Quest Colours. Each quest has
a level. Similar to monster-level
colours, the colour of the quest’s
name gives you a quick comparison
between your level and the quest’s
level:
Gray Quest is 9 or more levels below you
Green Quest is 6-8 levels below you
Light Blue Quest is 3-5 levels below you
Blue
Quest is 1-2 levels below you
White Quest is the same level as you
Yellow Quest is 1-2 levels above you
Orange Quest is 3-4 levels above you
Red Quest is 5-7 levels above you
Purple Quest is 8 or more levels above you
Sharing Quests
You can share quests with other
player characters. To do this you
must be in a fellowship with the
character or characters you wish to
share the quest with. Once you are
in a fellowship, click the quest you
want to share in the left side of your
Quest Log, then click the Share
Quest
button at the bottom of the
panel. All members of the fellow-
ship should then get a pop-up box
asking if they wish to have the quest
bestowed.
Of course, this only works if the
character qualifi es to receive the
quest. If he has already completed it,
or has not met its prerequisites, you
cannot share it with him. You also
cannot share Epic Quests this way.
Refl ecting Pools. The one excep-
tion to this is a Refl ecting Pool. If
you want to invite a character to join
you in an instance that he has already
completed, he must visit a Refl ect-
ing Pool. Using the pool allows him
to replay an instance (but not a quest
that does not involve an instance).
Canceling Quests
To cancel a quest, open your Quest
Log. Select the quest you wish to
cancel and click the Cancel Quest
button at the bottom of the Quest
Log. Click Yes in the pop-up box
to confi rm that you want to delete
it, removing it from your Quest Log
and the Quest Tracker. (Clicking
No
leaves the quest as it was.) Do-
ing this will reset the entire quest
and you will have to go back to the
initial quest bestower to get it again.
If you need to exit an instance
before completing it, canceling the
quest is the only way you can be sure
to be able to gain the quest again
— avoid logging out before you
have cancelled the quest, if you can.
Finishing Quests
To fi nish a quest, you need com-
plete all the objectives you were
given, then you need to speak to
the indicated NPC to receive your
reward (or go on to the next step in
the story). Occasionally you will be
asked to select an item as a reward
for completing the quest. Choose
the item that best suits you and
click on Accept. The item will
then be added to your inventory.
Quests
Quest Log
You can bring up
your Quest Log by
pressing L. This
is where you keep
track of all your
quests. This panel
sorts your quests
into regions and
the Epic storyline.
You can sort the
Quest Log to only show certain
types of quest, such as just the Epic
quests or completed quests.
If you click on the title of the quest,
the right side of the screen shows its
current objective, details of the quest
and your reward for completion.
Getting Quests
Gold Rings. Quests
are gained by talking to
NPCs with golden ring
icons above their heads. Talk to an
NPC by double-clicking on him.
You can choose to accept or decline
the quest by clicking on the corre-
sponding box at the bottom of the
quest dialogue. When you accept a
quest, your Quest Log immediately
updates to include it.
Flaming Rings
indicate quests that
are part of the Epic
storyline which runs through the
game. These quests are important
and will often involve members of
the Fellowship, such as Gandalf and
Aragorn.
Silver Rings. Some
NPCs have silver ring
icons, rather than gold.
A silver ring indi-
cates that a quest does
not match your level. If the NPC
will not talk to you about a quest,
it means your level is not high
enough; try talking to him again
after gaining a couple more levels.
Transparent Grey
Rings.
Other NPCs
have transparent grey
rings above their heads.
This means that the quest’s level
is far below your own level. You
can accept and complete the quest
— perhaps to continue a story arc
that requires it — but the rewards
and XP gain (if any) will be small.
