Common Mistakes & Fixes
Quest Prerequisites
Verify Archon Quest Prologue Act III completion before starting. Without Song of the Dragon and Freedom (Dvalin fight at Stormterror's Lair), event NPCs won't respond and trees stay invisible.
Tree Interaction
Use Normal Attacks to destroy trees—not interaction prompts (F key). Players expecting standard collectible mechanics miss this.
Missed Locations
- Tree 12: Check lower wharf platform, not just street level
- Tree 17: Enter Second Life General Store—only indoor tree
- Mental checklist:Check below current level + Enter buildings
Co-op Limitation
Trees only appear in single-player mode. Exit co-op before collection—multiplayer makes trees invisible/non-interactive.
