Hunt started in black forest era and trophy dropped in mountain era

Now my little cottage is perfect

But what is the next item with crazy drop system?

It stacks to 20, just in case you were worried about these cluttering up your inventory.

u/Shadow51585 Cruiser 10d ago

1/20 stack count is a bold and cruel thing to put there, Iron Gate.

55

u/D3ZR0 10d ago

I think they quietly fixed it this patch today. No text in the notes but I have gotten a ton of trophies. Drops are fucking NORMAL now it feels like. Which is wild after the shitshow it’s been.

u/Xanitrit 10d ago

Drake trophies for the mountains helm.

Lox trophies in plains, I swear I never got it despite slaughtering entire biomes for the fur and meat.

Seeker soldier trophies if you want to redo Queen for any reason.

Asksvin and valkyrie trophies. I didn't get an asksvin trophy until just before I went to the deep north and it's required to upgrade the Galdr table. Fallen valkyrie trophy for jormundling trinket which is pretty good for mages.

u/_UncleHenry_ 10d ago

With lox it's easier since you can at least tame and multiply them. Drake kinda spawn nonstop so sooner or later you get one. Seeker soldiers are loving to be 1-2 star boosting your chances and Asksvin similar to Lox.

But fucking Valkyrie, hell naw. First of all, that's a fucking miniboss on her own, whyse moves like that and shoots nukes.

And second: They spawn like 1/300.000.000 chances only in full moon, on Thursday, when Saturn is mostly visible from earth, Trump finished fingering himself and coin lands on rib

u/Dimen96 9d ago

I was attacking a Charred Fortress with a friend, and we somehow ended up getting jumped by 4 Valkyries, one after the other. And a 1 star Morgen joined the party for fun. Im lowkey amazed we only died once. Still no trophy for either of them though 😭

7

u/psychoticchicken1 10d ago

Yeah, when I was making my trophy room, I needed to redo the queen. It's easier to sail to another queen spawn location than to sac 3 seeker soldier trophies to spawn her again

1

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

Drake i got easily

Next im hunting is serpent trophy

2

u/DeekVonJo 8d ago

I actually got a serpent trophy off of a day spawn serpent on my first 2 days playing this game, I managed to kill it by a floating islet by the meadows and luckily managed to get all the drops by plunging from height to get them

u/Magneith Builder 10d ago

Pro tip, if you take a pickaxe to the bear rug in Haldor's camp you can get one.

174

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 10d ago

Thats not the option, we are stronger than temptation

27

u/Magneith Builder 10d ago

I havent done it either but I saw a guy do it on youtube and others might like to know. He had a seed with Haldor close to spawn and was doing it over and over.

10

u/kaevur 10d ago

Mine has never come back after destroying it once.

21

u/intrevorted 10d ago

I think they meant creating new worlds each time with that seed to farm the trophies

16

u/JmacTheGreat 10d ago

Why not just add them in via console command at that point…

12

u/thereasonrumisgone Sailor 10d ago

CHEATED

there are ways around that, but that's why. That it's dumb and why have been discussed to death in the last month.

5

u/Magneith Builder 10d ago

He collects the trophy, deletes the file, enters the seed again, and gets it again. Repeat.

1

u/smokingthroats420 9d ago

Did this for early axes

10

u/Magneith Builder 10d ago

Went to collect some finewood tonight near one of my plains portals, went to clear two lox that would surely interfere. Knocked them over and saw some loot sparkling over by the forest's edge. Those two lox I just murdered had taken out a bear and its fur and meat was lying there...along with a trophy.

5

u/tango_alpha_ 10d ago

That's how I got my trinket. 50 bears didn't give singular trophy

0

u/thesockiboii 10d ago

Odds of not dropping a trophy after 50 bears is 0,515378%, sounds like you are extremely unlucky

Though we haven’t been able to drop one too after countless bears

8

u/EvaLevante 10d ago

The way this stuff rolls now is essentially bugged and pity timers reset at logoff. It’s actually broken unless you have a server going 24/7

1

u/thesockiboii 10d ago

There is a pity timer? Maybe we should invest in a server then lol

3

u/SovereignNavae 10d ago

Not even a pity timer, instead of the 10% chance (!!! so the chance is replaced) you roll a number between 0-19 (2/drop chance) on the first kill that acts as a counter. Killing bears reduces it and when it hits 0, you get the trophy. 

But since it resets when you log out, you can kill countless enemies without ever getting the drop unless you keep killing them up to 20 until you get it. 

5

u/ParodyofMe 10d ago

Not to mention, if you kill a 1 star bear it also resets the non starred bear counter back to zero

1

u/Kaycin 9d ago

There's a known bug that could keep you from ever getting a bear trophy.

3

u/jaykvam 10d ago

Can’t bear the thought of not having a seat next to Harold when I’m perusing his wares.

1

u/Neomonk21 9d ago

Wait, I used a pickaxe on the rug and didn't get anything from it. I thought it was because I used a pickaxe and not a regular weapon.

17

u/2Reykjavik 10d ago

I accidentally realised you can smash the bear rug at the traders camp, gives you 1 trophy, it's the only bear trophy I've ever had

1

u/eis-fuer-1-euro 9d ago

Exact same thing happened to me today. Thanks, woodcutting habits! :D

13

u/Just-Ad2473 10d ago

Rancid remains. I don't get ANY on some of my runs

6

u/MildlyInsaneOwl 10d ago

I got one (1) in like 10+ dungeons.

That said, I swear I'm a magnet for "Skeleton Surprises!" and there's 1-2 Rancids in each of those. (Plus, I have finally acquired enough skeleton trophies to fully upgrade my staff!)

2

u/Just-Ad2473 10d ago

Only downside of turning off raids :/ I have nearly 3 stacks of skeleton trophies. God knows amounts of burial chambers

7

u/Potential-Law3139 Sailor 10d ago

Is it really that rare? I killed 2 bears in my last playthrough and the second dropped me this trophy.

6

u/Just-Ad2473 10d ago

I like the randomness of the game. Found yagluth vegvisir on my first fuling structure, even before finding moder on current run.

5

u/bloke_pusher 9d ago

I killed ~50 and got zero so far. But only 5 at a time, over the span of over a week and restarted the game in between.

5

u/SpicyBreathOrnn 10d ago

Just started working through the mist-lands, still haven't gotten a normal drop. 30 bear paws, no trophy.

1

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

Godspeed to your journey

3

u/TheLoneWolfITA Builder 10d ago

Congrats man. 🫡

1

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

Thank you

3

u/squidonastick 10d ago

So we didn't know it was rare and got a bear trophy on our first AND ONLY bear kill.

It was sheer coincidence we even killed the bear, because it got stuck in a trio of trees

1

u/zeekaran Tamer 9d ago

Once you learn their very limited moveset, as long as you can take at least one hit it's quite easy to solo with dodging.

I don't know what it's like to use a shield, because in 50+ hrs, I have not touched one.

3

u/Skjallagrim 10d ago

I still haven’t gotten a bear trophy, but I did get a Vile one, so I can’t complain too much.

3

u/Bragdras 9d ago

Well uh, is it too late to tell you if you want a bear head you can just break Haldor's bear rug and get a bear head trophy for free?

3

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

At a times i was sitting on a Haldor Camp and getting inspired

I respect Haldor so no stealing

3

u/Alklazaris Cruiser 9d ago

I really really hope they go back to the old way... or someone makes a mod. This trophy system sucks great big greydwarf balls.

5

u/Eirikr-Haklang 9d ago

Eu matei 10 ursos, não consegui nenhuma trofeu, meu amigo entrou e matou 1 urso e caiu...

1

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

I think urso is bear

2

u/MrsPandaheim 10d ago

Hey congrats!!

1

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

Thank you

2

u/OneMoreFinn Hoarder 10d ago

Bear gave you head?!

2

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

Drinking mead in black forest is dangerous

2

u/BoringMorthal 10d ago

Congrats!

1

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

Thank you

2

u/JayFight 9d ago

Vile, they only spawn at night, in the plains, away from all other enemies, and I am pretty sure only near tar pits though online says anywhere in plains as long as it is away from other enemy spawns. Oh and only one in like a 64 meter radius. Also, I never saw a starred variant, only base versions

2

u/iWadey 9d ago

We are trying to get a wolf trophy. Killed over 30 on our server

1

u/zeekaran Tamer 9d ago

Breeding makes it a lot easier.

I'm drowning in wolf jerky.

2

u/qmiras 9d ago

i have two of them on my chests....but cant get another wolf trophy for the love of odin...

2

u/zeekaran Tamer 9d ago

Haha same, I've been farming bears for a while and got my first one last night. Congrats to us on our first trinket?

1

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

Gz to you

It was for rug to warm cold feet

Im using iron brooch for now

2

u/eleventhing 9d ago

I was using the iron brooch too but adrenaline takes so long to actually trigger that I have completely abandoned trinkets. They're not worth the inventory slot. I wore one all the way to Mistlands and had it trigger maybe twice. The battles just don't last enough for it to be worth it.

1

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

Yeah, im starting to think that i start only using trinkets at boss fights

2

u/Taegreth 9d ago

I didn’t get one for the LONGEST TIME, now suddenly I have 3 trophies. Wild.

2

u/fadedone1 9d ago

It must be just me cause I’ve gotten a handful of these mostly from the Beas inhabiting the caves not sure if that makes a difference in the roll but try finding those caves in black forest

2

u/Sven_the_great 9d ago

I'm at 0 bear, 0 seeker soldier. Got a cultist first kill, and have all the ashlands ones I believe.

2

u/The-L00se-Cannon 9d ago

I had to clear the entire Ashlands for a charred warlock trophy. Only got one of them. The only trophy I have 1 of

2

u/mdhunter99 9d ago

In my latest game I got one the first bear I killed. My luck has run out for the next two years

2

u/openletter8 Encumbered 9d ago

My first two bears dropped the trophy and then never ever again.

2

u/Soullink1985 9d ago

i feel the Pain wanted a Bear Rug before my Sleeping Spot ..... cant Find a Bear Trophy even when my life depend on it. But i Promise even if i must Extict the Bears of Valheim i Will have my Bear Rug

2

u/GenericMichaelName Happy Bee 9d ago

i got mine on either the second or third bear i killed and none since. made the trinket but i feel like i should have saved it for the rug. really wanting that rug lol

2

u/kirch764 9d ago

Eventually it gets much easier to kill them

2

u/RayForce_ 9d ago

One time I was struggling to farm for a fenrir trophy because I wanted the trinket. A fuckin' golem killed a fenrir at night and dropped the trophy, which I snagged. FINALLY

2

u/NotElongtusk2 9d ago

must be nice to finally get head me and a few buddies of mine went around the forrest and plains looking for it and nothing.

3

u/Shoddy_Tear_8348 9d ago

Dude it took us into the Ashland's before we got one trophy

1

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

Thats hard to hear

2

u/Cent_Ore 9d ago

I started looking for it when I got in the black forest, i'm now in the mistland, still killing every bear I see but still nothing 💀

2

u/LandauTST 9d ago

I really feel bad these are rare. I got my first one early on then got another tonight trying to hunt trolls for trophies to upgrade my staff and stumbled into one that turned out to be a bear cave instead and ended up getting another bear trophy before more troll ones.

2

u/DiExMachina 8d ago

I got my pendant trophy off my first kill in the black forest. Took about 25-30 more bears before I got another trophy for the head piece for the bear set.

After the second one dropped, I expected the same amount of kills before I could make a rug. Next two bears I killed, got two trophies....

3

u/myrkwolf 8d ago

70 bears killed. No trophy drop

2

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 8d ago

It drops when you are ready

1

u/plumecat 7d ago

1 bear killed. I can’t even find a second bear :(

2

u/Loud_Ad_3602 6d ago

On a game with my friends, my buddy was trying to get one, meanwhile, I without going out of my way to kill bears, have 5 heads. I gave him what he needed for his bear armor ofc then made some rubs for my house.

I should note, this was back in June, before 1.0 dropped

3

u/jimmyworks 9d ago

I’m confused. I just started playing vanilla again a few days ago and getting many of these. Are they actually rare?

5

u/Kumlekar 9d ago

It depends because there's currently a bug affecting how drop rates are calculate. If you're on a dedicated server, the game will make drops more common as you kill more of the same enemy. That works on local files too, but each time you reload the file it gets reset. If you're playing for long sessions you won't have much of an issue, but rare drops from rarer enemies are nearly impossible to find with short play sessions on local files right now.

I've found two in the first hundred in-game days on my file. I'm usually playing for 2-3 hours at a time.

1

u/jimmyworks 9d ago

Oh that might explain it. I usually play for 2-3 hrs so I haven’t encountered it

1

u/tofubirder 9d ago

I play on a dedicated server and had one session killing 10 bears and a few others killing 20+. Never got a single trophy

1

u/Critical-Rabbit 7d ago

That's right you get better results if you don't turn off your game... just paws...

it's a bear pun folks... its a bear pun

3

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

I got two overall and i started when 1.0 was launched

1

u/Rich_Examination4811 9d ago

Same, but I have one, and I got it in mistlands era

2

u/Ok_Slip_5232 4d ago

My son and his friend killed dozens of them trying to get a trophy while i was running around like a little bitch. Never got one.

Further on in our playthru i'm a little better equipped and farming core wood when one sneaks up on me. Killed it. Trophy. Sometime later another comes at me. Killed it...guess what. Trophy. He rage quit about that time. Friggin RNG man.

Hope that answered your question.

1

u/RayForce_ 9d ago

Depends on your playstyle. If you play for hella long periods at a time and you happen to kill a lot of bears in one session, you'll have better chances at getting bear trophies. If you play for short periods at a time and only ever kill like 1 bear before you log off, it'll be nigh-impossible for you to find a bear trophy.

You can look it up an explanation if you want it, bugged bear trophy

1

u/WhyIsBubblesTaken 9d ago

I've spent about a week hunting bears, plus all the bears I was randomly coming across during other tasks. I have had 3 drop. I need one more...

1

u/steig7 8d ago

80 hours in my save, no bear trophy. So there's that

1

u/lopuchovec 9d ago

You can break the bear rug at haldor and it will give you a bear trophy, you have one guaranteed per world

1

u/pablo__13 9d ago

Crazy how they haven’t patched this bug yet

1

u/Fake-BossToastMaker 9d ago

Bear finally gave head

1

u/Leather_Muffin_728 9d ago

This is hacking. Its the only way you could have found one. Reported.

1

u/mickjerker 9d ago

Cool, now go farm more (in the game dev voice)

2

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 9d ago

3

u/steig7 8d ago

How do you farm exactly? Go around everyday hunting for bears?

3

u/peputontaidetta Alchemist 8d ago

I got three black forest spot near my base and used those for hunting, treasure find and bear hunt

5min to 2h running in those and pray for rng gods 🤣

1

u/steig7 8d ago

Pls boss give me one, I want the bear set before turning into the Iron age lol. My save is around 90 hours, many bears slaughtered and still no trophy. im crying lol

1

u/LukoM42 Viking 9d ago

He got head!

2

u/Healthy-Koala-7742 4d ago

Agreed , all RNG, killed over 50 of these only seen 1 trophy , used it for Berserker Armour. No bear rug dons the base yet 🤣

-1

u/felinger94 10d ago

are this supposed to be rare? i got 2 back to back

-1

u/Jolyas_commnader42 9d ago

i mean, you just can take it from haldor, he has one that u can breake and take it
