    I'm new to the Wynncraft community, please don't eat me.

    Hey, so I've been wondering why Wynncraft's quest progression system is so strange.

    I have a few theories of my own on why it is, but I decided to make a thread about the topic to see if any of you guys know the answer.

    Now, when I say "quest progression," I mean how quests are distributed to players based on the amount of levels required to start them.

    In this Spoiler I have listed every level in which players unlock 2+ quests upon a level-up and levels that simply do not unlock any quests at all.
    Lv 1: King's Recruit + Enzan's Brother
    Lv 3: NO QUEST
    Lv 5: Spider Cave + Tunnel Trouble + The Sewers of Ragni
    Lv 6: NO QUEST
    Lv 7: NO QUEST
    Lv 9: NO QUEST
    Lv 11: NO QUEST
    Lv 13: NO QUEST
    Lv 14: Arachnid's Ascent + Creeper Infiltration + Suspended Flowers
    Lv 16: NO QUEST
    Lv 17: NO QUEST
    Lv 19: NO QUEST
    Lv 21: Studying the Corrupt + Macabre Masquerade "Hallowynn 2014"
    Lv 22: NO QUEST
    Lv 23: Cluck Cluck + Pit of the Dead
    Lv 24: The Dark Descent + Dwelling Walls
    Lv 26: The Corrupted Village + Lost Tower
    Lv 27: NO QUEST
    Lv 28: Sister City + The Mercenary
    Lv 29: NO QUEST
    Lv 33: Meaningful Holiday + Kingdom of Sand
    Lv 35: Tribal Aggression + WynnExcavation Site A
    Lv 37: NO QUEST
    Lv 40: Tower of Ascension + Ice Nations
    Lv 42: Star Thief + Clearing the Camps
    Lv 43: Underice + Fate of the Fallen
    Lv 47: NO QUEST
    Lv 49: Rise of the Quartron + The House of Twain + An Iron Heart Part I
    Lv 52: Crop Failure + Corrupted Betrayal + Jungle Fever
    Lv 53: Master Piece + Death Whistle
    Lv 54: The Worm Holes + The Shadow of the Beast
    Lv 55: Zhight Island + WynnExcavation Site C
    Lv 56: NO QUEST
    Lv 59: NO QUEST
    Lv 61: Reclaiming the House + Redbeard's Booty
    Lv 62: Lost in the Jungle + Taproot
    Lv 64: A Fighting Species + The Headless Hunt
    Lv 67: Memory Paranoia + From the Mountains
    Lv 69: Grand Youth + Lazarus Pit
    Lv 70: WynnExcavation Site D + Haven Antiquity + Shattered Minds
    Lv 72: Eye of the Storm + Forbidden Prison
    Lv 73: Hollow Sirene + Troubled Tribesmen
    Lv 74: Murder Mystery + Reincarnation + The Realm of Light + Acquiring Credentials
    Lv 75: Flight in Distress + The Ultimate Weapon
    Lv 76: Aldorei's Secret Part I + The Bigger Picture
    Lv 77: Purple and Blue + The Hunger of Gerts Part 1
    Lv 78: The Hunger of Gerts Part 2 + Aldorei's Secret Part II
    Lv 80: General's Orders + The Qira Hive + ??? + From the Bottom
    Lv 83: A Marauder's Dues + The Envoy Part I
    Lv 85: The Lost + The Canary Calls
    Lv 86: Desperate Metal + Cowfusion
    Lv 87: Beyond the Grave + Mixed Feelings
    Lv 89: The Envoy Part II + Enter the Dojo
    Lv 91: NO QUEST
    Lv 92: NO QUEST
    Lv 93: NO QUEST
    Lv 94: NO QUEST
    Lv 99: NO QUEST
    Lvl 100: NO QUEST
    Lv 101: NO QUEST

    As you can see, there are a lot of levels where no quest is unlocked. 23 in total.
    However, there are exactly double the amount of quests that are unlocked along with one or more others upon a level-up.

    So yeah, I'm just curious as to why they couldn't/didn't assign levels that don't award any quests with quests from levels that give more than one.



    Take a shot for every time I said "quest."

    Holy shit, please make this dark theme friendly you ungodly light themer. Ok, so a lot of these quests don't even give enough xp to level up half way to the next level. Thus, adding two quests guarantees you can make it to the next level and that you don't have to do quests, grind, level up, do quests, grind, level up. This means less moving between grind spots.

    The reason for this distribution is that most quests are side quests made by individuals and there isn’t a “main” storyline. So while they do try to fill in level gaps, they aren’t trying to be uniform and could easily forget to check if there is already a quest at that particular level.

    Though why there is an over abundance of quests in the level 70 to 80 range while there are almost none in the endgame is anyone’s best guess. Perhaps it was that they weren’t done building Molten Heights yet and weren’t coordinated (since Gavel took almost a year and was made by volunteers). So in order to keep people working they had them working on the next highest level range since they couldn’t work on the endgame quests. And then by the time the update was due they didn’t have time to add extra quests.

    That’s just my theory, so don’t quote me on any of this since I was never apart of the CT during Gavel’s development. It’s just what I think is the most plausible.
