scar

[lilwolfie420]

is anyone else at the point in scar where you have to grow the nurturing orb? game say it may take a few days. has anyone fully grown it yet or will it actually take a few days (yes ik its to early to tell)

[sj_tiernan]

supposedly the even more growth elixir instantly will grow it but i have not tested this as i have made the potion but the orb doesnt need water yet and i dont know if it will work while it is already watered

[Seasiren]

Well I am about 36 hours in and still not ready... so yes.

[kitsuneblue]

these missions that are sit and wait for multiple days are not fun to me, the rest you actively act to finish it so it feels like you are able to do something, but when you just have to watch an unclear timer it feels like you aren't able to do anything and is not something I for one like.

We already waited for so long for this update! This is ridiculous. And we can't even do his other quests

hi! once the plant became dry again i used the even more miraculous elixir and it instantly made the plant ready to harvest. using it at all makes everything instant to harvest

I heard of this before. But its not intended to use that. Some people broke their game by using it. So if people are aware of the fact and interested in taking this risk.. well fine. Even if its annoying to wait, I will bc I dont wanna mess around with a broken game afterwards - it will be more annoying to wait for a fix than just wait 2 days longer to grow the plant normally.

The elixir is applied to your watering can. I did that two days ago and I've used it on several hundred crops and so far it hasn't made any of them instantly ready for harvest. I am also going on 42 hours since I planted the orb and it still isn't ready for harvest even though I've watered it (with the improved watering can) several times. The quest text says "a few days" even with the enhanced tool, so I am expecting at least one more day before the orb is ready for harvest. Watering wild flowers and herbs that have dried out makes them instantly ready for harvest, but that's normal and has nothing to do with the fast-growth formula.

Yes, the quest one is to improve it. But now you can craft 2 different elixir at the crafting station. A bigger one and a smaller one. The bigger one should instantly grow plants - but I havent tried it :)

who came up with this idead to make us wait oh lord

I have to say its very poorly implemented. I sometimes understand the timegated mechanics but in this case I must agree. If the community has to wait for the patch with only 1 new character and in the end they have to wait a few more days to really play the storyline its just not thought through.

I didn't know that the game had a wrong and right way to use items that they made accessible. Sorry I wasn't aware of this. People were curious so I decided to try it out on my own game and then posted my results. Don't know why you seem curious to try it on a previous post but are being rude replying to mine.

Sorry but I think youve got the wrong idea - I´m not rude at all. I only wanted to inform people who read this thread too about the risk they take if they use it on the quest-item (bc you have not mentioned that). I never was curios to try it on the quest item. That the new implemented elixir is growing plants instantly is intended and I tried it now by myself but its not intended to use it on the quest item which has a timegated mechanic otherwise the quest would not be signed as "this could take a few days"

Someone in a separate thread said they finished their Orb.

I still wait for it to even tell me it's thirsty. I keep watering it anyway and yesterday it rained.

Why would they give us an uncertain task that lasts days, after we all were so eager to get going on the new storyline. sigh

The storyline literally said we could make that and use it...I thought??

The timing of that potion is not accidental.

Others have reported using it and finishing the Orb.

It did for me. Watered some pumpkins, and POOF instant pumpkins.

I'm not sure it should last for "several hundred crops" either so maybe yours got stuck?

Your wording was rude. This quest just came out so how would I know about a bug instantly? I'm not making a masterclass walkthrough of the game. I wrote a small little comment about something I tried that other people were wondering about. And as you said the quest says it "could" take a few days, meaning it could also be interpreted as it doesn't have to.

Mine grew in about 3 days i believe. as long as you planet it right under the statue.
