Quest Issue: Wizard EPic Fail

[qualia]

My Wizard Chilis attempted to MQ for his Epic this morning just before 10am est.

Chilis turned in the Note to Arantir to Dargon to spawn Arantir. The Wizard MQer turned in the staff of gabstik and gnarled staff & Chilis turned in the Blue crystal staff to Arantir and Chilis receives nothing. Both wizards were indifferent and Arantir spoke to chilis when Hailed.

[Wed Feb 17 09:59:22 2016] You say, 'Hail, Arantir Karondor'
[Wed Feb 17 09:59:22 2016] Arantir Karondor says, 'Ah yes, you again. Do you have the items? Give me the three you possess and I'll combine them with my own. '
[Wed Feb 17 09:59:23 2016] Arantir Karondor regards you indifferently -- looks like quite a gamble.

Lots of evidence of this MQ working on live. Should not be a faction issue as Arantir spoke to Chilis after Hail. I have heard that he is notorious on P99 for eating epic turn ins whether you are MQing or not. Getting your hands on a gnarled staff is tough enough until VS becomes a 3 day spawn.


Oct 12 2003 at 11:46 PMRating: Decent Posidius Sage * 68 posts I bought a FEAR MQ and it went pretty smoothly, got my satchel I had to bring back to Solomen, turned it in and HE ATE IT! /sigh....took a GM to give me my epic, apparently, I missed out on the little sliver of faction hit when turning in the Green Oil and getting the Staff of Gabstik, which still made me apprehensive to Solomen. I wasn't aware of this until after I did the turn in. Be aware....if you're MQ'ing or doing ANY type of turn-in on this quest, make sure you have indifferent faction at LEAST. Open up the trade window and have a friend cast invis on you to get indifferent faction

6) The recent "faction fix" worked. I did all the steps of the quest and was still apprehensive to all the quest NPCS. However, all my turn ins were sucessful. Assuming you started AFTER the fixes went in, you should have no issues with NPCs eating your turn ins. GL on yours! Was a great time.

Atleast Indifference faction is indead required to MQ. Just did it for a guildy. Rallos Zek Warrior tried at apprehensive, didn't fly. Tried again after the invis trick and it worked like a charm.

Thanks for posting this. My daughter's bard was turning in Blue Crystal Staff for me and he wouldn't take it. I got her to open trade window then invised her and it worked like a charm! My number 1 alt now has his 1.0!

in the world of Norrath it makes zero sense for the Wiz epic quest to only raise your TS faction ( which is required to complete ) to indif yet the quest then expects someone to do the shaman epic in order to complete their wizard epic

I believe there is a faction issue with this turn in that needs to be addressed with Arantir to accept turn ins with indifferent faction.
