Hunter base chest - respawn time?

[Abusive]

How long after you loot a hunter base chest does it respawn? I cant seem to nail down the right time to raid.

Also, any tips for catching a solar panel? i just missed my 1st hunter base putting out a panel. so i destroyed it for them - and i guess will kill them every day until i get one - hehe.

Think its better to kill hunter in the am, soon after they spawn? or later in the evening - after the day to "craft". I'm guessing the AI doesn't have to follow the same rules as the player. it probably auto-spawns items in inventory at a certain time.

thanks!

I have always went back on the third day after you raid them and everything has respawned... but I havent played much lately so that could have changed.

Hi,

Skr3w3d is right about 3-4 days is the best bet. Getting a solar panel is just RNG I have gotten 4 in the current world so keep trying ;-) The hunters don't really build it's an automatic system as far as I know but killing them every day does seem to slow them down and make them armor up as well.

I recently tested this. Typically every 3rd day as others have stated. If you want to be sure, then every 4th day. What you could do is raid one base every other day and simply cycle through them. In this manner you will know for sure that the bases will have loot in them every time.
