That’s It! I know it is quite long but it covers important topics like villager greed and even intertwines the two provinces. I hope you enjoyed! By the way after the quest is over you can throw away the fake emeralds and paper.

 

the numbers of text are gray... also you forgot the names of the npcs in front of their dialogue
Also what does the fake emeralds do?

 

Actually... It could be a lot more detailed.
1. Uh... Maybe put the NPC's name in the text, like in-game? And maybe correctly color the reward and numbers?
2. Coloring for the ring is off.

3. Um... I thought this was a level 84 quest. So why are the papers guarded by... level 20 enemies?
4. We don't know whether the prison is planned for anything; It was released during Gavel so it most likely has it's own use later.
5. Proper stats for the guards you made. You only gave the boss stats! Make all of them.
6. Again. 20 emeralds. Even though they're fake a level 84 quest would have a couple LE involved.

 

They represent the villagers greed and cheapness, but other than that, nothing else.

1. Ill look at it
2. Ill fix it
3. The area is a lower level, so i may change that still. I did want feedback
4. kk
5. ill fix that aswell
6. They represent the villagers greed and cheapness, but other than that, nothing else.

________________________________

fixed, and thanks for the feedback

 

maybe remove where you need to go in quest book so quest will be more puzzle-like?

________________________________

Also why Xert can't give us LEs and paper ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡° )?

 

1. they arent supposed to be, ill figure a way out to make it seem less so.

I was making a quest that is JUST like this, it had a weird alien type creature and a choice at the end and everything.
This is better anyway.
But the Ternaves Prison is probably already gonna be used in a future quest.

 

There is many things off.
Firstly, if it is a high level quest, you should locate it in Gavel or the Jungle. Because, your quest in the middle stages, is traveling back and forth in low level areas. This doesn't quite help the player, because you should more have a challenge at such a high level. Maybe you should relocate the areas in Gavel for instant, and it reduces the much travel, which is quite annoying. Just suggesting.
Secondly, this is more of a draft than an actual suggestion. You should experience or pinpoint which areas you think the quest should be. You don't even know the coords, and you don't have any actual stats for the enemies.
You should really re-check some things here and there. You need to consider other perspectives of other players. Don't ask me, I haven't even gotten to lvl 75.
Do this: Check out everything. Consider other constructive criticisms. Think of perspectives of other players, and revise. That's all I can say.

 

yeah i was looking for feedback.

I thought making a quest between the 2 Providences was cool, but there can be places in gavel.

Thanks for all of the feedback!

 

Dang... wonder what route I should take...Hmm... keeping the jewel to myself gives me a extra 8 le profit... thats good.... but.. i miss out on a ring and 40k xp... hmmm...
going for the 10 le one :)
money is better then those rewards >:)

 

im changing that now >:)

 

The dialogue is fine and the characters all have some sort of personality, but this quest REALLY holds your hand. Gavel quests often don't update too often and simply let you complete it how you want to. This feels like a repeat of the Llevigar scavenger hunt quest, but longer, and holds your hand through it. The cryptic papers instruct you of a random place and you magically know. It is exactly what Gavel was trying not to do. The quest also feels a bit bland. The NPCs are just 'Here. Next one please.', and utterly lack stories. Most Gavel NPCs all have unique and vivid stories. From a short quest like Sherk's, we learn of a warlocks, a maiden, cursed to live alone in a tower as a specter, and a loving ogre. You don't really develope your characters at all.

 

Thanks for the feedback. I meant for the messages to be cryptic, as those are m notes, so ill change the words and make a guide :). There is also a little story about greed in there, but i get your point.
