Some pursuits are locked and need certain engrams to be unlocked. Add this? The 'type' can be removed, it's already clear that we have a list of Pursuits and Daily Pursuits.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jochenbilderbeek1980 (talk • contribs) at 10:47, 13 October 2018‎.

Sure, I'll change the template. The Wayward Wolf (talk) 12:14, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
Great! What about the order of pursuits? With the daily we can put them in order of appearance until they start repeating. I think it's in that order now, expect the last one which is on top now.— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jochenbilderbeek1980 (talk • contribs) at 19:46, 13 October 2018.

I'll leave that up to you guys and watch what you guys are doing. I'm not too concerned about the order. The Wayward Wolf (talk) 20:57, 13 October 2018 (UTC)
It seems rewards are not always the same, maybe the weapon, but not the quality of it. If that is so, better leave that empty.
For the Daily Pursuit we can remove the 'required engram' part, there are none...
Too complicated to do that, just leave it. Also, sign your posts with ~~~~. The Wayward Wolf (talk) 19:20, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
Can you reconsider this? With the new prerequisites line (good addition to normal pursuits by the way) there are now 2 lines that need to be left blank or have 'None' added. Because Daily pursuits don't have either.

BTW: I think something went wrong. After doing some edits I don't see the newly added Prerequisites line anymore! I didn't removed it. Jochenbilderbeek1980 (talk) 06:46, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Something went wrong with the prerequisites part so I removed it for the meanwhile until I have time to fix it. Keep adding prerequisites in and I'll try to get prerequisites back soon. The Wayward Wolf (talk) 12:05, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

Template redesign

In case you need to do some work on the template please consider this: The Daily Pursuits are quite different than the normal ones. If we can use a different template for them we can remove all the useless lines (req level, req engram). Also the reward is always the same so it would be way more clean if we can put that in the general part of the Daily Pursuits. That clears another line. Then we could consider adding a line with Strategy/Tips/Or whatever we call them: Things that are good to know to complete the pursuits. For instance:

  • Pursuit: Collect 100 Bio Toxin
  • Goal: Get the toxin in inventory
  • Strategy: Kill Cnidaria to get Bio Toxin. Shoot them from a distance with arrows or gun to avoid getting stung. Using a mount like Basilosaurus is the safest way.

Sure, that's a great idea. I'll do that now. The Wayward Wolf (talk) 15:30, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Clothing Pursuit Rewards

In my experience I’ve only ever gotten an ascend piece for finishing a clothing set, and though boots are most common I have gotten a chest piece at least once. It is likely unimportant to note, but the peice will be dyed a random color. Thekiltedbean (talk) 05:24, 26 November 2018 (UTC)

It should be noted on the page that the quality of the boots awarded depends on the difficulty level you play. This is the case of all gear and bp recieved as rewards. i.e. Sword from terror bird hunt is always ascendant in brutal, and often journeyman in medium.

Added that info! Jochenbilderbeek1980 (talk) 16:25, 22 January 2019 (UTC)

Prerequisite Pursuits

I would like to propose that we add something like a "Prerequisite Pursuits" as part of the standard Pursuit structure. I have been focusing a lot more on pursuits lately (to get to the "Tame: Quetz" pursuit), and in so doing, I have recognized that certain pursuits have to be completed before others will become available. Specifically Tame: Gallimimus > Raptor > Pteranodon > Megalodon are all prerequisite to the next pursuit. I would like to note and share what I am learning with this prerequisite order, but I can't seem to find a way to do so in the wiki with the given structure on the Pusuits_(Mobile) page. I tried a few times to make updates using the [Show preview] button, but nothing seems to work (so I never saved the changes). I'm not new to technical writing, but I am new to working with this type of Wiki so I wasn't sure how to go about proposing it, but this Talk page seemed like a good place to start. Forgive my being a Wiki Noob.

What do you all think about adding prerequisite pursuits to the structure? Quixilvr84946 (talk) 07:21, 11 January 2019 (UTC)

Sure, I'll add it. The Wayward Wolf (talk) 11:59, 11 January 2019 (UTC)
Thanks @The Wayward Wolf I updated the page today with the following changes:
* Reordered Taming pursuits in prerequisite order, and added known individual prerequisites.
* Standardized XP format for all pursuits.
* Reordered many other pursuits in more chronological order.
* Changed icon for tames from an egg to the soothing balm.

Prerequisite Pursuits

I want to add this info, with proof. But I can't add the YouTube video because of the spam filter...is there a way?

Hunt and kill 10  Megalodons (you actually need to kill 20 [1])

I don't think proof is necessary. The Wayward Wolf (talk) 21:00, 16 March 2019 (UTC)
