| As a fun way to learn more about Azeroth and advance the story line, quests form the foundation of the World of Warcraft adventure experience. From simple tasks such as gathering supplies for a local blacksmith to complicated endeavors such as infiltrating the stronghold of a twisted cult, quests are a constant source of risks and rewards for characters of every race.
Thanks to their wide range of complexity and the sheer numbers, quests will continually provide players with engaging and worthwhile challenges, regardless of how often those players can play each day. And while many quests can be finished by individual players relatively quickly, others can require multiple players to adventure together for a week or more.
Performing the actual work involved for a quest has its own rewards, but an additional experience-point bonus will usually be awarded once the character reports to the appropriate NPC (non-player character) to conclude the quest. Characters can also receive money and/or magic items in exchange for completing quests, not to mention trade-skill recipes, spells, buffs, and much more. Also, World of Warcraft features a flexible reward system: players are often able to choose from a selection of quest rewards that best suit their character or their tastes. |
