Alchemist Quest question

#1 Post by killter »

I know that completing one of them removes a random reward from another Alchemist.

Does having a reward 'selected' (that is, quest given'), 'lock it' from being the one randomly chosen?

So, for example, if I have an open question for the Hermit (class points), can finishing another alchemist's request eliminate the class point quest or is it 'locked' since I have it open?

No

You should always get the one you want most FIRST, because otherwise it's at risk.
Check out my addons: Nullpack (classes), Null Tweaks (items & talents), and New Gems fork.

Thanks for the answer.

That's a shame, though, because my most needed one is the only ingredient I'm missing. (I have the other 3 quests complete).

I can't for the life of me find a Vial of Fire Wyrm Saliva anywhere.

That ingredient is fairly rare, although you'll be near-guaranteed to find it later in the game during Charred Scar. Alternatively keep a look out for Vaults with lava tiles, those are dangerous but always have Fire Wyrms. You can always try your luck farming adventurer parties too.

Gorbat pride is also a good place to "find" wyrm thingies.

I've seen wyrms in Daikara too, although they are rare.

The random quest Lost Land of Poosh has Wyrms too.

Is Gorbat Pride on the main continent? The wiki page on it doesn't give a location... I only have Dreadfell left on the main continent, unless I've missed something.

Can I find wyrms using the farportal? I beat one farportal mission by the skin of my teeth, a little wary to farm there but the rewards might be nice.

you can find anything in the farportals but chances aren't that great. it might be a fire wyrm, might be a muti-hued wyrm, anything,
and they will not be solo. one my character recently visited 7 farportals, i think i met... hm, 2 or 3 fire wyrms, including one of the bosses

anyway farportals are very risky, some of them are easy while others are nightmare

Gorbat will become available a little while after you do dreadfell.

All those nice alchemist upgrades... so close yet so far. At least if I survive going East I'll have a pile of them waiting for me to unlock. I can afford a couple far portals so I'll try that first, I guess.
