Is there a chance for double bestiary?

Question

The double bestiary chance also counts towards the bounty task?

Let's say I kill someone and this activates; is it possible to finish the task faster?

Answer 1

I’ve just tested it myself to be sure, but unfortunately, it doesn't work like that—or I was extremely unlucky. I completed two bounty tasks, and both times the Hunt Analyser count matched the bounty task tracker, even though the Bestiary tracker showed more kills.

Quick disclaimer: if you want to try it yourself, watch out for summons. I suspect they might cause false positives due to differences in how kills are counted.

Answer 2

No. It does not. But still a great advantage when working towards speciifc bestiaries.

Think it like this: when you have less monsters of a specific kind on a spawn, lets say: honey elemental, you can use that to your advantage to have a lesser time to complete bestiaries in general.

For bounty tasks, unfortunately there is no advantages from the double bestiary proc.

Answer 3

No, the double bestiary chance works only for the bestiary. There is currently no way of speeding up the kill count for Bounty Tasks, you need to kill the exact amount of creatures it says.

Example: 200 Mutated Humans task, you need to kill 200 Mutated Humans to complete, there is no way of reducing the amount to less than 200.
