[星星]

Excuse me, where is needle? I've been stuck on this mission for four hours!！！！！
Or who can provide a way to accomplish this task ，please

It is some kind of enemy type, but i am too unsure, wich one.
Maybe one of the pre-boss encounters?

I was about to post on this quest but saw that you did first. This is the worst quest in the game, including the ones that make you get ridiculous levels of specific stats early in the game. The needles are the enemies with multiple spikes for arms that attack every turn and drop an exploding aoe orb. They are rare, not at all guaranteed to spawn, and the quest doesn't count it if you thread the same one. I have done dozens of runs trying to get this to happen and no more than 3 have ever spawned in a single run.

No other class has the restriction that you can't do it on the same enemy (the Magma Miner's inflict burn on worms quest lets you burn the same worm over and over, etc.). They need to fix this so that multiple uses of Thread on the same Needle count, or this quest either requires some insane rng, or it may actually just be impossible. I guess you could get one of the powers that detaches threads and try to re-thread them; not sure if that would work because detach thread powers are augments, and I've yet to get these guys to spawn after I've taken the augment.

This is the only quest I have left to do, it is completely blocking my progress in the game. Devs need to fix this one asap. For now, it seems to be either impossible or next to it.

They seem to spawn most consistently in Garden's Edge and Silent Promenade, if you want to give the rng grind a shot. Maybe you'll have better luck than me. By 'most consistently' I mean that you might see two or three in one of those places every few runs.

I get them pretty constant in the gardens edge. Problem is i need low-damage detatch threat as a "1", so basicly lucky sea thingy early or garden as second area ...
that all is annoying ^^

Edit: Just managed to do just that. Had 2 detach spells, pretty mid-tier dmg and garden as second area ... no needles xD

Same issue I've had. They don't seem to spawn in Act II Garden Edge. I've gotten detatch powers a few times and managed to get Garden's Edge, but then none of them spawn.

I think there used to be a lot more of these guys before they patched it so less monsters spawn that direct attack out of the gate. These dudes *always* direct attack, so they probably ended up cutting their spawnrate a bunch.

I highly doubt they intended this quest to be this annoying, but nevertheless here we are.

Now this is also my last quest ^^
Sad there is no way to get the "next" quest for the other 8 rewards at least and leave this randomness for later while simply playing.

As i understand the patch in around 40ish min will change the quest so it can be completed in several runs.

Well more than a year later they didn't and it still suck...

Is there another thread the needle? the one in my logbook right now is just 0/7, nothing about a single run.

was changed month ago
post just got necroed some time ago

to be fair it's doable in two run if you reroll to get garden as first book. Still it's one of the quest that "don't feel really good" to do.
