One major thing this website is missing is a quest database. Can anyone point me in the direction of one?

To start: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/content...lon-id1264.php

Then: http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...ead.php?t=4333

After this we will get the rest of the quests

its GOOD to have help starting, and that guild is well done.
BUT i hate "quest database's" i think it deminishs the fun of "what happens next?" and deminish's the challange somewhat.

Guild wars seems to me more about the quests and story itself (PvE wise) then the end product (IE reward, xp etc).

why spoil it for yourself by reading a walkthough before every mission etc?!? seems daft to me.

it woud be nice to have a list of starter NPCs for quests maybe but no quest details..

Then again tho, this is my own opinion and i guess i choose to look at walk thoughs or not, "the point">>>>>>>tho i would advise people NOT to look at walk thoughs as your spoiling half the fun you could be having in my exp.<<<<<<<<<

sorry what I am really looking for is an allakhazam style database with detailed quest info and comments. I guess it doesn't exist yet.

gwg should have a PVE forum with every quest in it. People can leave their comments and tips for the quest under each quest thread. That would be hella cool...

PS. Your sig is too big.

Quests are a relatively new addition to the game and have seen a lot of changes since the NDA was tightened. They also have requirements - doing them in a certain order, for example - and change depending on your character - different quests give different rewards. So it's a very complicated task to track them all down and it's one that could only be done during the few days of the last few BWEs. We've concentrated on Pre-Searing because it's both easy to get to and something that should benefit those just starting out.

But, rest assured that a Quests section is well in the planning and we have plenty of data about several quests, including ones Pre-Searing it's just that we don't have enough to make it worthwhile to put something up just yet. Once we have more, you can count on us having a section devoted to them. Just as we'll eventually have sections for the various PvP areas and mission walkthoughs and an item database. We could throw something up at the wall for right now, sure, but we want to make sure that when we do something it's done right the first time. That makes it much easier to update as we go along.

If you want to help us along, please visit Kyo Yuy's thread or just make sure to keep a note of what quests and things you happen across as you play the game. The more people we have mining for such data the faster it can all get done and the less each one of us will have to do individually.

As for whether or not we should have such things. Well, if you don't like them you don't have to read them. We're not forcing you to do so or anything like that. But we want to be as comprehensive a source for GW information as possible and for many people that includes detailed walkthroughs, maps, guides and more to PvE content. This entire site is based around the idea that the ore knowledge each of us has the better of everyone will be. So we're hardly going to stop ourselves from providing as much information as we can in as many ways as we can do it. The reason we haven't before is just a matter of time and not desire. However, any quest or walkthrough database will have layers to its information so you can get as general or as specific as you want with things. We'll put it all out there for you to find and it's up to you to decide just how much knowledge you want to gleen from things.

yeah tho only 11077 sq'd pixcels bigger then yours or 123 pixcels wider.

what makes it to big? even on a res of 640x480 does not effect the table spacing of the forums width wise.
