Quest suggestions.

Hello there ImDeity Kingdoms,

NPC's are not to be included in your suggestion, we are trying to minimize the amount of NPC's and weave in your quests with already existing/planned NPC's.

As part of some large changes that we will be making to the server, a quest system is currently being developed. These quests will be provided by NPCs at certain locations throughout the world.

These optional quests will give players additional things to do and will provide appropriate rewards when they complete them (money / items / 'achievements' / etc).

The only type of quests we would like to stay away from are quests that require people to harvest large amounts of non-renewable resources ( ie: chop down 100 trees, mine 2 dozen diamonds, etc). Requesting other types of items that are easy to regenerate are fine however (ie: bring me 100 wheat, make a set of stone tools, kill X amount of mobs, etc).

Quests can have multiple tasks and requirements and we would also love to implement some basic RPG-style quests with a story.

So in this thread, please list as many quests as you can think of -- any and all ideas, no matter how incomplete the idea is or whether or not you think its technically doable, we will see if it can be made possible.

Rewards may be granted if we use your quests. These rewards will depend on a few factors.

A good format for your quest is:

Code:

[1]: Sort of NPC :We will try to tie your ideas into an already existing/planned npc, as to reduce the amount of NPC's to a reasonable amount.
[2]: Quest(s) description(s): Goals, items to be delivered, etc.
[3]: NPC text
[4]: Reward(s)
[5]: additional info, such as skin links for the npc, etc.

Failure to make a good suggestion, e.g: Pvp, pure spam, terrible format, not new, copying the current quests, will result in your reply getting deleted. If you can create a quest in one minute, do not bother, doesn't even save us time.

If your quest does not have it's text, reward(s) and quest description your suggestion will be removed.

Ideas that make no sense will be removed. As well as comments on the already made suggestions.

 

[1] NPC:
A worker for the city of some kind.
[2] Description:
In the spawn in the jungle area, there is a portion of the wall in the water (I will include Co-Ords soon when i find them), and the quest would be to gather up X amount of stone (2 stacks possibly?) to restore the portion of the wall underwater, as it is eroding away.
This quest could possibly be repeated, as the wall will continue to be underwater.
[3] NPC text:
I don't really know specificly, but something along the lines of..
"Excuse me sir, could you help me? See, this portion of the wall is under water, and eroding fast. But, you see, i don't have the stone to fix it. I would be so grateful if you could get me X stacks of stone for me. Who knows what could happen if it isn't mended soon?"
[4] Reward:
I don't know how much quest xp quests would usually get, but i imagine it would be rather low. Possibly 300-500dei to go along with it.
[5] Info:
The biggest problem with this quest would be that the watery area (again, i will provide co-ords soon) isn't very close to the path, and having the quest giver somewhere different wouldn't make much sense, because you couldn't actually see the wall in the water, but you could provide a path there and then give the NPC near the wall a few other quests in the jungle, so it could the a little quest hub for the jungle/mall area.

 

[1]: NPC : Knight of the King
[2]: Quest : Kill 20 zombies and 20 skeletons.
[3]: NPC text : "If you are truly worthy, kill 20 zombies and 20 skeletons to prevent the invasion. I will reward you handsomly."
[4]: Reward : 500 dei and a diamond sword
[5]: Skin link : http://www.minecraftskins.com/skin/482428/legendary-blue-knight/

 

[1]: NPC: A fisherman or Deck hand in the marina.
[2]: Quest: Gather fish to complete the quest.
[3]: NPC Text: "The kingdoms fish stores are starting to dwindle and our fishermen haven't returned from sea with our next supply. If you could help replenish the stores we would be very happy to pay you."
[4]: Reward: 1 cooked fish and 50 dei per 5 fish caught.
[5]: Additional Info: I am not sure of the value of the reward compared to the task so that is not set in stone. A good setting might be to have the player take a small boat out to a ship in the sea start fishing there.

(This could also work for hunting several types of animals. The reward would have to be worth the trade off otherwise people would just keep the meat they hunt.)

 

1. No NPC. 4 Chests for items brought in with signs above them listing item and reward.
2. Quest: Place for items that aren't much use on the server. To be a continuous quest as opposed to a one time quest.
3. Text: Signs in either the guard rooms or rooms at the entrances to the outer walls. "Help rid of us of the foul spawn that terrorizes our populace at night. A bounty is offered for each vermin you kill. Place the remains of your kill in the chest and you shall be rewarded. "
4. Reward: 5 dei for each zombie flesh(low as continuous quest) 25 dei for each piece of gunpowder 50 dei for each spider eye 100 dei for each ender pearl.

 

[1]: Sort of NPC : Guard
[2]: Quest(s) description(s): Get the guard a new iron sword
[3]: NPC text: Hello citizen, i need your help. Someone has stolen my iron sword while i was sleeping in the barracks. The lord will punish me if he sees me without a sword. What is a guard without sword? Help me please.
[4]: Reward(s) 30 dei 5 quest xp
[5]: additional info any skin (maybe steve), leather armour

 

[1]: NPC- injured Farmer
[2]: quest description - bring 5 buckets of milk and 20 wheat to the injured Farmer
[3]: NPC dialog - "Hello kind sir, a skeleton shot an arrow in my knee, can you please give me some of your harvest? just 5 gallons of milk and 20 bales of wheat, sir."
[4]: Reward(s) - 45 dei 6 QXP
[5]: skin - normal NPC or any that suits your liking

 

NPC : A technician or such
Description: Complete the Red-stone circuit to push this anvil to where it needs to be.
NPC dialog : "Can you collect the items and complete my circuit? I need to use this anvil." Items: Red-stone dust = 20, Red-stone torch = 6.
Rewards : Red-stone dust = 25, Dei = 50, Quest XP = 10
Extra : The wiring should be partly started and finished to give idea as to where to place. This also serves as a neat little guide to MineCraft begginers on how to use Red-stone items. The pushing is when the circuit is complete and it activates a piston that shoots the anvil up one to working at level.
Skin : A guy in a hard hat and tool belt pointing to the start of the wiring.

 

NPC: Old Woman
Description: Cake for the next generation
Dialog: "Uh.. hi young pal. Would you mind helping an old granny out of her misery? I really need a cake for my grandchilds, they are going to visit me soon!"

[4]: Reward: 10 watermelons, 4xp, and 3 diamonds (Same as the max amount you may get voting daily).
[5]: Additional Info: This is a good way of making people register in the portal and become more "active" about the server and the towns, the classes, etc.
The NPC could possibly give the newcomer a written book where it says what he/she needs to do, (register, go to XY forum, see Z things and give them to the old man)

Pre:
This would be a re-make of the "Big Game Hunting" quest lines of WoW (Pretty famous quest lines, might ring a bell).
For the sake of Roleplay, it would be preferable if only Bow kills counted. This is a quest-line about hunting, and doing it with a sword really kills most of the fun.

[1] NPC:
An Explorer/Hunter in the Thieves guild (skin below). Probably set the quest to one of the NPC's already in thieves guild.
If this does not fit with current "Thieves guild" agenda then probably an NPC in a bar/pub?

[2] Description:
You are sent on quests to kill semi-rare to rare mobs.
They will scale in order: Chicken (The NPC is making fun of you at the start), wolf, EnderMan and lastly an Ocelot. He is an honorable man and trusts you on your word (no need to bring back loot of the mobs). As soon as you kill them with a bow you complete the objective and can come continue the quest.

[3] NPC text:
First greeting:
"Good day [playername], you appear to be quite the adventurer! I was once a great hunter and am looking to pass on the thrill of the hunt to another such as yourself, would you be interested in learning the ways of the wild?"
Player pokes NPC a second time:
"Sublime! Now as I do not know how good of an archer you are, your first task is to find and eliminate a chicken. Take your time and come see me when it is done. Remember to use your bow."

Npc gives player a Bow and a set of leather armor. (With a green dye for camouflage if possible <3)

Post completion of Objective1:
"Hrm, that took you quite a while... Nevertheless you did achieve the objective. For this next one you will risk your life. Slay a great wolf, and we shall talk further."
Post completion of Objective2:
"I can see that you are quite the skilled hunter. This next hunt will be hard, venture far inland and find one of the terrors of the realm. Find an Enderman and eliminate him with your bow."
Post completion of Objective3:
"Amazing! That must have been tough. For this last one, venture into the jungles and track the rarest of all. Slay an Ocelot to show me that you have earned your place as one of the best hunters of all time."
Post completion of Objective4:
"You truly are the stuff of legend! Here take my bow, you have earned it. We will meet again my friend, next time the stakes will be higher, and the hunting grounds will be a bit more... fiery" (future nether questline?)

-> If the player returns without having completed objective: "Return when you have slain a (x) with your bow."

[4] Reward:
Since this is a long and hard questline, the reward should be adequate.
1000 Dei and the hunters bow: Power 4 Durability 2 Flame 1 (Perhaps make it a named weapon such as "Siren's Cry") -> Also make the bow be at half durability if possible, after all it's a used bow.
This is a really good bow (would be hard to get via enchants) but the entire idea of the quest is to make players use bows more often. As few people use bows, this sort of reward would promote archery on the server.


[5] Info:

Here is the skin, I think it is perfect:http://www.minecraftskins.com/skin/807356/old-archer/

 

[1]NPC: An old alchemist or even wizard of the wizard towers
[2]Quests Description: To collect some coal ,redstone ,iron ,and at one point diamonds, and to give it to the alchemist/wizard.

[4]Rewards: Some potions (hey what better way to get some!) and some quest exp. Possibly money?

 

Code:

[1]: Sort of NPC : Old wizard
[2]: Quest(s) description: Enchant a sword with Sharpness II (Or some other enchantment)
[3]: NPC text: "Hello, child. I would like to ask a favor of you. Bring me a &4sword with the power of &9Sharpness II. Thanks, friend. Hehe...." (Enchantment can be something else)
[4]: Reward(s): two emeralds
 

 

[1] NPC: An oldish man or woman about a hundred blocks out from spawn, in a fairly small hut.
[2] Description: You are sent to collect various plants and foods (like melons and carrots) so that the woman can start a farm.
[3] NPC Text: "Hey there, young fellow. Could you help an old (man/woman) out? We had a drought recently, and we lost our supply of plants. Could you be kind enough to help me restock on my crops?
[4] Reward: A small amount of dei (maybe like 25 per type of plant stack, and 1 per additional stack?) and
some "Herbalism" experience.

 

1. Can do with NPC in armor or signs.
2. Maze with 3 entrances:
1st (easy) Arch of leaves with cobblestone or smooth brick path leading straight to core. Can be to the dwarven ruins that are being built.
Text for easy entrance: Enter to take a diverting stroll to ruins of yore.
Reward for easy entrance: a rose (it's easy)

2nd entrance: More complicated leaf maze leading to core with spawners to release mobs
Text: While the ladies divert themselves in the garden; try your skill against the spawn that inhabit the darker part of the maze.
Reward: mob drops, 5 XP, diamond sword and helmet/200 dei

3rd entrance: Bridge that half way through has great number of blocks missing. Spans lava or if wish to make it less hazardous, water. Thought is that it will be difficult to jump across the blocks and
for most players take several tries so it will be fun and a challenge to do multiple times even if one has already completed the quest.
Text: Attempt the bridge perilous at your own risk.
Reward: chain mail or gold chest plate and leggings/10XP/500 dei

 

[1]: NPC : An old librarian in the Wizard's University.

A few of our apprentices thought it would be a good idea to practice combat magic in the library, greatly damaging quite a few books and now they need replacing. Perhaps you can help me, my dear, if you would be so kind as to collect 9 books, 6 feathers, and 6 ink sacs I can start repairing and replacing them."
Finishing the Quest
"Oh thank-you so much deary, with these I can start to transcribe some new copies. Hmm...Perhaps making those apprentices transcribe the books themselves will give them a new appreciation for the library. Oh, before you go take this tome for your troubles."
