EDIT : now with poll

As it been discussed, here and in other topics, a local comm message with the latest elite kills would be a nice addition. This should only be visible to players that uses a special potion (or buff). This Potion could also go in the "special" tab from Trade Hun, making it a credit sink for the game.

Kind of a "Slayer's Tracking Potion"...

Ok. Maybe it has been discussed or not but I'll have my saying on this.

I would really .. really like to have a "latest elite kill" page just like HK.
The reasons would be that the elites are hunted as much as HK, and they have the same spawn rate, the same number of creatures/spawn, plus, the difference between elite sets and HK are not that much.
Adding all together, the difference now between and elite and HK is that you get a medal for killing an HK.

I for one don't see any cons for this. Since every elite has it's own quest kill, the HK have a bonus with the "Latest kill page".

Make it all even pls :) Help those trying to complete the quest not wasting precious energy.. or those hunting them.
You obviously need to kill more of them to have a complete set, making it already harder to complete a set.

Throw us a bone HCS :mrgreen:

I suggested in another thread on this topic (search) that this would be ok on local comm if it came from a skill or pot (stim). Otherwise no I don't like.

You are saying a local comm message like "player X killed the Elite Y" to be shown right after the kill ?

Not a bad one.. I like it that way to.

Yes - but only readable by those with a buff running or some such. I think it should be a credit sink to be able to sense this.

I like the idea but dont think it should be displayed on the front page, just the Map where the Elite spawns. ;)

Yeah, I know I like to say this game should be hard, but I'm weak enough to dearly want some version of this :-)

No, only HK's should have their own log for players to see.

but do you see a difference between HK's and elites ? except one is called Elite and the other HK...
Do the sets from the HK are made in some how different from the elites ?
Do they have a different respawn time ?
Do they have more creatures/spawn than the others ?

Anwsers .. no

Can you kill an HK just the way you can kill an elite ? Yes.. in fact, you need a group to kill the last elite ..

All I'm saying.. is they are so similar in many ways.. it's only the "naming" that is different. and since they are so similar, the elites should get a latest kills "something" just like hk...

at least that is what I think of this.

Do they have more creatures/spawn than the others ?

You are wrong about this one. Yes, they currently have 3 or 4 elites and 1 HK.

Also, I don't really agree with the starting idea, but some of the follow up ideas posted by others might seem feasible and reasonable.

Elite slayer Potion ! :D

I'm not sure, but I think it would be Elite Slayer Stim. Pretty sure stims are supposed to be like potions are in FS. I'm basing this off my random thoughts, and the fact that there are no stims in the Hub so far and even the Alpha stim is under med packs.

I was saying "more creatures per spawn" .. like every elite has the same number of creatures spawning at the same time just like hk do.
