Special Unlockable Quests Please.

[Bigglesworth]

Most of the sidequests so far have been pretty straightforward to unlock them. For example:

Discipline of War Rank 10 or higher
Disciple of Land Rank 17 or higher

so and and so forth.

I'd like to see some side quests that have special requirements to unlock them with unique rewards. The requirements for these quests will be a driver and incentive for players to complete them. I'm kindof using FF11 as an insipiration in how certain atma were only obtained by completing certain tasks in game.

Here are some sample criteria:

Unlock all Aethryte Camps and gate crystals: Special Side Quest with a reward of some speed shoes that grant Quick for 30 minutes. (think how usefull that would be in "In to the Dark"

Defeat X-Amount of Notorious Monsters: Special side quest that will grant a special piece of gear. Perhaps an armor that looks like Shield of Savage that has different skins and leathers on it.

Complete X-Amount of Local/Gathering Levequests Special side quest that will grant a specially imbued crafting/gathering tool or piece of gear.

Purchase all crafting books Special DoH quest granting a new powerful crafting book.

These are just a few starting ideas. Basically I want quests with pre-requisites. I don't want to log in after each patch and go to the cities looking for the "!" symbols and then complete them in a day. I want quest requirements that will require us to do a little work to unlock them. Giving us unlockable quests will do the following:

1. Give us more goals to work for.
2. Extend the lifeline of newly released content.
3. Introduce more challenge to sidequests.
4. Makes sidequests more interesting.
5. Rejuvenate existing content like behests/leves/NM's by giving incentive for people to do these activities.

Kinda excited about this idea guys. Let me know what you think.

Not really related, but just thought you should know we have this one already. They are called Hermes' Shoes and you get em from linking an active FFXI account the SE account tied to your FFXIV account before creating a new character.

Yeah I'm aware of Hermes shoes, but don't have them. Although if I had a chance to earn something like that in game, that would be fun to try and acheive. And I think it is related. I remember trying to unlock some of these gate crystals, having to run for my life from rank 70-80 mobs. A pair of shoes with a "Quick" ability like Hermes shoes would server as a token of all that running and exploring.

I meant that my post wasn't really related to commenting on your idea specifically. The idea of quick shoes as a reward for running your ass off is definitely related! lol

Like this idea ! :3

thanks for the feedback. I feel more challenging side quests with better rewards would be great. Pre-requisites were a big part of some of the FF11 quests. Remember Sleepga II, how about Mage's Ballad?

I think this would be a lot of fun but I love the quest and more the merrier for me. I like the quest in 11 like how to get the teleport spells and the ruby quest that was fun.
