Hua Mein faction quests unchanged

Linaure · 03-11-2010, 12:37 PM

Unless it's in this morning's hotfix, the Hua Mein faction quests still include more than one harvesting quest. Tuesday's was Hua Mein Heating, requiring 25 lumber, and this morning (Thursday) I checked before work, and got Netting More Fish, the octopus/roe quest.

oh I hope they keep the fishing one it would be more appropiate then keeping the forestry one.

Just logged in at 8:10 AM PST and fishing is still the quest for thursday. So it looks like no quests got changed.

It might not have passed QA yet. I had the impression this itemization tweak was going in next Tuesday, they may have rushed it out.

Whilhelmina · 03-11-2010, 02:53 PM

It changed : you can pull the raw from the broker, the bank, the supply depot or what you already had in your inventory SMILEY

I realised it when it auto-dinged with my provy that had the fisheses in her pocketssss SMILEY

Oh, sweet! That makes my alt-harvesting-grinding marathon slightly less urgent. SMILEY

I happened to have 20 octopus raws on Pheep, she'd gotten to L88 Alchy and I was getting her harvesting maxed.

When I went to the Hua Mein and picked up the quest, it instantly dinged the 20 I had.

Nice change for those who aren't leveled on their harvesting like some of mine are.

Anyone know if the lumber one is the same way?

Maroger · 03-11-2010, 07:09 PM

I hope they do the same for the wood harvesting too.

I hate the pandas -- I would like to slaughter and burn the whole village as payback for not having crafting tables.

every zone has the crafting tables - if you carry the tinkered ones, never leave home without them when doing the daily round of faction and mark quest. Even used them in the middle of a raid akf break to replenish needed items that where in short supply because people forgot them

Well since they are only good for one use-- and there is no mailbox= you still have to leave the zone to get new ones.

I am all in favor of slaughtering pandas and burning their village. At least my woodworker is done with them. The carpenter only has one more day of agony in that dreadful village and I am not bothering with the provisioner.

Don't bother responding to Maroger. He still thinks the new portable stations are only good for one use, when they're good for 10. You're not going to convince them of anything.

If you have to make 10 items that's ONE use. Portable stations are a PITA --

Cynith · 03-12-2010, 12:21 PM

10 items on ONE charge - you still have 9 charges left.

I've had one set of all tables for the entire faction grind so far - only replaced one or two because I started out with the 5 charge older items. I've been doing all the quests, every day. I'm finished with the Hua Mein - and the Kerra and still have charges left.

These tables rock and are designed perfectly for these new quests.

Methinks we have a troll in disguise

Gladiolus · 03-12-2010, 12:35 PM

My problem is not with the harvesting quests (my level 34 provisioner is quite happy with them) but with the quests that require you to make something of a different profession, like my carpenter being asked to make a club which is a level 80 woodworker recipe.

These are actually designed for crafters that are level 80. what level is your carpenter? My carpenter gets asked to make rugs - woodworker the clubs and my provisioner makes food items.

My carpenter, provisioner and woodworker are level 82+ crafters.

Cynith · 03-12-2010, 01:24 PM

just for clarification - are you referring to your carpenter getting asked to make clubs on the dailies or on the quest line leading up to the dailies?

Either way I haven't had any difficulties doing any of the quests for my craftsman classes at the Hua Mein. I've done all of them on all three, every day. If you are getting something you cannot make because you do not have the recipe for it then I would /bug it in game.

Deveryn · 03-12-2010, 02:04 PM

I'm a carpenter and I've never been asked to make clubs. I make rugs and fish.

My carpenter has only ever been asked to make azure rugs.

If you're being asked to make clubs and you're not a Woodworker, then it would suggest your crafter isn't a carpenter/provisioner either. Is it possible you are mistaken and this recipe was asked of another alt ?

The rug recipe did confuse me a bit at first as I broker out the portable loom and couldn't find the recipe, then realised that of course it needed the woodworking table !

Piltow · 03-13-2010, 06:22 PM

The Saturday quest for 5 roots/lumber is obtain it anywhere also. I got completion by pulling them out of my guild harvesting depot.
