yep. Absolutely. One timers are a complete imbalance of the game. If it's just token quests that is one thing, and a good builder uses proper code to scale down rewards for each repetition. But as for items, they should be available however many times we need them.

There are a few one-time quests for gear leftstill , but they will be fixed eventually.

Graham is working on it, so don't give up hope.

So anyone wanna compile a list of one-time quests?

Bane was working on one but he hasn't been seen for a while.


So far, I've got a fix for enchanted lands, which seems to be the most important one.

I still need to work on these ones?
- Robin Hood Official Dagger
- brow ring quest

Anything else?

This is the complete list, as far as I know:
- ghostly shimmer
- henna hand tattoo/ivy covered horns
- platinum pinky ring
- magical silver spoon
- Cape and Raindrop ring
- Martin's holy armour
- the Rainbow Serpent's skin
- silver face plate
- golf course quests

Welp, better not tell how I have 20 spares of rainbow serpent skin then :3


Do ALL of those need to be fixed?  Just want it in writing that I'm given the go, even if the builder themselves made it quite clear it was supposed to be a one-time quest.


Otherwise, I have the fix for enchanted lands, just need to edit it in, and I already put in the fix for the brow ring.

Well, the list was given to me by players, (I think Jaros and Hayato contributed most), so I'm not even sure if it is accurate or complete, it would be exceedingly tedious to check all quests.

Anyone can collect extra spares of a one-time item, if they take the trouble of creating a new char and levelling it up untill it is strong enough to finish the quest. Since their old char has the flag, they'll be able to use it.

This is why we weren't particularly eager to remove the one-time quests - after all, they probably were made one-time for a reason by the Builder. But since we decided to give in to the whining, and since it is possible to get multiple items in other ways, so...

Yes, you have a go, to all of them, Hayato.

Oh, if you're refering to my comment about the rainbow serpent skin, I got all those spares off one character.  I'll probably fix that as well on my way to making it properly repeatable though.

Just put the enchanted lands fix live, and fixed ghostly shimmer as well.  I also took the liberty to change all the "set %actor.exp(X)%" lines to nop lines instead.  Just much cleaner this way. :P


In addition, just confirming that henna/horns quest is indeed repeatable.  Zedd just needs to have respawned for him to give you the reward again.  There are only two quests where he self-purges though, so if the player isn't aware of this, they simply have to wait for a copyover.
