Versus Spotlight - Victor Saltzpyre & Packmaster

Heroes and Pactsworn!

Welcome to the fourth out of five weekends of the Versus Spotlight events. Every week, we’ll take a closer look at one of the Ubersreik 5 and one of the Pactsworn Specials. Unlock unique time-limited rewards, learn more about the spotlight Hero and Skaven, and do it all while having fun. This week’s spotlight will be on good ol’ One Eye Saltzpyre and the cruel Packmaster!

Previous Spotlight’s Rewards

An update on the way the rewards are handed out:
Due to feedback from the community, as well as some technical issues on our end regarding this, we’ve decided to change how rewards for the Spotlight are given out.

All rewards for the spotlight will now be earned upon completion of the kill counter. That means all of the currency, portrait frames and Hero poses will be unlocked for the community (alongside the Pactsworn skin, as before).

This change is retroactive and will also affect the rewards of the first weeks of the spotlights.

The rewards for the previous spotlight have just been delivered, so check your inventory! As a note, the Hero Pose might take a few restarts before it applies properly to your account. Sorry about that!

This Week’s Rewards

There are unique rewards to unlock weekly, all earned by the community as a whole through completion of the Kill-Counter. There are currency rewards, portrait frames, skins, and weapon poses to be earned.

Saltzpyre & Packmaster Spotlight rewards will be earnable between December 5 - December 8. All rewards will be granted the following week.

Kill-Counter

Rally together as community to eliminate Heroes in Versus to complete the Kill Counter. If the community completes the counter, you will all unlock:

  • An exclusive skin for the Packmaster!
  • 120 shillings.
  • 100 Helmgart Sellsword Marks.
  • A brand new Portrait frame.
  • A Hero Pose for Saltzpyre!

Since all rewards are tied to the kill tracker, and since you’ve all been smashing through every target so far, we’ve decided to up the ante and increase the target kills from 40K Hero kills to 250K! Get crackin’, players, that’s a lot of Heroes to kill.


Victor Saltzpyre

Viktor
For Victor, life has ever been a never-ending battle against heresy and destruction – the beleaguered Reikland is but a vaster stage upon which to strut his hour. Though it is hardly in Victor’s nature to trust such outcasts as are his companions in these dark days, he accepts that righteous work can sometimes be accomplished by stained souls and soiled hands.

Packmaster


The Packmasters of Clan Moulder excel in driving packs of ravening beasts into battle, but in the crush of the swarm they favour other tactics. Clan Moulder is ever seeking new subjects to further its vile breeding experiments, and every Packmaster covets the bounty paid for a particularly noteworthy prize.

Awesome, thank you!

So I cannot participate in this if I do not want to play Versus? Do I still get rewards if others make it?

I also wanted to ask for a bit more clarity on the conditions with which the rewards can be claimed. Is it enough to play any mode during the weekend as it was until now? Do we need to play versus? Do we actually have to kill a hero?

I like versus well enough but it’s just too much waiting for me to be enjoyable.

Kill counter rewards are awarded to the entire community provided that the kill counter is reached! You don’t HAVE to contribute to earn the rewards, but if you notice that the counter is struggling a bit it might be in your best interests to jump on and chip in :saluting_face:

By the way, about the pose. We already have rapier in lohners shop, is it like… other rapier poses set or this picture is a lie and wére getting unreleased falchion poses ?

Good eye, that was a mistake on our part! You’re right, the actual Hero Pose reward will be for a different weapon, it’ll be the Falchion, One Handed Axe and Skull Splitter Hammer. Thank you for pointing that out!

Either the KC is now too high, or it’s the holidays, but we are not making this one.

I had enough time for Sienna’s pose, but didn’t get it. If I don’t get Victor’s, I’m going to stop doing these.

250k was pretty optimistic for the four days they gave us, maybe if we had two weeks…

I knew it.

Got everything but the Victor’s pose, even though I was on more than 8 hrs. I’m done with these.

I had to restart once or twice before they were added for me, hope this helps :slightly_smiling_face:
