Still cannot see how "everyone" who wants it can gain 2 items.
Given the time frame.
 
The real issue for these epics is not going to be getting the quest or titan drops but the Super Elite components to make them.

No one can gain two bound items.

There is NO issue with getting these. Earn the bound Titan item, buy the recipe you want then get the SE items at your leisure. Zero issue.

As for the time frame, there've been 5 or 6 spawns in a day and a half and you got 2 weeks to do it in with Quest Hunter helping the Quest total.

why did not you add quests for the other seasonal titans (mirka, wyld, jolakott, ....) too like you did with the Gospa Perchta (Titan)?

One. You have exactly zero idea how much work goes into preparing for Christmas.

Two. You gain a Bound Epic from the Quest. No other way.

Three. This was a test run for the concept. Will we update other Seasonals in this manner? Perhaps but that is not guaranteed.

Yes you can participate but once your guild goes on cooldown, unless individuals get a secure all kills are lost when a titan dies and its start over again..

As it should be.

Ok. I misunderstood the original concept (CD) and this seems like a great compromise. Pretty much like if you were guildless. You can still get an epic but you gotta secure.

 Can someone explain this to me.  I just hunted the Titan using Quest Hunter and Titan Doubler buff.

 

I finished in 2nd place with 448 kills.  Why does my quest book show a different number of kills?  I have not hunted it before, this is my first time.

Well this is sort of on topic but not the Percha part,,except for this I think this is just a test and they are actually just watching for who is cheating on titans because theres no way anyone is going to get this done by 2025 otherwise. 

My questions are all about the personal tkp change,,,,EDIT Grim posted answers while I was typiing this up. so,,,


PLEASE change it so people who arent hopping guilds to get around cooldown ca earn their personal tkp and eventually their own titan item. IT really isnt fixing the titan hopper loophole.

Please give us a way to track our contributions on this. 

Please consider the bonus tkp for placing 2nd and below. 

Please consider how this will help in tidying up older titans while at the same time allowing players to save up and earn their own personal seasonal epics without hopping guilds to do so.

2nd most kills usually gets a 50% bonus, so the numbers are not adding up.

 

I am a pretty fast titan hunter, but cucu had teleport 200+ running, so that gave him a huge advantage.  I do feel something is messed up with my kills though.

So do I,, Just given the mass of people with varying levels of teleport,,,when I noticed her stats are way off a 225s and I had to get buffs to even try and hit her,, I had a chance to just take a look at everyone else.

Its kind of like the bad old days before teleport when people seemed to be able to have it anyway :P Either way I got one chance to see her the rest of the time a couple players simply killed it multiple times by somehow walking into the tile

Just hunted it again, took off Titan doubler and just used Quest Hunter.  I now have 955 total kills, so I got credit for 495 kills and I did not register on the top 5 kills, the lowest being 281.

 

So clearly my titan doubler buff was messing up my quest hunter.  

 

Lesson learned, but I wonder how the Cows have coded those buffs.  I suppose it is kind of complicated given all the restrictions.  But if your guild is on cooldown, Titan Doubler should just not work.  Oh well, I am almost 1/3rd of the way there.  4 more hunts should do it.

The two links I have posted show the kills not totalling a 50% or greater total but the player receiving the item regardless.

 

This is broken surely?

Remeber, all the kills are not displayed.  This titan has less than 4000 HP, so getting more than 2k kills is surely enough.

 

My concern though is if a guild has secured the drop, but then an individual hunts it, because of the quest, what happens when they get 50% or more?  They get the drop?

 

Surely this is going to be abused and players will be getting multiple drops, as I could kill this thing 3375 times, but with TItan Doubler, that is over 12k kills!!  Enough to secure it 6 times!!

Oh wait, now I see what you are saying.

 

The total from your screen shot is 4,389 and that does not even include other kills not displayed.

 

Yeah, something is broken.

Indeed.

 

He didn't get 50%. A fair chunk less in fact.

 

Shouldn't have dropped but it did.

Yes,, but then they have a personal cooldown. 

Watched this one as a spectator again. Literally someone in every tile but they are just too slow to beat the flash.

What is weird is, I thought the Titan's total HP was only 3375.  So why are people getting more kills than it has HP?

My kills were messed up when I used Titan Doubler with Quest Hunter.  I wonder if that has something to do with it.

double tap post. 

Still wondering if they will consider changing the personal TKP, the poor fellow who placed 2nd on the krumpers is going to be very disappointed

Yeah, what is up with that?

 

DId his guild secure, but with the new titan change it allows him to still hunt it?

 

Or was he the only one from his guild hunting it so it just assumed it was a personal kill?

 

If his guild is on cooldown, he should not be able to hunt it.

 

Seems there are some major bugs that need to be worked out.  Hopefully the Cows can address these issues, as I am very confused as to what is happening and why?  I would be very upset if I hunted a titan, and then got nothing for it.

Cramble, was your quest hunter level 200?  If it was then the numbers are correct -- you would have been getting 5 times your kills with QH200 ie 112  actual kills, and 4 times your kills with titan doubler 150/175 ie 4 x 112 = 448.

It was not 200....but it may have been 192 because of Buff Enhancer.  SO maybe you figured it out!!
