After i started my first DQ Chain and completed it today too get my 15k xp and 3k sp for the sacrifice of alot of money and time. i said too myself, it it really worth it?

Well you are really using alot of time and money on those DQ for some reward which is good but are they worth the efford? (talking about the mount and molds)

I decided too look at it in another way, why not just do it in between all the other quest you have, then you are pretty sure not too run out of quest, and some day you will have those dragon orders you need for atleast 1 or 2 item if u manage too reach a higher level. also a bit more different than just killing 40 of some kind of monster.

So how are you doing it .Are you ignoring the DQ chain?

    I did it about 15 times.

    Since about lvl 40 I have note done it since.

    Although I have kept it in the back of my mind in case I need emergency exp and there is noting else going on. It can also eventually make you money for those who want to buy the orders rather then do the quests themselves.

    I am assuming it varies by servers.

    In LC I have seen the Copper Dragon Orders go from 10k - 30k depending on who is selling them. This however was a while ago and I have not seen to many around.

    Go check your auction house...maybe you can get an idea there.

    I don't do DQ, since those drops are my only income.

    exactly When I got to about lvl 60, selling the DQ to vendor is almost my only source of income.

    I found DQ a waste of time and money. b/c with the amount of time searching for DQ I could just mill monsters from the One man Army quests. Then I would have a nice stock of Mirage stones. But also get a decent source of income.

    I do it because constant grinding bores me and the price of the orders is slowly climbing.
    Do not walk behind me, I will not lead
    Do not walk in front of me, I will not follow
    Do not walk beside me, This twisted road I must walk alone

    *looks at the 300k per order price*
    Something tells me if I want to get that mount I have to get the orders myself.

    I run dragon quests when I run out of other quests (and sometimes I mix dragon questing in with other quests).

    Dragon quests work great for sight seeing, learning about new possibilities, and also give me some exps and I hope eventually I will have enough orders so can acquire a nice horse. (I currently have almost 60 copper and 10 silver orders and I have not yet completed my first dq 71 run.)

    I'm the same except I have 45 Silver. Want to see more of the world? Do the DQs. They send you into places you would not normally go as you search for the NPCs and the items. You become familiar with this cube very fast doing them.
