So you wanna hunt some Chompies, eh? First off, you must have
already completed the Big Chompy
Bird Hunting Quest. If you've already finished that quest, you should
already have the requirements of 5 Fletching and 30 Ranging. You can begin hunting
for Chompy Birds in the Feldip Hills area, where you found Rantz in the quest.
Getting Started
Hunting for Chompy Birds takes place in the Feldip Hills, which
is located south of Yanille and east of the Ogre City called Gu'Tanoth. Along
with the requirements of 5 Fletching and 30 Ranging, 30 Cooking is recommended
as you'll be able to cook the Chompies. Their meat heals 10 HP, which is helpful
since you're near some vicious Wolves and Ogres.
Be sure to check out the map of the entire
Chompy Hunting Grounds
if you need any help!
Items You Need
You'll
need an Ogre Bow, which you obtained from the Big
Chompy Bird Hunting Quest. You can also make a Composite
Chompy Bow after
completing the Zogre Flesh
Eaters Quest. The Composite Bow shoots twice as fast as a regular Ogre
Bow.
Secondly,
you'll need some Ogre Arrows. To make these, kill some
Wolves and use a chisel on their bones to make the Ogre Arrow Tips. You'll make
about 2-6 each time. To make the Shafts, cut an Achey Tree from near Rantz and
fletch them into arrow shafts. Add feathers (4 per arrow)
and the tips to finish the arrows.
Finally, you'll need a pair of Ogre Bellows from the quest. If
you don't have any, just go into the cave near Rantz and open the chest in the
large room to get a set.
Lets Hunt Some Chompies!
Now you need to get some Bloated Frogs. Go to the swamp area
and use the Bellows with the swamp bubbles to fill them with gas. Now use the
Bellows with the Swamp Toads to get a Bloated Frog. Collect 3, as that's as many
as you can hold at once, and head a short distance north to the forest.
Place
a frog on the ground and 'hide' in the forest a short distance away. If a Chompy
Bird doesn't show up after awhile, try moving around a bit.
Once a Chompy flies down, start shooting at it with your bow.
It has 10 hitpoints, and you shouldn't have much of a problem killing
it. After you've killed it, pluck it to get some feathers. You can also take the bones and raw Chompy Meat that it drops.
Chompy Hats
Every time you kill a Chompy Bird, your character will cut a
notch in their bow to mark how many kills they've had. You can check how many
kills you've had from the right-click menu of your bow. Once you get enough kills,
Rantz will give you a Chompy Hat to show off your expertise. They're made up
of a headband and a certain number of colored feathers, depending on how many
kills you've made.
