Quest items

Over last year I collected bunch of quest items as almost everyone else, and now I am looking for easy way to validate if I do need or not those items to clean my inventory bags.

Is there any friendly add-on that will help in this, and what are you doing regarding items that don't clean after completion of quest? How do you cope with inventory and how many quest items do you have?

I am at ~60 items.

Ask the friendly guildie? I am sure you have one of those.

There is no hard and fast method. Most can be tossed. A few should be kept.

Oh, and people who have more than 3 classes are clinically insane.

I know i am wired, but having some skulls and flowers (that I can't give to anyone) is not so cool.

Problem with my current guild is that is alt's guild and alts are known to be ID10Ts. :)

@Cike, some like that I have too, and for the same reason. But there are some that we are required for example to be able to get to certain parts of the game, and I am not sure if you can obtain them again if you toss them.

I would just toss them all, if they are important to a quest/line you can drop the quest and pick it up again anyway, or if you talk to the quest npc they give you another item sometimes

I heard some stories like that. There are items that you have from previous quest, and you can't pick quest you have already completed. I was looking more for a add-on that will tell if I completed quest for given item, or any other way to figure out if I need required item.

I tried to use RunesDB, but that did not get me far.

Why not give us a list of the items you have and we can tell you what is safe to chuck out?

Good idea. Will first ask in my guild, then rest of unknown post here.

Thanks!

EDIT: We might be able to build list of items that are safe to delete from inventory.

if it doesent have the red text of a quest in progress I'll throw it

theres a few you might need that dont have it but a small number which you can redo the quest IF you even had one of those

also most of the items that are needed for chains say right on the item to not throw away

I put those items on my last backpack page, and then any that are still there after I finish a good amount of questing, get trashed. I've only heard of very few quests that are "broken" to the point where you can't actually get an item back if you trash it, and I've personally never had that experience. I think most people tend to be over cautious because of all the hype/stories of not being able to finish a long quest line because of 1 deleted item... to be fair, I'd say what 99.9% of quests don't have that issue? Plus, worst case you can contact support and get a new item after a short (few weeks at most) wait. Except I do try to remember the ones that were really hard to get, like from a boss drop, and try not to trash those.

I mostly quest in bursts though. I quest hard for a few days, then no questing for months... so I'd really hate to keep that stuff in my pack, even if I did need it later. Would rather spend a bit of extra time later to get it back.

One of those items used to be the only way to get even with those dang warden crashers in siege also. I'm sure they've fixed that though, only reason I feel safe to mention it now.
