Is the iron ration hand in bugged? I have tried handing one to every type of orc and they take it and put it in their pack but no update?
Maybe not post in the Bug Reports forum first for something that you don't really know if it is a bug or not. It's not a bug... it's you. See: https://forums.daybreakgames.com/eq/index.php?threads/orcs-on-ice.262467/ in the Veteran's Forum.
