Description of the fields

ID

The quest ID. This column is the Primary Key for the Table. Each quest ID must be unique!

QuestType

Value	Result
0	Quest is enabled, but it is auto-completed when accepted; this skips quest objectives and quest details.
1	Quest is disabled (not yet implemented in the core).
2	Quest is enabled (does not auto-complete).
3	Quest is a World Quest.

MinLevel

Minimum level at which a player can get the quest.

QuestSortID

This field defines under what category the quest falls in the quest log.

If value > 0 then value is Zone IDs taken from AreaTable.dbc.

if value < 0 then (-value) is quest sort id: (in general profession or class quests. Also see RequiredSkillPoints ) Value is ID from QuestSort.dbc

QuestInfoID

These values are ID taken from QuestInfo.dbc

SuggestedGroupNum

Recommended number of players to do the quest together.

RewardFactionId1

Faction Id (from Faction.dbc) for which the quest give reputation points. Number of gain or lost reputation points for Faction at quest completion. This is special reputation rewarding. Normal reputation reward to quest rewarding creature faction calculated and added automatically.

RewardFactionId2

RewardFactionValueId1

This field is used for reputation lookup in QuestFactionReward.dbc if quest_template#RewardFactionValueId is 0. Value X in this field indicates RepX column of QuestFactionReward.dbc. If RewardRepValueId is positive, reputation from the first row of QuestFactionReward.dbc will be used, for negative values the second row is used.

RewardFactionValueId2

This field is used for reputation lookup in QuestFactionReward.dbc if quest_template#RewardFactionValueId is 0. Value X in this field indicates RepX column of QuestFactionReward.dbc. If RewardRepValueId is positive, reputation from the first row of QuestFactionReward.dbc will be used, for negative values the second row is used.

RewardNextQuest

** RewardNextQuest (Old field name: NextQuestIdChain)**

The quest entry from a creature or gameobject that ends a quest and starts a new one. The result is, that if you end the quest, the new quest instantly appears from the quest giver.

See the examples section for examples.

RewardXPDifficulty

According to the Level, the basic experience with index RewardXPDifficulty is taken from QuestXP.dbc.

This field also controls the XP given as the XP is calculated from the value in this field by the following formula. If the quest is repeatable, XP will be given only once. The total XP that a character will receive is also affected by the level difference between the character's level and the quest's level.

The formula for calculating XP from the value in this field:

• QuestLevel >= 65: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 6.0
• QuestLevel h1. 64: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 4.8
• QuestLevel 63: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 3.6
• QuestLevel h1. 62: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 2.4
• QuestLevel 61: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 1.2
• QuestLevel <= 60: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 0.6

RewardMoney

Money earned by completing the quest (if value > 0) or money requirement to complete the quest (if value < 0) .

RewardMoneyDifficulty

ID refers to one of the money factor included in MoneyFactor ordered by level.

RewardBonusMoney

The money a character at level 80 would get when they complete this quest.

RewardDisplaySpell

Spell that is shown to be casted on quest completion in the quest log. Note that this spell will NOT be casted if RewardSpell is non-zero. The spell in the other field will be casted instead, in which case the spell here only serves as the visual in the quest log.

RewardSpell

Spell that is shown to be casted on quest completion in the quest log. Note that this spell will NOT be casted if RewardSpellCast is non-zero. The spell in the other field will be casted instead, in which case the spell here only serves as the visual in the quest log.

NOTE: This field comes straight from the WDB and should not be changed.

RewardHonor

Number of honorable kill honor rewarded for completing this quest.

Example: An example value is 15 for quest 8388: At level 80 an honorable kill is 124 honor worth. Multiply this with 15 and you receive 1860, after the multiplication the value is rounded up. So the honor rewarded at level 80 is 1860 for this quest.

RewardKillHonor

StartItem

Items given by the quest giver at beginning of the quest. Items will be deleted when quest is abandoned.
