Tasks

Quests

180 hand-written quests made of visit and kill steps. Up to 5 can be active; their visit steps feed the task roll as a Quests category, and they pay XP, items, reroll credits and a few permanent unlocks.

Rules and numbers

1. observed A quest visit step completes when the player interacts with its node: banking, a skilling task or a kill there. A queue task that touches the right node shows a quest icon, so quests at one location finish together.
