Item Talk:Draigoch Scale

Thanks for the fix Ring... -Lanpharn (talk) 00:53, 22 November 2011 (EST)

Is this a trophy item dropped by Draigoch? Is it obtained by looting the corpse of Draigoch, rather than opening a chest? If so, we should add a section indicating it is dropped by it, and categorize it as "Trophy Items". RingTailCat (talk) 01:56, 22 November 2011 (EST)

I am not sure what is considered a "Trophy item", but the term seems to be a bit too broad if I see that even Item:Dark Emblem of Spirit is apparently a trophy, even though it is a coin that drops from a chest. It doesn't say "Trophy" on its tooltip in-game! I'd say task items (the description actually states they are trophies) and housing items might be considered such. Draigoch Scales are dropped by the chest, as far as I know. People have to roll for it, since there's only a few of them every takedown. It is not a thing everyone can loot. --Ravanel (talk) 04:53, 22 November 2011 (EST)

Sound like it is a Category:Quest Reward Items, perhaps a sub-category, for Random Quest Reward or whatever is standard for Skirmish or other raid rewards obtained by looking a chest. I believe Category:Trophy Items should apply to those things looted from a corpse of a defeated enemy. It seems to me that the raid chest is more like a chest or backpack or corpse (of an adventurer). Perhaps verbiage along the lines of "The Draigoch Scale is a random award for raid instance completion." would explain where the item comes from. RingTailCat (talk) 11:50, 22 November 2011 (EST)

Maybe under Crafting Items or Resources? I think in the AH, it comes up as a crafting item of some sort if I recall correctly. Definitely not a trophy - that implies a taxidermist item to me. Maybe a Quest Reward item, subcategory crafting? --Lanpharn (talk) 12:43, 22 November 2011 (EST)

Things you take to a taxidermist are Category:Barter Items, e.g. Item:Undamaged Warg Corpse. Note task trophies like Item:Spotted Ear and vendor trash like Item:Soft Brown Fur, both of which use the word trophy in their descriptions. RingTailCat (talk) 13:22, 22 November 2011 (EST)

The Draigoch scale drops from one of the 4 chests after you defeat Draigoch. You do not loot the body at all. You use the scales to make one of the dragon cloaks, which I cannot seems to find on here, I shall keep looking though.... (Majikk17 (talk) 11:49, 4 May 2012 (EDT))
