7 Hunts or 4?

[Mackenzie]

I saw from a source a few days ago that there was a way to turn a single field survey encounter into a total of 7 hunts of that monster. Saving as investigation would be the 1 + 3, but where are they getting the other 3 from?

what source ? ask the source ? link the source ?

maybe they are talking about bouncing investigation with other players? like u do invest and the other players get a copy of it in history and now they can save it and repeat it

This does not work, people joining an investigation do not get it in their field history.

However the one exploit i can myself think of is.

Start the mission with your friends, once the monster is close to death, disengage, now one of you disconnects their internet, this will segregate their hunt into its own instance, then the 3 kill the monster before joining the person who disconnected, repeat

So it really is only 4 then? Dammit I don't wanna spend 3 hours digging through my YouTube history.

I'll save your time, here is the youtube clip I saw it on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCXjI9rO2so&t=612s He starts talking about being able to do the mission seven times at about 3 minutes. I've tried it and it does work but sometimes (not sure why), investigations don't copy over to field study.

Ahh, you are a legend and a scholar, sir. Thank you. I will try it a few times and see if I can get anything consistent from it. Much appreciated.
