Gathered Orb Of Whatever

JazzMaus · 08-28-2011, 10:31 AM

I posted this on the War Of Zek feedback thread, but it probably got buried.

Gathered Orb of Channeling (at least, probably all of the others) is a collectible item, with a collection attached to it, but you can't ADD it to the relevant collection, because when you right-click & select EXAMINE, all you get is standard tool-tip info.

The collection itself is open in my journal, but for 3 of the Orbs, the icon is a little dancing gremlin instead of the Orb icon SMILEY

It's been theorized that because this is an equippable item with stats, it somehow got borked as a collectible. That may well be, but regardless of what happened, please fix this.

Gathered Orbs of Alteration and Conjuration are showing with the Green Bug Icon in my inventory (I turned in the collections just the other day).

I cannot add those nor the Gathered Orb of Divination (which has the correct icon) to the collection. They are all flagged as collectible items; I have not added them previously; but right clicking on them does not bring up the collection window in the journal.

The green goblin icon does mean it is bugged out. Had that happen to me before.

Er derp, bad reading FTW. N/M me

On the subject of the "little green goblin" icon ..... saw it again this morning, in Nek Castle, as the icon for an Everling Locket. Which was tabbed as a "slashing weapon."

Not a huge issue, but still rather lame to see.

A couple of my lowbies have items from Nektropos Castle and they're all like that. Deirdre's Rosary, Everling Signet Ring and the Swinelords Loin Cloth.

If you drag and rop the collectible over the collections page it 'usually' will let you add it to the proper collection. Granted I am using Profit...

Also noticed that HQ items cannot be changed into house items since the update. Stupid gremlins.

Thanx, I'll try that today to see if the default UI will let me do that!

Would like to confirm: Arbreth's suggestion has so far worked for two of the Gathered Orbs, including one of the ones which is plagued by the dancing gremlin icon. So, fortunately, these collection quests are not 100% borked. However, while Arbreth's suggestion works -- so far -- it's only a band-aid, & SOE needs to fix this issue, one way or the other. After all, a lot of people don't come to the forums & will never read Arbreth's solution, & so will end up losing out on a collection & solely because SOE borked the items.

FIX, plz!!!!!
