"Special" quest rewards? - Guild Wars Forums

Tetris L · Jun 20, 2005, 03:30 PM // 15:30

"Normal" quest rewards to me are XP, gold, items/weapons and skills.

Then I know about 3 quest with "special" rewards:
- There is 1 quest in pre-searing that gives you 1 skill point.
- There are 2 quests that give you 15 attribute points each.

Are there any other such "easteregg" quests that I should look out for?

Well there is the gwen quest if that counts as "Special" as she follows you around healing you.

There is the tapestry quest in pre-searing with gwen.

**SPOILER**
If you give her 5 Red Iris Flowers, 1 flute, 1 girl's cape she will give you a tapestry (spelling error) which, I have no idea where to use it. Something to pick up while ur in pre-searing.

If we're trying to be complete, there's the Pre-Academy Bear Hunter's who tell you to kill a Bear within three minutes. If you do and return in time, they give you Hunter's Ale. (Sure, it's just an item, but it's a weird sort of quest, since it's never officially a quest in your log.)

Maybe this falls outside the Tetris L's original thoughts, but there it is.

I was thinking more in terms of rewards that are actually USEFUL.

Gwen is useful as she heals you.

She's an annoying little brat.

lol that is hilarious, but you shouldn't depend on gwen for healing

dargon · Jun 21, 2005, 05:38 PM // 17:38

I only had to give her the flowers to get the tapestry

Does the "Present for Althea" in pre-searing count? I never got the NPCs to even mention this until I found all the pieces first, then I had to sit through the dialog to get the quest and finish it.

In post-searing I haven't found any easter egg type quests, but I did find some quests that I missed previously while I was just running around. It seems when I finished a quest in one city, it opened a quest outside the same city or in another. I spent about half an hour one day warping back and forth and found a couple quests I didn't know about before....

lol, no if you go stand next to them, they start talking, you can get that quest anytime, as long as they finish talking

I ususally run up next to em then go get the broken flute and kill the scale guy, then when I get back they've finished talking and I can get that quest
