[Suggestion]: FC Member Quests

[GalkaBikini]

When I think about "companies," I think of missions and quests. The Grand Companies are always giving us quests, so how about our free companies give them too?

We could be given a certain amount of FC quest allowances each day or week, where in a FC member with the proper authority can issue a task. As an example, a task could be to turn in 50 of a certain item from gathering or fishing. Or maybe to craft certain items, or to kill an amount of a certain monster (get people to farm Apkallus for eggs!). I'm sure other ideas can be come up with. The quest could probably be issued from an NPC that can be placed in your FC house, and turned in there as well (or maybe housing shouldn't be required?). Quest rewards would be pre-determined by SE and would probably be based on the type of quest - gathering equipment for gathering items, crafting gear for making items, etc. They should probably always reward gil.

I got the idea when I mentioned that we needed materials for high level food. A lower level player who had only been in the FC for a few days offered to collect the ingredients, and after doing so I gave him some HQ crafting gear (he wanted it for Culinarian).

As another example, let's say a FC member needs to kill Chimera. A high ranked FC leader could issue a FC quest to kill Chimera, and that way whomever helps with the fight will receive bonuses for helping out.

I don't think the rewards should be huge or anything, I just think that this would be a neat little extra thing to have and a cool way to promote people to acquire items and help with content that the FC needs.

I am an advocate of this idea, and I believe it should give money to FC bank

This is an excellent idea, and one I'd like to see implemented.

[Spoekes]

Does this even make sense?
You (the FC) provide a quest that gives you (the FC) money?

Like OP's story with the new member sounds just like the type of quest a community can come up with themselves.

If your FC provided quests, the payout to the questing person should COME FROM the FC Bank, and not GO TO it.

just my 2 cents

Well I see what you are saying and it makes sense. Maybe something could be set up to where there are different categories that FC leaders could choose from each week. The categories have specific challenges, bounties, duties, etc., to be completed. Since the leaders would be choosing something that is in-game provided, then possibly a reward go to FC bank, and of course the participants get their unique rewards as well. Maybe to avoid spamming of the "Really Good Ones" the can be built up over time, tier wise, maybe be grouped by FC rank...tier 6 would be after 3 weeks of successful completions and rank 6+. Maybe a system where FC's can choose to save their progress in lieu of weekly challenges and use 1 for a bigger challenge, that can be completed within the week, doing this three times to get to tier 9. Then after completing Tier9 they can prepare for a go at tier10, big time boss or something like that. Great rewards for all participants and for the FC as well.

The possibilities are endless.. Just a rough thought vomit, expound or flame, idc.

I'd prefer if someone can assign task for FC . like depend on FC rank (and maybe title in firute) more duty options will pop & for that duty FC may recive special points.
FC missions can be vary :
from simple :
- gather something & deliver to players that requested
to hard mercenary tasks that will give large amounts of pts for FC :
- Garuda (hard) for example
Tho for those things need to add not a gil value , but something else ( need to look into it very accurate ) like housing items , FC unique buffs (like maybe 5% echo , which really can help raid FC's)
Tho this just my vision how FC actually should be in this game (atm it only LS with a house (or w/o)

Maybe add some FC mission/quest with reward by spending Rank Point, for example buy from the rank pts redemption npc.

So now the reward actually will come from FC rank points indirectly^^

There was a game I played that had this. Except that you couldn't pick them, they were a weekly assigned thing, and you had to find them. It was cool. Can't remember what game, though.

I agree with Spoekes. This sounds like a pretty sweet system, but the reward needs to come from out of the FC's pockets. Otherwise a FC could abuse the system, like have a quest that rewards gil for 10 aldgoat skins turned into the company chest. The master could turn in ten skins, collect the rewards by putting them into the chest, then pull the skins out and set up the same quest, turn in the same ten skins...and so on to infinity.
