Well, I understand that the quest is there to punish people for getting to lvl 74 without having stockpiled Hay in their newbie days, but...

Well, first thing I checked the database, assuming they probably added a lvl 70s monster with Hay drops. Seems they didn't. Geez, how could I be so naive. This is an F2P game, after all.

So what's the "intended" way of doing this? Getting my last shirt ripped off by overpriced Hay sellers? Farming for Hay with a lvl 74 char, with drops penalized down to 0%? Making new chars, farming Hay at the turtles, deleting and remaking as they level up?
Slow progress, game is getting way too grindy :-( Quests I still hope to be able to do some day: FB39, General Feng

    You just listed the only ways possible b:shutup

    Unless someone is willing to give it to you for free XD

    I don't know if you have looked here, but it lists the mobs that drop hay. Other than that, I have no other ideas. >.<

    It's not really worth doing that quest period - but if you want to do it, just make an alt veno, and take a day to get it to level 30 and farm out the hay on antelope pups.

    You're supposed to ignore that quest because even if you did farm 50 hays, you could easily sell them off and get far more EXP/Spirit/coin from it than the quest gives.
