What do you need to do for the "Collect or Scrap Coal" daily task?

-

Hey folks! I’m trying to complete one of my daily tasks that involves collecting or scrapping 5 coal. I gathered 5 coal pieces from both the Burning Mine (3 pieces) and Gauley Mine (2 pieces), but my progress hasn’t updated. I definitely have all 5 pieces, and I can’t seem to scrap them either. Can anyone explain what I’m missing?

It means you just need to complete two stages in a raid to finish the task, so don’t stress about the coal part too much!

You might be collecting coal ore instead of actual coal. You need to refine that ore into coal at the chemistry workstation. Also, if you have some coal in your stash box, taking it out counts towards your task progress! Just make sure it’s in your inventory.

Oh my God it worked, thanks so much!

I usually reroll coal challenges because finding coal nodes can be tricky for me, but knowing I can just grab coal from my stash is great! Thanks for the tip!

I was dropping coal at the White Springs for others; hope that counts for something!

CoalHunter99 -

I was wondering the same thing! It sounds like you have to refine the coal ore on the chemistry workbench to actually count for the task.

Got it! Refining makes so much sense now.

If all else fails, just reroll the coal challenge. Might be easier that way!
