Achievements

Achievements are to measure a player's progress and can also be a motivator to use certain weapons or to hunt certain animals When ever an achievement in reached, a message is displayed in the upper left corner of the game. If multiple achievements are completed with the same harvest, all according achievement pop-ups are displayed.

Note: Achievements used to be the basis to calculate the Hunter Score. This is no longer the case since the introduction of Hunter Score 2.0.

## Progress Overview

Your Achievement page shows your progress in the different areas. Move your mouse over the progress bars to see the numbers behind them. You will also find your five most recent achievements. If you completed multiple achievements of the same category, only the latest will be listed here. For example, when you made 10 kills with the Muzzleloader, you will only see the 10 kill achievement, but not the 1 kill achievement, even if they are both among your most recent ones.

## Achievement Collector Badges

Achievement Collector Badges are available in five different categories, named after animals and ranked by their hunting difficulty. Those badges are shown in your profile when you reach a certain percentage of all achievements that are currently available. Badges are dynamic. When ever the amount of achievements increases through the addition of animals or weapons, the badges get recalculated. This can potentially mean that your badge changes to a lower one, until you have again reached the required percentage.

**Turkey** – 90 – 100% of all existing achievement points reached

**Red Fox** – 75 – 89% of all existing achievement points reached

**Black Bear** – 50 – 74% of all existing achievement points reached

**Moose** – 5 – 24% of all existing achievement points reached

## Achievement Master Header Images

These are the available in six different variations for each of the Achievement categories. You unlock them by reaching certain levels in becoming a Species, Weapons or Exploration Master. Unlike Achievement Collector Badges, once unlocked, images remain available to you forever, even if there are more species and weapons introduced later. You can pick the image you want to display on your profile within the Profile Settings menu. If you don't choose any, the most recently earned head image will be displayed by default.
