dragon quest versus regular quest

Well, there's nothing stopping you doing quests at a lower level than you.

You can also slow your levelling down by throwing XP into your genie, if you want to.

But yes, dragon quest provides a big chunk of XP in exchange for cash (well, for items which you can sell for cash)

Bounty hunter provides a HUGE chunk of XP (about 20%) in exchange for doing bosses. It's almost certainly the better deal in terms of time spent, though there is a slight risk.

Or you can ignore both and do quests and explore the world.

You should always do regular quests. Apart from the cultis which you need to get fbs, the rest of the quests usually give u rewards such as armor and shards and especially at low lvls its a quick way to gain exp.

DQ is a personal choice. Some people are too lazy to farm for dq items and dont wanna buy them. Personally it gives me a reason to grind and at the end you can either sell your dragon orders or collect them to get a rare mount (although not so rare anymore lol). At low lvls it's a way to help you gain extra xp, but you might have to sell the dq items for money instead. So if money is a problem just leave it for now.

how many copper/silver/gold orders do u receive when u do one of those quests?
(is it worth doing em to get molds from those orders?)

You get one order, which at low levels is almost always copper. (Silver starts dropping around the 41/51 quest, gold around the 61/71 quest, hit up pwdatabase for the rates)

You can talk to the director for a list of what everything costs, but you're looking at at least 50 for anything vaguely useful. (The lottery I haven't tried. that's cheaper to enter)


My advice would be:
Unless your quest list is actually full, there's really no reason to not have all the dragon quests you can get in it.
I'd not bother chasing them down, but any time you're in the area (or flying across the area to get to some other quest) trade in the items / kill the mobs.

It fills out more of the map with useful things.

Of course, it might also be better to just sell the DQ items and BUY the horse, now.

Dragon Quest is a waste of coin...even if you don't actually spend any coin. I never bought a DQ drop; I never teleported from place to place specifically for DQ. I flew there or I went during my World Quest.

I did DQ up to lvl 70 something. I finally was convinced to stop and sold the **** I had left. I had over 1.5 million in coins just in the DQ drops that I hadn't used. Plus the orders that I've still got rotting in the bank. I did SOOOO many DQ's. If I had just sold all of that junk (even just to an NPC) I would have made millions throughout the levels.

So...DQ is not worth it. The piddly amount of EXP that you get compared to the coin that you could have gotten is just not worth it. I can grind the experience faster than doing the stupid DQ.

And...not that I was going for a horse, because I think barbs are WAY too big for them, but now they are a permanent addition to the Cash Shop...leaving little reason to do DQ. Ok, some molds...pfft.

Regular quests are easier, quicker and will benefit you more in the long run.

Dragon quest = waste of time..
Do normal quests(if you have them ^_^)
Normal quests = money ( you get more money selling DQ items )
And.... grind... more exp grinding than doing DQ.. i can grind 200k exp in 1 hr with exp scroll and make 200k easy .. Dont do Dq... waste of time ^_^
