Description
Quests are, in essence, puzzles that have been worked into the game. For example, a number centre around finding items and returning them to NPCs - Non-Player Characters, another word for the "monsters" that populate the game. Others involve figuring out how to get somewhere, or how to do a particular thing. Sometimes completing a quest even gives you a neat reward!
Now comes the important part of this help file: There is a webpage with hints and full solutions located at: http://discworld.atuin.net/lpc/secure/quests.c
Note that some players get a lot of satisfaction by completing the quests by themselves. If you discuss how to solve a quest on a public channel or by shouting it, you're probably ruining the experience for many others. If you're desperate you can ask another player in a "tell" for some kind of additional hint or insight.
I repeat: Quests are not for discussion on any public channel.
