According to this (http://wiki.project1999.com/Bat_Fur_Quest) guide on the Project 1999 wiki, turning in a [fire beetle eye], [rat whiskers], and [bat fur] to "Caleah Herblender" will result in a faction increase with The Order of Three. I have tried giving Caleah every combination of bat fur, fire beetle eyes, and rat whiskers and nothing happens, she just eats my items i spent hours farming. I think this is a bug? Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

This quest was not multiquestable.

Pending update,
-Rewrote Caleah Herblender's quest as multiquestable. It also requires apprehensive or better faction.

I did this quest several times on P99 and it requires 2 rat whiskers, 1 bat fur, and 1 fire beetle eye.

I saw it was written that way, and left it.

However, after reviewing the quest on allakhazam, the intermediate turn in text is:

Caleah Herblender says 'All right. Remember, I need all three ingredients to test this spell out. Keep up the good work, ______.'
Caleah Herblender says 'All right. Remember, I need all three ingredients to test this spell out. Keep up the good work, ______.'
Caleah Herblender says 'Hmm. Good job, ______, let's give this a try. Flame and fire. Heat and spark. Touch of Ro, light this dark! Ahh. It stills needs a little work, I guess. Thanks for your help, here's a little something for your effort.'

So it looks like 3 turn ins. Not to say someone couldn't have left one of the components on there, but it's probably 3?

Probably so. I wondered about this myself when I did it. I would expect someone on alla to post about it needing 2 whiskers and no one has.

OP says "Giving all 3 items"

Comment says "Just go after the Fire Beetles if you want to save some money then get a stack of the other two components" And said he did it several times.

This quest is broken. Giving her a bat fur, a rat whisker, and a fire beetle eye results in her saying:

[Wed Jul 24 16:43:14 2019] Caleah Herblender says 'All right. Remember, I need all three ingredients to test this spell out. Keep up the good work, Buggo'
[Wed Jul 24 16:43:14 2019] Caleah Herblender says 'All right. Remember, I need all three ingredients to test this spell out. Keep up the good work, Buggo'
[Wed Jul 24 16:43:14 2019] Caleah Herblender says 'All right. Remember, I need all three ingredients to test this spell out. Keep up the good work, Buggo'

Giving her the additional rat whisker results in:
Caleah Herblender says 'Hmm. Good job, Buggo, let's give this a try. Flame and fire. Heat and spark. Touch of Ro, light this dark! Ahh. It stills needs a little work, I guess. Thanks for your help, here's a little something for your effort.

No faction, no "little something."

Also, she randomly says
Caleah Herblender says 'Hmm.. Let's see if we can find someone to help replenish our stock of [rat whiskers] and [bat fur]. I need these items for a new little experiment I'm working on.'
Asking about rat whiskers or bat fur results in:
Caleah Herblender says, 'You can probably find some outside the city gates... in the hills and plains.'

There is no mention of a third ingredient, the fire beetle eye.

The issue was the quest reward text worked even if your faction wasn't apprehensive or better. Fixed, pending update.
