I have the quest for the Recipe Researcher and it is not updating. I have all of the 5 different items in my house vault and the quest is refusing to recognize them. I also tried deleting the quest and putting the items in my inventory and the quest is still failing to recognize the quest item. The new quests only go into effect once you hit level 100. The new quests are A Ragged Leather Hide Toolbelt, A Sturdy Larix Mallet, A Sturdy Cadmium Knife, A Sturdy Leonid Basket, and A Ragged Leather Hide Apron. Please look into this as these recipes have always been recognized the tools that were either in our bags or our house vaults.
It has always recognized the items in our inventory. Why would they change the mechanic? It's been recognizing the items for expansions now, since the Research Assistants were launched. This needs to be fixed.
