1980 / 30 = 66 seconds to tank the hogglo from front to front with rifle

2100 - 67.5 = 2032.5

2032.5 / 45 ~= 45.17 seconds to tank the hogglo from front to front with pistol.

This does not make any sense. First of all no matter what gun you are holding the Hogglo is going to reach you at the same time. Now if you are talking about range (when it comes into range) then the numbers would be reversed. Or are you talking about time to get to the player from when it comes into range?

Rifles generally have a longer range than pistols, so you can shoot at a mob when it's further away from you. I think that's what he's explaining there.

1st: i do understand, that hunting such mobe like atrax / atrox youngs to old it`s 100 % sure, that range is important, as it`s nice to slash out 100 of mobs hp, before it reaches you, so it`s less armor and fap decay. (this is the same for mobs that are up to 1 k in hp)

Now that about mobs that are stronger: Atrox old alphas / and up, Auruli Soldien and up, big Longus, and so on.
To my mind range doesn`t play a big role in hunting them, as the few 100 hp wont matter that much before it reaches tou.
What matters more to my mind is a great fap / armor, loads of HP, and nice defencive skills, just to stau alive, while killing the mob.

So in the end it`s hp and defencive skills matter more than range.

Any comments on this?

small mobs - small gun
big mobs - big gun
