Certain Vampyri do not count towards "The Slayer" Badge

[Mystoc]

These enemies appear villain side in Striga Isle in Oprheus's story arc in This mission. On the homecoming wiki they are considered part of the same mob group so logically should give credit towards "The Slayer" badge

 

the wiki for this mission description does mention its an issue but its still not fixed, I'm not sure how simple of a fix this would be but I'm reporting this bug in hopes it can be resolved.

This has been reported previously. And as stated in the previous reports, there is a discrepancy in what the requirements are depending on where you check. For instance, on Badger, it states that only Council Vampyri count. I don't have any characters currently working on getting the badge to see what the requirements say, and the completed badge does not specify either. So it may be a bug or it may be working as intended.

I would hope it's a bug or leveling through striga isle content favors the hero alignment more than the villain one, when you reach Tobias Hansen as a contact hero side his story arc offers a very similar mission flavor wise where all enemies are vampyri and these do count towards "The Slayer" Badge.

 

why else specifically have a single mission for both hero/villain where all the enemies are vampyri if not to offer parity to both alignments when doing striga isle content?

 

when leveling in striga isle levels 20-29 you can pick to be hero or villain if only 1 alignment can gain you access to a defeat badge while other does not, said alignment (hero) is just going to be picked more often than not especially when said badge is attached to a very popular passive accolade that everyone eventually wants.

 

again, I hope this a bug/oversight but neither of us can know for sure.

That is actually pretty common in the game. Lots of badges can only be earned by red siders, blue siders, or gold siders even if others from the wrong side/alignment work towards it.

 

(Edit: For example, there is a Circle of Thorns defeat badge for defeating the mage bosses. However, only the mages on red side or blue side, I can't remember which, count for the badge.)
