Some Tips on "Power Questing"

Post by mts » Thu Dec 29, 2005 8:09 am

when doing quests, there are three reasons to follow through on the quest:
1. there are xp rewards for completion.
2. there is a "lewt" reward for completion.
3. you want to see how the storyline advances.

there are ways to make doing these quests much quicker and more enjoyable... the best way is to ditch quests that require alot of running around without getting to kill much. and focusing on quests where you get a tangeble reward.

for the most part... the best storyline the alliance side has is the whole defias brotherhood. most of the quests in goldshire and westfall covers this. in addition, the deadmines and stockade instances are also linked. to do all these quests and get all the xp and rewards is very advisable.

unfortantely, the storyline gets much more muddled after that. there will no longer be any epic storylines running accross many quests like that until you get to lvl 50. which means that after 25, you can pretty much pick and choose the quests you do.

i suggest going to www.thotbott.com to get your information on quests. there are alot of spoilers.. but for the middle quests, you won't be missing out on much.

to get you started here are some quests that should be done:

http://www.thottbot.com/?qu=618
(combat trinket around lvl 45)

http://www.thottbot.com/?qu=778
(burst run trinket around lvl 35)

http://www.thottbot.com/?qu=1475
(another fighting trinket before lvl 50)

these are easy to solo for character of the right level and give a reward that will not go obsolete in a long while.

more to come as you guys get higher in level.

this is very helpful! with there being soooo many quests to do in many different areas it is very possible to miss out on a chain of quests w/ a very nice reward or story line to follow. or the quests seems boring at first or you dont feel like running around, so you drop it... since you have many higher lvl toons you know more about this than many of us that post here.

it would be great if you could add more of these as you come along them.

thanks m8 :D
