#Quest Helper in Official Client
42 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
For the sake of the of the official client competing against Runelite, yea should be a feature but I think installing a quest helper plugin for the new quest you worked so hard for would be a hard pill to swallow.
quest helper doesn’t get new quests immediately
it also doesn’t get ordered in oqg sorting for a while
some delay would probably be unavoidable anyway
if jagex were to implement an official quest helper I think it'd be significantly toned down to effectively be mostly like a hint system
could tell you what tools you need for the quest for example but not listing every single item involved
and certainly not step by step highlighting every single thing you need to click
they'd probably do what quest helper already does - not in the plugin for a month.
Yea, I can't help but think they wouldn't want it as a feature but I think it would make its way into the official client eventually
arguably, if they don't want it as a feature, they'd force the clients to ban the plugin
I think they're pretty okay with it
might aswell let us just skip quests at that point
The RuneLite quest helper does make quests dumb easy and remove the fun from some quests
But some quests are pretty badly designed and not fun
So many quests are:
- go to this random remote location, talk to someone
- they ask you to bring them a glass of milk or some shit
- go get it, return to random remote location
- proceed with quest
In those the quest helper is saving you an entire trip and is super worth it
I think Jagex could implement a hint based quest helper that removes some of the tedium, telling you what items to bring, and giving progressive hints when you ask for them
Like "hint please", click button, it tells you what's in quest log / last npc said, hint 2 highlights all the interactive objects, hint 3 puts a big arrow on the right one to press
I kinda want that for clue scrolls too. The anagram & riddle ones are fun to try but I never want to do a coordinate step
If it didn't show answer immediately but I had to press another button to show it I'd keep it off until I need it
Oh yes I guess I just agree with this
just release the quest and then have the quest completed menu pop up
just as you sign in

agreed
i dont mind if its player made, but if theres a quest helper built into official client whats the point of quests
when you can just skip them pretty much with quest helper
might aswell let us straight up skip them at that point
if its playermade it makes sense
cause players are the ones making it
but if the creator makes a quest plugin then why even design the quest
just skip to the completion screen same thing
Damn I made this like yesterday or some shi and I already see like 20 comments damn
Only highlight stuff for the shitty quests
nah
telling you exactly what to do and where to click is absurd for any quest
like yea it doesnt make sense how rl can have it but vanilla cant but you gotta think about
while third party is third party
vanilla shouldnt since they are legit the creators of the game
spending all this time making it and giving u the option to just skip it
