Trophies

[shangoose]

I think trophies should come from one or two star creatures. when you see a level one deer, it has no antlers but you can get a trophy that has many points. Please correct this as soon as possible. thank you.

For decorative purposes, it makes a lot more sense enemies dropped their proper trophy based on their level.

But could you imagine trying to farm a two-star trophy? They're already 1% spawn rate, now 5% drop rate? lmao.

The chance for getting a trophy is independent from stars for now.

I agree that trophies are too much common, but starred creatures are either uncommon or far more dangerous.

Perhaps a solution would be to have a scalable chance to get a trophy. For instance, 0-deers would have 5% chance, 1-deers would have 20%, and 2-deers would have 50% (vs 50% for all). To be balanced of course (how many trophies to craft a sledge hammer?).

Not all enemies can spawn leveled up.

a compromise could be, leveled trophies. level one, two or three trophies can be used to spawn the meadows boss (the name escapes me). but the trophies should not look the same and could be used for different recipes and certainly for bragging rights.

All I can think of is if someone's trying to farm a trophy from larger critters. I saw a 2-star troll once. HUGE NOPE.
I'm supposing that's what the obliterator is for, though while I have the mats for it, I haven't bothered making one yet.

Edit: to clarify, OP didn't specifically mention summoning trophies. I'm fine with those spawning like crazy. I can just discard them.

not sure that serpent, wraith, abomination, and others even have stars.

Yeah, I think Shangoose means that the mob should drop a specific trophy for its star rating, not the normal trophy, for decoration. Big game hunter ♥♥♥♥, do I have that right?

So like a 2 star troll drops one with brown skin, a 2 Star Deer would be like killing a 12 point buck, if I count the antler right, lol.

I actually understand two things: that, and why non-star mob should ever drop a trophy. The former would require more graphic assets, the later just a change in the spreadsheet (drop chances).
