Time change[edit]

Does anyone know what time the quests change? It seems to happen around 11AM eastern. --The preceding unsigned comment was added by 38.96.74.21 (talk).

Try the main Zaishen Challenge Quest page. (Ralmon the Gen 12:01, 27 April 2009 (UTC))
If you receive a quest can you complete it on a day later than the one you got it on? Lyra ValoUser Lyra Valo Sig.jpg 21:11, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
Certainly. --Arduinna talk 21:35, 27 April 2009 (UTC)

How many Missions?[edit]

How many PvP combat areas are there? There isnt that many so they will repeat themselves every week and half wont they? Flaming hot chilli 09:51, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

likely, but maybe the tasks change slightly as well. i doubt that, though. —ZerphatalkThe Improver 10:01, 3 May 2009 (UTC)

Question:[edit]

I have the ab quest active from the last assigned day. If I complete that quest today, would I be able to pick up the next ab quest? UglyLooking 20:56, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

yeah. For the alliance battle quest do the 6 wins need to be in one day?
No, you can take as many days as you like to complete those 6 wins. Jarus 10:55, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

No repeats[edit]

I still have in my quest log the first Team Arenas Quest. I noticed on one character that there was a new Team Arenas Quest. I logged on to the character with the TA quest still active and there was no exclamation mark over the banner when i tried to get the quest. I only glanced quickly but it did not mention that i could do the TA quest. This means that it is not possible to get two quests for the same pvp area and complete them both at the same time to get two rewards. Instead it treats it like you already have the quest from the combat standard so cannot claim 2 rewards from one quest. At the time i only had 2 active quests - the TA one i had yet to do from before and the one just before the new TA one, so it was not due to having the max 3 quests active. It was if I had already done the quest even though I hadn't. I don't know if this new quest was any different though.

However basically you can't receive more than one quest for the same pvp area. --85.95.113.68 23:51, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Actually, it might be a new thing, but I have 2 Heroes' Ascent quests active on one of my characters right now. 76.114.66.99 21:02, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Delay Distribution[edit]

I have no idea how you made it for Nicky Sandford - but could we have this for Zombat Quests? I have a feeling it might show a few interesting things. --User Karasu sig.png Karasu (talk) 11:07, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

What's a ZOmbat? A zombified wombat?

it's an old quest from before the update that made them repeatable. They had a silly implementation where they tried to make them semirepeatable by havin several copies of the same quest. (Technically completely different quests that just happened to have the same name and objectives). Backsword 13:03, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
I got all of them AFTER the update. I wouldn't be posting here if it weren't.Pika Fan 13:42, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
I've actually heard of a lot of people having triple HA, but I have failed to pick up multiple quests before. Maybe only the HA quest is bugged, dunno. Misery 13:59, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
HA is the only one you can take more then once. I don't think you can complete them simultaneously though. I think two wins will only give reward on one quest at a time. --User Karasu sig.png Karasu (talk) 16:41, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
I got 1050 bronze and 27k balth at one go, so you CAN complete all 3 of them for separate rewards. Pika Fan 09:53, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Zaishen Combat Quest Rotation Cycle[edit]

A cycle of 32 days have been determined for rotation of Zaishen Combat quests. Elephant 14:13, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

NO WAI!! O RLY? --User Karasu sig.png Karasu (talk) 14:28, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for pointers. Map rotation still needs to be documented or added to the page. Elephant 11:38, 11 June 2009 (UTC)
Well I made a list of my predictions... But I'm not 100% sure its right. Up to this date, it has been correct. http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/5597/data.jpg Firefly 00:31, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Someone please remove Team Arena and Hero Battles from the rotation list. Darcy 16:15, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

They've been removed from the prediction list, but they can stay in the list on this page, that's a historical "this one was first, second, etc" list anyway. -- FreedomBoundUser Freedom Bound Sig.png 16:17, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
then maby there should be a note about that? or a comment at each one that they are no longer offered? Eluvatar 08:34, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Sign Post Level 24?[edit]

Is there a reason we must know that the signpost is level 24? Sometimes less is more, adding a lot of nonsensical information will not serve any useful purpose. Don't get me wrong, I just use this signpost as an example, I have no particular aggressions towards this specific signpost. --Lexxor 17:12, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

It's applicable information which fits into a widely-used and effective template. Is there a reason not to document it, as that is the sole purpose of this site? -- Oiseau | User Oiseau Melandru.jpg 17:14, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

A Quick question[edit]

Couldn't you make pvp characters nonstop during Random Arena days, win 3 battles, and farm the 3000 balthazzar faction reward nonstop? --ScorpDeception63 16:24, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

The Zaishen Combat quests are repeatable, just zone after you turn in the reward. No need to recreate characters. -- FreedomBoundUser Freedom Bound Sig.png 16:52, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
Wait...So you could farm 3,000 Balthazzar Faction nonstop that easily? How did I never think or hear about this! That's a ton of money in Z-keys! --ScorpDeception63 21:03, 14 April 2011 (UTC)

Is it just me or...[edit]

Does it seem like ZC favors HA and GvG? 76.106.245.213 11:04, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

i think he will have noticed by now, but just so nobody else thinks this is true: check the cycle subpage, a cycle is 28 days with every of the 7 pvp formats appearing four times each in this time 85.178.209.181 16:06, 7 January 2012 (UTC)

No longer need to change zones?[edit]

moved from Talk:Alliance Battles (Zaishen quest)

Do you no longer need to change zones to reacquire the Zaishen Combat quests? I just turned in a full AB reward, pivoted left, and picked up another version, without having to do the usual district change. Is that just because the AB quest I had was from a long time ago, or did they change it? -- FreedomBoundUser Freedom Bound Sig.png 01:55, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

I just tested it. I went and completed only the first/primary objective of an AB quest that I received before today. After I turned it in, the Zaishen Combat signpost didn't have a Quest over it, but I was able to receive a new AB quest from it without switching districts. Then I completed only the first/primary objective again for the new AB quest, but when I went to turn it in, I had to change districts to receive the quest again. So you don't have to change districts to receive the same Zaishen Combat quest again only if you received that quest before that day. --Silver Edge 03:41, 23 July 2011 (UTC)
I learned how this works on GvG day. If you started the quest last time it was offered, you do not have to change districts, however, if you got the quest today, you do. ~Nelson(n122333)User N122333 sig image.jpg 01:35, 2 August 2011 (UTC)
