Got a better idea, YOU show me one hunter that got mauled.. And deer are not likely to swing around and maul you. And btw, where do you get your knowledge of a   antique weapons from? Blunderbuss's loaded with grapeshot were absolutely devastating. That's why they were one of the preferred weapons of pirates, and criminals.

Quick internet search shows multiple instances of hunters attacked by both animals.

 

And on blunderbuss:

Crappy shotgun with short range, not a rifle.

 

Also remember, the blunderbuss in game uses stones for projectiles (basically gravel).

 

It's a step up from primitive weapons, but not a great weapon itself

No time for a "attack strategy" when you get jumped out of the shadows like the Dire Wolf did me. I don't mind a little buff to them, but really... Do TFP not understand how guns and arrows work??? People hunt mountain lions and Kodiak bears with bows and arrows and kill them with *one* arrow.. Not to even mention how many of the same were killed by single shot black powder rifles back in the day...

 

HA! Show me the person that shoots a mountain lion or kodiak bear WITH ONE arrow, while on the same height as the animal, and doesn't get mauled....hell, a whitetail deer that is shot through the heart with a broadhead will still run 50-100 yards before dying.

 

And the blunderbuss is not a black powder rifle, it is a very crappy shotgun that has crap range.

 

You got jumped by a predator and we're killed because you only had caveman or slightly better weapons, get over it.
