Need Help: Beefalo Problem

[Lukao]

Hey, i'm playing DST with my friend and in the winter we forgot to kill some beefalos so.... day 53 and have a herd of 24 beefalos together, how to kill they all without dying?

Why do you want to kill them? Don't you have rabbits or other meat, and a razor to just shave the Beefalos?

[Lukao]

Because they try to kill me if i get too close.. also they are blocking the road to the marshlands (where me and my friend farm the tentacles seeking for tentacles spikes)

If you kill a beefalo with gunpowder, he drops the meat/wool/horn or all become ashes?

[Mickmane]

The heat will not last forever, but while they're agressive...

Built Tooth Traps and have the Beefalo run across when they chase you.

When Hounds come next time, lead them to the Beefalo.

Maybe you can have the Beefalo follow you all the way to the swamp and have some Merm kill them.

Frogs and Killerbees are also an option if you have them nearby and can get them to fight the Beefalo.

Spider Nests near the herd will get them to fight when Beefalo are aggressive.

And never forget friendly Pigs will fight with you.

If something is -killed- with gunpowder, it'll die burning, and stuff can get turned to ash. If something is just damaged with gunpowder, and then killed some other way, the loot remains unharmed.

Thanks Mickmane i will try the Merms first then recruit some pigs to finish the job :P

id say get a tree guard or two on them, if tallbirds are near u could get them in too, they do a lot of damage, killing hounds in 3 hits and theyre durable, both of them.
