Seriously Zos, how many years of Witches festival will we need to beg about the quest item selling?

I know these are onece a year randoms, but come on, that makes it even worse, last year I sold the darn silver fork in accident twice, and the doll as well
This year I have sold again both doll and fork by accident after being careful not to sell it a few times
If you get an item that is needed for a future random encounter, MAKE IT NOT SELLABLE, or at least make it so we can lock it ourselves
It is EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING to sell it by accident and then get THOSE quests and not have the item.
I know it is not tied to an achievement but it is still annoying not to be able to see the interactions because you guys didn't make those items non-sellable... some times we have hundreds of miscellaneous items and we just want to sell them quick and we forget.

If you fast travel everywhere then you will not see these.
When you walk around the zones, any zone apparently, while in the Witches Festival season, you will find random encounters related to this
A person afraid of everything, someone fighting evil, someone that is so paranoid that thinks everyone is a demon, a dude that curses you(Don't pay him, because that curse makes the events be more frequent), a person picking flowers for the memory of a deceased loved one, etc. There are some 20 or so events IIRC.
Some events give you special items, a little cursed doll, a silver fork with an engraving, and some encounters have special options if you have those items
But Zos messed it up(Sorry mods, but you guys did) and didn't mark those as quest items, they marked them as miscellaneous, so if you get them and go to a vendor when your inventory is full, to sell all the miscelaneous stuff, you might sell them by accident... who will go through a list of 100 miscelaneous items slowly? most of us just click sell as fast as possible and when we realize(and I say we, because every years I see complaints about this in reddit and facebook, so I know I am not the only one) it is already too late to buy it back as it is no longer in the vendor's inventory.
It is just a "neat detail" taht some of us have not been able to experience because they messed up the category of the item.Edited by Hygiliack on October 30, 2025 2:43AM3 -
DoofusMax✭✭✭✭Well, dang! I'm pretty sure I just sold that fork.I'm fresh out of outrage, but I could muster up some amused annoyance if required.0 -
