Ok, I have one toon that is about half way done on the 3.0 and is on the Foraging part. A few months ago was very frustrating and I put in a 5 hour session foraging in Iceclad. I gave up and took time off from this quest. I thought I built up enough stamina to continue the quest, however, this morning logged in 8 foragers and started clicking... clicking.... clicking... I am now 2.5 hours in and nada. Bleh....
I give up on ever owning a 3.0 and have 6 of the 8 glowing corals for any War who needs them.
