Remember the first time you killed a rancor? Or when you soloed your first Kimo? I would really like to see a feature added that would allow us to Mount the heads of our "trophy kills" It would be nice to make it a ranger specific skill, since it is a very "rangery" kind of a thing. I would love to see that in the game at some point. I am sure things will be very different after the CU, and soloing these big game beasts will be far less likely. But, that would make having these trophys even more special. Imagine going on a guild hunt and taking down a GDK. How sweet would it be to have the head of that monster hanging in your guild hall?!?
Just wondering your guys thoughts and additions on this topic.

Don't they have mounted heads in Jabba's Palace? So either the code (for one style anyway) is in the game or some dev embeded creatures in the walls and took away their animation.
Would make for interesting decorations. Of course Novice rangers would have to start out by mounting the heads of kreetles and dwarf nunas.

/agree there could be a certain level of creature you could mount, depending on your level in the affecting tree. It might even be nice if they put it in the camping tree to give a little more substance to that branch. (not that makin camps aint cool!)

heres an idea
novice ranger can only take the head of small tiny creatures and masters can take the head from any creature.
along with the normal loot and resources you can take from the creatures, you(rangers) also get a chance for your loot to contain a creature head (non skull).
so if your hunting rancors, you can harvest meat, loot rancor teath, and also loot a rancor head froma rancor you just killed. You wouldnt get loot every time just like now and in this ideayou wouldnt get a rancor head every time either. it would be rare'r then rancor loot (or other creature loot), but not by much.
so now you have this rancor head in your inventory. you cant drop or trade it.you have 2 options you can do with it. make it a mounted head or make it a skull.
to make it a mounted head, you would need dathomir wood or something for the back part to put the mount head on. you would need possibly rancor meat, hide, bone and what ever else you need to do this. once you have all this stuff, you drag it onto the rancor head and it turns into a mounted rancor head that you can drop or trade.
to make it a skull, you would need something like maybe some type of chemical or something to take all the meat and stuff off of the skull, or perhaps foraged worms or bugs and then some other stuff that makes sense. drop all that onto the rancor head and it turns into a rancor skull that you can drop or trade.
and then some other stuff that makes sense. drop all that onto the rancor head and it turns into a rancor skull that you can drop or trade.

some creatures don't have any animation in buildings. I plan on buying several low-level ones and mounting them in my Hunting Academy.

wow that is a really well thought out and interesting idea. I know this topic has come up before, but since the devs have become so proactive lately i figure we might actually have a shot at gettin somthin like this.

What I'd like is a counter that keeps track of what type's of creatures you have killed and how many of them.
