I MISSED THE POACHER'S AXE!!! :(

Post by jiggawalla »

On my first trip through Halted Stream Camp I left the Poacher's Axe on the Bandit. 50 hours of gameplay later, I regret that decision. Is there anyway AT ALL to get another Poacher's Axe? Can I loot it from a random hunter or bandit? Even if there's a tiny chance of them having one I would like to know if it's possible.

BTW I play on a PS3 so I can't just console code one out of thin air. Man that would be awesome.

The Wiki page says that Halted Stream Camp has a Respawn Time of either 10 or 30 days. Now, whether that means the Poacher's Axe will respawn if you haven't picked it up on a previous visit, I can't say. It's a "unique" item, but, perhaps it might continue to respawn until it is "Taken". However, it's possible it won't respawn after the camp has been flagged as "Cleared".

Surely somebody with a solid knowledge of how the game is bolted together can give a definitive non-speculative answer.

Thanks for the input, guys. I went through it two more times and it's not respawning. No big deal it's possibly the worst unique item in the game. I wanted to disenchant it and make a sweet hunting bow and go around hunting and selling meat and pelts but pretty much every animal dies in 1 hit so big whoop:)

Thanks again.

well, you could just go to Clearspring Cave for the Bow of the Hunt. you can't unenchant it though.

also, I have 2 Poachers Axes, it can respawn. but dungeons tend to stop respawning after the first of second run through them, for me anyway.
