So I checked Wiki after hearing rumors that you can trade 50 red iris flowers to Professor Yakkington for a small equipment pack and it says you can. But no matter what I do, the yak won't give me the pack. I've clicked on him a million times with the 50 flowers in inventory and nothing. What's going on?

Are you talking to the Pre-Searing Professor Yakkington? Because that's the one you need to talk to.

No, I didn't know it was limited to Pre. That's pretty stupid...but thanks for your answer. Guess I farmed 50 flowers for nothing.

While I prefer the old wiki, sometimes the official one has more information.

EDIT: correction, the info is on both wikis.

I think he's referring to the post-searing Professor Yakkington who is/was in Regent Valley next to Nicholas the Traveler. I was under the impression he was supposed to give you the small pack for 50 iris's but maybe it's a bug. (Either he's supposed to give it, or he's not supposed to be there.)

The pre-searing Yakkington is the one who trades flowers for small equipment packs. Post-searing Yakkington just sniffs at ya. If you want one in post, you'll have to buy it from the merchant.
