    Title: Game Briefly Hangs/Becomes Non-responsive While Turning in Betty's Collar
    Reproduction Rate: 4/4
    Blocker? No
    Details: The last few times I've done the "Retrieve Betty's Collar" quest (killing the Alpha Wolf and returning the collar to the farmer in Solace Bridge Outskirts) the game client locks of for several seconds, and the Windows loading symbol will appear, with the client greyed out. It's always resolved itself but it's a bit disconcerting. Took a couple clips of it happening, in one you can see the cursor start to become a loading icon, but my capture software doesn't show the greying out.

    @Coswald_Dirthmire , was collecting this reward the first time you obtained a reward/loot in a session? I ask because the first loot-acquisition in a session always has an extra delay before that action completes. Next time, before you turn in the reward, could you maybe kill and loot a rabbit first, and then turn in the Betty's collar quest? I'd like to know if there is a difference to your experience.

    By this time I would have completed Sedgwick's first quest (Maple Wood), and looted the Alpha Wolf itself, along with the Beta Wolves, some chickens, completed the farmer's Cotton quest etc. (Want to make sure all that would qualify, rather than there being something specific about rabbits)

    Thanks for the list. Collecting any loot item should work to force that "first loot pause," including quest reward skinning reward, or common NPC looting reward.

    I'm a little stumped. There's no reason which quest and it's reward delivery should work any different to any other quest where the NPC gives you loot in a conversation. Thanks for the report and additional info. Added as issue #70189
