Weekend Quests
Cursed Quests is the weekend quest! Do those quests for increased prizes and special rewards!

Here's what I've noticed so far from doing quests:
- If a quest gives you items, you're going to get lower sP rewards, which is especially crappy when it comes to Alexander, whose book requests can be very expensive but whose payouts in sP might be little to non-existent, yet the item rewards are decent to put in shops.
- If a quest just gives you sP, like say with Cinithia or Cursed for me today so far, you either get a paltry amount or a decent amount. For those, if I want good sP rewards, I'll just do Saggy's.
Also, it seems like whoever Shinwa asks you to do a quest for, you'll get to get items from them but not the others. The only major exception I see to that is Quentin, who still gives out items due to them not being in shops.
Can we just PLEASE have things back to normal?! Some of us don't restock stuff and use this for getting items to frag, to sell, for galleries, or to use on our pets.

Also, I have to say that it's pretty messed up that this change wasn't actually announced and instead was buried somewhere in the forums.

I was wondering why I only got a few items these past few days. I literally do not understand this at all. The entire point to doing quests is getting items to either frag/sell later, makes some sp, and get quest points. Right now with this is only really giving me QP's for every 5. I've done every quest today and made less than 3mill. This change makes it so that the only one worth doing is the Wizard.
Pretty much the only thing that I do consistently on here is the quests, so this change is upsetting to say the least. Hopefully it doesn't last.

Just did the second half of my weekend quest. No items,a fair amount of SP though not what we usually get for a weekend quest. Please bring back the items!

Ironically, I only got two items here, but when I was doing the quest for the lady by the grave digger claw machine thing, I got like 3 items per quest, so it makes me wonder if the wrong npc got a boost in prizes.

Increased prizes and special rewards? Getting basically no items here. Whats the point of weekend quests then?

Um..... I'm getting payouts no much better than a weekday version and next to no items (seem to be something specific to Nori/Mori). I hope this is just a bug and not a permanent change.
Is not getting items the standard now? I don't remember seeing any announcements but people are talking about it like it's a for sure thing.
I'm very confused.

I haven't done Quests in a while, but they've always been my biggest source of income on here. Kind of wondering if we're eventually leaning toward a system of the payouts not being worth the Quest play.
I received a Mori/Nori sticker and a pair of wings, 1 quest point and some SP today. I've had worse days though so not getting hysterical just yet Lol :)

The low payouts and no items on almost all the quests now is so disappointing. Getting items was my favorite part about quests, I'd get rares or foods for gourmand/books for those achievements, plushies and beanbags for my collections, junk to frag. Quests are already so painfully boring :( Quests was my one reason for staying on subeta. This past year has been rough.

Did a Pete's quest last night with no problem but now I'm also getting the error page as well. Hope they get this all fixed soon. :(

I got anywhere from 50K-75K per quest (with one instance of 100K) and 2 items total from Nori. The sp payout and lack of items makes this weekend quest pretty useless.

I was wondering why I only got her quest items.. Even if they were junk items, I use a lot of those items for fragging crystals. D:

I'm not liking these changes at all, when the items were taken out of quests I expected to make more sP to make up for it. I used to make 6 million everyday, without items I expect to make at least 7 million and even that is low, because some of those items sold for quite a bit, especially the new items.
I made 5.5 mil today, I didn't get to do petes quests, I did three and it took my sP and items and I got no reward, that still wouldn't have raised it enough to even get to the 6mil I used to make.

is anyone else having trouble with pete's quests? I keep getting this:
Fatal error: Call to a member function track() on null in /www/subeta.net/include/mvc/models/quests/pete.php on line 73
while it does take the requested items, it then tells me I don't have the items, but they're removed from my inventory (as is the sP I bought them with) =.=

The only quest that still gives out items consistently is battle quest, so that's all I do now. Hope that changes.

Well, we have 2 possibilities now:
1. Do quests and wait for it being "fixed" -> it gets "fixed" without quest reset -> miss "additional" items
2. Don't to quests and wait for it being "fixed" -> it gets "fixed" and there is a quest reset -> miss "double"sP payout.

So here's the thing, maybe fix whatever new coding has been implemented to randomly limit rewards so that it doesn't affect whoever is the weekend quest? I'm getting 0 items from Cursed and the sP rewards I'm getting are pretty much standard for what I get when this isn't the weekend quest.
I understand that there's problems with the economy on Subeta, I get that you're trying to find ways to tweak the system so that the economy can get a little more stable - but clearly we're all being separated into groups again, since some folks are getting items from one set of Quest Givers, others aren't but are getting them from the ones the first group is not receiving items from, and you've included the weekend quest in this mix of random rewards. That isn't really helpful or beneficial. Why not just do away with the weekend quest if this is the case? I feel some of us are being unfairly blocked from getting the rewards that others are being granted =/

Please don't take this as a complaint but the changes to the quests have kind of rendered today's weekend quest rather... non-weekend.
Payout was slightly lower than yesterday although I'm willing to chalk that up to you guys still figuring out how to adjust payouts.
And I'm not upset by the lack of normal item prizes but perhaps the rate/ probability of special items could be raised a little? No special item in 10 quests seems rather low rate to me...

Really? I got like four items and at least 300k more than I get normally from her.
As for Alexander, he's giving out Rare items, persay, but his sP amounts have gone down the toilet than what he was giving out before this change.

She's giving her special weekend quest items, but that's about it.
Not very impressed, Subeta...

I am disappointed about the recent prizes, but I think it's mostly because without doing the quests I'm a bit bored. I need me a sitewide event!

@seephira
She used to. However, the staff is making it where questers don't give out items because Subeta's "economy" is low. In a sense, if this happens during a WQ, I won't be doing quests until items go back to normal.
I got items from Carl, but as soon as I start Cinthia's, no items and poor sP rewards, given that some items are inflated in price. The trade off for her, Alexander, and Quentin isn't worth it and makes me lose more money than make it, and given that I don't have a Gold Account, I have no way to price all the items in my shop, so I rely on getting good sP rewards along with items that'll sell good in my shop once I DO get a GA.

Got a few SPs and no items from 15 quests. Hardly worth the effort especially considering it's supposed to be special WE quests.

i mean i got 4 prizes out of the 15 quests, which is a significant increase over the 0 prizes i got the past two days!
i don't understand the drastic change in quests and i don't see who it could possibly benefit...i quested for the prizes as much as the sp (fragging, income from putting shit in my shop, and the chance of getting new items). really hoping it's not gonna stay this way.

Really miss not getting items. Especially seeing there doesn't seem to be much of an increase in prizes at all. -_-

Sort of pointless to have a weekend quest where the rewards aren't any better than doing it normally... I haven't noticed an increase in the average sP at all.

Well let's hope the rewards are increased this time, especially with the recent change in quests. Will give it a try. :)
