Questions about "quest items"

[JabroniCorleone]

I saw I have a lot of things in my pocket with an orange border around it... These are quest items but a lot of time I never used them... I was asking myself: Did I miss something? Im at the end of act 2 now and I have books, boots for aexample a picture from a goblin. Everythin has a orange border around. Like the ball I get from the dog. I know I can throw the ball and I did... BUT what the heck should I do with the other things? Did I really miss so much stuff? I did every quest I found and I searched ever area to the smalles corner of the map.

Quest items are not necessarily to turn in. At times they lost their use and can be stored safely in the Travellers Chest. Should you need it later it gets added into your inventory automatically.

The boots I think were meat to be given to the duergar captain as a way to get into grymforge, but you can also talk your way in... the drawing I think are the goblin leaders by a goblin kid? It's on a case to case basis, a lot of these just provide information about what you are about to face, other's are items that you can use during a quest, but if you revolve it in another way just become kinda useless, etc.

Or you can give the boots and then take them off of their corpse anyway. Sometimes there are multiple units of the same quest item that you can get from different NPC.
Things like books may be a quest item because you have to read them to make progress on a quest, but you don't have to turn them in to anyone.

That's true, there are many different ways thing can go, and it's hard to keep track of everything with so much going on. Even after 3 playthroughs I am not sure what all of those items do. xD
