trophies are unattractive to farm

Huxide

so i've reached the point where i've done probably 95% of the stuff i wanted to do in the game if not more, and now im trying to get trophies......
finished master angler a while ago and i compared between both of them, found two problems:
1. drop rates are really low, while from fishing achievements you can sit there for an hour or five and with decent RNG get all the fish in the zone, the drop rate for trophies is so low you need at least half a day / an entire day for one trophy.....
2. no bigger purpose, aka no big achievement for getting all the small achievements..... so for all of that you get dyes but you dont get a dye (or even a title, after all that work.........) for getting all the small achievements.....


ZOS, please make these stuff actually worth trying to get.....

@DOVAHCREED I just sell all mine. Its just a waste of bank space along with treasure maps that don't even scale to your level.

You don't really sell trophies.

Trophies drop rates (some but not all) have been improved with orsinium

Very few have been changed, and most if not all refer to creatures found only in low level EP areas. I've lost count of the number of frost atronachs, imps, spriggans, bears and ogres I've killed with my 7 VR characters (3 of which are VR 16) and I've never gotten a single trophy from them.

On the other hand, since the IC update you can no longer transfer trophies to another character, so if you find that trophy you've been chasing for months on an alt, tough luck.

It's fine to sell collectibles. The achievement registers as soon as the item is looted. From there, they are just wasted space.

I've gotten Master Angler, and completed all collectibles. The latter is definitely MUCH harder. I imagine that achievement is more rare in game than getting the fishing title. Too bad there isn't a title to go along with the achievement.

With the recent changes, it's now even harder to get all collectibles. Alliance choice makes a big difference. I can't say if AD or DC has an advantage over each other, but both are better than EP. EP got the shaft big time on the collectibles.

I think they will eventually make these trophies relevant through housing.
