Professor Garlick's Assignment 2 seems bugged

[charlespg]

keep throwing down the mandrake ,chomping cabbage and Venomous Tentacula at enemys
with no result

[StingingVelvet]

Worked for me. Obvious works for others given there's not a huge discussion about it.

Make sure they all actually hit enemies. That's all I can think of.

[Storm's End]

The Mandrake only lasts a few seconds

If you're doing in that order, you're using the mandrake, it starts and ends, then you throw out the two plants that last time

So the mandrake effect is over by the time the 2 other plants is out, and I think the quest needs all 3 active at once

Point being, throw down the cabbage and venom plants, then use the mandrake.
