In a partial effort to address the relative imbalance portrayed on this mud between RP, PK and Justice actions, the scalp reward system is changing. This was discussed by all Staff and Watchers and we came to this decision as one. Effective immediately (or as soon as we can get all of the clan code changed) the reward scale is as follows:
7 qps - Fade or Dreadlord head, scalp or bit
7 qps - Severed head of a wanted criminal
5 qps - Severed head from Cross Race PK
5 qps - War scalp of a wanted criminal
3 qps - War scalp from Cross Race PK
3 qps - torn bit of a wanted criminal
2 qps - torn bit from Cross Race PK
1 qp - chunk from Cross Race PK
Butcher/signmaker code will also be changed not to \"waste\" chunks to promote more sharing.
