Introduction[]
Quests are special missions which are assigned to your empire. Completing quests will give you rewards, and can even help you win the game.
Quests are acquired from different sources: Exploring ruins, interacting with Minor Factions, and also through your special faction Main Quest
Main Quest[]
Each faction is provided with a unique quest arc, which will lead it to critical lore on the game world and faction history, as well as result in bonuses which can help win the game.
The faction quest is divided into chapters which are unlocked after each previous chapter has been completed. Some chapters can also offer random branches, meaning that you will have a different experience if you replay the game.
Side quests[]
Side quests are secondary quests provided by random elements in the game world. Completing these quests is still very useful, especially for the pacification of Minor Factions. It is, however, possible to fail these quests, though they will not have a major impact on the game victory.
Objectives / Rewards[]
A quest goal is determined by objectives which must be completed in sequence; some quests have only one objective. When there are several objectives, succeeding ones are usually kept secret until they are unlocked.
For each completed objective you receive a reward whose value corresponds to the difficulty of the objective. Rewards can be of different kinds: Dust, Resources, equipment for units, research discoveries, and even new Heroes.
Quest Screen[]
You will receive a pop-up notice for new, completed, updated, or failed quests. You can open the Quest Screen at any time to manage your quests and check their status
Quests are classified by status (current, complete, failed), and can be browsed via a horizontal list. Simply click on a quest in the list to display its description, summary, and the objectives and their status.
Pin[]
To follow the progress of a specific quest, you can click on the “Pin” symbol in the Quests Journal of the Quest Screen. This will display a highlighted window in the upper right corner of the screen.
Showing the location of the quest[]
If you have difficulty finding the target or source of a quest, there is a Show Location button in all the various elements of the quests interface (Quest Screen, Pinned quest interface, Quest notification).
