All Windrose trophies and how to get them

Windrose has several trophies for you to grind on the side, and they provide you with some nice bonuses for your achievements. These trophies are all associated with the animals you hunt (barring one) in different biomes, and they provide you with buffs.

This guide will provide you with all the required information for unlocking the trophies.

How to get all trophies in Windrose

The following table has all the necessary information surrounding the trophies. You don’t have to complete them in any given order, but some of them are easier to finish than the rest. You’ll also need Hardwood and Nails to construct the trophies after you have unlocked the blueprints.

Name	Applicable Bird/Animal	How to Unlock
Bird Hunt	Azure Dodos	You’ll need to hunt 20 Azure Dodos (only) to get the Dodo head, which is required for this trophy. They’re pretty easy to find and not too difficult to take down. However, pay attention to their kind since only the Azure variant counts.
Goat Hunter	Goats	This is also pretty easy to complete, as Goats are quite open throughout the starting area. You’ll need to kill 20 of them, and also slay Goat Leaders for a chance at getting their head.
Predator Cull	Wolves	You have to kill 40 Wolves across all available biomes. Additionally, you also need to try to eliminate Alpha Wolf to get the Wolf Head (it’s not a guaranteed drop, just like the Goat Leader head).
Swamp Hunter Legend of the Swamps	Crocodiles	There are two trophies associated with the reptile that can be found in the Cursed Swamps biome. You’ll also need to look for the Crocodile Head, apart from killing 50 and 200 of them, respectively. Crocodiles are pretty dangerous, and ideally, it’s best to use a ranged weapon against them. Ensure that you’ve leveled up before trying to hunt them down.
Buccaneer In-Training	Wild Boars	You’ll need to kill a total of 40 boars, and all variants count, which makes it easy to earn the trophy. You’ll also need a Boar Head for the trophy that should be done by the time you get your 40 kills.
Crab	Crabs	You can earn this trophy by killing enough crabs that are commonly found in the Coastal Jungle biome. They’re easy to kill, and you’ll need to look out for a Crab Shell and two Crab Meats to get the trophy.
Senkamati Blades	N/A	This trophy is related to finding three Ritual Daggers spread all over the islands. You unlock the trophy from the Ritual Daggers of the High Priestess after you’ve found the first one. To get the trophy, you’ll need to find all three.

Since Windrose is in early access, the number of trophies could increase in the future when new animals and creatures are added. We will duly update our guide so that you can always have all the trophies displayed on your base.

The trophies and their buffs help to raise your base’s Comfort Level. When you Comfort Level is high, it will buff your character’s stamina thanks to the rested status. When your character is rested, it will recover stamina more quickly when you’re outside your base. The buffs to your base’s Comfort Level are stackable, and having all the trophies will be immensely helpful for the same reason.
