Miscellaneous: Zone-specific foraging items not available until September 1999

[nilbog]

The Rathe Berries are present in the actual db - I believe I didn't catch that when I did a blanket removal of general 'Berries' for the text I posted in the thread.

For the Ice Radish and Tea Leaves, I guess I'm wondering do they exist on live today? If they were originally in those zones and then removed, why?

Also, flagging Tea Leaves and Thunderhoof Mushrooms for Sep1999 will effectively break the Feskr's Supplies quest until that date. This quest was added to the game with the Apr2000 revamp of Kerra Isle.

Aside from the drops, what else broke the ability to do this quest - i.e. should Feskr simply not respond/interact prior to Apr2000?

Proof that East Karna Tea Leaves existed on live (and in-era it seems they should be meals).

I'm sure that since the last patch, that tea leaves have changed from a meal to just a tradeskill item.

I noticed this while foraging and kept getting a You have scrounged up something not edible from the usual you have scrounged up food.

Or am I slow and this have been done for ages?

The tea leaves were definitely a meal two months ago as I had my low level ranger alt in EK practicing foraging. Unfortunately, he ran out of food and ate the 10 tea leaves he had foraged after I went AFK for a few hours.

This is a nice, albeit minor, change. Time to have him forage again in EK.

I was in EK foraging up a stack myself just last week and noticed that they were no longer edible.

WOOT!

I've accidentally eaten 2 since I started brewing QAT's... [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

In Kerra Isle (Kerra Ridge), a new named Kitty called Feskr Drinkmaker gives out a quest which requires that you bring back a bottle of Tunare's Finest (Found in a bar in Felwithe), some Tea Leaves (foraged in East Karana), a Thunderhoof Mushroom (Foraged in South Karana), and a Handmade Backpack (Tailored item - High Quality Bear Pelt & Backpack pattern)
This quest seems relatively easy to do, however there seems to be one problem -- The patch which changed Kerra Isle also seems to have changed the rare in East Karana. Last night, while powerforaging, my wife recieved a pebble (nodrop item, blackened sapphire icon) instead of tea leaves. Apparently, either Verant has moved the zone that has Tea Leaves and replaced them with the pebbles in East Karana, has made a typo and has people foraging items they should not be foraging, or has made there be two rare forages in East Karana. In any case, we haven't been able to find Tea Leaves, so if anyone forages them there (After the patch on the 12th) or finds their new location, post it here!



oh..sorry forgot something, the location I forage the Tea Leaves is at the HighPass ram bottom (which is the Sir xxx npc's place) wish it will help you =)



I just finished this quest tonight (4/13), thank you so much for the info. I used about 20mins to forage the Tea Leaves, and about 30mins to forage the Thunderhoof Mushroom. pls don't give up.. wish everyone lucky on this quest =)


You can still forage Tea leave in EK, they add Plains pebble(If any finds a use please post it ) to all the Karanas, I foraged one in Sk that night, trying to get a mushroom, so keep trying for the leaf. =)

I searched for ice radishes but found no reference to them (only Wild Radishes). Likewise I couldn't find any reference to Highpass tea leaves.

By effectively break, I just meant players wouldn't be able to complete the quest until Sep1999 due to the missing drops. More of an FYI than anything else.

It's probably easiest to just leave Feskr as is. Allix in Kerra Isle offers quest text for the classically broken The Luck of Allix quest. So Feskr would be similar until Sep1999.
