Is there a tree poisoning badge I don't know of?

Because all the egg plants on Strucote Stacks and Shillrigg Tiers are being poisoned constantly.

  • There is a quest called "The Last Egg", might be a reason.

  • There are also people who just like to poison trees to grief others. Could be any number of reasons.

  • there's a planting badge, maybe people are poisoning trees in order to plant another one after?

  • Yes, there are badges for clearing dead trees. Also badges for antidoting so... all fun.

  • I'll get my planting and antidoting badges soon then thanks to him. He's just digging and poisoning them whenever possible.

  • Wow, how horrible. People with the Last Egg quest basically need small new egg plants, no need to ruin somebody's attempt to help.

  • Sounds like griefing to me. I don't see the fun it that, but it takes all kinds.

  • There's a series of Mulcher badges for tending patches and the Whack Job series for chopping down dead trees. Poisoning trees is the only way to get them, as far as I can tell.

  • You don't need to poison the egg plants to do the Last Egg quest, so if someone's poisoning them for that reason, they're being very silly.

  • YMFaery, you are correct... you don't NEED to poison to do Last Egg... BUT it is a simple way to do it that doesn't involve luck of the draw of having 4 or more friends running around with you.... BUT they'd only need to poison one and would probably hang around.

    Also not that some poisoning is by mistake (speed pet/water/harvest with poison in your bags and it is easy to make a mistake.

    And some folks might just enjoy poisoning trees. Which gives others the joy of planting new trees. The circle of life. Can you feel the love tonight. Hakuna matata.
