Enhanced Quests

From ProphWiki

Another huge idea that will take lots of time and effort to imp: quests.

In brief, think combination of aquest and mini-quest. Combined with eq binding, this could be AWESOME. It's like aquest because you get xp (if applicable), and you get gold (possibly more gold if you don't need xp?), as well as another reward for the quest. It's like mini-quest because these can be defined by builders with their mprogs (or something of the the sort -- the actual technical side will have to be figured out later). Thus, you in effect have area-specific aquests, with unique rewards (not just aqpts, xp and gold every time.

However, instead of the aquest being a single target, it will be harder. Example:

Eagle chieftain in Morindland offers you a quest. Your objective is: -Kill 5 ice demons -Kill 5 fire demons -Kill 5 imps Your reward will be: -X gold And your choice of: -Equipment A -Equipment B (Xp will be calculated automatically, just like aquests now)

Each quest can only be completed one time. Therefore, you can never get both equipment A AND B. Only A OR B. Then, it's even possible to say, once this quest is finished, the mob can offer you another quest in the series. Maybe quest2 is to kill crazy magicians and tribesmen for a gold and a choice between two different pieces of equipment.

Ideally, the eq can then be class-targeted. One piece can be better for casters, while the other is better for melee damage dealers.

Again, this is just a BRIEF and GENERAL explanation of the idea. More discussion is welcome and quite necessary.
