Quests

Overview of the Quest Tab

Update 1.0 brought in a new NPC Quest System, this is not to be confused with the NPC’s that you can rescue but the Quests/Missions which are obtained from the Merchants/Traders and can be tracked in the new Quest tab found in the Inventory. These have replaced the old signal missions which is now a building called the Signal Tower and more information can be found here.

There is also the Tutorial Quest showing here also but it is something to follow and work through and can be “unticked” in the Quest Tab to remove it from the HUD/ UI Screen (only one quest can be tracked at a time). The relationship value is not related to tasks, but only to transaction prices and learning skills.

Once a quest is completed the player needs to return to that Trader or a Trader of the same name (IE: Any Sarah on the same map will complete the quest for you even if she didn’t give it out) to turn it in and receive the reward.

Initially, two quests will be given out and then once one is completed a player can than get another in sequence.

A player can hold unlimited quests from multiple Merchants/Traders.

Any tasks previously done before taking any of the Quests does not count (IE; only killing animals with the quest active will count no matter how many were killed before.

When a Quest calls for something to be built it means placed in the world and the components added so its complete and using Creative Mode doesn’t count. Submitting an item can be one thats looted or crafted.

This page will be an ongoing WIP as bugs are found and fixed with things subject to change.

To access the new Quest tab, First open the Inventory. >

Click on the “Book” icon in the top left of the screen. >

Click on the “Quest” tab which will the tutorial and any quests taken. >

The traders are grouped by the names of Hank, Li Na, Maria, Mike and Sarah and are across all three maps regardless of what they sell, trade or teach.
