Suggestions on New Quest?

If you insist on having quests on Era, I'd suggest using them in place of a tutorial to teach new players how to play the game in a "fun" way. The quests could award players with a few essential items (their first gun, a melee weapon, some starting cash, etc). Otherwise, quests are pretty useless because they have no replay value.

It might be cool to create replayable "quests" as an alternative for earning money or consumable items. For example, a quest to rob a bank that earns players a little bit of cash. The amount of cash would have to be similar to what someone would earn mining or digging shells, so the quest would just be a more exciting alternative to mundane tasks (with a bit of risk involved if you fail). I could still see this getting tiresome, though, because most of today's players would rather sit at unstick me and merchant items.

he thinks he knows it all but didnt even finish the eventbot in months of work lolol
