Again... thats a matter of opinion. It depends on what you want to do in the game.

Re: Max Fortune, Is It Worth It?

I have found that increasing speed helps out hunts more than fortune. I don't have any real numbers to back that up, but a few days ago I upgraded my horse from lev 1 to lev 5, and in a 16 hour hunt I recieved $14k- I think my previous high on a hunt was 4 or 5k.

The items I get on hunts tend to have a lot less worth than the equivalent $. I feel like I get level1 rings several times a day, when even a crappy hunt gives me at least $1k. I generally hunt for 12 hours.

Based on the information you have presented here, it is impossible to deduce that logically. Since hunts are based on luck and a combination of fortune and speed, you cannot state after one hunt, that speed is better. Additionally, your increase of 4 speed would not have made a difference of that much. A combination of luck, your stats, and hunting in an area that no one had hunted in previously led to that result. Nothing more. You could have easily gotten a level 15 ring and equipped it with the same result, however, nothing could be deduced from that either. For a situation such as this, hundreds of trials would be required in order to get any factual data at all.

Therefore, I am inclined to disredit your response. Nothing here is proven, factual, or has any relevance to the topic at hand.

Ouch :shock: .

That was just one example that stands out. My hunts have been considerably more fruitful since I upgraded the horse.

Btw, the horses have 2 speed per level, so I actually increase my speed by 8, a considerable amount. And yes, it could be that the very first hunt after my upgraded speed happened to be lucky and give me 2-3x more than I have ever received before in many hundreds of trials, but I am going to go w/ my gut on this one and say that the increased speed had something to do with it.

Re: Max Fortune, Is It Worth It?

Would have to agree with 08pearsj on this one. . .there are so many variables that come into play when hunting, hundreds of experiments would have to be performed under ideal circumstances to be able to come up with and concrete factual answer
