Yes, the thropies are reset - and I did not get a point for my highest kill.

Ok just thought you might be testing the system, seems reward points were given also as someone has the Huntmaster's Champion Title as well.
Thanks for looking into it
Thanks for looking into it
Did you double click on the Huntmaster?
Tried to double click him now, but got only that start message. No reward points given.
It will be activated when the publish goes world wide - to let all players have the same timeframe.
thank you
No, holiday gifts activate 12/01/14 per the publish notes, they will NOT activate when they go WW on Thursday.
Please let's not make the Huntsman Quest a tamer-centric quest, as some seem to want, that requires any specific skill set to accomplish.
They can give bonuses to many skills here, not make it tamer centric as you claim!
Animal lore can tell if it's big, tracking can track bigger animals, forensic can tell how big the corpse is and who killed it - its just a way to add depth into it.
exactly!
i didnt hear anyone say anything about making it a tamer only thing.
right now all ya need is a sword and one hit to kill anything on the list, its crazy silly how easy all the kills are.
what we are saying is they should add some of the existing in game skills to this to increase your odds.
lets take Trick or Treating for example.
if you have begging you get a boost, which im sure you will agree makes sense.
so why not have the same thing with this quest and give a boost to people who have animal lore or tracking or forensics?
from reading i was under the impression that you could only get the animals stuffed if you won that month?
just from what the Huntsmaster says when you dd clock him thats what i gleamed from him.
says something like if you have the highest placed animal at the end of the month you win and you get a rewards. you can also have the animal stuffed like they are here in the hall.
so i assumed that to mean that you had to WIN that month to get the animal stuffed.
has anyone tried to stuff an animal that they killed?

You can use a taxidermy kit on any filled hunting permit, it becomes a trophy.
Does this activate when the publish goes to all shards, or do we have to wait until the holiday gifts go active on 12/1 to have a chance at getting the plants?

You don't target the animal...you use the Hunting permit...not the corpse...I did say that didn't I? *looks up* Yeah...I said that. Silly Poo Bear 
Interesting phenomena though you've created :O)

Thank you for the report! This will be fixed before we go WW. Existing objects in this state will be deleted.actually no it wont.
this is what it does;
you target the animal with kit and it makes an unusable tile and drops it on the ground and you cant pick it up or use it.
@Kyronix you owe me 100k for the kit and 5k for the permit
Is there something specifically you are referring to? If you are having specific issues related to stability you should drop @Bleak a message. He's your go-to EC ninja
I'm referring to the constant crashing and client lockups in hostile areasIs there something specifically you are referring to? If you are having specific issues related to stability you should drop @Bleak a message. He's your go-to EC ninja
also lag is horrendous at times, usually if I've got more than 3 or 4 containers open its like wading in treacle...@Bleak ....Help!
It may have been noted somewhere else but the VvV Leader boards are not working correctly when there are multiple players in a guild. Values add to negative one (-1) for points and sigils returned for guild total are not correct.
On a side note, I think each town is worth 20,000 points which has created scores well into the millions for individuals and soon we'll have guilds with billions of points... Sure its neat to have millions of points but it might be easier to make sense of it if we just lost some 0's. Town win worth 20 points rather then 20k, then individual and combined scores will make more sense and going into the future will still reach into the millions but it will make more sense to my math challenged brains then guilds scores like 56465656.
It doesn't change the "value" of the points earned or reduce what people have done in VvV to this point, dropping the last three digits and rounding will make the scores more understandable and meaningful.
I love the score board and excited to see it in game. Participation in VvV on Origin has Spiked since its inclusion and it's a great addition.
Two things that may also have been noted is that is does not show weather a guild is returning Virtue or Vice sigils which is an important aspect. I agree with Tina if viewing the score board was universal in game not just for people who are participating (because it might get new people to enter) and last if there was a way to see your alliance total as well as your individual guilds. We are an rp kingdom that divides our forces by skill (Military, Spies, etc) and it would be nice if those kingdom totals could be viewed in total.... the Military's kills and the spies sigils into our Kingdom alliance total.
Of course as rping being our main motivation, I am going to ask if the recent fiction will be reflected in game, and there will be an ingame way to support Dupre's Virtue Force to fight off Vice as he was directed by Lord British.
Thanks and keep up the great work. As you can probable tell by the Origin score board our Kingdom is enjoying VvV and as it continues to evolve,
Thanks,

We are likely going to have to divide the "score" value by some factor of 10 to keep it from causing issues and fitting in the gump.
We are also still working on what our next step will be with VvV in terms of adding more depth and impact to the way battles are fought and the results of victory. The fiction does indeed serve as a jumping point and begin to open what avenues may be available for accomplishing what I mentioned. Thanks for the feedback!
I joined VvV last night and did some play.
so far its like Factions Light.
i did notice a couple things though, my thief, once i figured out how the sigils work (this took a while) but once i figured out what to do i went to steal one and it took me 6 attempts to steal the sigil and my guy was 100 skill natural.
that seemed strange to me, all this missing of the steal.
Am I noticing a slight amount of decay? As in the system has a finite amount of days it holds in memory?
Are we not allowed to call him the Jagermeister? Because I'm gonna.....
I think the panther should take up two squares... we are murdering baby panthers for it to be the size of a turkey.
have you ever seen a real wild turkey?
I must be blind, but, where the heck is the Huntsman on Origin? I am at the Ranger Guild but see nothing...?

Yes, we have wild ones all the time in our neighborhood. Yay suburbs....
I still stand by my comparison and would like the stuffed version of the cat to be larger. The bear at least upright looks reasonably respectable with its size. There is a big difference between a bird that is 25 lbs and something that weighs 80-200lbs. It is just my opinion having seen both up close and personal,... the kitties are definitely larger than the turkeys. Don't get me wrong... I'm still running from the toms during season as they can get downright intimidating to the point of attacking cars
its not the one in town, you have to cross the boat bridge to the mainland then take a sharp left and follow the water up about 2 screens Mal
I don't have a problem with crashing or lockup but I sure do have terrible lag with more than a couple of containers open, that's horrible.I'm referring to the constant crashing and client lockups in hostile areasalso lag is horrendous at times, usually if I've got more than 3 or 4 containers open its like wading in treacle...
@Bleak ....Help!
Personally I always felt that the big cats get ...... shafted in UO. Sure a cougar is not as large as a Panther... or even a snow leopard. But that's no reason to make all the cats small...
Now if we could just have Tigers in the Jungles... Lions in some area's... And the ever elusive Saber Tooth... As a rideable mount. We have CuSidhe but no real big cats for Tamers. Tons of wolves, hell hounds, CuSidhe and such.... need a comparable big cat.... and no.... hell cats don't even come close.

I really wish they would redo cu's. They look so terrible and angular.
Like the unicorns.
I agree..... they look weird. They could look so much better... but then that's how I feel about a bunch of things... most especially the poor Hiryu who got the short straw when they did the EC graphics. Poor thing is just hideous and looks like a plucked turkey.
I believe you'll be able to raid your Horns of Plenty to try to get coffee plants as soon as this publish is live on the other shards. The unanswered question at this point is whether or not the Horns of Plenty will recharge themselves, if locked down, after November 30th. They might only recharge themselves every year during the month of November and that might also require locking them down too. Would be nice to get clarification on this from Kyronix, Bleak, Misk, or Mesanna.
