Click on her: toggles on/off following
Give her a new flute: she will heal you
Give her a cape: she will meet you outside other towns
Give her a bunch of flowers: she will give you a tapestry thread and you can come up with your own theory of its use.

Overall: She's slightly helpful, but is mostly annoying.

Back to gwen
She takes my flowers, heals me , follows me most places but I dont think has ever given me a quest and won't take the expensive cape I bought for her (and the merchant wont buy it back).
Is it because I ignored her until I got my 2nd class?

Her quest is inactive/incomplete/whatever, the short of it is it doesn't work at this time. Flowers/Cape are a waste of time and money. I could never even get her to accept the cape I blew 100g on which was alot of money to me when i was a noob on my first char in pre. Her flute in post also doesn't seem to have any use at this time, although I've been meaning to try and have it on me when i see her parents in UW, haven't gotten around to that yet.

Silly folks, do you not yet know the secret...?

If you click on her enough times, a portal to the Secret Moa Bird Level opens up.

Most people choose to hate her, aside from that she has no use to most people... for me however, she is a reason to stay in pre-searing. She may be dull but she is better at healing than some monks ive teamed with.

Regarding Gwen not taking the flute and cape, I understand that this will happen if you team with someone who has already given them to her, to get the res sig for example. Even if you go back to her afterwards solo, you still can't pass them on and it would also seem that how ever many flowers you give her she wont part with the shred.
It would seem that if you want the full Gwen experience, don't do either of the quests that need you to party up with someone until you get the shred off her.

THere is a torn girls cape that has appeared outside of Fishermans haven. I have only seen it spawn twice when I was exploring/farming out there.
THere is no info that I am aware of that giving the flute to Sara in UW does something.

Well, I've found out an interesting little fact. If you got the Tapestry Shread from Gwen in Pre-Searing, you can't get the Torn Cape from outside Fisherman's Haven.

I got the Shred from Gwen with my Warrior because I decided I was going to get a collection of all of Gwen's items. Well, when I went to get the Torn Cape, it wouldn't show up. I went out to where it spawns about 20-25 times and it didn't spawn at all. After that, I tried taking the Shred with me, I tried leaving the Shred on the ground, I tried leaving the Shred on a different character, but it still wouldn't spawn. Finally, after about 50-65 tries, I put the Shred in the Trash can figuring I could get the Shred again with another character. On the first run out after I trashed the Shred, the Torn Cape spawned.

Interesting, No?

Sarah doesnt do anything with what ever item you give her. I tried it with my ranger. Kept all the bloody things in storage and brought them all to the underworld. If you click on her she doesnt even say any thing. She only moans about Gwen and the fact she cant find her.

I am guessing that your search buttons are disabled

You should find more than you want to know above. After reading it and beating your head on a wall you will decide to wait until the quest is fixed. As for me I have saved one of every Gwen thing in the game. For now I just ignore Gwen.

Why is it hard to except that this is all just a broken quest? Because Guild Wars is a game full of mystery, unexpected goings on, and surprises. After so many updates it is hard to believe that this is a broken quest. If ANet wanted to fix this quest, they would have done so by now...or would they?

I doubt this will be resolved in the new Factions expansion, as it is set in a different land (Cantha), and thus it would be hard to imagine that Gwen made it that far away from Tyria when you can see her in the Seering cut-scene (correct me if im wrong, been a while since a new character was made).

I know that people (including me) have the broken flute, and the torn cape (dont have it yet myself), but what people seem to struggle with is the "Dead Flower" (if there is such a thing). It seems to be known now that the post-seering gwen items wont drop if yo have pre-seering items from her. But it all seems to farfetched. Why give us a cape, a flute, and a flower if when we get further they have to be abandond? Why give us items with no use? Because ANet can? I refuse to belive that after the many updates that the Gwen issue hasn't been resolved. If i can just have proof that Gwen does reside in the Underworld [screenshot] (as at the mo i only have peoples words for it), or that the bringing of all of the post and/or pre seering items(create a new char and get the shred, flute and flowers, then with a post seering char get the post seering stuff) triggers something with Sarah (or Gwen IF she is there) then i will be happy, until then the mystery remains.

I dont plan on rushing out to find if it is fixed at all, I don't see why i should, it could all be a waste of time...or could it?
