How long until hunter loot inside their bases respawn after raiding them?

And if I keep killing them back to back, will that alter their loot?

Here is what I have seen:

(1) I have found the loot re-spawn rate inside their bases to be 3-5 game days.
(2) If you kill off the hunters at their base day after day, their loot will not re-spawn.

I always wait 5 ingame days just to be sure.

Ah thanks! Yeah was assuming it wouldn't respawn if I constantly kept visiting, was thinking maybe after they fix their door it would lol And is it RNG with the kind of loot they have? Scored a solar panel once, was wondering if it had to do with maybe letting them recover longer?

RNG mostly, the high ticket items are hunter's jackets and solar panels. I don't think it has to do with longer recover...but I could be wrong :)

Oh one more thing, the whole waiting 5 days; that like not breaking in or is it including not killing them like say they retaliate after, just take the beating and until loot gets respawned?

I think you can continue to kill them, just have to leave their base alone. Oh, I alwys kill them when they retaliate, you don't need to stop doing that.

I tested this a while back. For 10 days I killed off the hunters at one of their bases, and checked to see if there was any loot inside their base. Nothing was there for those ten days. Then I left them alone for three days and checked again, and there was loot in their base.

I kill them during their retaliation, they never actually start their attack on my base so they respawn the next day and start their retaliation all over again...and again, and again. I'm not killing them at their base though so maybe that makes a difference.

Killing them before they have a chance to actually attack your base makes them come again and again? Or you're just talking in general? Just wondering since after I kill them at their base they retaliate and when I kill them while they are actually hitting my base before they run off, they go into "peace" mode after that.
