Alchemist unlocked, no mortar quest

[ThyNecromancer]

So, I unlocked the alchemist and I have recipes that need a mortar, but I don't know where it is and I don't have a quest for it.

Did I miss something?

It took me a while until he got me the Quest. I did other stuff first (Carpenter, unlocking the second tower etc.) before he got me the quest.

Yeah I started unlocking other people and was really hoping I didn't have to start a new game lol

Thanks, I'll kill and wait until it pops

Have you rescued the farmer and carpender NPCs already? At least before the update this was required to get the next quests.
It will happen with other crafting stations and recipes as well....you'll see recipes, but can't craft them right away, because you need another crafting station to get.
That's normal and nothing to worry about, so long as you have other quests to do.
For some quests you'll need also a certain level to show up. ( Not for the mortar quest)

working on the carpenter next. I have the farmer then starting farming mats.

Thanks for the heads up. A little odd to have crafting/recipes with materials you don't have until a later quest. They should unlock when you get the item.
