I've found that 3 B2 mages in 5K pop provinces with taxes set to zero seem to work the best.
Is this actually the case in dom3? I remember talking with... I think it was Folket and Boron and they were saying that in dom3, wandering mobs of like 10 or more blood hunters accompanied by patrollers was the way to go. Pretty sure they were both assuming a growth scale, also. Never tested it myself as I rarely play blood...
Not sure about 'wandering' mobs... every time they move is a turn lost which could have been blood hunting. I'd suggest a mob of blood hunting mages only move after population has dropped below 4000.

"B1 = 50% chance of successful hunt, for drn+1 slaves
B2 = 90% chance, drn+2 slaves"

Is this info in the manual? If not it would be great to put in the FAQ.

Dousing rods increase blood level by two for blood hunting purpose only. So level 1 blood mages with dousing rods are the most cost effective way to blood hunt as they now hunt as a blood 3 mage.

The dousing rods are worth forging for level_1 hunters, but the boosters are not worth forging for level_1 hunters.
