I was completing a job for the employment agency when I was in a shop, read to buy the third of the five needed Strawberry Blend Slushie. At the top it had the normal "Light Faerie wants you to get her Quiggle Strongman". I decided to see if I could keep on purchasing items, and searching using the Shop Wizard. I could actually. Has this happened to anyone else? As long as I used the back button I could find the rest of the slushies, but I didn't cheat and use it to find the quest item- I doubt it would let me search for something else anyway.

I know that if you had a window or tab open on the Shop Wizard and didn't refresh it after you got the quest it's possible to use it. If you didn't get to it that way, however, it's a new glitch.

I did refresh, so if you are correct, it must be a new glitch.

For me, if I had it before the quest popped up, then it would still work. However, it would not if I opened the wiz after the quest was given.

If it's a new glitch, are you sure you won't get frozen for "abusing a glitch". Even though it's not your fault they might... :x

This has been around for ages I think.

I use it all the time to search for quest items. I don't think of it as cheating, since I just don't always have the time to be asking around for some item.

same thing happened to me too :) except that mine was already searching for an item, and even if you pressed back to the shop wiz page, you'll get the faerie blocking you already... it might be wise to leave an open tab for the shop wiz :D

In a way, it makes sense. The faeries aren't going to go into the Shopwizard's tent and drag you out... are they? :battar:

I've done this once before... (doing a Job, like the thread starter)

I'm pretty sure that as long as you have the shop wizard page listed in your menu for going 'Back' you can use this trick.

It is an oversight... But absolutely harmless. Use it? I guess I wouldn't often... but then Faerie quests usually aren't too commen anyways.

On the other hand, if you can't do this... you could forget about your quest... happened to me recently. I asked on the neoboards (it's fast, bite me :P) and then wandered off to some other part of the sight... and shortly left the computer. Got back an hour or so and the person had neomailed me about the quest *shrug*.
