Northern Hunter Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Is the flare pistol supposed to kill wolves? I just made a direct hit on fluffy in my current interloper game and when I returned I found a corpse. I had no bow, I never had close combat, and the wolf is dead.

GorillaDust Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 Yes, flares kill wolves, and bears - sends them running around in a panic first. Highly satisfying experience. 10/10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

palbi Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 I'm not sure, but in Interloper it's not always lethal for wolves. I hit one, and as it was running, looked like a champion with the olympic torch. But after a while, it returned with no wisible harm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L² Posted March 4, 2017 Share Posted March 4, 2017 It's not too surprising that this would be a possible outcome. The impact of a flare pistol round would be significant to a 50-60lb wolf and the damage done by the intense heat would likely be lethal. Never tried it, but now I'm curious.

Jolan Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 when bear hunting particularly in CH it makes finding the beastie much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thekillergreece Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Flare Pistol do kill wolves and bears yes. But it's not recommended to use flares pistol against the wildlife because they are very scarce unless you are going to die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, if you aren't using the flare gun against the wildlife, then what other use does it have? Agreed. But avoid bears at all costs. I mean, if you happen to encounter during a long journey without saving a progress and you have no flare gun bullets... Bye bye in that case. Flare guns are used only against wildlife. There is no use of it other than that. And no, helicopters wont come if you shoot it on the air! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
