You have to use the “Synergetic Reactor” after finishing the Adventure “A Fungus Among Us” with a silver rank.

This part of the collection appears to be bugged, however.

Yesterday I got gold rank in this adventure and another silver rank just now after daily reset.

In both cases I clicked like a mad man on my “Synergetic Reactor” but It never progressed my Precursor collection.

What I did:
- Using the Reactor directly after finishing the Adventure
- Claming the silver/gold chest and clicking on it
- Opening the respective chest and clicking it
- Running around and clicking it
- Returning to start and clicking it
- Doing the Adventure a second time, repeating the former steps
- Clicking on it at various locations of the Adventure Path

Outside of a few easy to obtain things, HOPE III and IV are the only things I have yet to do. Not being able to finish the Collection because the Game is not responding is irritating.

My Suggestion: Drop the whole “Use the Item after doing a specific thing” and change into “just do the thing”. Using the Gloominator for Dusk was fun as you only had to be in the area. Using the Synergetic Reactor is tiresome as you have to be at the right place, at the right time under the right conditions.

Frustrated.

I did this this week and it worked on first try. I used the item right after going through the finishing line, before even accepting any of the chests.

Just finished it on gold (after getting silver shortly after reset) and tried clicking again as soon as the Chest popped and the result screen showed up.

Still nothing and I have no idea what else I can do now besides /bugging it.

Grogba I had the same issue 1-2 months ago. I tried everyday and never got it. I posted on the forum, send ticket in-game. Nothing. Here what I did and It was fixed in like 1hour.

I went in the Support section on top of this website. Top right you will have submit a request, and I wrote an e-mail about my problem. 1-2 hours later I receive the item via in-game mail from the Support team. I can’t say 100% that you will receive a answer that quick, but for me it was super quick.

I only got the Bronze reward screen pop up (because I was too slow) but I clicked my Synergetic Reactor anyway (because I was clueless) yet somehow it gave me the token for my collection. Not that I was complaining as I was super frustrated with that stupid mushroom adventure.

Third day, still not working.

I submitted a request in the support section yesterday but I am still waiting for a response.

Tried it with just getting bronze, then silver, then another gold, nothing.

I despise this adventure, however, I am getting fairly good at it -.-.

Edit: Some players suggested changing the clients language, not so sure about that (Using the German Client)

You, know, a certain clueful wiki editor who has been carefully recording methodologies for getting all of HOPE’s items may have left some information on the appropriate page….

You’re right though, it doesn’t follow the pattern of the other items, or even make any friggin’ sense.

Hmm that wasn’t necessary when I got it the other day. Got silver. Then clicked the generator in the inventory and it worked.

I did notice that the adventure UI took a while to register the fact that I had completed silver. I got silver. Use the generator. Got the thing for hope. Opened the chest for silver. Opened the thing for the mastery point. Got the point. Reset the adventure and then I stilled had to wait several seconds before the UI registered the completion.

When I ran it, I also failed to get it at the end. I also failed to get it at the start of the race afterwards. I figured the positioning might be touchy, so I ran it again and did the reset to get back to the precise start point.

I thought that was the solution, but I like your theory better. A timing bug would make sense for both of us.

For those having issues with this, are you trying it before or after opening the silver/gold chest. There are many achievements where you have to accept the chest and open it from you inventory before progressing the collection. I think this is one of them.

I can’t say I remember, Gator. I do know I didn’t get it from the chest, but I don’t recall at what point I opened it.

Mine was before I opened. The chest from the adventure. Before clicking on the bouncy chest.

I got it to work by completing the adventure, getting silver, and then resetting. Once I hit reset I opened my inventory and used it, and it worked.

I just did it — right after I crossed the finish line and got silver, I opened inventory and used the Generator. HOPE III done! Then I hit reset to return to start and open the silver chest.
