Ho-Ho-Howdy hunters!

It's that time of the year again when people are nice to each other, exchange pretty presents and... hunt down Reindeer in Hemmeldal!

"Holidays are not about presents!" I hear you say? What a steaming pile of charcoal! This year's holidays are ALL about Present$!

You can get Present$ points by taking part in our special holiday mission and competitions, as well as harvesting animals and finding collectible presents scattered around the EHR!

We have frozen Christmas time (time will always be 18:00) and decked the halls in Hemmeldal. There are some nice Christmas decorations placed around the reserve… as well as Rudolph, so keep an eye on those Reindeer noses, as harvesting them will also grant you a sizeable amount of Present$!

In order to take part in the event you will have to click on the big banner you will find in the Launcher (or Website) home page:



Participate for the prizes, the trophies, and the glory! The hunter with the most Present$ at the end of December the 21st will win a very generous first prize!

[h2]COMPETITIONS[/h2]

The event comes with 5 competitions each lasting 3 days finishing just as the new one starts!

Check the calendar below to see their exact order.

Completing a competition in any place (just qualify!) will also award the hunter 200 Present$ points.

Each competition comes with 7 tiers based on your Hunter Score:



Prizes for the competitions look like this:


[h2]MISSION[/h2]

This year's mission is called Searching for Rudolph. It's only one mission, but it's as challenging as a whole mission pack!

You will have to harvest one animal for each species living the Hemmeldal hunting reserve, and ultimately find the elusive red-nosed Reindeer.

"Searching for Rudolph" will last for the whole event's duration, from the 7th to the 21st of December.

Completing this mission will earn the hunter the following rewards:

✳️ 5000 gm$
✳️ A winter camo tree-stand
✳️ 500 Present$ points
✳️ A trophy


[h2]CAMPAIGN[/h2]

This year Santa has dropped collectible presents all over the EHR and if you find them, you can pick them up to earn Present$ points.

They are a lot rarer than in previous years though (has someone been misbehaving, huh?) so if you find some consider yourself lucky!

On top of collectibles, harvesting animals in ANY reserve during the Happy Holidays 2020 event also gives you Present$.

Ultimately, the more Present$ you collect, the more in-game prizes you are rewarded.

These are all the different ways in which you can earn Present$:



And this is how the event's prize pool looks:

Howdy Hunters!
Just a quick one to let you know this year's Holidays event will run from the 7th to the 21st of December 2020.
Get your gear ready, Rudolph is coming back!

Howdy hunters!
Today we are glad to introduce a brand new feature to theHunter Classic: Daily Missions!
This is a completely new mission system that we hope will provide you with extra entertainment, as well as give you one more way to earn gm$.

[h2]HOW DOES IT WORK?[/h2]

✅ In the Launcher (or Website) you can now find a new section under Missions called Daily Missions (DM from now on).

✅ Each day every player receives a new DM to complete. Different players will receive different DMs.

✅ By completing a DM every day increases your DM streak by 1.

✅ Skipping or failing to complete a Daily Mission will break your DM streak and will bring you back to day one.

✅ DMs come in three difficulty levels: Easy, Medium, and Hard.



✅ Each difficulty level has different base rewards: 100 gm$ for Easy, 500 gm$ for Medium, and 1000 gm$ for Hard respectively.

✅ Your first DM will be an Easy one, then DMs of different difficulty levels will alternate according to a pattern that we call a "cycle". A cycle looks like this: E-E-E-M-E-E-E-M-E-E-E-M-E-E-E-H (where E stands for Easy, M for Medium, and H for Hard). As you can see a cycle lasts for 16 days, provided of course that you keep completing the DMs that are assigned to you.

Example of cycle

✅ Once the first cycle is completed, a new cycle begins with gm$ rewards increased by 10% (Easy = 110 gm$, Medium = 550 gm$, Hard =1100 gm$).

✅ With every subsequent cycle, rewards increase by an extra 10% up to a maximum of double the amount of the original rewards (a 100% increase). So for example, if you manage to complete 10 cycles in a row without breaking your streak you will then receive a x2 reward for each mission which will continue until you break your streak.

[h2]IMPORTANT NOTES[/h2]

✅ As they're meant to be completed in one day, DMs are supposed to be overall quite simple and will not require specific weapons or equipment.

✅ Unlike regular missions, for a harvest to be valid in DMs, you will have to kill the animal yourself. Friends can still help you find the required animal in a Multiplayer session though.

✅ The Daily Missions system does not replace the existing Missions system (which has been now renamed: "Regular Missions").

[h2]STORE ITEMS[/h2]

With the introduction of Daily Missions, a new service is available in the Store under "Services":



Resume Daily Missions Streak - allows you to resume a DM's streak. For example, if you have a long streak of completed DMs and then missed or failed a DM, you can use this service to resume your streak and continue from your last completed DM.
The good thing is, it doesn't matter how much time has passed since you broke your streak, you will always be able to resume it - even if you broke it, say, a year before.
This service can be purchased in advance and activated when needed. There is no limit to how many of these cards you can purchase or own.
