I will try your trick waerund and see if it works for me too! I have gone in too much trouble for this quest to let it uncompleted :P. I would also like to thank GM Rennaj for answering  my petition in game and confirming that the quest is indeed broken. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.


As for the ''Lorytia Starhammer and the Clan reunion'' quest, I think I know how to solve your problem. Try giving trasok first the gold ingot and then the iron one! Don't give them together or he wont accept them. I hope this works for you.

Talad was referring to plate mail skins being added, which is different from having usable plate mail for characters.

Well what good is it to have player skins for plate mail armor if there is no plate mail to wear?!

General Discussion / Plate armor in new version?
« on: July 18, 2007, 07:27:01 pm »
In the main page of the PS site there is a list of the new features in release .19.  It states: ''Added plate mail for many chars''

I haven't seen any plate mail and I haven't heard of anyone else having seen it. Maybe this feature will be enabled in the future?

I think you can disable bubbles by deleting chatbubbles.xml

That would be nice! Thank you for the immediate response.

.
Yonda Axebow requested two molten iron and 100 trias in order to make a small sculpture for grimal bloodaxe. I gave her the two molten iron, she thanked me and immediately

requested for the 100 trias. At that time the server crashed, before i got a chance to give her the 100 trias. Now she doesn't accept neither the molten iron nor the 100 trias. I

tried going back one or two steps in the quest but there isn't any change. What should i do? Please help me!

You're basically screwed.  You need a high level dev to go into your character and screw around with your quest log, and they don't help us out like that.

I have spoken to other players who have just taken the quest and they all have they same problem. Yonda axebow doesn't accept  the molten iron. So it seems it is a general problem and the quest can not be completed. Since it is not my personal problem i would like to request for a GM to look into the matter and fix it

That has a lot of chance for abuse. Many quests are one-time quests, especially because they give you unique and powerful items along the way. Having the ability to redo them from the beginning would mean you amassing those items more than you are supposed to.

Well if the ''Reset Quest'' option applied only to the uncompleted quests and not to those listed as completed, then there would be no problem. It would help you complete a quest you are surely doing for the first time!

Yes a Train Max would be nice!

I agree. There have been many problems with quests since the upgrade. I think a ''Restart Quest'' option should be created instead of a ''Discard" one.

Knowing a little about both guilds, i believe this war could have been avoided. But of course this is my personal opinion. I believe it was IC though

Can anyone contact a dev, or is it like requesting to talk to Laanx himself?

Your problem seems to be a bit like mine. See ''get grimal out of retirement'' quest affected by a server crash  post. The server crashes affected some quests we were doing at the moment. Some high level developer should edit our quest logs and restart our quests but i don't think they would be willing to do it. Anyway I think we should contact a GM and see if he can do anything about it.

You don't get very much "stats" from doing missions.
You can create a new char wthtout deleting the old one.
If you want to transfer item's from one char to another, you go to a safe spot, ..drop stuff, ..log on with the other char and pick up stuff. (This is a little bit risky business, because some times the test server goes down and changes happens. And also if other characters find your stuff before you get back).

The great benefit of having a "mission runner", is that you know the quest in advance, and you don't have to mess up important quest's with your main char. ;)

Well i meant i dont want to undergo all the training again to make my new character strong. But i get what you mean now. Test the quests with the ''mission runner'' then safely do it with the normal character. Anyway, I only worry about quests because of the winch thing. Otherwise i don't care if i complete them or not.

Sorry, but welcome to the test lab. ;)
(The information on the webpage is not directly telling you that you are a "lab rat", but that's what you are indeed. The way you can see that, is by reading between the lines in this forum. an that the shortcut to the game is probably named "PlaneShift - Tech Demo").

Use /advisor [ Help ]
If the task is to complicated for the general helpers in the game, (advanced gamers), is usually responding on difficult issues, by telling you that only a GM can help you.

Use /advisor [ Help ] .. and ask for an GM
If nobody else but an GM can help you, ask for help from an GM in game, when you use /advisor [ Help ]
They are probably very busy, but since you have the patience to go back several steps in the mission, you probably also have the patience to wait for a GM respond. ;)

Petitition
I tried using petiton several times when I first started playing. But it seems like your petition doesn't get stored any ways. So it's probably just a chat box for all GM's to see. ..?!?! So don't write a petition and shut down the client and go to bed. That's probably as useful as saying "Hi! :)" in the public chat, when there's nobody around.
Maybe the petitions get stored until reply in v3.019. !?

My experience with getting help, ingame by help of the /advisor [ Help ] is 99% positive.
If you got patience, they always answers nice and politely.
PS: remember to tell everything you think is relevant for your situation before you send the message. Jut writing "Help!" in the help window, is probably not going to get you anywhere.

If your mission is unrecoverable, and you want to do it anyways the only way is unfortunately to create another character.
I messed up, from the beginning, because the client informers you in the beginning that you should not take more then one mission at a time.
I started with a mission that was supposed to give me an interesting item. To be able to complete this mission, I needed an object that was given in another mission. ...
I thought that this is an issue that the game creators had thought of, so to my logics...:
- If I'm supposed to take just one mission at a time, and I'm in a mission who gets solved by doing another mission first.  ..then I'm probably supposed to decline the first mission, and ask for it and get it back later. ..! :)  .. but no!  :(
...So i ended up with the item from the 2nd mission, that I was supposed to give to the man in the 1st mission, but couldn't get the 1st mission back. So I didn't need the Item from the 2nd mission anymore.
I asked an GM about this, an he told me that some times you HAVE to take more than one mission, but it's not recommended, because some missions use the same NPCs, and doing several missions simultaneously, can clutter up the conversation and responds from the NPCs.
..so I ended up making a new Char, a mission runner. ;)

Well Thanks for the immediate answers!

I will try to find a GM. Creating a new character and losing all my stats and items doesnt sound too good to me. What do you mean by saying mission runner? Is there a way to have a character only for quests or to transfer the stats to a new character? Well i did a petition but even if someone reads it, where will he contact me?

I have heard that some quests from bd are required to enter the winch. Is this one of them? If it isn't then it might as well stay uncompleted.

Maybe the devs should create an option to restart a quest and not just discard it. I think this would solve a lot of problems.
