Item: Writhing Choker

[jjo72ddd]

We have Unliving Choker with the help of which we get the Darkness Calling quest. To execute it, you need to get Writhing Choker from the trolls. However, this loot was not observed in the trolls.

There are two versions of this choker which start different quest but which both lead to same quest chain the two items are https://www.wowhead.com/item=38673/writhing-choker and https://www.wowhead.com/item=38660/unliving-choker which you get depends on wether you have completed drakurus chain in Grizzly Hills or more specifically https://www.wowhead.com/quest=12238/cleansing-draktharon

If you are rewarded for this quest Writhing Choker will drop if you are not Unliving Choker will drop if you currently have this quest in quest log neither will drop.

You will only ever receive one of these two items and can only do one for the first quests rest of chain after first quest is identical.

Precisely. All of the objectives and rewards for both chains are equal; the difference is in whether you did the chain from Grizzly Hills through to Drak'Tharon Keep prior to begining this chain. If yes, you get the Writhing Choker and its chain; if not, you get the Unliving Choker. You can never have both.

https://www.wowhead.com/item=38660/unliving-choker currently has condition queststatus none.

should it not be like:

DELETE FROM `conditions` WHERE `SourceTypeOrReferenceId`=1 AND `SourceGroup`=28519 AND `SourceEntry`=38660;
INSERT INTO `conditions` (`SourceTypeOrReferenceId`, `SourceGroup`, `SourceEntry`, `SourceId`, `ElseGroup`, `ConditionTypeOrReference`, `ConditionTarget`, `ConditionValue1`, `ConditionValue2`, `ConditionValue3`, `NegativeCondition`, `ErrorType`, `ErrorTextId`, `ScriptName`, `Comment`) VALUES

There's 2 type of chokers, one if the player didn't interact with quest=28519 and one if the quest=28519 is rewarded, so if the quest is in your journal you will get none, and this is blizzlike.

SourceTypeOrReferenceId, SourceGroup, SourceEntry, SourceId, ElseGroup, ConditionTypeOrReference, ConditionTarget, ConditionValue1, ConditionValue2, ConditionValue3, NegativeCondition, ErrorType, ErrorTextId, ScriptName, Comment
 1, 28519, 38673, 0, 0, 8, 0, 12238, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, , NULL
 1, 28519, 38660, 0, 0, 14, 0, 12238, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, , NULL

After some tests conditions are missing some cases, the player can get both chokers

[Killyana]

The player is still able to get the item 38660 then reward the quest 12238 and get the item 38673, I added a condition for the quest that start with item: 38660 to block the player from starting it, but if he start the quest before rewarding 12238 he will be able to do both chains.

DELETE FROM `conditions` WHERE `SourceTypeOrReferenceId`=1 AND `SourceGroup`=28519 AND `SourceEntry` IN (38660,38673);
DELETE FROM `conditions` WHERE `SourceTypeOrReferenceId`=19 AND `SourceGroup`=0 AND `SourceEntry`=12631;

Well when was looking up this quest on web the other day it suggested that once one choker has dropped even if you destroy it and do quest and then try and get the other choker same one as originally dropped will drop again

[dr-j]

Also needs conditions so that wont drop if player already has the other choker or has the quest from if taken, complete or rewarded?
