New Tuesday Update is Live
Yulgar's Adventurer's Board Update + Chaos Drop
Yulgar has been watching you all struggle with getting daily quests. He saw how dusty his quest board was getting, so he put a fresh coat of paint on it and added some daily quests to it from all throughout Lore. Most quests that require farming for resources were added to this. It’s located in the second room to the right in /Yulgar!
What’s the Daily Quest Board?
This is a location in /Yulgar that had a bunch of daily quests from the Chaos Saga on it... until today, when we added even more from around Lore. The quests that were added are ones that players in the community asked for in a recent feedback poll. Adding them decreases the time it takes for players to collect all of the quests, and makes sure new players know they exist.
Why update the Daily Quest Board?
Today's midweek designer has been watching a lot of AQW YouTubers and saw this one video from a content creator named Wahzzers which really hit home -- they had to go to tons of different maps to get all the daily quests they wanted. It was pretty eye opening, the amount of time and effort it took. When he did a runthrough and looked at how long it took to go to each map, it took several minutes JUST to type out all of the map names and go to all of the maps. That has a big impact on how much you and other players enjoy the game. Adding all of the quests all in one spot should help mitigate this issue.
What's next?
The current plan is to have at least one more update in the "not too distant" future. After today's update, we'll get more feedback from the community, then we can add more quests, house items or pets that players might want that have the daily quest board attached, etc
Bonus: New Chaos Weapon Drop
For those that don’t want to deal with the typical crowds in Yulgar’s Inn, then we have a daily drop in a library! Head over to the /BackRoom of the Chaos Librarium to obtain the easily-concealable Chaos Shankers from the Chaos Sp-eyes and Chaos Rats. Travel-sized for the hero who quest is to cause more chaos wherever they go.
