Collecting Items for a Quest
Now it's time to continue questing. Open your quest log. One quest asks
you to collect a number of items for the NPC. These types of quests are
called collection quests. In many cases, a collection quest can only be
fulfilled by killing monsters and looting the necessary items from their
corpses. Some collection quests, however, simply ask you to retrieve items
from objects in the world. The first orc and troll collection quest, for
example, asks you to bring back cactus apples from the numerous cactus
plants dotting the Valley of Trials.
Go to the object that offers the desired collection item. In the case of an orc
or troll player, this would be a cactus plant. In the case of any other player
race, this would be the corpse of a monster you just killed. Your quest log
description will always tell you exactly what monster you must kill in order
to find the item. Always refer back to your quest log if you forget what
monster drops the item you need.
To get the item, open up the object's loot window. Keep in mind that if you
are looting a monster, you aren't always guaranteed an item. Don't worry.
Quest collection items do drop fairly regularly. Keep killing monsters and
you'll eventually collect the required number.
Pick up the item from the loot window and once you do so, a message on
your screen tells you the item you just looted, how many of those items
you now have, and how many you still need.
When you have collected the necessary number, turn in this quest for
another experience award, and possibly a material reward as well.
