Hi all!
I've done everything right with the incense quest (and gone over it with people who have done it before) and yet I still can't get the holy water to do anything with the incense... any possible idea what I could be doing wrong?

The incense quest was coded before herbs were made into heaps so there may be some weird bug that doesn't trigger every time. I'll take a look.

I remember doing it after herbs changed, and I am pretty sure I succeeded, however I also remember I too struggled with getting the holy water working. Afraid I don't remember what I did to get it to work. My theories are:
1. It's like Ckrik says, there is something about herb heaps that causes issues.
2. If you're following a quest document, it could be wrong / not up to date, and listening more closely to the NPCs and trying to do it without trusting the docs blindly might help. Not saying you ARE trusting the docs blindly, just saying it's a common cause of quests "not working" that probably has happened to most players at some point.

Ok. I just checked the code and tested a couple things. Everything seems to be in order. There's no bad interaction with heaps.
Here's a big hint: double check that you have the exact ingredients necessary. Some ingredients in the incense look very similar, but only the right ones will make incense for you.

Seems to have been a user error. Thank you!! Finally got it working!

I heard from a friend to a friend that there is a bug in the Morgul code. If you go good aligned very quick you can do a good aligned quest and then go back to evil.
Test and see if that might be true?
