I'm starting this thread for the benefit of flame, who seems intent on not listening to me when I tell him that his scalp is useless.
Some background, awhile back flame (yes, the artist) had the light of justice brought down on him for the crime of theft and vandalism. He was raiding what he thought were unpaid claims etc. etc. Now, someone from these forums has recently sent him a PM claiming that he has flames scalp, and will give it back in exchange for one haven subscription coin. After I told him the scalp was useless, he foolishly decided to ask the guy trying to ransom the scalp about it instead of telling him ****** off, and was told that if he ate the scalp, he would get his stats back.
Now, correct me if I am wrong on the following points;
A players scalp can be turned into puggles to register its scalp score
If the player whom the scalp belonged too had "the story of cain and abel," puggles will give you 150 silver for it
If a player scalps you, you get less of your proficiencies back from inheritance.
The last three points are all that scalps are for, apart from trophy hunting.
Sorry if this is in the wrong part of the forum. I also apologize for posting this in his stead, but flame has a habit of completely ignoring the sound advice I give him and I know he probably won't ask on his own. (actually he did, but it was in the "is this server too old" thread, but it was completely off topic and went ignored) I want to get a definitive answer from anybody on the forums because I know he isn't going to listen to his friends.
