Today we have the first of three new quests types coming in V15. I figured we've been stuck with the same, stale quests for ages now. Time to add a few more types into the mix. Two of the new types will be randomly generated, while the third will be a new kind of player generated quests.
First, let's talk about horde quests (name subject to change if I come up with something better).
Horde quests will be similar to NPC quests, but instead of needing to defeat a certain number of a kind of NPC, except instead you will need to do a certain amount of total damage to the 'horde'. The health of these hordes will be based on the health of the player when they accept the quest. The hordes will be noted as either 'Tiny' (10 times the player's health), 'Small' (15 times), 'Average' (20 times), 'Large' (25 times), or 'Huge' (30 times). These mini-hordes will be accessed via the "Hunt" button on the wilderness pages, mixed in with any other NPC or Horde quests you have active in that area at the time.
Other than that, they behave just like NPC quests. Once they are defeated, you can submit the quest for your reward: a Leveled Item.
One other related note: The bonus "Dry Moat" unique building in Fal Dara will be changed from adding bonus Ji for Find quest to adding "+50cp (per level) for Horde quests". That will mean any Horde quest FROM Fal Dara will earn bonus coin. Regardless of where the quest is submitted from. That's how those bonus are supposed to work, and WILL work from now on.
