Progressive Armor/Weapon Quests

Dalayan Beginner
I was wondering why there are not more progressive quests in the game from the start for armor and weapons. There are very few newbie armor and weapon quests and they are not for all classes. I would suggest newbie armor and weapon quests, for each class. After that, some armor and weapon quests, for each class, at maybe 15 or 20. The quests could keep the players interested in exploring some zones they might not care to go to before. It also gives some more excitement than just exp grinding to get high enough to do some more equipment quests.

I guess what I'm trying to get at is there is little in between newb and high lvl.
 
After the newb quests there are starfall quests, and then thurgadin quests. I know thats not exactly "weapons and armor", but I don't think the devs really have time to make the tons of quests it would take to make weapons and armor for every race/class as you level.
 
I think the devs have done a great job in creating newbie armor/weapon quests (I can only speak for necromancers, monks and shaman). My 22 necromancer is still using the weapons I got from newb quests and have just recently upgraded the newb quest armor with hopper hide. Monk stuff is good too. My monk isn't even level 10 and I was able to get the 10% haste tunic from the newb armor quests in Grobb. Solid stuff.

If every class doesn't have armor/weapon newbie quests like these, than I agree, they most definitely should.

However, I don't think there's a need to create class specific armor/weapon quests to replace the newbie quests. By the time the newbie armor/weapons lose their usefulness one should be able to replace them by buying something new or from obtaining it via dungeon crawling in a group.
 
I wanted to emphasize that there is not newbie quests for all classes. My beastlord has decent armor, but my druid and bard are wearing leather that has dropped. It is always fun to quest for something better than the ordinary instead of just grinding xp. I'm not saying to revamp or create whole new armor sets.
 
I don't know about druids, but I know there are a couple bard-specific armor quests, and a progressive bard-only aug quest.
 
Progressive should peice quest in SNP from the cleric guild was awesome. Kinda stopped in the middle though.
 
there are a few random sorta-quests you can do that yield gear for certain classes hiding about dalaya such as the quest in shadowdale killing certain creatures for a halfling and the treasure box in miel b that requires a key that is rarely dropped from froglok champions iirc.
i agree there should be more progressive weapon and armor quests but i beleive the "More quests for the people" act may be working on them...who knows for sure
