Focus: Enrage, Friends, ammo weapons, traps, and hunter tempo
Enrage must be planned, not accidental
Karnok boards are strongest when Rage windows line up with real payoffs. Karst, Wolf, Spear, Shotgun, Tent, and Bear Trap can all work, but the board needs a clear reason to trigger Enrage at the right time.
Friends and ammo solve different fights
Friend boards scale through repeated support and tempo, while ammo weapons are better at front-loaded pressure. Karnok can use both packages, but late boards should invest in one primary kill plan.
What to watch in videos
Study the moment Enrage turns a fight. Good Karnok footage shows whether Rage is charging weapons, protecting the board, or simply happening too late to matter.
