A mysterious emblem was an item that could be traded in to the Emblem Trader for bounties, which can be used to purchase items from the Bounty Hunter Store. It can be obtained in several ways:

  • Killing the player's assigned target on the official Bounty Hunter world, while having a mysterious emblem in the inventory. The opponent's combat level determines the drop rate.
  • Killing Wilderness bosses on the official Bounty Hunter world.
  • Killing various monsters assigned by Krystilia. Bosses and monsters assigned by her can drop the emblems outside of Bounty Hunter worlds.

Mysterious emblems cannot be dropped. Unlike most items, mysterious emblems have a seven second timer before being destroyed, in order to prevent players from destroying them mid-combat to deny their killer the emblem as loot.

They can be sold to the Bandit Duty Free general store starting at 30,000 coins each. This is beneficial because it can give a much better return compared to selling it to the Emblem Trader for high alchemy items.

In 2019 with the rework of Bounty Hunter, the Mysterious emblems were discontinued. All existing emblems were converted into a new item called Archaic emblem, while a new Mysterious emblem was created.

A tier 10 emblem was one of the materials required to construct a mounted emblem in the Achievement Gallery, requiring 80 Construction. This was replaced by the Decorative emblem.

Tiers and upgrading

There were 10 tiers of emblem with increasing values. Once a mysterious emblem was obtained, players could either trade it in to the Emblem Trader for bounties (points), or upgrade the emblem by killing more Bounty Hunter targets. If a player was holding multiple emblems, only the highest tier emblem would be upgraded. Killing monsters assigned by Krystilia or bosses on Bounty Hunter worlds did not upgrade emblems in the player's inventory, instead the monsters would continue to drop tier 1 emblems.

The number of points granted depended on the tier of the emblem:

Emblem Bounties Emblem Bounties
Tier 1 50,000 Tier 6 1,200,000
Tier 2 100,000 Tier 7 1,750,000
Tier 3 200,000 Tier 8 2,500,000
Tier 4 400,000 Tier 9 3,500,000
Tier 5 750,000 Tier 10 5,000,000

Emblems may now be received as a drop from other players only if the killer has an emblem in their inventory. Emblems now also have a seven second timer to destroy to prevent players from destroying it mid-combat out of spite.
