    Possible game-play add-on Easter egg

    If you came into Wildlands rather late, after Nov. 2017 (as I did), you missed the Day of the Skull Easter egg challenge. However if you've explored the map enough you should have come across a skull or two with flowers/a hat, etc, and get the prompt of "take" it. If you do, it disappears however nothing else will happen. There should be 21 skulls in the game world left over from the challenge. I'm assuming one in each of the 21 provinces.

    So why not add finding these skulls as part of any game role being conducted in Bolivia? Take a photo for example when you come across one.

    You can find links to the exact locations of course, but why not simply keep an eye out for them as you play the game? So far, without any external hints, I've located skulls in Flor de Oro, La Cruz, Media Luna, Mojocoyo, Ocoro, and Pucara.

    Here's one example:


    So simply an idea for possible additional activities that could be taken - if you haven't already done so of course.

    I remember seeing a guitar on an island you were supposed to get one time. I ran across it and it broke into a bunch of pieces. I think they respawn after you leave the area? When I came back it was there to get. The first time it broke into pieces I was like I didn't even see it. It is what it is.

    The last one I did was the 8 stone statues. Now that was a fun one to do.

    Exploding owl was the most fun Easter egg for me. Close second was "don't press me" button near Pucara dam, which activates fireworks. Looks brilliant at night and can be made to look even better with various filters in photo mode.

    I located 18 day of the dead skulls so far, without a guide, might go back for the rest of them. Skulls were a bit of a chore, but some locations are absolutely genius (mausoleum for instance). Kinda sad they don't respawn once picked up.

    Btw, has anyone survived the leap of faith (assassin's creed Easter egg)?

    Yeah the guitar is a collectible on that very small island.

    I had forgotten that there were eight stone statues to collect out in the game-world. I think I came across two in previous game-play.

    +++++++++++++

    I'll have to look up "exploding Owl" as that doesn't ring any bells, other than coming across owls in just playing the game, and once even took a photo IIRC.

    18 skulls so far is cool. I've found two more, and currently dismantling the cartel in Espiritu Santo - with two "logical" locations left to search.

    The Owl was a great one indeed. The Dark Souls one was great. I'm still fond of the Lady Tree at night as well. I'm pretty sure you will die from that jump off that tower.

    Ah, the Lady Tree at night, yes that one is cool.

    I don't remember the exact coordinates, but there's a stump tree near some huge rock in La Cruz province. Owl stands on top of that stump tree for a bit if not disturbed. Getting too close will disturb the owl, so just snipe it from a distance. That huge rock also has a backstory. Once upon a time, it used to be invincible, players could glitch into it and get insane amount of kills. This was patched a long time ago, so people don't get too much fun.
    Now that I think of it, owl is close to one of the shrines (first shrine) used for 3 witches solo challenge.

    SE corner of La Cruz you say. Will take a gander over that way and see what it produces. Thanks.

    There is a bunch of targets around where the owl is located at as well. Should help you spot it.
