List of critters divided into tiers. Some critters are more or less difficult, but basically speaking, if you're in the middle of the rank bracket, you can probably hunt most things in Tiers 2 - 4 with some chance of survival.
Below is a hunting guide to [[Forfedhdar]]. Some creatures are more or less difficult, as noted in the notes area. While remote, Forfedhdar in general provides a smooth hunting experience, with many opportunities for those who practice locksmithing or skinning.


Note that there are no Tier 1 creatures in [[Forfedhdar]], meaning adventurers will need to seek adequate training elsewhere before coming to Forfedhdar. Also the Trolls, Ogres, and Gryphons provide opportunities for skinning and locksmithing.
