Hunt 2.9: Clues Now Reveal Two Extractions

Why this matters more than before

With extractions hidden by default (see the 2.9 hidden-info page), you no longer spawn knowing where to leave. The two extractions a clue reveals are often the only exits you will confidently know before the final fight. That makes your clue route and your escape route the same plan viewed from two ends.

How to prioritize the revealed exits

• Distance from the bounty compound — the closest revealed extraction after you pick up the token is usually your first candidate, because every extra meter of crossing is exposure.
• Approach safety — a revealed extraction sitting beside an active fight or a known enemy rotation is worse than a farther one with clear lines. Reveal does not mean safe.
• Contest risk — extractions freeze their 30-second countdown when contested, so a revealed point near the map center sees more traffic than one on the edge.

When to ignore the revealed extractions

The two points a clue reveals are not always convenient. If neither is safe or close after you grab the bounty, do not force a long crossing toward them. Instead move toward a Supply Point or Scout Tower for a Scouting Map, which can surface a better exit before you commit. The solo route guide covers how a lone hunter should treat revealed extractions differently from a squad.

Practical loop

Hunt clue one, note the two exits it reveals, move to clue two along a line that keeps one revealed extraction in reach, then decide your final exit only after the token is in hand and you have checked immediate threats. Treat the revealed extractions as a shortlist, not an order — the map gives you options, and the fight decides which one survives.
