I've only managed to have my quests show up in one zone (butcherblock Mountains) on the map.  I want to quest in Thundering Steppes but none of the blue areas show up on the map and I'm having a very difficult time locating specific objectives.  How do I make the areas show up?  Can I only have one zone loaded at once for the blue area?  And yes I've disabled the quests in Butcherblock to make room for the quests in Thundering Steppes.

Also - I am a gold member right now.  If I drop down to a silver member will I lose my characters that would only be supported by me buying them from the shop?  I currently play an Iksar SK.  I realize I will lose bag space, but as I'm leveling my character I don't need the gold perks.

Thanks!  Any advice is always welcome SMILEY

you can only recieve quests within your level range. hoever somewhere in options you can set it to show quest feathers for outdated quests.

They haven't implimented the blue 'quest stuff here' zones in all of the zones. Anything not on the golden path as been mostly ignored for that SMILEY

Do the quests you aren't getting marked on the map show up in the quest helper on the right of the screen?

Otherwise you can put a check mark next to them in the quest journal, after unmarking some of the others if necessary, if that doesn't help they probably don't have a get map mark.

If you go down to Silver you lose access to the characters with the non-free races or classes unless you unlock those races and classes, they are still there but can't be played until you unlock/resubscribe. If you do go Silver, make sure that you play the characters that you bith can and want to continue playing last, that should set the order of the characters so that the locked characters don't take up one of the slots that are still available. (Though I think some people have still reported problems after doing this) (Though if you were planning on unlocking them "soon" and don't want to buy more slots you could be better off playing them last so that they end up in slots that are still available (assuming you have other characters you would be willing to have locked.))

Awesome, thanks guys SMILEY

I have tried un checking the quests in Butcherblock Mountains and checking the ones in thundering steppes but nothing changes.  Still all of the quests I'm picking up in BBM have the blue area show up on map directing me where I need to go for the quest though so maybe it wasn't implemented in TS?

As for the going to Silver, I only really have my one Iksar SK that I play.  Kind of a bummer that I would need to pay to unlock his race/class if I drop down haha.  Thought maybe there was a way to kind of get around that if I played gold for a while.

The blue quest area helper hasn't been implemented in Thundering Steppes.
