nicidee Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 Oh. My. God. I have tried killing this damn thing at least 20 times now. I watched one video where the guy runs up to the top of the mountain & just waits for it to show...so when the bobcat finally gets there its red dot goes away & the quest is failed right before I can kill it. WTF??? Then I watched another video where the person shoots the thing w/a gun as it is running by...but I am of course facing the wrong direction after I get up from examining the clue & don't even have time to aim much less fire before the thing is gone. Does anyone have any helpful tips for how to successfully complete this horrible, horrible mission...please??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceromorth Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 You can throw darts on the run, just fire the moment the bobcat is highlighted. Another option, it follows a preset route, you could just not chase it and go up top where it eventually runs, wait for it to run right at you and assassinate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicidee Posted November 14, 2012 Author Share Posted November 14, 2012 Okay thanks, I'll try the darts. Didn't actually know you could use them ranged as I have only used one in the game so far. Also I tried running to the top spot to wait for him, but it didn't work. Maybe I wasn't in the right place. God this quest is giving me fits...

After failing the first time, I did a fast-travel, returning the bobcat, and then I chased it for a bit. As soo as I started to run through the "valley", I climbed up the side and waited next to where the thing jumps across. Tap of the X and it was all mine.

IanCFitz Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 I used the bow. Never thought about the trip mine, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurricane Of 87 Posted November 14, 2012 Share Posted November 14, 2012 You can just blast this bitch with your 9mm as soon as you see it. Despite the mission talking up the bobcat's immaculate pelt so don't need it intact. Waste him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This made laugh^ On a serious note I had the same trouble, so when you go to analyse the clue look the other way so you're already looking at him, equip poison dart then spam the shit out of Y. You'll hit him with at least 1 of 3 darts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delta438 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I failed like 3 times trying to come after it, then I realised it always came from the same direction every time. So I equipped the gun, faced the general direction after examining the second clue and hit Y the moment it was highlighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shabba Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 (edited) Your doing something very wrong if you think running after it will catch it. Just take a LEFT with bow and arrow equipped going up the hill. Not the valley with the logs then the cave ahead. Now follow the red dot which is going to right in the valley, then under your position via the cave. The bodcat will surface from the left, move to the left near your start while staying on that hill. You will now see the bobcat at which point you shoot your bow in its face. It takes maybe a minute for the bobcat to circle around you. Stay on the hill and follow the red dot, staying on that LEFT handed hill from your start, which is overlooking the cave Edited November 15, 2012 by Shabba Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irix the Beast Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Hmm, I didn't have a problem with this quest. After examining the clue and chasing him once I saw there is enough time to assassinate him before he clears the first log. You just need to be quick.

ffm.piranha Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 I killed him with the bow directly at the beginning of the chase before he reached the first log after failing two times chasing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoosMakhina Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Er... I just chased it and killed it with the Hidden blade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkykong Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Hmm, I didn't have a problem with this quest. After examining the clue and chasing him once I saw there is enough time to assassinate him before he clears the first log. You just need to be quick. Ya, i would agree this method is most efficient. After analyzing the last clue when the bobcat shows up just run towards the 1st wooden log. Doing so the bobcat will just land right in front of u for the kill not even allowing it to run at all. In the case u miss the kill just restart, it will load u back to the clue that initiates the chase. Hope this helps, its the easiest method IMO and u dont ruin the quality of the pelt either, not that it matters too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjdavies Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Naturally failed the first time, but second time I analysed the clue with blood on the rocks, came into view I just shot arrow and done, no running required! I'm bumping this thread to help others from what I did above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dz06lt Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 i nailed it with a poision dart right at the beginning of the sequence, but i bet the trip mine would have been more fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bblcreator8790 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 After failing to catch it and use the hidden blade the first time, I just shot him as soon as the mission began on my second opportunity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayMoyles Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 Yeah, just chase after it for a little bit until it's highlighted, then blast that bitch with your revolver. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
