Arrow Congrats Alysena for completing the first "Epic Newbie Quest"

Background: I had an additional Box of Abu-Kar as one sometimes does, and I decided to bless a newbie with it. But (insert political/philosophical statement about meritocracy, work ethic, and the joy of owning your labor and the fruit of your labor) so I decided to start a series of Newbie Epic Quests.

Quest: "Collect and turn in 100 CB Belts to me for an excellent [reward] which will make your burdens [lighter.]"

Reward: The Box of Abu-Kar

Result: Alysena and her hubby camped those CB belts for 2 days, while leveling. Together they multiquested. With joy she ran to the Kelethin bank to meet the quest-giver and received the Box of Abu-Kar.

Stay tuned for more Newbie Epic Quests.

OP conning low levels into inadvertently PLing his alt - would have been a nice gesture for 10 belts, not fucking 100

Yes, but as you might read from the /tell in the photos, they are broke, like most newbies. It's one way to help newbies get items they cannot get at their current level, but they actually earn them, so it's a nice feeling.

(1) Get epic item you cannot attain on your own or even with a few buddies
(2) Earn it for feeling of accomplishment and genuine ownership

I think she is level 7. I 100% encourage newbies to camp newbie quest items in newbie zones. It's how Brad wanted it.

Belts drop like crazy. Not everyone will do an epic quest. In fact, for one box... "there can only be one."

Feel free to run your own Epic Newbie Quest if you like.

I'd gladly pay 400pp for 100 CB belts in one pop.

PM me if you have a bunch to sell.

Lol exactly. I could get about 100 belts in about a couple hours or so on my necro when he was around lvl 16, if the zone was mostly empty. I would actually play at weird times to do it, but most anyone splitting belts in a party is gonna have a lonnnnng ways to go to get 100 ( especially with the merge )
