I clicked through everything many times, until I started to get @_@. That was all I got. No badge.
So, I abused the 1 Inf Emp and Astral Merits instead, and unlocked stoof!

Hi,
I cannot get the Avid Reader to award! (Seems a few others have the same problem)
I am on a newly rolled alt on the Beta with no transfers that have arrived yet.
I have levelled to 50 and have used the new beta only "Free merits" system to unlock and "Very rare" slot my Alpha.
I am on a redside Thugs/Pain Mm.
I talked to Prometheus before I unlocked Alpha and saw no option dialogue tree to do with the "Well". I did go through all the other tree options.
I then did the same after unlocking and slotting Alpha. Got the same no "Well" option result.
Prometheus keeps saying Mender Rameil should concentrate on the Storm (or something to that effect) He is basically blowing me out and refering me back to the Mender.
I then spoke with Ramiel who was very happy to give me his arc missions to unlock the Alpha even though it was already unlocked and slotted!
Still no joy from Prometheus.
I then ran the entire arc from Ramiel (and on my new Thugs/Pain with lvl 50 SO's slaughtered Trapdoor and the next 2 Heroes which was a hoot) and after completing the arc and finishing with Ramiel (got all end of arc rewards). Again spoke to Prometheus.
Absolutely the same as from the start. No "Well" dialogue tree options and so no Avid Reader award.
I wonder if it is to do with new alts on the beta server? I wonder if anybody can try a transfered in non alpha alt and an alpha unlocked alt and see what happens.
It would be real helpful if somebody could post a screenie of the dialogue screen with the "Well" option on it so we can compare. Thanks

I believe the new dialogue options only appear for characters who have successfully completed one of the Incarnate Trials.

It's that last option that seemed to do it.

Interesting. My charcter has all 5 Incarnate Slots filled, and that option never showed up.
Sounds like it's time to /bug!

As I mentioned in the thread that Zombie Man linked to, I have all badges on my main and I still didn't get the Avid Reader badge. Only trial not done is the Keyes of course (haven't had time lately).
I don't remember if that "Tell me more about the Well" option was there (I think it was) but....won't be able to check until Tuesday at the earliest.

It would be nice if folks, as they progress in incarnatehood, if they would keep checking in with Prometheus to find out what triggers that new dialogue branch. Follow the branch with:

Just a heads up, and its not in the patch notes yet, but I just got Avid Reader for going through the new conversation tree with Prometheus on beta.
Always remember, we were Heroes.
