Yes we have seen this mentioned a few times, but i never believed until now, well wouldnt say believed, but more or less feel like it may be true.
Im currently working on Kail's Magic Coin quest and hunting Kail's Blood Dragons, i also remembered that Fallen Orc Shamans drop the quest update for Stolen Infernium Ore so i fired up that quest again while i hunt for the Blood Dragons.
Now without knowing any real drop rate info, im ethier inclined to say that the Stolen Dignity quest is slowing down my drop rate for Blood Dragons, because i kill archers and shamans back to back in one area were there is nothing but the correct type of shamans. After 3 hours soild grinding for these coins i walk out with 1 Blood Dragon ( from Shamans ), 7 Gold Golems ( from Archers ) and 15 Stone Infernium Ore ( from Shamans).
Not really sure on the acual drop rate like i said, but i have ethier got a really bad string of luck in reguards to the Blood Dragons or the Stolen Ore quest is making it appear that way.
Going to try it again for 3 hours in same spot tomorrow with out the Stolen Ore quests running and see how it goes.
Can't multi quest on mobs...or at least couldn't in C4. Haven't paid terrible attention to it lately. But it was less efficient to do fishing shot, etc because mobs will only drop one quest item type.
I have both quests on my SR and I don't see a problem. Not now, not in C4
Blood Dragons = Blood Medusas in a way and it's the rarest of the 3 coins to get. Plus if the Shaman morphs into a Tiger, there's no way you'll get a coin from it. You may get the Ore though since it is now a tiger.
For me, after doing both quests for about 3 weeks, here are rougly my numbers if I remember correctly:
Can't multi quest on mobs...or at least couldn't in C4. Haven't paid terrible attention to it lately. But it was less efficient to do fishing shot, etc because mobs will only drop one quest item type.
yeah half of the problems with L2 is not having enough quest. and different type of mobs to quest on.
So you run into this problem alot.
I think they fixed the fishing shot quest that cancled out other quest way back when.
and good example of quest mobs to none quest mobs is: catacombs... for some reason they gave you 2 quest but the same mobs for bouth quest are on the same type of mobs.
rather then off-seting 1 quest with the other they gave the same mob base, which was very stupid.
argo for blank scroll is fine, none argo for dimentional fragments is what they should of done. but they made it so that argo = both blank scrolls and dimentional frags. which is unballenced!!
I think the most ballenced quest area that I've ever seen was runing kaili's coin while doing like 2 other ones in FP. stollen ore (out dated quest btw...any one still do this any more?)
then you also got coin quest while hunting the fishing quest in outlaw forest.(got to kill like 100 mobs for a item then return to town)
Can't multi quest on mobs...or at least couldn't in C4. Haven't paid terrible attention to it lately. But it was less efficient to do fishing shot, etc because mobs will only drop one quest item type.
In other words, you can't do 4 quests on one mob.
I never encountered that problem.
/sigh
In other words, I kill a mob, it will drop one or the other quest item, but not both. So if you have 2 quests and are killing one monster, you aren't getting 2 simultaneous quests completed from killing one single mob.
I havent run into this problem either. I have done a few of the lower level quests that need the same mob and have gotten quest items for both at the same time. 2 that come to mind are DE quests in SODA.

This was the case in C4.
In C5, I got both the Sweet Fluids and other drops at the same time regularery. It also worked for class change drops + other quest drops. No idea about the Blood Medusa/Infernium Ore combination, though.
I did the 3 Quests for the Classchange of an elven scout
into Silver Ranger
I had to hunt in Cruma Marshland for 2 Quests at the same time. (same mobs)
I noticed the 2 quests effected each other
- One Quest was to collect 1 item of ...
- the otherone was collect 20 items of ...
- I had to kill about 30+ mobs and nothing happened
- Then i got 1 item for both quests at once
- from then on i got nearly an item for the 20 item quest every 2nd mob.
In other words, I kill a mob, it will drop one or the other quest item, but not both. So if you have 2 quests and are killing one monster, you aren't getting 2 simultaneous quests completed from killing one single mob.

Well i am getting Stolen ore and Blood Dragons from the shamans, just getting alot more Stolen ore, so i guess its just Stolen Ore is alot more common then Blood Dragons.
I havent yet got a Blood Dragon and Stolen ore of the same Shaman though.
In reguards to the person above who said that the shamans morph into a Sharp Talon Tiger look alike, you cant get the Blood Dragons at all of these, there is shamans out there that never change into Tigers at all, there mostly around the area you port into from Aden.

/agree I have noticed this and especially the fish shot quest, really makes the other quest items drastically reduced.
Alot of the coins quets drops have been nerfed. Including the Royal Coins. Bloods are hard to get, regrdless of whether o rnot you have inf ore quest registered.

No, this wasn't the case of any chronicle. You can and could easily get multiple quest rewards from the same mob.
@the cata quests I get a ton of frags and blank scrolls sometimes both off 1 mob
@ the coin quest I hat the song of hunter quest and the coin quest and have had no probelms with it so far
@the sweet fuild quest seens like it hinders some quests a bit but not that much
@speaking about quests in general the arogant search quest at the part were you have to bloody the white fab is a pain in the butt Ive been huning the plat tribe shamans and plat tribe overlords for a week now 2-3 hrs in each party and everyone else in the party has theirs and I still dont have mine :( and I really dont feel like aborting the quest and redoing it just to see if its a bug
