Farever Gotta Catch One Quest

What this quest is for

Gotta Catch One is the best early page to use when a player is stuck on Farever’s companion tutorial loop. The confirmed anchor is simple: the quest is tied to H. Catchum in Navelin, and the strongest verified tool lead is Large Butterfly Net.

The page should not pretend the entire quest log is solved. We have reliable database evidence for the NPC, quest association, and capture net wording, but we still need a readable quest log and reward screen before publishing exact reward numbers.

You already claimed a free companion	Return to H. Catchum and check whether the quest completes	Reported
You need the exact reward	Wait for a quest turn-in screenshot	Needs verification

Recommended walkthrough

Start in Navelin and find H. Catchum. The spelling matters because several early notes wrote the name without the space, but the database string uses H. Catchum.

Once the quest is active, your goal is to have one companion. The cleanest manual route is to obtain Large Butterfly Net, equip it, and use its capture skill on a valid roaming companion. The item is not just a generic tool in the data: FareverDB and MetaForge identify it as a Rare CaptureNet, and its wording says it can try catching world companions.

If you have a free companion from the shop, test that route before farming. Sportskeeda and a Steam community report both say the quest can complete from a free store companion, but that behavior should stay labeled as reported until we see the completion state in the current build.

What to screenshot next

For this page, the highest-value screenshots are the quest log objective, H. Catchum’s dialogue, the Large Butterfly Net vendor listing, and the turn-in reward panel. Those four images would move the page from a proof-labeled walkthrough to a mostly confirmed quest guide.

Internal link logic

After finishing this quest, the player naturally needs the companion system page. If they learned the Collection Menu while claiming a free companion, they should also move to the mounts guide, because mounts, gliders, companions, and cosmetics are handled in the same broad UI area.

Common mistakes

The first mistake is searching for H.Catchum without the space. The confirmed spelling is H. Catchum, and that is the form this wiki should use in headings, tables, and internal links. Misspelling the NPC name makes the page less useful for players and also weakens the exact entity signal.

The second mistake is treating the free companion shortcut as permanent. It may work in the current Early Access flow, and it is useful enough to mention, but the quest page should still tell players to verify the quest state after claiming the companion. If the shop changes, the manual Large Butterfly Net route remains the safer evergreen explanation.

The third mistake is publishing rewards before seeing the turn-in screen. A quest reward can change by patch, level, account state, or completion method. Until the reward panel is captured, the page should say that rewards are not verified instead of inventing XP or item values.

Editor notes for future updates

When a screenshot arrives, update this page in a strict order. First, confirm the quest log wording. Second, confirm the completion condition. Third, confirm the reward panel. Fourth, add the vendor route for the Large Butterfly Net only if the vendor name, town, and cost are visible. That order keeps the page useful without mixing strong database facts with weak community memory.

If the quest log says something broader than “catch one companion,” keep the exact UI wording in the walkthrough and move the older phrasing into Reported claims. If the free store companion no longer completes the quest, remove that from the recommended route and keep it only as an older reported behavior.
