Beserker Trophies

[morrokain10587]

Do they exist and I'm having really bad RNG getting one? I really want one for my ballistas

They have existed but the recent patches may have changed the drop probability.

These do exist, but they seem to be exceptionally rare. I wouldn't bank on obtaining one any time soon, if at all - over the course of many, many logged hours in Valheim, I've seen Berserker trophies drop twice.

Strongly recommend learning to combat them without relying on base defenses. Frost arrows can be a major help in this regard.

I do think that engagement style has a correlation to trophy drops anecdotally, but in this specific case I've run the gauntlet. I've gotten 6+ 1 star beserker kills from raids (4-5 from arrows and 1-2 maybe from melee when considering there is a mini boss as well.)

And when considering the amount of beserker kills from fuling villages both in melee and from the bow I'd say it's a very rare drop.

world most rarest is green skele, stone golem and wraith trophy, almost never drop to me,

After 3K hours accumulated among 10 characters I have 10 rancid remain trophies, 6 golem and 2 wraith - with many night hunts in the swamp to finally get those 2.

In my current game I have 3 berserker trophies, all from clearing out villages. RNG can be frustrating. After 170ish wraith kills I finally got a trophy. Now that one I was beginning to doubt their existence.

3k hours, 1 Berserker trophy and it is a silly tiny trophy. The golem trophies seem to fall for me only when I melee them. This current run through I got a rancid remains trophy off the first one I killed, and another maybe 20 crypts later. I have noticed that there are a lot of those green skeles in crypts now, sometimes more than one per crypt in vanilla. Wraith trophies also pretty rare. I am going to ck my other saves and see what the totals are. Curious.

I noticed wraiths drop trophies little bit more often than they used to, but can't find rancid lately at all... and berserkers are rare, but they still do. And I didn't even know Golems drop trophies until recently I got my first one after so many hours

I have a 800 day run where I have looted hundreds of chambers and still haven't received the rancid trophy. I hate it :)

[morrokain10587]

Yeah rancid remains are rare in and of themselves so I can see how getting that trophy would be difficult.

I must be lucky though, because I have ~6 or 8 of them and 7 wraith trophies and 6 golem trophies.

It did seem like melee increased the drop rate but I will take the word of the person who said nothing effects it.

I felt the same way about drake trophies. I seemed to get more when I 1 shotted them with sneak bow attacks.

The only other thing that compares in my 1100 hours is cultist trophies. I cleared 10 or 15 caves and only got 2. 1 for the fenris hood (which I only got after clearing the plains because of how rare the trophy is) and 1 for ballistas whenever I decide to clear the howling caverns.

The frustrating thing about beserker trophies being rare is they show up in 2 raids that are fairly common. I never needed to worry about wraiths or stone golems in raids and by the time rancid remains were in raids they were trivial to defeat. Beserkers cause a lot of damage to my walls.

I have 1700 hours in game and I have maybe 3 or 4 Rancid Remains trophies and about the same for Berserkers. Fenring trophies are also pretty rare.
Speaking of trophies I wish they had different ones depending on the number of stars. Having a 2-star Troll, Berserker and or Fuling head to mount would be cool. Mount those big red heads up as a warning to their kin to stay away! lol

[Foxglovez]

Actually it is the Fuling shaman trophy that is tiny, such a disappointment.
Checked out my 3 main saves and I have 1 Berzerker, 7 rancids, 3 wraiths and 5 golems. Three of the golems came from the same spawn point, one after the other by only melee. Whackawhackawhacka, parry, whackawhackawhacka. (Two of those rancids I got in the last couple days on the new save where rancids are in nearly every crypt, several having multiples.) I might have gotten more Berzerkers if I spent more time or had more events pop in the plains.

[malcolm_cline]

I have 2 each of the golems, rancid skellies, berserkers, fuling shamans. Also several wraiths and maybe 1 Fenring. Berserkers I get by standing on a rock and attacking a village. fire potion for the shamans and Bonemass for everything else. After I kill off the berserkers with cold arrows, I can jump down and melee everything else with Bonemass active. I have the trophies from the Hildir quests as well.

[caroraim]

lol...I grinded for the rancid remains trophy over a skeley spawner in a crypt for ever with no luck. I must have killed a hundred skeleys doing that, never mind how many I killed in the course of play. I finally got one to drop in a skeley surprise or some raid event. Only trophy harder to grind than the berserker for my play through. Good luck!
