Give the goblins a custom OnDeath script, and increment (or decrement) a variable. When the variable reaches 10 (or 0 for decrementing), the journal updates "you've killed 10 goblins, tell the questgiver".

I can give you a fish, or I can point you to the guide on how to fish. Here is the guide.

Give them a hat or have hands to be collected then use the condition of check item to count if the number of hats >9 in the quest givers conversation.

^this is a pretty good way 

it doesnt require too much scripting

and, it is gross - carrying around goblin hands (bloody sack)

If you head over to the scripting forums and go to page 9 and look for a post called "Simple script, what have i done wrong" by me, it tells you all about the script necessary and there's one that will count the goblins too..

fixed.

If you wanted to get really complex (which you probably don't), then the ginc_group include file contains some useful functions for checking whether an entire group or faction is dead. The advantage of putting creatures into named groups, or giving them custom factions, is that you can vary the number of encounter creatures spawned depending on the average level of the party. A level 1 party might get 10 to kill, whereas a level 5 party might have 20 creatures spawned for them, so the journal entry could simply say 'Kill all of the [creature type]s'. The final script event fires when the entire group/faction is dead (regardless of how many of them there were), so there's no need to keep track of the actual number killed via a variable.

At the start of Shaar Moan I gave the option of attacking a group of three rogues. Their shared OnDeath script fires a conversation when all three have bitten the dust, although it could just as easily update a journal entry instead.

Thanks all for the answers alot of help i think i am going use giving them a items a "tooth" or somthing and see if that is the easy way out thanks for all of it but was hoping not to script hehe just click this click that add this here that link there and done

The scripting is actually pretty easy. I did this myself today for my first quest. Ten rats total in two different buildings. No need to collect anything.

When the quest giver gives you the quest and you update your Journal you can Add an Action in the Conversation to set a local variable on your PC that will track the kills. Then, with a custom OnDeath script, you can increment the count for every kill. When the amount is reached, you update the Journal.

I would think making custom teeth/whatnot would actually be harder than the scripted method.

I was looking at that Group stuff today and wasn't quite sure how it worked. Thanks for the link DannJ!

Once you become familiar with the group and faction functions in ginc_group, you'll wonder how you ever did without them. No more incrementing variables, or building your own complex loops to cycle through creatures.

I used those functions extensively in 'Isle of Shrines' for groups of neutral creatures who would all become hostile if you attacked any one group member. Each individual spawned encounter was put into its own group. That way, if you attacked a member of one group, only their immediate group members became hostile. Other creatures in the same area who weren't within sight or hearing range remained neutral.

That sounds very useful. 

I'm going to download your Isle of Shrines then and have a look! Thanks!
