Bounty Roundup: August's Great Hunt Delivers Legends, Secrets, and a Shocking Reveal
August 1st to 22nd was a whirlwind for the bounty boards, and the numbers speak for themselves. Across ten separate hunts, 147 unique hunters racked up a staggering 34,298 combined kills, chasing everything from majestic unicorns to the mightiest dragons—and even a secret target nobody saw coming. Prizes ranged from 1,000 to 5,000 COTOs, with an eye-watering 10,000 COTO bonus up for grabs in the dragon slaying. Let's dive into each hunt and crown the champions.
🦄 Any Unicorn — 508 Total Kills
The season's beauty contest drew 11 hunters, and Ceal Astra took the crown with 204 unicorn kills. Kakari (182) and Jade (81) rounded out the podium. A lovely way to spend August, and Ceal earned that 1,000 COTO prize.
🌿 The Ancient Druid — 155 Total Kills
Seven hunters braved the wave battles for the elusive hermit. Zain Rampage stood tall with 61 kills, ahead of Sammi (48) and Azurion Dufresne (40). Those fashion and alchemy recipes clearly motivated the grind—congratulations to Zain on the 1,000 COTOs.
⚔️ Retz the Murderer — 186 Total Kills
PVP zones and blood-stained maps made this one spicy. Only five hunters dared, and PoPo QiQi dominated with 97 Retz kills. Arcuss Blackwing (43) and Eidsyas Nomis (28) followed. A tense hunt, and PoPo QiQi takes home 1,000 COTOs or more.
🎃 Pumpkin Head — 592 Total Kills
Seasonal boss season is here, and 10 hunters smashed pumpkins with glee. Azurion Dufresne claimed victory with 214 kills, edging out Zain Rampage (164) and Eidsyas Nomis (162). That Skull Staff is a prize in itself, plus 1,000 COTOs for Azurion.
🕷️ Spider Queen — 58 Total Kills
Xen Trohop's brood didn't stand a chance against 9 hunters, though the low total shows how tough she is. Jemma Star emerged victorious with 31 kills, followed by Mandalar (11) and BeanHunter (4). A hard-fought 1,000 COTOs for Jemma.
🐉 Ancient Dragons — 2,432 Total Kills
The big one. Twelve hunters took on the realm's mightiest wyrms for a 5,000 COTO pot plus a 10,000 COTO bonus. TheExtreme was utterly dominant with 1,269 kills, but Mondravis nearly kept pace with 1,004. Dutch finished third with 113. An epic showdown—TheExtreme's haul is the stuff of legend.
🕵️ Blind Bounty 3 — The Reveal: Corpions! — 5,591 Total Kills
And now the moment we've all been waiting for. The secret target that had 43 hunters checking their stats every ten minutes is... Corpions!
