Frequently Asked Questions
Is there one I should do first?
Beginner quests are the best ones to start with.
Is there a limit to the number of quests that can be done?
Nope! Do as many or as few quests as you want.
Does it matter what order I do the quests in?
Not at all! Quests are (usually) unrelated to each other and thus can be done in any order.
How many times can each quest be done?
Unless otherwise stated, once. If more than one attempt is allowed, the quest directions will say so.
How long do I have to complete the quest?
The deadline will be post both on the quest as well as on the Quest Bulletin as it will vary.
If I'm crafting many of the same/similar items, how does that effect my crafting entry?
In the case of mass-crafts, the background requirement is waived, but other requirements (such as showing the process), remain the same per item.
This only applies to either multiple of the same item, or minor recolors of the same base.
If I'm only recoloring an item, and otherwise not changing it, how does that effect my crafting entry?
Very simple changes to items that only consume one dye and the base item do not need backgrounds, but other requirements remain the same.
