Trophy Maker

You're entitled to the "Gourdcore" Trophy, for completing (in its entirety) the Gourd Quest while in Hardcore mode.

Notes

• This trophy absolutely must be purchased before you free the king and hardcore restrictions have been lifted.
• Defending the Gourd 21 times means working up to giving The Captain of the Gourd 25 spider webs, firecrackers, or can lids (since the first time you defend it, you give him 5). In total, you will have given him 315 of the item.
• The Disco Bandit and Accordion Thief ability to pickpocket when combat initiative is won significantly increases drop frequency, making it advisable to complete the quest as one of these character classes. If this, along with the frequency of the item drops is not enough to convince you that this is the way to go, another trophy can also be earned here, and an ultra-rare monster could potentially be encountered.
