You can pharm Fame pretty efficiently with bow and arrow. 0 archery skill for starters, then one arrow in each leg of a Z, finish with head shot. Pick up the arrows and repeat.
Cred: Youtuber Luthaias

The other, more difficult is headshotting with arrows from 80m away. ~10 points every time you make it.
Cred: Youtuber RayKit

Hello :),

There are a few options here. Many actions give FP, even if you don't notice it right away. Daily survival already offers a good basis for permanently obtaining FP. This may not seem like much at first, but it is definitely noticeable, especially when the gameplay is more active.

Crafting also offers a lot of FP. For example, I only make my own ammunition (and sell the ones I find), which saves a lot of FP through production and can therefore make up a large proportion even over a short period of time.

As mentioned, killing puppets is also an option. The further away and more accurate the shot, the more glorious the result, if you want to call it that.

In conclusion, a lot of actions add fame points that are primarily concerned with survival on the island. Craft items, build campfires in the cold and for cooking, survive everyday life on the island and craft items, this will sooner or later earn you the fame points.

when it comes to head shots on puppets with an arrow, does it matter what bow you use, do you get the same fame using a compound bow vs say a 35 lb beginner bow you craft yourself, it`s certainly easier using a compound bow.

Definitely compound bow, for sights, zoom and adjustable draw weight.
Mine is at 115 lbs now.

It does not matter in terms if FP gain.

Is your archery skill high? You get less fame if you are already skilled at it.
Are you on a singleplayer/normal server?

I have 0 archery skill (well, now I imagine I have some points since I killed a dozen puppets with bow)

Some puppets I kill like described above -2 leg shots -1 head shot.
Some strait with a head shot...

Seems like nothing different than killing them with a spear or w/e

Would throwing stuff at them have better impact???

I am just trying to reach 125 fame to buy base expansion lol

Ok I need to investigate. Maybe this was nerfed recently (last 3-4 weeks)?
What kind of server are you on?

It's the same, kill them. But if you use a skill at 0 you will raise the skill too and it should be faster.

Btw there are many ways.

KIlling puppets from range, sniping w/ rifle or bow
Killing puppets
Stay online
KIll other players
and more 8-)

This. insetto is on point

Being online and surviving is the only way you're going to get the FP.. You can't 'plan' FP grinding/farming.... it'll just happen

Go to LOI's that spawn a lot of puppets, like military bases, military bunkers and the airports... take a quiet weapon and shoot them from outside their LOS cone and aggro range... someone suggested a bow with crappy arrows.... thats a pretty good idea if you're a good shot with the bow or even crap shot and you're leveling archery because the sharp stick arrows are cheap and don't even bother recovering them

yeah goot tip.
And if you headshot them from distance you can earn up to 10 FP each time.

Crafting ammo is another way, if you have Medium Eng. Skill.

Devs should add the hunting minigame for earning FP.
Each time we kill the animal we should get a reward in FPs.
