I'm in the same boat........still not managed to craft it......this is getting beyond a joke. What with this and boars not dropping their tusks, the game has seriously lost is appeal. Can someone at TL please sort this out before I delete the game and do not returnQuote:

It is frustrating and meant to be, but 30 tries does seem like an extraordinary run of bad luck.
That could be true. It took me 8 or so adventures to find the garnet but it worked 1st time when I crafted the trinket. I didn't start a new adventure either until I had it.Quote:

While I appreciate that they want to drag out storylines so people don't finish them off right away (unless you pay of course ;), the random drop system is pretty irritating and it makes the game boring. I'd rather craft or collect a large pile of difficult to get items and know that when I have the right number its finally over, than have to do the same boring quest over and over and over in the faint hope that the game will spit out the right item. Most of the quests are interesting, but the bits like this really bog the game down.
I don't mind it at all for things like the alicorn, but for a quest where you need to pass in order to continue onwards, its annoying.
Thank you :) because of you, I got garnet trinket since my first try !!Quote:

I have put this one off, but decided to do it today - I'm flooded in. So.... I have my first garnet. My second run at Mount Despair is underway. I am assuming the trinket is made at the magic gorge - yet I have no place in the magic forge to craft it. I checked the workshops, the potion shops the magic pink shop..... Nothing. I deleted and reinstalled my game. Nothing. I rebooted the game. Nothing.
What am I missing? I do not understand! Help!
You just started the 8 hour quest with guaranteed garnet drops? You have to wait for the timer to run out and the quest to craft the tinket to appear :-)Quote:

Oh, well. That is nice to know! I truly appreciate it! Thank you for a swift reply. :)
