Boy! I thought I was shot by a machine gun (OMU/Chult quests were reset)

Login to the character with my headphone on. 13 chult/omu quests were out-of-date. Each entry creates about 3 bang sound in rapid rate and I was not looking at the monitor. Almost spill my coffee. I don't need coffee anymore after that excitement.

    I had the sound off when logging in, but there was a huge wall of red text indicating the quest resets. Suggestion: Change the UI notification to a single message, something like, "Some quests have been reset. See system notifications for details. We apologize for the inconvenience."

    I am not sure it was the system message making the sound. That sounded like the 'new quest' sound like after you accept a new quest. i.e. I suspect the "reset" created new quests and that made the sound.

    Hey @plasticbat! Thanks for the feedback. I passed it on to the team and they are curious as to what quests you had out of date since 13 seems a bit high. We want to make sure nothing else odd is going on other than the notifications being startling :)

    All of them are from either Chult or Omu. Mostly, patrol quests. Not just one toon, I have 6 toons doing that. Each have more than 10. Mostly, 13. I counted the red messages in the chat windows.

    Guessing that 13 refers to the mod number.

    I collect all 6 patrols on each character and then do them in turn throughout the week. Add 4 weeklies, the daily and 2 Omu quests would be 13. More with the found quests, but I don't stockpile those. But yeah I can see 13.

    There are 6 patrols mission in each area - so 12 in total. Some of us like to collect them all and do them in one bunch. I lost some already completed which I did not turned in (luckily just a couple)

    For some reason I have lost all finished patrols and mission from the open zones that I had already done in advance for next week :(

    Could we know what was changed on the missions for resetting them?

    If I would have got the rewards from the "to return" missions I wouldn't mind that much, but losing them completely makes me sad

    I had the same issue, and with patrol quests only from omu and chult.

    I didn't have any patrols from Omu on this toon, but I think I may remember the same for Omu patrols on other toons.

    All my Omu patrol quests were reset. 24 in total. I would understand it, if they would not want us to prefarm them, but this is just a waste of time. I did spent most of my play time collecting and finishing this quests and was somehow upset, when they all got reset.

    My Omu patrols were reset on the one character who had not done them. Everyone else had completed and turned theirs in.

    I got the same message when I logged in, it said that all the quests were out of date... Strangely enough, Ekene-Afa won't give me anymore patrol quests. It doesn't even show the wait period until I can get them again they're completely not even showing.

    It said it is out-of-date and "will be automatically restarted". That means if you had the quest, you will have that quest in your journal to complete.

    No I can't even grab anymore patrol quests, they aren't even showing up but I have the 6x weekly.

    You mean you don't even see the patrol quest in your journal. If that is the case, you should report that in "Bug Report" forum.
