Difficulty 5 fallows are so rare that I haven't even seen one, but I often get golds on difficulty 4. For example, fallow deer always spawn with a difficulty ranging from 1-5. What I have noticed is that certain animals can only spawn with difficulty within a certain range. They will also often travel with the wind at their back so they can smell you more easily.Īlthough trophy rating is not entirely dependent on difficulty, a higher difficulty does usually correlate to a higher rating. An animal with a high difficulty will be much less likely to respond to calls and will spook much easier. It is set when they spawn and determines how intelligent they are. Animal difficulty does not go up or down with distance.
