Yeah, we would really like a Trophy skill. I hope to be able to get this in the future, but we have a harvesting mod to get first . The corr forum has been lacking in Dev participation (TH is a busy guy after all) this week, so I will wait until things pick back up and post acomment thread about this over there.

For now, one way that you can make some fake trophies is this:

1) make a partition in your house from bookshelves turned around backwards (and maybe named 'a partition' instead of a bookshelf) and maybe stacked on top of themselves -- well any wall-like furniture item will work.

2) get an artisan to make you some bone armor segmants and name them 'a plaque' or maybe 'a fearsome durni taken down on corellia with great loss of life'

3) buy some critters off the bazaar or from your local BE - on my server people are selling all sortsBE creaturesfor 6k on the bazaar.

4) now position the creatures so that most of their bodies are behind the partition -- that is, if you are in front of the partition, only the heads should be visible to you. Now move the creature up to the appropriate height.

5) now position the plaque so that it is against the surface of the partition and around the neck of the creature -- that is, so it looks like the creature's neck is mounted on the plaque.

This only really works with smaller creatures (well maybe you can tile armor segments to make one bigger plaque). I've also tried doing it without using bookshelves to form a partition, just by pushing the creatures as far back into the wall as possible, but the problem I run into here is that you can get about half of the creature pushed back into the wall, but after that you can't push it back any more. The 'partitions' let you push the creatures back far enough so that only the necks and heads are visible.

OK - definitely not as cool as the tropy idea, but a decent workaround until we get trophies.

I Love it!!

I have been wondering what to do with the extra book cases i have lying around. I'll be trying this also tonight.

Thanks - I would like to take credit for this idea, but it was inspired by one of the galactic home show pictures (where the creator has mounted a fish on an armor segment to make a mounted fish):

I just figured the same could be done with smaller BE pet deeds, but the problem is moving all but the pet's head and neckbehind the wall -- hence the bookshelves.

And yes, their heads to bob around after they've been mounted, which I find to be a very nice touch!
