What happened to all the newbie quests???

[Calismic]

When I previously played areas like Beggar's Court, Longshadow Alley, and Temple Street had tons of quests.  Now none of them exist.  What happened?  I may be in the minority but I loved those little quests!

Sweaps still needs a Broom for exsample). They have more or less replaced them with the Racial Quests that you get from your Racial Mentor, wich eventually leads you to the "Adventure Yards" in the cities, wich is where they moved most of the Kill x of y quests too.

What happened (probably 6 months to a year ago now) was that the quests were revised and put into a sequential timeline (the racial quest series, and then the subsequent quest lines in the newbie adventure zones) instead of having little random unconnected quests here and there scattered all over with no pattern.  Call it a quest relocation and revision, I guess.  The one-off quests that had you running here and there fairly randomly were mostly removed, and instead there's a more directed quest line.  You'll have noticed there are "racial mentors" standing at the docks in the newbie villages - these now start you off on your questing when you arrive in your home village, and direct you on to the newbie adventure zones after that.  On the whole the overall result was fewer quests in the actual living areas, and more quests in the tier 1 adventure zones.  Some of the quests that were in the newbie villages have been relocated directly into the newbie adventure zones (for example, the 'joining the gang' quest that used to be in Beggar's Court is now transplanted straight into Sunken City) whereas for others, the old quest was removed but the quest reward has been given to a new quest (for example, the Starcrest Commune quest where you had to catch the kitty is no more, but the wooden pet cage quest reward is now given out in the tier 1 adventure zone quests for both Qeynos and Freeport now).  There's still plenty of quests out there to do, hope you enjoy discovering the new ones!  <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
