It does seem like they ask for a lot more SBQ at the Blue Building than they used to, though? I mean, obviously this is just anecdotal and about me, but it seems like I get asked for at least one piece per day, and considering that you only get five quests and you lose ranks when you quit, that's a lot.

Cinthia just asked me for a Standard of the Lion. There aren't even any available in user shops or trades. Cinthia shouldn't be asking for items like that.

While we're talking about quests, why is it that Mori is the only regular quest NPC to ask for SBQ items? No one else has ever asked for them, but she asks me for at least one or two a day. That's pretty obnoxious.

Quentin just asked me for a Not funny or fun.

Its got to be that stupid hover price. The standard has the same 100 price.

Cool, glad my 30 second doctored screenshot can get some mileage here:

She does this semi-frequently with that particular item, and her and Quentin both have asked me for Standard of the Lion before. End the madness.

Not only is Cinthia fond of asking for the richard plushie, but today she asked for this. On top of that, multiple other quest givers have been asking for items upwards of 200k+ (that aren't from Saggitarius' expensive tastes), including items that belong in the Subeautique.

This isn't a recent thing, and happens with regularity for me, but I didn't think to post about it until I got the request today from Cinthia for yet another reading drive item (the one linked above).

Quentin, Cinthia, Mori, Pete, tend to be my regular/repeat offenders for this nonsense. I've got a collection of screenshots at this point because I find it funny to boggle at them with my roommate.

Colour me surprised to find out it's a common thing with other people, lol. I guess I'll post sooner next time.

Asking staff how price today/overall price is not impacting stuff like this and IH will get you no where. I've been ignored twice with direct pings. Maybe they've realized they're completely wrong.

The other obnoxious item that Cinthia asks for frequently (and has for a really, really long time) is the Brainling.

It's routinely in the millions... Not buying that for Cinthia, ever...

Looking through the Prize Shop it appears that the following items have the same number

A bunch of other items are stuck at 100k

Since I've never been asked for Invisible Cat or Lord Eslan, I'm not sure if it's related to the price.

^

The numbers could be right if someone was quitting and sold a bunch for real cheap. Then, since those items rarely get bought in SS, the overall price doesnt change. :/

Oh look, today the Recycle Beast is asking for TWO reading drive items. Isn't that just lovely?

Cinthia just now asked me for .

The prices in the hover aren't even skewed like the RD items she and Quentin have been asking for. Should she be asking for stuff like this?

Cinthia asks for game prizes.

I know she asks for game prizes. She's been doing that for months now.

The problem is the PRICE, as I actually pointed out in my post:

The RD items have been showing an estimate of 100 sP. The item she asked me for has a MUCH higher estimate. If this price is supposed to affect what Cinthia asks for, why did she request an 800k item?

Is she meant to be limited in which game prizes she can ask for? If so, it's a completely separate issue than Quentin & Co. asking for items with wonky hover prices.

@ Karen As fas as I know. There have been complaints about her asking for RD items as well, and it's been blamed on the wonky estimates. Edit: Apparently she does have a limit.

She's asked me for RD items two or three times, and now this Shinwa booster. All around the same time Quentin was reported asking for RDs. Oddly, I haven't had the same issue with Quentin.

Edit: Well, Quentin's now asking me for stuff way more expensive than his usual requests. Just got asked for .

Cinthia has just asked me for a Fierce Ice Blade, which is also being asked for by the Recycle Beast today.

Should they be asking for items that can only be received as a vending item?

The Recycle Beast is asking for Familiars today...that's ridiculous.

So either... Familiars need to be rereleased for 100sP a pop, or ALL OF THIS needs to be fixed.

Gollum asked me for one again today. RB is asking for them for the second day in a row. The fuck, no one is giving you ponies.

someone really needs to fix this.

Yeah, I can't imagine it being overly difficult to just change the information on the ~two items that seem to be causing the most problems (ie, the Familiar and the Standard of the Lion).

Either that, or put them in a main shop so their value actually does go down, lol.
