Quests is simply a term for directed game play. During your playtime in UO you will find some NPCs that require your assistance, sometimes they will reward you with magical items or gold.
The newest quest engine, which was introduced in Ultima Online: Mondain's Legacy, allows for hundreds of new quest options, including the opportunity to engage in multiple quests at the same time. Some quests are very simple in nature - seek out a certain monster and kill it, for example. Others require you to explore new dungeons or areas of mystery. Still others involve crafting, and reward you with new runic kits or crafting recipes. You can even change your race through questing. The quest opportunities are endless and there is something for everyone.
Quest Types
- Kill: Specifies a type, quantity, and in some instances, location of creatures you must kill.
- Obtain: Requires you to gather specific items and return them to the Quest Giver. Some items come from monsters that must be slain, some items must be crafted, and other items must be found elsewhere. Some of these quests require you to gather and return a certain quantity of a specific item.
- NOTE: In order to make the NPC notice that you have brought him or her the requested objects, you must mark the objects as quest objects. This is done by single clicking your own character, which will open a context menu. Selecting the option, "Toggle quest item" will bring up a targeting cursor. Select the objects that you want to use to complete the obtain quest. When you then double click the npc, he or she will notice that you have obtained the requested items.
- Escort: Help an NPC travel to a given location.
- Delivery: Take a quest item from one NPC and deliver it to another NPC.
- Classic: Several of the Classic quests do not use the new quest engine. The older quest engine is accessed through your character's Context Menu. Classic quests can only be done one at a time.
