skulls

What's the best tool to use to get the skulls? I haven't seen 1 in quite some time. Is it bugged?

i just use pickaxe or yog meat sword

Ok. Thanx. I'll try that.

on players, or npcs, or both?

i use steel poniard only , no god weapon before the poniard hit on human npc .

never try on player i think its same issue .

(poniard = only hide and sometime a skull , no trash loot like human flesh)

I'll try that. I usually hit with a god weapon 1st.

Not sure if others have experienced the same thing, but i have found that if you harvest a corpse with an altar tool (to get unblemished meat, essence or hearts), you can't get a skull from the same corpse anymore, even if you switch to another tool.

So its either you harvest to get an altar item or a skull, not both.

I've been getting skulls after I've hit the corpses for the yog flesh , so unsure what's happening either my end or yours

Okay, i have just done some testing on harvesting npcs with only the religion tools, also tested religion tools and subsequently with hatchet too, harvesting 50 x npcs each test... no skulls dropped in both tests.

When i switched back to only using hatchet to harvest another test batch of npcs, resumed getting lots of skulls again.

Wondering if harvest rate affects the skull drops? 'Cos those private servers i tested it on are set at 1x and 1.5x harvest rates.

For those of you who managed to harvest religion materials + skulls from the same npc corpses, what type of servers do you play on and with what harvest rates?
