Greetings long time lurker..
I missed the step to talk to Muada and /say make the totem and I already made the Gilded Resonating Clay from the first combine. Muada will not give me the Essence. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
You've probably already sorted this but I made the exact same mistake yesterday. Just had to petition it and the GM will de-combine the items and leave you with the original combine items. I was even lucky enough to get possibly the only portable tanaan kiln in the game....
