Ranger Archive

I'm a novice ranger who just bought the Frontiering I skill. Seeing in the description that I would now have the ability to forage "rare" items, I thought I'd give it a whirl.The only apparent difference now is thatI'm getting repeated "Some foraged items have been discarded, because your inventory is full" messages. With nothing in my inventory. Sometimes when I get that message, I will find that I've foraged a normal item, so I'm assuming the "too much in my inventory" bit means that I've dug up something unique, but there's some sort of problem that prevents the rare item from going into my inventory.

Anyone else noting similar difficulties? Maybe this is a problem that happens with scouts as well, but I don't recall noticing it either in late beta or early in the live game. Although, to be honest, I haven't foraged very much in the last week, so maybe it's a known issue.

Yes this is apparently a bug. The same thing was happening during beta right when I got to ranger. I reported it a few times of course but I think they had higher priorites. I was almost a master ranger near the end of beta and never once got anything rare. I often got that same message even with 40 available slots. Just go ahead and bug it and hopefully its gets attention in due time.

If anyone has success at find something rare (something other then foodor bait) please let us know!

Foraging is bugged in Scout also. I have got the full inventory message when I was Master Scout and also during Novice Ranger so far.

You will see this 'inventory full' thing more often, if you advance furher in this tree.

/forage sometimes give you 2 or 3 buffs to your inventory, so this 'inventory full'-thing may be a database locking issue.

I'm going to bug this each time it happens. Its not beta anymore.

Bug it. It was a common thing in beta, and I see (I get this error too on normal foraging with the scout class) that its still not fixed in the Live version.

I noticed that occasionally the backpacks items have counted against the total inventory. If you equip the backpack, and you forage, you probably won't get this bug. It's awork around that you shouldn't have to do, but it's a temporary fix.

I have received this message even before reaching master scout. I have received it with and without a backpack.. plus plenty of space in my inventory. I was getting this message before I even had 50 total items with packback equiped.

I've been getting this bug since the day I aquired the /forage ability as a scout. (I use forage alot. I've never even owned a backpack or sub container.) I believe that it's trying the throw the message. "there is nothing here to Forage" but it's coming out "Some foraged items have been detroyed due to lack of inventory".

I say this because quite a few bugs are wrong error messages being displayed. e.g. Trying harvest animals from extreme distances "your too far away to perform this action" trying to harvest from the 'magic' distance "your not allowed to perform this action in your current state".
