useful to take alert trip mines,it costs only 30bucks, and it can sometimes kill someone with red barrel or burn his small chunk with yellow barrel and this will help a lot in upcoming fight. And as a solo you usually move faster than teams, so you can basically put traps next to barrels you pass around on your way to boss.
That's more than 10% increase in cost, more if you have anything contraband (consumables, knife, pistol is common contraband on this loadout). You go from profit from second clue, to having to find three clues. And for what? Something that is relevant at most every three games. Alert mines are fun, but not very good when you are going budget.
My go to budget loadouts are Close range-Romero+Pax Medium/close range-Windfield+Saber Long range-Spark+Officer I personally alway bring a fire/oil bomb to burn bodies, not about burning but more about forcing the other guy out cause i don't want to camp the body nor looking for him.Plus now the fire burn for quite a long time to i can use it to deter people from hallway etc...
My goto budget loadout is springfield compact (not deadeye) and two revolvers, whatever i have available as contraband. As goofy as it sounds, its working alright most of the time for me. A lot of the time you'll have all of the weapons available for free, and if not, its barely a 100$ for having all bases covered. Dual wielding rng will mess with you from time to time, but if you figure out how to use springfield properly you'll only need revolvers at the closest possible range where missing on rng is nigh impossible.
ive actually been running around with Caldwell Convert Pistol + FMJ all the time. ive been trying to tell my friend about it over using the Uppercut. nice advice and loadout
Hey man I really appreciate the video but in this scenario you got to the boss lair first, it would be cool if you showed how solos should play if they do not get there first.
I need to test this, but if you really want to make money, and you are confident you can pick up a few kills, you could possibly bring full tools and consumables so that looting hunters gives you money instead of nades and such
I actually really like Magpie. After kiteskin & dauntless there aren’t many decent ways to waste 1 point and getting some regen for the bounty is kinda nice.
he said "easy kill. just line up at headshot level" and im just here like this mans hit detection is crazy. i just downloaded a pre amp and eq cuz i use an interface and my headsets just a cheap studio headset and my audio detection has gotten much better but that is insane.
conversion pistol fmj definitely does not start damage dropoff at 40m, i did my own independent testing in training for a few hours and am near certain that it starts at 30m (all compact ammo fmj and medium pistol too)
More love to crossbow for low budget loadout. A crossbow is most of the time one-shot or death to bleed 1 sec later, with a much better range then Romero(easy kill on 25/30 m)+ silence . I have multi teamwipes with this weapon as solo.
I do this too, it's a great way to save money and honestly the early weapons is something everyone should get used to using more. The expensive weapons are just too pricey to keep equipping. I must say I was surprised though when I played on the US servers they run around with mosins and lebels all the time, or did at least when I played but on EU you always see the winnie and the romero.
The amount of other idiots running around the bayou with this exact loadout yesterday was staggering. Good thing was it meant me and my buddies never ran out of ammo
Great video, I hope I'll get this good one day. One question:how do you do those jumps from a standing position? Looks like your jump is as if you are sprinting
Thanks a lot for the advice! I play a lot solo and always have no money! I have to play with anything but now for the same money I will have a decent set to play! maybe this is not the best, but if they kill me(but they will definitely kill me in the game), then I don’t feel sorry for the losses!))
I just started playing like dime hours ago and is amazing see you play, shows the enormous skill gap. In other games i get mad bc some random killed me for some bullshit but in this game if the guy plays well its like "dude what an animal".
Rachta how do you determine the audio cue so much better, absolutely flawless. I am getting it very difficult to get any information based on audio. Many times I think the player is at back but in reality it could be anywhere. Any tips pls?
What are your thoughts on poison bullets and incendiary rounds? I’ve seen people write them off entirely. I like using fire ammo with levering on the Winnie because it adds value at the damage drop off point where even if 2 shots don’t kill it’ll at least pressure with fire. Poison ammo I have not found a use for but I’ve been wanting to try silenced sparks with poison and poison sense
@@bgodley504 yea that’s why I said sparks specifically, do you know the duration on the nagant pistols? I thought it was low, like 5 seconds and turns it into a 3 tap which is why I haven’t used it
@@greenmist9449 the problem I have with that is how rare the ammo is afterwards. The normal ammo kills the monsters in 1 headshot except immolators and armored who die in 3 hits anyways. Doesn’t seem worth it to drastically cut your ammo resource for that
My favorite loadout right now is Springfield dumdum ammo, Caldwell chain pistol, knife, medkit, dynamite, and 2 weak healing syringes. It isn't terribly expensive, and its served me well so far.

Yeah, top players are often promoting "all or nothing" play style. It's refreshing to see "take what you can get and leave" from someone like Rachta

I like that you occasionally make these videos , even tho I have been playing the game for some time there’s always something new to learn in the game
Even with my decades of gaming experience, I almost always do tutorials for games. A game may have a mechanic that you might miss if you don't do them. I cannot remember examples, but I have had a few games where my friends were suprised by something because they skip the tutorials.

I love the guide and gameplay examples where you show your thought process.
Great videos keep up the amazing work
Thank you for this great guide! While watching you play solo, I realized how rushed and panicky my own playstyle is, actually. Time to change that ;)
I've been using this setup for a few days and I've gained about $12,000 and climbed to 5 stars. I just love the Romero, it feels more reliable than the more expensive shotguns.

@@Navajonkee you could pop one. And wait to heal completely while still having the boost
@@Whispersmith646 Vitality shot. Not regeneration.

Cavalry saber is good, but machete is cheaper.
Nah. 2 caldwells make you sleep faster than you charge.
Really nice style for videos, calmly explaining what's what, thinking out loud about what you do while you're doing it (that's a skill too)

well said well done. i can honestly say i learned some things!
My go to budget loadouts are
Close range-Romero+Pax
Medium/close range-Windfield+Saber
Long range-Spark+Officer
I personally alway bring a fire/oil bomb to burn bodies, not about burning but more about forcing the other guy out cause i don't want to camp the body nor looking for him.Plus now the fire burn for quite a long time to i can use it to deter people from hallway etc...

You need better aim and more game knowledge to be able to make that weapon work. His loadout is more noob friendly.
I do this too, it's a great way to save money and honestly the early weapons is something everyone should get used to using more. The expensive weapons are just too pricey to keep equipping. I must say I was surprised though when I played on the US servers they run around with mosins and lebels all the time, or did at least when I played but on EU you always see the winnie and the romero.
Me: spawns, run 50m, get a crossbow bolt in the back from a guy sitting in the woods.
So you are the reason why Conversion and Romero got more expensive!
