Items & Technique

Required items:

  • Buff of eikthyr - The stamina drain reduction is very helpful in dispatching deer.
  • A club - The flint axe is great for clubbing, but any higher tier one hander will do fine sending deer to Valhalla.
  • Rag or leather armor - These armors dont reduce movement speed and allow reuniting deer with Odin much easier.
  • Eat to maintain stamina - Good choices include Cooked meat, Honey and Blueberries or Raspberries for a lengthy session reducing deer numbers.

Successful deer clubber items.

Keys to a successful clubbing:

  • Use Sneak to get in close - Pressing Left Ctrl by default will enter Sneak Mode and allow you to get in close & quiet to ease their suffering.
  • Ambush deer at waterfronts and near buildings - You can directly run at deer drinking water or munching tasty grass without sneak, but only if they have limited avenues for escape.
  • Dont stop smashing until his munching in the sky forest - Depending on choice of club, one hit may not be enough!
  • Show no fear - The deer certainly has more than enough, rightly so!

Getting in close with the Sneak Mode.

Afterword

Things to remember:

  • Be careful of other forest dwellers - Other creatures like the troll may even try to club you!
  • The deer is not your friend - If roles were reversed, the deer would happily be feasting on your tender juicy flesh and wearing your luxurious skin
  • Deer populations are only getting larger - Go clubbing as little or as much as you like
