Quest Prizes

QUEST APPROVAL

Quests add a great deal to daily mud life, and we encourage all of our immortals to become involved in designing and running quests.  To that end, we have established the following working draft for classification of quest prizes, with accompanying approval guidelines:

Quest Approval Guidelines:

• All cash quests are required to have the amount of "tests" posted.
• All cash quests are required to have the denomination for each "test" posted.
• "Tests" are defined as trivia questions or instances where a quest participant must accomplish a minor task (such as finding a mob or room)
• All cash quests are required to give away no more than 250k total for any given quest.
• If you want to run a quest giving away gold or equipment from your mortals, you do not need to seek approval and do not have to adhere to quest prize approval guidelines, but you must run it as a mortal.
• In-Game Quest parts and items may not be given away as prizes
• Holiday/Special Event items (relics) may not be given away as prizes
• DOOM items may not be given away as prizes
• Pagoda items (zone 98) are classified as God Level quest prizes
• QSTR+ may sponsor two Happy Hours per week.
• GOD Approval quests are limited to 1 per 7 days
• CIMP Approval quests are limited to 1 per 7 days
• Holiday quests and Gauntlets are not included in the 7 day approval periods.
• CIMP approved quests that include God approvable quest items do not block the 7 day limit on God approved quests.
• Major God & CIMP approved quests should generally give a 1 week notice  before the quest, though in some situations this may not be necessary.

Any of the above can be changed by a CIMP on the fly for any given quest.

Tier Modifiers

(perma-effect + 1 tier)
(quest-only + 1 tier)

Examples:

red wyvern bracelet: +1 dam puts it in AVTR tier, its ML fits that tier, so it's an AVTR tier prize.

blue plate: 1dam -1con puts it at AVTR, ML 12 which moves it up to DEMI prize tier.

tattoos: 10mana and ml 13 would put it at DEMI BUT  the perma affect moves it up a prize tier level to GOD

jade frog: +5 move regen would put it at AVTR.  Quest-only would ordinarily bump it up to DEMI, but it's 
flagged AVTR (because it  was specifically created as an AVTR-approvable prize), so AVTRs can award it.
