This is probably pedantic, but it keeps getting to me. The activity "Explore Kills" involves defeating creatures that the flavor text says either ran away or were simply defeated. Whereas, when we actually "kill" something like rabbits or snails, those don't count toward "kills."

Maybe changing the Activities text to something more like "Explore Victories" would flow better with what is actually happening in the encounter.

What do others think?

i've been thinking about making a thread about hare kills going towards the kill count! i support your solution, though.

I was confused about this the first time saw it in beta, but quickly realized what 'kills' meant when hares weren't counting. i'd support changing it to make it more obvious it's only enemies!

Hah this also occurred to me. Maybe it could say Explore Battles? But yes, killing rabbits and bugs not counting confused me too. :p

@Dracowolfie do you still get the points if you lose? :|a I actually have never checked.

I'm gonna admit this has been bothering me (in a perfectionist kind of way) for a long time! Support for rewording it to defeating monsters or something rather than kills.

@seakittens; if you lose the battle you don't get the points. Can confirm. (Not even if you did manage to defeat 2 out of the 3 monsters. You'll get 0. Which might be an oversight or a bug, not sure!)

Something like "enemies defeated" does make more sense, when, yeah, those rabbits certainly aren't kicking anymore. lol I always found the wording more humorous than annoying, but I still support rewording it.

This has been on my mind as well. "Explore Victories" or "Explore Wins" were some alternatives I had thought of.
