Curse

Since I started playing GW (only about 1 month ago) I've been looking in vain for a complete list of skill locations, including quests. Lists of skill trainers and elite skill bosses are available on many GW websites. But none has a complete list of skills that can be obtained through quests. Since I couldn't find one, I started compiling one myself. Here is the preliminary result:

List of Quests with Skill Reward

I believe the list of quests is complete, however, I'm unsure about the skill rewards in some cases. If you notice any errors in the table or you know about any quest with a skill reward that's not yet listed, or if you got any other kind of comment or feedback, please post in this thread or email me: TetrisL(at)gmx.ch

I don't mean to rip off somebody else's work. Let me make very clear that I did NOT gather the information in this tabel MYSELF by playing the game (for the most part). Instead I searched pieces of information on various GW webistes and forums. My part of the work was only to put the puzzle together all in one place.

Since I don't claim exclusive credits for the table, consequently it is free to use for everbody.

Credits go out too all the sources of information that I've used for compiling the table, first of all Cymmina, who had more than half the work already done:

http://www.cimmanon.org/gw (Skill / Quest Listing)
http://www.guildwarsguru.com (Forums, Skill Listing)
http://www.gwonline.net (Forums, Quest Database, Skill Listing, Pre-Searing Quest List)
http://www.guild-hall.net (Forums, Skill Listing)
http://www.duranceoffate.com (Skill Listing)

Furthermore I'd like to thank all the people who posted valuable information on the matter on various threads on various forums. Among many others, let me mention especially: Cymmina, Eclair, FloridaFringe, ...

Very Nice.

Thanks for doing this! I was wondering about which skills I'd missed from quests.

casskeogh · Jun 10, 2005, 08:17 AM // 08:17

Thanks for putting this all together

momo2oo2 · Jun 10, 2005, 09:56 AM // 09:56

Inmense thanks!

This way I can know which skills dont have to buy from skill trainers.

BTW, I only look for skill names, not the location since I find a lot of fun discovering quest skills

Very nice list of skills available from quests up to LA. The list isn't really complete as it doesn't have the skills for those quests found beyond LA, but still pretty good nonetheless.

I think you have given this list as much attention as Bush gives to his wife

in other words: look again*.

* not to Bush's wife. do not take the words out of context please, that's a horrible thought.

awesome work

JoDiamonds · Jun 10, 2005, 06:41 PM // 18:41

Huh? I looked today, and the bottom has tons of towns with skills beyond Lion's Arch.

Bravo, L. Thanks, this is a very useful resource.

Temjin · Jun 11, 2005, 01:28 PM // 13:28

Oh yeah sorry, my fault. I thought the list was in order in terms of how far these quests are into the game. When I saw LA was last, I automatically assumed they only had data up to it. hehe Thanks again.

Ollj · Jun 14, 2005, 06:55 AM // 06:55

finally found this.
great one!

Hebug · Jun 14, 2005, 04:39 PM // 16:39

Holy crap thanks.

Deathlord · Jun 14, 2005, 06:10 PM // 18:10

VERY nice work. I've been searching through a majority of sites but never could work long enough to get much done to be of any help to me or anybody else in that case. Hat's off to you, good job.

Cerby · Jun 14, 2005, 07:37 PM // 19:37

Very Nice, but to clarify for some of the newer users, skills obtained from quests are also all available from trainers, just nice to save the money and skill points. Elites are the only skills that MUST be obtained through questing or farming.

Not downplaying the guide though, I've already used it to get a few skills that I missed and would have had to therwise buy

Hebug · Jun 14, 2005, 08:11 PM // 20:11

In addition, skills through quests often get you them faster than you would if you only bought from trainers. Typically you can obtain quests for them one area earlier than the trainer (area being postsearing ascalon, northern shiverpeaks, lion's arch, jungle, desert). Plus you save skill points and gold, making all those capture signets cheaper.

And the race is on to get a list of the skill rewards for the new quests. Yes, that's right folks, the new quests are skill quests (primary + secondary). Hope we can get this (great!) database up-to-date ASAP.

Makkert · Jun 16, 2005, 10:40 AM // 10:40

I've updated my list for the Temple and Kryta Provence quests. Didn't have time to track down Silverwood's.

Silmor · Jun 16, 2005, 12:19 PM // 12:19

Alari Doubleblade (In Silverwood, near resurrection shrine coming from Mamnoon Lagoon):

Monk: Contemplation of Purity
Ranger: Barbed Trap
Warrior: Crushing Blow
Elementalist: Conjure Frost

Echoing addition to Damaris (just outside Lion's Arch talking to the Heroic Foursome):

Elementalist: Lightning Orb
Necromancer: Enfeeble

Cymmina, your listing has "Wastrel's Worry" for Warrior there now, might want to fix.

Have any children that need bearing?
