11Overview22Hunting Challenges are a set of 11 challenges in Crimson Desert that belong to the Life category. These challenges revolve around wildlife interaction: catching birds, hunting animals, and collecting various types of hides through skinning. Completing all 11 Hunting Challenges unlocks the Ultimate Hunter trophy and achievement.44Each Hunting Challenge is unlocked by picking up a Sealed Abyss Artifact from a specific roadside location. The artifact describes what you need to do, typically involving gathering specific animal materials or interacting with wildlife across the continent of Pywel.66How Hunting Challenges Work88Hunting in Crimson Desert involves tracking, killing, and skinning animals in the open world. Different animals yield different materials: Thin Hide, Thick Hide, Sturdy Hide, Short Hair Hide, and Long Hair Hide. Some challenges require collecting all five types, which means hunting a variety of creatures across different regions.1010Bird-catching challenges work differently. You approach living birds in the environment and press the interact button to pick them up. You need to catch different species; the same bird caught repeatedly does not count toward the total.1212All Hunting Challenges1414#Challenge NameObjectiveLocationRewards1Feather of the EarthCarry 5 different birdsHernand, south side of road, northwest of Karin Quarry Rest Area1x Abyss Artifact, 1x Stamina Recovery I2Hunting Challenge 2To be confirmedTo be confirmedAbyss Artifact3Hunting Challenge 3To be confirmedTo be confirmedAbyss Artifact4Hunting Challenge 4To be confirmedTo be confirmedAbyss Artifact5When Animals DieObtain Thin Hide, Thick Hide, Sturdy Hide, Short Hair Hide, and Long Hair Hide through skinningSoutheast of Duskway Camp Ironcrawler Station1x Abyss Artifact, 1x Blessing of the Beast I6Hunting Challenge 6To be confirmedTo be confirmedAbyss Artifact7Hunting Challenge 7To be confirmedTo be confirmedAbyss Artifact8Hunting Challenge 8To be confirmedTo be confirmedAbyss Artifact9Hunting Challenge 9To be confirmedTo be confirmedAbyss Artifact10Hunting Challenge 10To be confirmedTo be confirmedAbyss Artifact11Hunting Challenge 11To be confirmedTo be confirmedAbyss Artifact1616Detailed Walkthroughs17171.

Walk up to birds in the environment and press the interact button to pick them up.2121The important detail is that you need 5 different bird species. Picking up the same type of bird multiple times does not count. Look for different birds near rivers, lakes, forests, and open fields. Common spots include the shores around Hernand's waterways and the forested areas near Bloomwood Ranch.23235. When Animals Die2525The artifact sits southeast of the Duskway Camp Ironcrawler Station. This challenge requires you to collect all five hide types through skinning: Thin Hide, Thick Hide, Sturdy Hide, Short Hair Hide, and Long Hair Hide. Each comes from different animals.2727Hunt a variety of wildlife to get all types. Small creatures like rabbits tend to yield Thin Hide, while larger animals like bears or boars drop Thick and Sturdy Hides. Goats and sheep provide the hair-type hides. After killing an animal, interact with the carcass to skin it. The Hunting skill in the Life Skills menu can improve your chances of getting rarer hide types.2929Hide Types and Sources3131Hide TypeCommon SourcesRegionThin HideRabbits, foxes, small gameAll regionsThick HideBoars, large deerHernand, DemenissSturdy HideBears, wolvesHernand, PailuneShort Hair HideGoats, sheepHernand farmlandsLong Hair HideMountain goats, highland animalsDemeniss, Pailune highlands32+Hide TypeCommon SourcesRegionThin HideRabbits, foxes, small gameAll regionsThick HideBoar s, large deerHernand, DemenissSturdy HideBear s, wolvesHernand, PailuneShort Hair HideGoat s, sheepHernand farmlandsLong Hair HideMount ain goats, highland animalsDemeniss, Pailune highlands3333Tips3434Carry a ranged weapon for hunting.
