Glowing stick missing in Siptah

A few weeks ago I transfered my Exiled Lands toon to Siptah. Started to get acquainted, then started building. Made a glowing stick to start exploring at night. Then I realized I could not make a new one despite the fact that I learned this feat at the Dredge in EL. Now I’m stuck making generic torches that don’t work underwater. What gives?

@Ragnaguard, you did a lot of these server transfer tests, did you loose the recipe on the way?
@FullMetalMadcat did you use by accident the feat potion? There are several reports that they are bugged and you loose knowledge you shouldn’t.

No, the feat was previously acquired at the Dredge last winter, and I was capable of crafting glowing sticks and glowing standing sticks but for about two days. Then, when I wanted to make more the ability was gone from my hand-crafted panel with only the regular torches remaining.

Well that’s bad, I am really sorry m8, I don’t know what to say :man_shrugging:. People here run tests but they didn’t stay to long, I will summon @Frillen too. Frillen, how long your transferred character stayed in Siptah?

Being able to make it for two days makes me wonder what could have changed from before to after. Is it possible there was a server reset during that time?

There’s another thread trying to work out some elements of these lost feats (though in those cases yellow lotus potion seems to have been involved - so might be a different issue, or different parts of the same issue) - link here:

@Narelle might the difference of FullMetalMadcat’s experience also be useful data for your investigations?

Sounds similar to the other two. Feats were there until a potion was taken.

@FullMetalMadcat did u drink a potion to reset your feats?

Yes I did at some point. It was after I discovered that I could not make glowing sticks anymore. I thought the recipe might be somewhere in Siptah but everyone I asked about this knew nothing.

Ok, but the ability to make glowing sticks isn’t a feat you can reacquired when you respec, it’s something you learn from a tablet at the dredge, so it shoud not go away if you respec. Also, this feat, or this recipe, is nowhere on Siptah.

What’s the solution then?

The recipe goes away due to bug of the yellow lotus pot, this was happening on Siptah for some time now. Solution…you might have to transfer back to re-learn the glowstick.

Exactly what @Kent said. If you need someone to join your clan until you return in Siptah I believe you will find volunteers here.

Don’t want to transfer back to EL and lose everything I built in Siptah. I’m in a clan but unsure how to proceed. This situation would better be resolved with a patch to correct the bug, or to put the recipe somewhere in Siptah.

To be clear @FullMetalMadcat, the recipe DOES exist on Siptah, but it is locked behind soo much RNG that your chances of it dropping are something stupid like, 100,000:1. Don’t get me wrong, I agree that the ‘best’ solution is for the devs to correct the bug, but holding your breath won’t get you that recipe back. At least if you transfer back to EL for a day, like @Kent suggested, you are guaranteed to get the recipe. Best of luck to you.

I don’t think so. The recipe doesn’t exist in the admin so it’s impossible to spawn it. You can spawn as much glowing stick as you want but you can’t learn the recipe to make it and repair it that way. While all the recipe that spawn on Siptah exist in the admin panel and can be spawned that way.

Maybe. I didn’t try to spawn shematics fragments yet. I don’t really understand how they work and how you get them in game.
There are other recipes that can’t be spawned from the admin panel, like the Daggers of Dagon and other weapons you learn in Dagon’s dungeon that need Dagon’s Scraps to be crafted. As far as I know you can’t get them on the IoS.

Dagon scale can be obtain from the big fishmen near and inside the vault. I gotten the infused aloe potion recipe only to find out it heal lesser than the concentrated aloe potion :sob:.

There’s 2 fishmen vault : Harbor of the Drowned and Harbor of the Twice Drowned. I did the 2sn but not the first and didn’t get any Dagon Scale but a lot of scraps with another name that I don’t know how to use, but I kept nevertheless because I hate to waste loot. :wink:

When you read about all the nice thing you get from floatsam and each time you open one you mostly get woods, stones and bones… You understand how much RNG hates you. :sob:

I am here because @stelagel called me :slight_smile:
Yes I’ve done a lot of tests on the transfers, but I haven’t got much new to tell, @Ragnaguard and others have already said what I suspect might be the cause of losing recipes and decent solutions, I can only confirm their theories on what might have gone wrong…
I’ve never experienced the loss of recipes myself, but seeing how many that complained about losing certain recipes using the yellow lotus potion, I simply avoided using it, instead I simply ate Fragment of Power to get more feat points and if I had the recipe to reset feats and attributes separately, I only ever reset the attributes which I have done before all my char transfer tests, and so far not a single recipe is lost during the transfer, there are however some small things that they forget like attuned obelisks, but other than that the actual transfer didn’t cause any problems for me at all, they have all been very successful so far :slight_smile:

Personally I would like to see this Recipe made learnable on the Isle of Sitah from a tablet like on the Exiled Lands, a diary, or some other interactable artifact. After all its not like it is a powerful artifact which would create imbalance. Rather it is just a nice QoL feature.

@Wolfrider4594 I think you need to skin the bodies of the fishmen to get the dagon scales.

Those scraps you’re not sure of: if you stick them in a furnace they will smelt into eldarium
