In the world of *Ecos La Brea*, hunting AI animals can be as challenging as pursuing player counterparts. Mastering the art of AI hunting requires patience, strategy, and a keen understanding of the game's mechanics. Here's a comprehensive guide to help you become an adept hunter in *Ecos La Brea*.
How to Catch AI in Ecos La Brea
The key to successfully hunting AI in *Ecos La Brea* is **stealth**. Begin by using your **scent button** to detect any AI animals nearby. Once activated, you'll see **animal icons** indicating their presence. To further enhance your stealth, **crouch** to activate a meter that monitors your stealth level.
This **meter** is crucial as it indicates how close you are to spooking the animal. It fills up as you move, and once it's **fully filled**, the AI will bolt. To manage this, consider the **speed of your movements**. **Sprinting** will almost instantly fill the meter, while **running** has a significant impact. **Trotting** fills it more slowly, but **walking** is the slowest and should be your preferred method as you approach your target.
Another critical factor is the **direction** of your approach. Approaching **downwind** will cause the animal to spook faster. **Crosswind** is a middle ground, but the ideal direction is **upwind**, as it minimizes the chance of detection.
You must also pay attention to the **AI itself**. As you move, a **question mark** may appear above the animal icon. If you continue moving while this **question mark** is visible, the meter will fill up more quickly. To avoid this, **stop moving** until the question mark disappears.
Despite your best efforts, the meter will eventually fill up, prompting the AI to run. Be ready to **toggle Sprint** to chase it down. The AI's movements can be **erratic**, so it may take some practice to anticipate their paths. Hunting in **open fields** can be advantageous, as there are fewer obstacles to obstruct your view.
To successfully catch the AI, you need to get **very close** to bite down. Once you've secured your prey, **drop it** to the ground and then **eat it**. Continue this cycle of hunting until you're satisfied.
