FIELD NOTE 01

What quests can tell you

Quests can point toward a tool, system, area or objective that the game expects you to understand. If progress feels directionless, check the current objective before repeating work without a target.

This is a progression framework, not a claim that every quest unlocks the same type of content.

FIELD NOTE 02

Record a quest accurately

Capture its exact current name, prerequisite, objective text, reward if shown and what happens when it completes. Mark the build and date.

A historical demo name should stay labeled as demo evidence until the same quest is re-observed in full release.

  • Exact name
  • Prerequisite
  • Objective
  • Reward
  • Progression effect
  • Current verification

FIELD NOTE 03

When a quest needs its own guide

A standalone route is justified when players need steps, an unlock explanation, a stuck-state fix or a choice analysis that a table cannot answer.

A one-paragraph page that repeats the objective adds no value. Until the 8/10 promotion gate is met, quest child routes remain 404 and out of the sitemap.
