Quest The 1.17 Quests

So as we all know the new update just came out! I have already done some of the quests and I'm going to give my opinion on them. I'm gonna give mayor spoilers so if you don't want those click away now!

Tunnle trouble: I did tunnle trouble first since I clicked on the npc on accident. I guess it was kind of cool, the part where you have to defend the miner was a bit boring and slow, more enemies would be nice. This could be because I'm level 100 and can one-shot everything but it just felt a bit slow. Saving the cows was cool, that type of stealth element should be used a lot more in my opinion. The raft was also pretty cool.

Overall 7/10 decent quest but not amazing.

Poisoning the pest: Pretty good for a really low level quest, I am really disappointed about one thing though. The farmer's wife is gone! 0/10!!! But now seriously, I did the quest with a level 100 class so it was really easy. I think the corrupted mob would make a challenge for low level players.

Overall I give it a 7/10 just like last quest, not outstanding but still pretty good!

Sewers of Ragni: Pretty good quest, the flood was pretty cool and so was the parcour. I found a small bug in this one though, at the part where the bars show up I used ice snake which triggered the tripwire so I was stuck for a while.

Overall I give it a 7.5/10 I think it's a good quest but still not a super outstanding one, I don't think you were going for that either.

Anarchids' Ascent: If you say the objective of this quest, which is getting a bucket of lava, this would sound like a really boring fetch quest. It's still a bit fetchy but it still has some nice parts, I like the flames from the spiders and I really like the parkour, although it can be a bit glitchy. I just feel like if the quest used a different concept from getting lava it could've been better.

I give it a 7/10, it's good, but it could've been better.

Studying The Corrupt: Sorry to say it but I dislike the Harry Potter reference. Other than that, it's a bit meh... I don't really get how they managed to break the stone with our information! I just don't really get it. I don't really know what to say now, I just do not get this quest, why would they want to break the stone? How do they even know Garoth is in there? How do they even know who Garoth is? The people in Elkurn don't even know it!

I give it a 6/10, this is a decent quest but it just feels rushed at the end and it has some really weird plot holes. It is entirely possible that I'm missing something here so could someone please explain this quest?

A Dark Descent: It was pretty cool but it would be nice if we got some more context on Charon. I know they want to make him look mysterious in this quest but some sort of follow up quest would be nice. Other than that the cutscenes were pretty cool. The only thing that really annoyed me for some reason is that the floor of the house you walk into is entirely flat...

Overall I give it a 7/10, it's a pretty good quest but not super good.

The Corrupted Village: Pretty cool quest about the spikes! The part where you needed to get the materials for the bomb was a little fetchy but it was pretty good overall.

I give it a 7.5/10, it was a pretty good quest. Though it would've been cool if they talked about the people in the village more.

A Sandy Scandal: Good, I liked the cutscenes and the bossfight was nice. I don't really have much to say about this one.

I'll give it an 8/10, it's a good quest but I still haven't been blown away by any of the quests.

Kingdom of sand: Decent, the mansion bit was cool but the quest wasn't outstanding. I don't have much more to say.

I give it a 7/10, it wasn't really special but still good.

Fate of the fallen: Very nice, I really like it, the portal bit was a little boring but otherwise it's a really good quest.

8.3/10 I really liked it.

Corrupted betrayal: Nice, really nice. I really liked this quest, though I couldn't find the sheep at first, later in the quest the story is told really nicely.

8.5/10 Great quest.


Okay that's all the quests I've done so far, I'll probably edit this once I've done more of them.

 

you mean garoth right?

 

Oops

 

I guess I'll share my opinion about studying the corrupt since it's currently your least favorite new quest.

I think it was a good quest on its own, but it has quite a few plot holes. You already mentioned the plot holes about the stone, but I thought of two more major ones:
1. In the cutscene, Garoth comes out of the portal as a corrupted human. How did he turn out to be a lizard? In the lost sanctuary dungeon, he looks nothing like the corrupted human we see in the cutscene.
2. If Garoth is already corrupted, how did he get corrupted again in the corrupted lost sanctuary dungeon? It's possible that more exposure to the portal can result in worse corruption, but as far as I'm aware, it's never actually explained.
