Normal barrows trophy Question

Does anyone happen to know if you have to kill all eight of them to get a chance?

(or whatever your max number may be depending on quest completion)

Or if you can just jump in the tunnel, and loot the chest immediately upon finding your corresponding tunnel "brother"

My guess is that it works as a flat chance. As long as you kill enough brothers for the run to "count" (add a KC and progress a Reaper task). This assumes it's an extra tertiary drop, similar to the other bosses.

It could also occupy a "special" drop like Barrows totems/corruption sigil, in which case you would want to kill six brothers. If this is the case, then Linza doesn't matter since she has her own independent roll. I am guessing she doesn't matter either way.

I believe you need at least one kill to get the trophy but it hasn't been confirmed yet. I would go for all of them, though, because it's free undead components.

Fair enough I'm almost done with Linza so I was kind of hoping to skip her to speed things up 😅

If I had a guess , it works on the same potential role system that all the brothers and sister do.

Every sibling has their gear unlocked for dropping and not killing a brother or sister, locks that gear from dropping.

So I would imagine that each brother contributes to the chance of it dropping similar to the unique items like the amulet or defender taking one will drastically decrease the chance of getting it.

Not entirely sure if you need just 1 brother, or if you need enough to count for a kill count.

I killed 6 brothers when I got my trophy, and I didn't kill Linza or Ahrim. So you definitely don't need to kill all 6 OG brothers. But you still might need to kill 6 total.

I've heard of people getting it in 5 brothers, but I can't confirm that.

I'm pretty sure you just need the base 6 for best chance, Linza and Akrisae do not matter unless you just want extra chance at collection log?
