trupciks 23 Posted August 16, 2015 Hello! I recently started to play game without using any canned goods so hunting, fishing and traping is the thing for me now! I have tryed all methods and got results from each! But i have question for trapper guys-where is the best place to set rabbit snare and how often do you check them?

creamycowboy 139 Posted August 16, 2015 Put them away from where you are, go out of line of sight for maybe 5 minutes and check it. Usually you can place one, go loot a town or whatever and come back and check it. I don't think there really is a best place since the rabbit doesn't actually exist until the event happens at the snare. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZomboWTF 527 Posted August 17, 2015 do you need any bait to put into the snare or does it function without one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wasnu (DayZ) 392 Posted August 17, 2015 it takes exact 10 minutes to catch an rabbit or nothing. you have to stay min. 100 m away (or break the line of sight) from the trap until the 10 minute timer is over. i place mine mostly on the beach or dry riverstone texture. They are more visible on this textures than in the woods/grass the chance to catch an rabbit is realy low, sometimes you have to ruin 4-5 traps until you catch one.

q.S Sachiel 470 Posted August 17, 2015 Hmm. is the probability influenced by texture i wonder? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trupciks 23 Posted August 17, 2015 Someone once told me that you get best results if place them close to tree line! Maybe myth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RagedDrew 209 Posted August 17, 2015 it takes exact 10 minutes to catch an rabbit or nothing. So if it takes 10 minutes to catch nothing, what happens on the 11th minute? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
