Path of the Hunter quests are special animal hunts where you must kill a specific animal with a weapon that's provided to you, or a machete. These are unlocked as you liberate Outposts, and you start them from the board inside the Outposts once liberated.
One of the perks to these quests is that you will sometimes have to hunt down rare animals, which you will know by the "RARE" print on the posters when accepting the quests. These rare animals, when killed, can be skinned to obtain a one-of-a-kind item that can be used to upgrade equipment. There are a total of 23 Path of the Hunter quests, meaning that not all Outposts will have one.

FLAMETHROWER HUNT: RABID DOGS
- Where: Lazy Shore Marina
- Reward: $350
- Weapon: Flamethrower
- Kills: 8
There are a few problems with this hunt, mainly related to the Flamethrower. Be careful of setting yourself on fire, so don't use it too close. The other problem is that the dogs will run away as soon as you start firing, so it's best to tag all 8 dogs before you go after them., as this will help you keep track of them all.
FLAMETHROWER HUNT: LEOPARDS
- Where: Krige Valley River Fishing
- Reward: $400
- Weapon: Flamethrower
- Kills: 4
MACHETE HUNT: BEARS
- Where: Bridge Control
- Reward: $500
- Weapon: Machete
- Kills: 2
Hopefully you have the Tanto from getting the Letters of the Lost, as it will cut down on the number of slashes you have to use to kill a bear. Also, Animal Repellant is a must for this, as you will die. If you don't have the Animal Repellant at least, hunt down some Amber Leaves until you have at least 4 (craft 2 of them). Once you do, simply use one and go up to the bear, slashing at it until it dies.

PISTOL HUNT: BEARS
- Where: Dry Palm Storage Depot
- Reward: $400
- Weapon: Pistol
- Kills: 3 Bears
It is suggested that you have the D50 pistol from the shop before doing this, as the pistol the game provides for you is rather weak and bears can definitely both receive and deliver damage very well. Try to get the bears away from each other, as taking them all one at once will likely end up with you on the ground, dead.
