Runes of Magic US / AU

In the (old) lower level zones such as Logar, Silverspring, Aslan and up, there are elite quests (pink) that are mini quest chains. Not doing these doesn't really affect you too much, but they do give better exp than the normal quests for that level range, and heading into the 45+ zones, that chunk of exp will be pretty nice for secondaries.

Starting in THH, the 55+ chains start (Toni and Morrok quest lines), which later converge into a single quest chain at the end of Limo. You can't skip through quests in this chain, and in some zones not completing certain parts of the chain will actually lock you from a lot of side quests or dailies. In other words, progression stops if you don't continue with the questline.

I don't know if there's a list for Merdhin yet. I haven't seen one, but maybe someone else has.

In addition to what effervescent said, there are general level requirements for many regular (i.e., other than Epic quests), as well as requirements for quests that are part of a given non-Epic quest chain. RW seems to like quest chains, so there are a lot of those.

A useful addon is DailyNotes. While it's usually used to quickly select and turn in daily quests, it can also be used to see what level(s) need to be in order to accept quests in a given zone.

Using Xaviera as an example, the [b[daily quests[/b] level requirements range from 41-48. Note that you must be within no more than 2 levels below the actual quest level in order to be able to accept any quest. (You can be no more than 10 levels below the quest level to turn it in.)

So, the acceptance level for any quest follows that as shown in the DailyNotes interface.

And also remember that, unless there's an addon I don't know about (and there probably is one), you normally cannot see available quests on your main map unless you're within 2 levels below the actual quest level.

Clear as mud?

The answer really depends on what level you are. In different sections of the game, the quests are organized differently. What is a key quest for L10 toon is different than L55 and different than L75.

I would also recommend queststate addon. It is not perfect, it can tell you quest that are not there. Limitations of inquiring into the ROM database is that you see some junk. Still, it is good for finding the missing quests.

And for lowbies, check the quest line. If your quest is under (Epic) line, either pearl or the sword one, then it is important. If not, probably less so.

hmm don't you mean, "you must be within no MORE than 2 levels below the actual quest level in order to be able to accept any quest."?? xD

Oopsie! Good catch, and fixed it. Thanks!
