Other quests that cannot be shared...

[denmom]

I tried to share my Legend and Lore and a language quest with a friend today.  Neither I nor my friend could share them.  Compared notes among my guildies and other friends and they also couldn't share those, but could share all their other quest except for the ones stated in the notes. Petitioned, talked to the GM (wasn't an outsource one, thank gods), and it was confirmed that these type of quests aren't shared.  I think someone forgot to mention that to Grimwell. *rolls eyes* Anyhow, just a heads up and sharing information.

<p>If you are talking about the language quests that start with a dropped item, and you need to collect more of that item, then of course they are not sharable. One of the devs posted that quests started from drops are NOT sharable.</p><p>L&L quests are also started from what I would consider drops, i.e. you get them from clicking some item in the world, not from and NPC. I figured they would not be sharable under the same restriction as the dropped quest starter</p>

I just thought to give a head's up since there was no mention of these quests in the update notes.  If one goes by the notes, it can be assumed that language and L&L's can be shared.  Several I know did just that, including myself.  I read the forums, but I don't read everywhere, so didn't know about the dev's comment. Not arguing, just simply stating why I posted.

Autenil gave a very detailed run down in this post here. They probably should have been included in the update notes. <a href="http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/posts/list.m?start=120&topic_id=356820�" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://forums.station.sony.com/eq2/...20�</a> <cite>Autenil wrote:</cite><blockquote>So it seems like some clarification about the Quest Sharing feature is in order. <ul><li>You have to be in a group to share Quests, and can only share with group members in your zone within a certain distance of you. </li><li>When you try to share a Quest with a group mate it checks things like whether they've already completed it, if they already have it, if their Quest Journal is full and if they're eligible to get it (i.e. have done all of the prerequisite Quests, etc).  The game will tell you the reason why it wasn't able to share a Quest with someone if that's the case. </li><li>Sharing a Quest with someone causes them to start at the <b>beginning</b> of the Quest.  They do not get the progress that you already have in the Quest.  The idea here is to save a trip back to who knows where in order to get the Quest when you could be spending your time adventuring.</li><li>Quests that are started by items will not be shareable.  This is in contrast to Quests that give an item when started, most of which will be shareable.  The item(s) will be bound to the Quest and deleting or completing it will cause the item(s) to be deleted.</li><li>Heritage, Hallmark, Signature and Betrayal Quests will not be shareable.  Additionally, Quests that would be trivialized by sharing (i.e. the Druid/Sorcerer travel Quests) are not shareable.  The first Quest in each Deity line is not shareable; later Quests are shareable.  Holiday Quests are not shareable. </li><li>Repeatable Quests (like Writs) are only shareable with someone who has never completed that Quest before.  If they have completed it previously, they will have to go to the original Quest giver in order to repeat the Quest.</li><li>If you happen to be ineligible to receive a shared Quest, the game will tell you why.  It could be something that you can remedy (i.e. that you need to complete a different Quest first or learn a particular language) or it could be something that can't necessarily or easily change, like your race, class or home city.  It can really be pretty much anything, but the game should tell you why. </li><li>Most Completed Quests can be shared with group mates.  This helps out if they are ineligible because they haven't yet completed a Quest that you have.  You can share the prerequisite Quest with them and help them with it.</li><li>Shared Quests do not disappear when your group dissolves.  You keep them until you delete them.</li></ul>The goal with this system is to enhance the group play experience by reducing the downtime before adventuring. </blockquote>Othesus - Dirge - Lucan DLere Vaspar - Fury - Lucan DLere

Thank you very much, Othesus.   And I agree, it should have been included with the notes.  Ah well.  I can now give the info to my friends. Thank you again.
