Tupta - Can't harvest shelf Fungus

[Maroger]

<p>I go to the locations from Eq2 Traders - I see the shelf fungus but there is no way I can harvest it. My "hand" never indicates I can get some</p><p>What am I doing wrong?</p>

<p>You must have the Tupta TS daily quest active in your journal to be able to collect the items like the fungus.</p>

I am amazed at the length she goes to to kill tradeskilling when faction is involved. This sucks beyond belief  -- I should be able to harvest this stuff at any time - not just when I have a quest active. That design needs to be reworked and never put in the game again.</p>

<p>I don't see it as a problem. Just harvest extras of materials while you have the quest logged.</p><p>Almost all quest in game do not let you collect items needed to completed without having the quest logged, and all of the tradeskill missions are this way.</p>

I didn't realize we were penalized if we didn't overharvest when we had a quest in our book. That is just plain stupid - why should Domino care if you have quest in your book or not - just let people harvest -- I know have to wait until tomorrow morning to harvest enough goo for my Grobb task.  I find this entire faction question a total pita to get a book which should be heirloom.</p>

<p>Then when you have the quest, harvest to your heart's conent, do the quest and keep the rest for next time.</p>

Don't be chidlish and throw a tantrum shaking your rattle at Domino because of a game mechanic that's existed from day 1.</p>

<p>Honestly.. I still don't understand <em>why</em> you'd want to harvest a quest item for a quest you do not have.. <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/1cfd6e2a9a2c0cf8e74b49b35e2e46c7.gif" border="0" />(Edit: Nevermind, I do understand now.)</p>
