Assisting Qeynos (and Freeport) quests

[Lera]

<p>Could you please remove the requirement on these (Assisting Qeynos/Freeport, Assisting Qeynos/Freeport Again, Assisting Qeynos/Freeport Yet Again, and Final Qeynos/Freeport Assistance) that the questlines cannot have been completed? I know they're meant to direct players to the questline at the appropriate levels, but I don't like missing out on quests. And, oddly, I could get the first two Freeport quests after finishing the questline, but not the last two.</p>

<p>Hmm, where is Final Freeport Assistance? Never found that one for some reason.</p><p>Didn't realize there was a requirement on these--I agree, drop the req.</p>

<p>Final Freeport Assistance is in Paineel, from Mopin Clocklok. For Qeynos, they're:</p><p>Butcherblock Mountains - The Highlands - Sertera Vantra - Assisting QeynosSteamfont Mountains - Gnomeland Security - Zappin Kwibble - Assisting Qeynos AgainTenebrous Tangle - Tenebrous Landing - Valya Forestborn - Assisting Qeynos Yet AgainSundered Frontier - Paineel - Rialyen Farineth - Final Qeynos Assistance</p>

There's really no need for that, ever, since although it makes slightly more sense lorewise, it just locks out content - and who's to say that the quest-giver out somewhere has even heard of what you've done for the city?</p><p>I forget which quest it is that you can't have done, but if someone who's done the quest tries sharing it, it'll tell you.</p>

<p>Mmm... so, short honest answer - there's no easy way to do that.  It's not a matter of "removing" anything... it would be instead "adding and amending a whole lot of things that could break a lot more things".  In fact, I can't think of a clean way to facilitate that in a way that wouldn't look broken.  Murrar's dialog tree alone makes my eyes bleed just looking at it.  Ugh.</p><p>I'll tell you what, though - I'm not saying no just yet.  I'm a bit busy at the moment, but I'll make a note of it and see if I can take a look at it when I have a spare minute that I can (admittedly, my "spare time" queue is getting to have quite a bit on it!).</p><p>Thanks for the heads up.  If I don't get back to you in a few weeks, ping me again in a PM.  <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" /></p><p>EDIT: Oh, I just thought of something that might maybe possibly perhaps might work.  Again though, I can't look at it right now, but I'll try to soon.  <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>Sounds complicated. <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" /></p><p>Obviously you know a lot more about all the dialogue trees, but I was able to do "Assisting Freeport" and "Assisting Freeport Again" even after finishing the quests. I finished both the fighter line (A Knight in the Graveyard) and the Freeport line (Your Eternal Reward) about a month before doing the assisting quests. I got the update by talking to Everett Splizen, and got the dialogue: "Stand fast, soldier. Or whatever it is they say. I'm sure you've done everything expected of a loyal soldier of the Freeport Militia. And now they've no more use for you. How sad."</p><p>Maybe however it works there could be used for the other quests? If you've finished his quests, give the quest update with that dialogue; if you haven't, give the update and he gives the dialogue for your next quest. The dialogue for the quest giver doesn't need to change - they can still tell you "go help Freeport" (or Qeynos) - they say that to everyone. <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>I had a level 62 character goto the Assisting Freeport quest giver and they told me I had already done everything I could to help out, yet I hadn't done any quests in Freeport since I was 45. So I never got the quest because the game said I already did the level 60 sets of quests. Same with the 80 and I still haven't gone back to do FP quests since I was 45.</p>
