I know Flinter was trying this for ages but even he has now admitted he still has no idea how it works. +1 on getting your first diamond I don't believe anyone knows how the spawns work (as it should be) but I have never had any luck with killing a 4 and that turning to a 5 and 8 into 9. Others are never be diamond with level 4 or 8 I know. Those with level 4 and maximum weight/trophy interval can be 950 diamond.
+ I think Blackbuck, Wildebeest, Kudu and Gensbok is easiest animals for diamond cause they have some level 4 diamond. Keep going your hard work than that may work. But you know, there are at least one diamond for each animal in your map. I've kill tons of Mythical red deer at one need zone every day but they always came back as Mythical one again. I've never met diamond one like that way. If you take the animals that has just below diamond level like 8(Mythical) or 4(Easy), that will proooooooooobably respawn to 9 or 5 level one. I've heard somewhere that kill high level makes high level respawn.
But take care of your reserve, finding many need zone and big herd may can help you. Originally posted by lactualy:First of all, congratulation for your diamond bro! Basically finding diamond is all about luck.
