Villa villa vici

The Villa quests in the noble district are quest chains that end up becoming, repeatable quests that scale to the players level. Enemies also drop blue loot pretty often.

The quests are as followed:

From the tavern in the noble district:

Marco: Collect Herbs.
Sarissa: Steal loot.
Gavion: (not sure if this one is repeatable yet) Gavion is upstairs in the tavern. edit: Broken, Gavion sends you to Conan with a map and note, but doesn't give you the map and note.

In the noble district:
Adal: Reclaim loot from bandits.
Rahim: Destroy Alchemy table.

I find these quest enjoyable ways to grind if I can't seem to find a place to quest and the next quest area is a few levels out of my reach.

Enjoy! I'll update on the Gavion quest when I complete more of it.

The just introduced a new one too... Called rescue someone....

With all the quests, I usually end up with over 1/2 a level each time... at level 54 I was getting 22k per quest. I start almost every play session with these quests and then head to my zone of choice. Not a day goes by that I don't ding once or twice.

Hmm... I think I may have to go back and give it another go... just hope 'It' doesnt happen again.

These are fun little quests if you just want to log in for an hour or so. There is a decent chance for blues also.

I still can't do the Villa Verde quests. I never got to finish collecting the valuables, ran out of mobs to kill so couldn't get the drops. Now I go in and it's still clear. I've tried unbinding the instance, no love.

Holy molly Tasia... I've never gotten off the ground floor in Verde... I always have 5/5 before heading upstairs.

If I were you...I would petition it. I know that's a pain in the ass, but other folks are doing these repeatable quests (reminds me of daily's in WoW), so you and anyone else with this problem should be too. I am sure it's something related to your character slot in your account. Something I am sure Funcom could fix relatively easily (if more people complained about it).

The XP is good, they are fun to do (IMO) and you get a nice chance for some blue drops.

I know of one I cant do because I killed all the mobs, but the others are repeatable for me. Is this the same for you Tas, or are they all broken?

P.s. Love the new sig!

Zphinnx did my sig. Me likey.

Only Villa Verde is broken for me. The other one I've been redoing resets daily. I think I will try to petition it. My problem was the first time I went in to free the woman, I killed most of the mobs on the bottom floor and a few on the top so when I got the quest to go back to get her valuables, I was only able to get 4/5 out of the rest of the instance. They dropped probably 1 in 6 for me so I quickly ran out of mobs. I abandoned the quest when I saw that the instance wasn't resetting for me.

I'm gone for the weekend unless Galerd and I get some playtime tonight so I'll try when we get back Sunday.

That one is broken for me too, its also the one I got peed on, so not like im in a hurry to get back in there... well, maybe to kill that guy again and again and again... anyways, there are more than just those 2, might want to look around a bit more for the others if you like to do them.

I have one of the Villas, now I cant remember the name, Lentilus? Have to save some poor wench, standing right next to her is the boss I have to kill also, but everytime I get him over haflway dead, he freakin teleports off to some other planet. Combat stops, and the only way I can get him to come back is leave the villa, go back to him, and beat him half dead again. Then he teleported, again. Arrrgh, I did that 5 times last night, and I finally took my toys and went home.

The teleporting guy is a pain, try to pull him back to a larger room so he doesn't end up going into the walls.

Aaaaah, thanks, I will try that tonight.

I thought I'd give some numbers on just how good the 4 Villa Quests are. The exp and loot scale with your level . . . so keep that in mind for the cash, and use the % of Level numbers as a guide for exp. If your level is 67, the actual numbers should work for you, too

Villa Verde: 19 silver, 185,493 exp, 19.8% of Level
Villa Amiel: 10 silver, 165,001 exp, 17.6% of Level
Villa Lentulus: 20 silver, 158,922 exp, 16.9% of Level
Villa Camillus: 14 silver, 194,781 exp, 20.8% of Level

Total: 63 silver, 704,197 exp, 75.1% of Level

I was going to track the time it took, but installing a new TV, having dinner, and my grandson's BDay party sorta got in the way. Might try again tomorrow.

Not thrilling to do, but good results for a couple of hours work. Especially useful during the "doldrums", ie, late 50s, 60s, and much of the 70s.
