This Is My Frustrated Face....Messed Up Quest

I have a quest to spend 1511 favor points at once.  Do you know how long it took me to get enough emblems to have 1511 favor points at a shrine?  It took me a long long time.  Then I go to spend the points only to realize I cannot spend them, as I have no skills left to learn.  This skill should be fixed so that you can spend your points even without a skill!

  • Lol I was wondering how people would do this. Being at such a high level that they could even manage it, to me, means they likely have few if any skills left to learn.

  • Yes, obviously poor planning on my part.  But I don't like the idea that it could be impossible to finish a quest, I think all quests should be possible.  There should be some way to spend points if you don't have a skill, maybe an option to spend them for the quest?

  • just wait for the unlearning skill to become available.

  • Yes, but will it become available before launch?  And even if it doesn't, you might be underestimating my OCDedness.  Everything has to be finished!  First the skills, now the quests, then the trophies and achievements, until I die

  • I was in the same place Laurali, I got the two shrine quests after I had completed all my learning, but I prepared and waited and sure enough along the two new quests for the Rook. Hope some new ones come up soon for you.

    But yeah we get to do it all over again...soon

  • That was me a couple of tests ago, then they gave us the 2 new skills so I managed it last test. Get the shrine ready and hope for a new skill :)

  • I don't know when the skill comes up in the normal flow of things. (Weird thing about testing is that when things get added late, a quest that is suppose to happen at level 15 suddenly appears at level 40.) Potentially, yes, this quest (and any "spend favor point quests", needs an extra trigger that hold it back until there are skills to learn.

    On the other hand, they do plan to introduce new skills all the time and does that can have to make every quest completable at the moment? With Unlearn, you would have the ability to unlearn and then re-learn.... mmmm.

  • Yes that's true.  Wouldn't it suck if you only have high level skills though and have to unlearn a 8 or 9 day skill to be able to relearn it again for the quest?

  • Yes it would... but then you don't HAVE to do the quest. I don't mind pain in the ass quests. Impossible ones? Sure. Impossible ones, yes. (I am assuming they removed the "donated 10 ingots to a project" quest. That one would not be impossible... but damn near it.)

    I am guessing that the quest hit much earlier in the chain of quests... we just got it "late" because it was introduced after we'd already been playing.

    There are somethings in the game that you have to look at big picture and how it will play out to new players, not to testers. Being a tester is partly about being a bit less egocentric/self-focused.

  • The only reason I felt like it was for higher level players is cause you need 1500 at a shrine for the quest, and it did take me quite some time to get that high as you can only donate a certain amount per day for an emblem it will take a certain number of days to complete.

    But you are right, it will probably be triggered at a different time when the game goes live and hopefully at a time when it can be easily accomplished because you will have lots of skills left

  • Yup, I know, but I was donating anyway when realised I couldn't complete the quest.  I think I said a 'hmph' somewhere in Live LOL!

  • Btw, the quest scales with level. I didnt have much trouble with it around lvl 16. It is an annoying quest though. I got one god up to 98% only to realize there were no skills coming up under that god that could use that much favor. But far from impossible.

  • I have the same problem, so I'm waiting for a new skill to be introduced.  Potions, perhaps?

  • oooh yes +1000 for potions skills:)
    Posted 16 months ago by ♥joby♥ Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Well impossible for me at this point.  It is possible to be impossible, if that makes sense.  I think there should be a way to spend the points even if you don't have a skill, I don't mind wasting all the points just to finish it!  

    For example, how you can click a button to start the peat quest, there could be a button that says, "Spend 1511 points now" in the quest log or something

  • I see your point laurali! It would be a really long wait for you, if not for the eventual reset. But... heehee... is it wrong of me to be smugly satisfied that, as a noob, i could do something you can't? ^^;;;
    Posted 16 months ago by FlirtyvonSexenhaven Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Nope, as long as its not wrong for me as a more advanced level player to be smugly satisfied I could afford four 50k homes :)
