Plunder Skulls from Plucking the Crow DON'T count toward "Plunder Skull Fanatic" Achievement

I think the title basically says it all. The 3 purple Plunder Skulls that you can earn once per day (per character) as a reward for the "Plucking the Crow" quest DO NOT increase the counter on the 100 skulls needed for the "Plunder Skull Fanatic" achievement, which says under requirements, "Earn 100 Plunder Skulls." So I guess we don't "earn" quest rewards or something. :(

I checked my counter in achievements on this right before turning the quest in, and it hadn't budged after I turned it in. I also tried opening them, and that still didn't budge. Sad panda.

    Inconsequential really. Most players earn thousands of skulls. Put it on the list of fixes for next year if they decide to bring the boss back.

    I suspect you're over-estimating just a tad.

    Sure, there might be a handful who farm that hard, but "most"?

    (also, if there's a 3m cooldown between skulls, it would take 50 hours of continuous farming to get 1000 skulls)

    Yep. I’d expect most players get dozens of skulls, especially since people don’t play every day.

    My experience, rewards from Plucking the Crow very mediocre. I can get the same rewards running any public dungeon solo, so to me it's not worth it. My opinion, not worth it, unless there's an achievement associated with it (which I don't think there is) and you are big on completing those, which I am not.

    Why yes, I am earning thousands of skulls. However, I'd like to be able to get that specific achievement on my many, many characters, so I can unlock specific titles and rewards. Having an extra 3 skulls per day, per character, cuts down on my farming requirements per character (see notes by other posters regarding skull cooldown timers, and needed farming time due to them).

    Not an issue as over the course of the festival most people can easily get 100.
