Make New Event Herbs Count Towards Foraging Quest (Lock/Delete)

Make New Event Herbs Count Towards Foraging Quest (Lock/Delete)

Edit - this was added, this topic can be locked.

The title says it all, really. There's the 'forage for _ herbs' quest and oddly enough, the new herbs don't count towards this quest when foraged.

Them being around is temporary, but I feel like they should count towards the quest either way. They are classified as herbs and collected while foraging, after all. :P

Thanks for reading, have a good day/night!

Edit: Removed a section due to a misunderstanding on my part.

No support. The event herb is an addition to what you would normally forage so it does not take twice as long. It takes the same amount of time. In normal foraging circumstances, you cannot get 3 herbs because it's a max of 2 however during this event I have regularly foraged 3 herbs because of how the event system works. Sure, I get that it's nice to have something be easier however foraging 3 herbs is not a norm and therefore should not be counted as one through a quest.

That's odd, I've never foraged 3 herbs that I can recall, before or during the event. My herbalist has only ever brought 2, and now 1 of those 2 are almost always replaced with the event herbs. So for me, it does take twice as long.

I've checked an entire page of my foraging logs and it's 2, every time. It's not guaranteed it's an issue on my end, it's entirely possible you're getting more than you're meant to. Either way, I stand by my suggestion still.

Late edit: I've since realized winter was a factor in how many herbs I've gotten, which I had forgotten was a thing over my hiatus - that was a misunderstanding on my part.

No support, I agree, we just get the new herbs in addition to the old ones we would normally get. Now that it's winter I'm only getting like one regular herb each time but before, I was getting more.

Support. It's true we get additional herbs during event time, but they are herbs, so logically they should count.

I support.

Even though they are event herbs , they should count towards foraging for herbs quest. Since they are still herbs.
