Comments:
You may want to hunt here with one other, as there are a few surprises in store for you here. (I usually wear my higher AC gear when hunting alone in the swamp.) If you are below Level 40, beware of the Baskervilles Dog, they are aggros (and use ice arrows). The lower level animals -- toads and ducks, may flee when you attack; you have to search neighboring squares for them as you won't know which way they've gone. The Runaway Prisoners have been tough kills for me at the mid-40s levels (they are 55). You can get Cats Eyes from the Witches Cats, feathers from the Herons, Strong Collars from the Dogs, and occasional Barbarian Belts from the Aquatic Dwarfs. The Duck Hunters often give up sizeable sums of gold and an occasional Barbarian item. But it does take some time wandering around the labyrinth of paths through the swamp.
