I was wondering why you cant do an EVENT quest if you havent finished a gen quest with an NPC. I always have trouble with doing an event quest concerning Deion because I havent finished a gen quest. Why does it matter? They arent even related? Just curious

    Apparently certain quests override the default response of an NPC when you try to talk to them, and they are assigned priority. Sometimes it's nice so you can get right down to business with an NPC, but other times, it can be a real hassle. When I returned back to this game, all my beginner quests were reset to undone and that made discussions with Duncan quite difficult because I had to go through a lot of mind-numbing minutia to proceed (including a forced rebirth at a current level of THREE).

    I've had issues with other NPCs because of this too. There is only one fix to this: complete the quest that is interfering with your progress.

    IIRC, the good thing about that forced rebirth is that for that one, and for that one only, you have a larger selection of facial components available than you normally have for free.

    The thing is, on that one, I had just returned from at least a 6-year absence. I had forgotten most of the game mechanics, was confronted with new things, and had all those newb quests in my face. I was struggling to get my head on straight and had just rebirthed not knowing what waited ahead. Facial expressions was not on my radar.

    Good luck with the shepherd boy. I recall a gen quest of his that was a real headache for me. Luckily Nexon had one of those generation nerf events just at the right time for me and I got past it.
