New Quest TurnIn and Pickup Mechanics
I ran Vashj'ir manually (until WoW bugged, and I didn't get a breadcrumb quest <pout>) as far as I could the other day. Darndest thing I ever saw, a couple of dozen quests in that zone turn into your 'self'. For me, I run Carbonite, and it flashed a little line in my Quest Watch log basically saying 'Click here to complete'. For those that don't run addons, I'm guessing the native WoWclient interface pops up a button or something for you to finish.
A number of these quests that you TurnIn to 'self' provide follow-ons. Silly me, didn't think to record a single quest name that had this behavior. So, today I ran Deepholm, and lo-and-behold, same story. This time, I had the presence of mind to record the quest names. Here's an abbreviated list (the groupings are chains):
The First Reaction
My first reaction was to open Bugtracker #261 since I couldn't figure out how to solve the problem.
It later occurred to me that I might be a NPC, too. Using Honorbuddy to find out my NpcID, and it says its "0". Alas, I've blown past these quests, and am unable to test the theory of turning into 'self', and maybe picking up from 'self' for a chain.
Has anyone else solved the problem?
Has any Profile Writer encountered one of these type of quests, and solved the problem? I'd really, really like to call myself 'stupid', and close Bugtracker 261 because there are plenty other Honorbuddy problems that need to be solved.
But, I'm not going to do that until this is figured out.
cheers,
CJ

One With the Ground
Bring Down the Avalanche
Deathwing's Fall
Bleed the Bloodshaper
Question the Slaves
The Forgemaster's Log
Silvermarsh Rendezvous
Quicksilver Submersion
The Twilight Overlook
Twilight Research
Maziel's Revelation
Maziel's Ascendancy
...and many more just for Deepholm. They are many in other zones also.
