This question is to the Devs:

Is the fact that cows in faction bases (or at least the 130K one) give hides on death an implementation you didn't mention on the Changelog or is a weird bug?

I mean Gecko Hides are the main thing for making Tier-1 armors so brahmin hides aren't as important, but I was just wondering.

Maybe it's me because I just wake up but question dones't make any sense.

In cave brahmin also gives hide. Of course you need to "ask" for it with bullets.
And it turns hostile after respawn.

Bug or feature, now that is a question.

Please don't make bramhin respawn in base, too easy level up killing brahmin in a pen.

Wasteland must be harsh

It is harsh, they respawn and attack you. Try that with 130k and you'll have a nice foursome.

Why not? You paid 130k for a base, then you deserve those respawning brahmin. Obivously atm those brahmins want revange at you for taking their hides

How long does it take roughly for the brahmin to respawn?

5 min, I believe. I've got a base next to Junktown and went to NCR, went back to the base and they were respawned.

So really short respawn time...

Sorry I didn't complete my thought on the first post (edited now).

I meant the fact that they give hides on death. This isn't a question about getting XP from them.

Oh yeah, My gang mates farm hides now.. :|

I think its perfectly natural...
Like the fruit/fiber plants in base. In fact, imo the trees should be choppable, and you should gather electro parts/junk from the broken down computer. No, seriously.
Should have a longer respawn/should give more CD, so its not a primary gathering point, just when you desperately need a safe place to get just one, just one piece of wood etc. It would be great.

if you think 80 xp every few minutes is a good xping solution you need to get outside in the wastes once in awhile.

Let's have an example, Ziven. If one's got many brahmins in the pen, he's going to level fast. Brahmin's respawn time is 5 minutes, as @iiitachiii said. We're gonna kill in example one brahmin every 10 seconds. That means, we're gonna have to get 30 brahmins in our pen - if we kill one every 10 sec, then after we finish, they already begin respawning. 10s * 30 = 300s. 300s/60 = 5 minutes.
We won't have to wait - only these 10 seconds. When a brahmin gives 80 xp, we're gonna have 6*80xp=480xp every minute, 4800exp every 10 minutes and 28800xp every hour. 210000xp which we need for max level, we divide by 28800. 210000/28800 equals about 7 hours.. Imagine that we've got 60 brahmins in our pen and we kill one every 5 sec - that's gonna be about 3,5 hours to get max level! Now, we also get hides from this. 7 hours = 420 minutes = 25200 seconds, killing a brahmin every 10 sec = 2520 hides. Every 5 sec = 5040 hides.

Correct me if I'm wrong. Sorry if I made mistake
