Here's something I was thinking about, and thought to get your imput. Would it be feasible to add an additional upgrade to the scout tower and include a guild titan kill history for logging purposes. I understand this is currently done through actively using screenshots, but for ease of use and game fluency, this upgrade should be doable. What are your thoughts???

Yeah, this has been needed for a while. A shame you put it in suggestions where it will get no love :(

Only thing about the 3rd scout tower the concerns me is the cost. Not that gold sinks are a bad thing, but it wont be much of a gold sink if no one uses it because it cost as much as the endurance shrine for something you can do with screenshots for cheaper :?

This would make tracking down kills much less of a pain in the rear. I am pretty sure that even if the gold cost is high, quite a few guilds will use it.

Yep, I am completely behind this. The FSHelper does it in a fashion at the moment provided your online at the time and constantly refresh the scout tower page. This however is not really effective considering Titan Hunting is all about focusing on the hunt and not loading additional pages to use up precious bandwidth for moving/killing.

I don't even believe this should incur any additional cost for a lvl 3 scout tower, this should just be available as a link under the guild menu as the TKP rewards are.

Additional changes for titans =
- Make the titan spawns appear on doors/quest icons, or block those squares (SS2 currently does this)
- Winning guild gets the Titan drop no matter what % they achieve (SS2 currently does this)

as someone who logs all the TKP for my guild, its a royal pain in the ass to have to go back and try to get titan results from a few days prior, if no one remembered to take a screenshot

would be worth a lot of gold to me to be able to do this

I don't see any downside to this. Great help for those that use it and a good gold sink.

Not sure why this idea doesn't get more attention :? Even when posted in the general feedback section there weren't many replies, and certainly none from the cows.

though i havent titan hunted in awhile, i will soon start back up. and yes checking how many kills you have at the end is lame. no big deal if your the only person form your guild killing it. but myself and my wife normally do it as a team. instead of possibly loosing a few kills all because you checked how many kills you have

Great idea if you are gathering your own tkp to buy an epic.

if the guild has the scout tower, there should be something implemented on the map that shows the number of kills of the titan on the page and refreshes as you move on the map. having it above where the creatures show up in that area. that way players do not have to go to the guild page or other ways to know how many kills the guild has done. maybe have it done as a fallensword helper option.
