No quest

Post by shubla »

I did not get any quests, so I decided to commune with nature. Then I got a quest, when I completed it, I did not get another quest. Now it complains that I cannot commune with nature yet.

Why is this?
Because of the bullshit rng-being-everywhere thing?

I don't think anything about "randomness" is "bullshit".

Well it is bullshit when you dont get any quests because of it! There should be at least 1 quest that you ALWAYS get when you complete 1 quest.

Actually this seems like a pretty good balance to the whole "questing is op" thing

I agree and actually feel there should be more instances of not having an additional quest issued. it gives the skill commune with nature a purpose

+1 for less quest spam

As it is now it's way too random for that. I have a whole list of active quests right now and I keep getting enough to keep questing. Then again, I don't quest as actively; maybe you get fewer quests if you do too many of them?

Are you saying the "visit" quest you got didn't give you another quest? Or did you get a quest from that, and while completing that quest, didn't get any others? In the first case, I'd call bug. In the latter case, I'd say working as intended. You don't always get quests and there's just that random chance. It seems to be rare, so maybe this can be changed?

I think they should reduce the cost of commune with nature down to 500 exp but once every game day which is basically once every 8 hours I believe

Unfortunately, I had the same thing happen to me yesterday. Handed in like 4 quests, didn't get any other quests (meaning i was literally left with no quests what so ever) and now even today I still haven't got a quest. Do I 'have' to commune with nature to rectify this or if I wait long enough will one of those piece of shit trees whisper to me so I can start doing quests again?

Yes you do receive random whispers. After abandoning the first chain and commuting twice I got a whisper I think a couple of days later.
