Avatar Frontiers of Pandora: How to achieve a clean kill

When you first start out hunting in this open-world Avatar RPG, you’ll soon realize you can’t always gather materials from animals you’ve killed. You can get a clean and merciful kill in Avatar Frontiers of Pandora by using a heavy bow and aiming for animals’ weak points.

A few hours into the main story, you’ll get the chance to learn how to properly get a clean kill, but before then, you won’t understand how. Once you unlock the main quest “Eywa’s Blessing,” you’ll earn yourself a heavy bow and learn how to get a clean kill.

You simply want to kill the creature in the least amount of shots and to do that, you should aim for the weak points. Head to your Hunter’s Guide, and find the creature you’re hunting. On their page, you can pin them with “F” to hunt them, and press “E” to show their weak points. You should notice soon that after analyzing them, yellow highlighted spots appear.

These are the weak spots you should aim for when hunting. I also always use the heavy bow, which deals more damage and can secure a clean kill. This also makes sure it’s merciful.

If you’re unloading a dozen arrows or bullets into an animal, that won’t get you high-quality materials like hide and meat. With these tips, you should now be able to easily get a clean kill in Avatar Frontiers of Pandora and never ruin a hunt again.
