This page is all about Overseer.

Overseer is a game-within-a-game, much like the Legends of Norrath (LoN) card game once was.

Overseer was added to EverQuest during the 21st Anniversary, in March 2022, however, it is not a 21st Anniversary feature, but does have 21st Anniversary Quests.

Overseer is more integrated into EQ than LoN was, even though there is no stand-alone version or application, like there was for LoN (you have to log into EQ to play it).

It is a generally passive side-activity that you can play in down time... or do while you play EQ normally (meaning it is not something you actually have to give full / dedicated attention to).

It is directly integrated into EQ in that the optional / varied Quest Rewards can include actual in-game rewards (noted below), in addition to the Overseer-only rewards (such as Agents).

UPDATE: In June 2020, Fippy Darkpaw was made available via a Marketplace-only purchase (part of the 'Overseer Starter Bundle,' which can be purchased only once)

UPDATE: The July 2021 Patch added new Agents and Quests. The new Agents can be acquired in the normal fashion (the Conversion & Recruitment quests).

UPDATE: In June 2022, new quests and twelve (12) new Agents were added related for the Scorched Sky event. The Scorched Sky Agent Pack was also added to the Marketplace, which contains the Scorched Sky Agents, however, you can get those same Agents via the Scorched Sky quests.

UPDATE: In July 2022, an Overseer Achievements category was added to the game.

UPDATE: In October 2022, new quests, Overseer Achievements and twelve (12) new Agents were added, related to the Nights of the Dead holiday. The Nights of the Dead Agent Pack was also added to the Marketplace containing the Nights of the Dead Agents. However, you can get those same Agents via the Nights of the Dead quests and Overseer Achievements.

UPDATE: In November 2022, new quests, Overseer Achievements and twelve (12) new Agents were added, related to the Frostfell holiday. The Frostfell Agent Pack was also added to the Marketplace containing the Frostfell Agents. However, you can get those same Agents via the Frostfell quests and Overseer Achievements.

UPDATE: In January 2023, an 'Auto Fill' button was added to the quest tab, that will fill in the potentially best agents automatically for the quest selected... if you have agents that fit the criteria, that is.

UPDATE: In August 2023, new quests, an Achievement and twelve (12) new agents were added, related to the Stone Cold Summer holiday. The Stone Cold Agent Pack was also added to the Marketplace containing the Stone Cold Summer Agents. However, you can get those same Agents via the Stone Cold Summer quests and Overseer Achievements.

UPDATE: In November 2023, new quests, an Achievement and twelve (12) new agents were added, related to the Feast of Giving holiday. The Feast of Giving Agent Pack was also added to the Marketplace containing the Feast of Giving Agents. However, you can get those same Agents via the Feast of Giving quests and Overseer Achievements.

.......................................................

OVERSEER WINDOW

To play Overseer, you must first log into EverQuest with a character that is Level 85, or higher, and on a server that has the Seeds of Destruction expansion unlocked. Because of this Level 85 requirement, you cannot play Overseer when you are Shrouded (Shrouds only go to Level 70).

To play, you can open up the Overseer Window with the command /overseer, or use the link from the EQ Button (EQ --> Quests --> Overseer).

You can play on Free-to-Play accounts, under the same qualifications, noted above.

Overseer is an account-server game. While you can play Overseer on any character (that meets the qualifications), they are all playing the same game... it is shared by every character on your account and on the same server. Due this, if you change servers with a character, all of the Agents and Overseer progression they had access to, on the previous server, will be lost.

To be more specific, lets say you have (8) characters that are Level 85+ on the Bertoxxulous server. All (8) of them can open and play Overseer, but they will be sharing the same Overseer game. They are not playing a separate / different Overseer game.

This applies to each qualifying server that you may have qualifying characters on.

Either way, you will open up the Overseer Window that has four tabs. It will automatically open to the first tab.

The tabs are called QUESTS, AGENTS, ACTIVE QUESTS & STATS.

The Overseer Window may appear on your screen is a size that does not clearly reveal all of the sectioned windows on each tab, and in particular the Quests Tab. You can drag and resize the entire window, as well as most of the individual window sections / partitions, in order to get it to a size / look that suits you best.

One tricky section is on the Quests Tab is the Agent section (right side middle window). That section may just have one Agent selection box, or two, or three... or more! The more Agent selection boxes a Quest has, the deeper that section will get. Luckily, there is a scroll bar on the right side. Use the scroll bar rather than trying to resize the Overseer Window and / or that section to see them all at the same time (the Overseer window is quite large).

^TOP

.......................................................

QUEST REWARDS

Overseer Quests, if they succeed, offer one or more Quest Reward options that you can choose from.

When you finish a Quest successfully, you will see a "Collect Reward" button. Click that and you will get a "Select a Reward" (Quest Reward) window, that will allow you to choose one of the reward options.  

• (1) "Reward Choices" (left side, top) lists your reward options. Highlight (click on) any one to see the rewards it offers, in the top right side window.
• (2) The top right side window details the reward(s) you can get with the option you selected in the top left window (see #1, above).
• (3) The bottom section of the window provides a little more detail on those rewards. You can highlight (click on) any item / reward in the top right window and detail about that particular item / reward will be revealed in this window.

Rewards options can include one, or more, of the following:

• Character Experience (real experience for the EQ character that you accept the reward on, as well as Mercenary Experience);
• Mercenary Experience (real experience for the mercenary of the EQ character that you accept the reward on... NOTE: Even though it may not make sense, the Character Experience option, noted above, is actually better experience for your Mercenary than this option);
• Overseer Tetradrachms (alternative currency that can be used to purchase items from a mysterious presence (in PoK), in an amount that is a 100 times the optional Character experience, above);
• Ornamentation Dispenser is an item that will allow to to choose from a number of Ornamentation sets. Claiming the Ornamentation Dispenser (open the item window and click the claim button) will cause a reward window will pop up, where you can select one of the noted Ornamentation sets. You will then get an item named for the set that you chose. Claim that item and another reward window will pop up, where you can select an actual Weapon, Bow or Shield Ornamentation from the set that you selected.
• Tradeskill Item Assortment, from one of several previous expansions (you chose the expansion... you can see how many, and of what, that you will get, before you take the option);
• Collection Item Fragment is an item that you will need to acquire (4) of, before it is of any use to you. Once you have (4) of them, click any one of them to combine them into an actual Collection Item Dispenser. Claiming the Collection item Dispenser will open a reward window where you can select from a previous expansion (back to the Call of the Forsaken), for which you may need a collect item from. Once done, you will get another item named for the expansion you selected. Then, in turn, claiming that item will open another reward window for which you can choose a zone from the expansion that you chose. Once done, you will get yet another item named for the zone that you chose. Claim that item and you will get another reward window where you can select an actual collect item, from among the various collect sets of the zone that you selected (not all collects are necessarily included, and thus, you may not be able get the one you needed or wanted).
• Overseer Agent(s) are also possible rewards, of various types, and of various amounts (one, or two, or several). They are awarded on a random basis (you do not get to select a specific Agent) and they are automatically added to your Agents listings.
• Overseer Experience, generally, is awarded as part of any reward option you may choose. This experience can be any (1) of the (11) Overseer Experience categories (which category is noted in the Reward options). You can see these categories on the Stats Tab in you Overseer Window. According to the in-game Overseer Tips, these stats result in your being offered higher level Quests. However, some believe they may also play into the success rates (of their given) categories and thereby reducing the possible incapacitation of Agents.
• Critical Fail & Success: There are sometimes 'Critical' fails and 'Critical' successes with Quests. When that happens, rewards (or penalties) are increased.

UPDATE: In the past, you had to have your Mercenary active in order to get in Mercenary Experience from claiming Overseer tasks. They changed that with the October 2021 Patch, where this is no longer required / necessary.

.......................................................

AGENTS TAB

The Agents Tab is where you can see all of the Agents that you currently have. 

Agents are the characters that you assign to do quests for you.

Agents can be acquired in (3) different ways:

• Purchased items from the Marketplace;
• Purchased from the specialty Overseer Vendor ("a mysterious presence") using Overseer Tetradrachms, in the Plane of Knowledge;
• Earned / awarded via Overseer Quests (recruiting quests, critical successes, conversion quests). 

• (1) In the Agents Tab of the Overseer Window, there are four (4) optional-use drop-down selection menus, where you can sort your Agents by various categories, or a combination of categories. 
• (2) Your Agents will appear on the left side of the Agents Tab of your Overseer window, limited by any selections you made (as above, #1). Highlight (click on) any Agent and details about that Agent will appear in the right side of Agents Tab window. Agents with 'grayed-out" names are ones that are currently unavailable (they are either all ready on a Quest or "Incapacitated" in some way). If you have more than one of the same Agent, they will be listed in individually in this window.
• (3) On the right-side top, of your Agents Tab, is the graphic assigned to the Agent you selected (see above, #2 -- it will highlight in yellow). Oddly, the graphic assigned to many agents may not seem to match their traits (see #5, below). So, just because they are a Gnome, does not mean their graphic will show a character that appears to be a Gnome! In short, don't gauge a character by it's graphic! Under that graphic you can see that Agents current Status. If an Agent is incapacitated in some way, you will see a timer as to how long it will be before they "Recover." You will also see a button to "Recover" -- which will allow you to expend Marketplace funds to recover that Agent immediately, and get them right back into action.
• (4) Just below the Agent's graphic is a "Jobs" listing, showing their Job specialties, and their skill level in those Job(s).
• (5) The bottom section of the right window outlines that characters personal Traits (Race, Physical & Personality). Traits can be of benefit, or detriment, for Quests.
• NOTE: In the top right corner of the Agent Tab, you will see a button called "Retire." Retiring an Agent is outlined below.
• NOTE: You may also notice that many Agents are listed a "Iconic" (i.e. "Uncommon Iconic," rather than just "Uncommon"). This is also explained below.
• NOTE: In the very top right corner of your Overseer Window, there is a "?" icon. You can click that to open an "Overseer Tips" window, for basic / generic in-game info about Overseer (see image, below). You can click the text-based links within the window to see different "pages" about the topic you clicked on. At the bottom of the window, there are two selection boxes about not showing tips, and a button to close the window.

^TOP

.......................................................

RETIRING AGENTS

In the top right side corner of the Agents Tab in your Overseer Window, there is a "Retire" button.

This button will "retire" whatever Agent you currently have selected. Whenever you do this, you will get an in-game claimable item.

With an Uncommon Agent you will get an item called "Uncommon Agent Echo." This item can be claimed to select experience for any (1) of the (11) Stats categories; or, you can take (2) Common Agents (randomly selected, you do not get to choose them).

With a Rare Agent you will get an item called "Rare Agent Echo." This item can be claimed to select from experience for any (1) of the (11) Stats categories; or, you can take (2) Uncommon Agents (randomly selected, you do not get to choose them).

With an Elite Agent you will get an item called "Elite Agent Echo." This item can be claimed to select experience for any (1) of the (11) Stats categories; or, you can take (2) Rare Agents (randomly selected, you do not get to choose them).

You cannot retire a Common Agent, but you can trade them up (3 for 1), with a Quest called "Common Conversion." What happens is that you trade in (3) Common Agents (they will be removed from your Agent listings) to get (1) random Uncommon Agent (that will be added to your Agents listings). You can also do this with Uncommon and Rare Agents (Uncommon Conversion & Rare Conversion Quests).

HOWEVER... keep in mind that trading up Agents it is a 3 for 1 trade out. Thus, at the very minimum, it means at least 27 Common Agents are technically needed to acquire 1 Elite Agent. So, retiring Agents may not the best option, unless you have 3+ of the same type of non-Iconic Agents, or 2+ of the same Iconic Agents. Trading up does reduce your overall Agent pool by (2) Agents every time you do it, and having a variety of available Agents, with assorted Job skills and Traits is essential for undertaking the Quests. In short, you don't want to deplete your Agents pool! Make sure you keep at least one, or more, of every Agent.

^TOP

.......................................................

ICONIC

You may notice that some Agents include the word "Iconic" in their category classification.

Example, "Uncommon Iconic," rather than just "Uncommon."

Iconic Agents can only be used one at a time. Thus, even if you have (5) of the same Iconic Agents, when you use (1) of them on a Quest, the other (4) become unusable (the others cannot be sent out on a Quest, at the same time one of them is all ready on a Quest). In fact, if one becomes "Incapacitated" -- they all are! Think of Iconic Agents like "Lore Equipped" for items in the game. You can possess more than one of them, but you can only use (equip) one of them at a time!

UPDATE: Conversion quests no longer disallow multiple iconic agents of the same type. So, if you have (2) or (3) of the same iconic agent you want to convert, you can do so now.

As a note, Common Agents are never Iconic, thus retaining at least (2) or more of them, at all times, might be a good idea. 

^TOP

.......................................................

AGENT STATUSES

There are (3) Statuses your Agents can have, as follows:

• READY: This means your Agent is available to use for Quest assignments, if needed.
• QUESTING: This means this specific Agent is currently assigned to a Quest and is not available for assignment. In the case of Iconic Agents, it means at least one of them are currently being used on a  Quest or is incapacitated (see below), making them all unavailable. However, non-Iconic Agent duplicates always be utilized.
• INCAPACITATED: Incapacitated can include a myriad of descriptions (missing, blacklisted, shaken, captured, etc.), but they all mean the same thing...  this specific Agent is not currently available to be assigned to a Quest. In the case of Iconic Agents, if one of them is incapacitated, they are all essentially incapacitated. Recovery times can vary and can even be several days long (real time). You can simply wait on them to recover; or you can undertake a Recovery Quest to get them back in action (NOTE: Be wary of the Recovery timer vs. the Quest timer, if the is Quest timer is longer than  the Recovery timer, don't waste a Quest slot); or you Recover them immediately, if you expend Marketplace funds (NOTE:  This should not be done for a non-Iconic Agent, particularly if you have multiples of that Agent... as it would be a waste of Marketplace funds). 

^TOP

.......................................................

RARITY

There are (4) types of Agent "Rarity."

Rarity might be best thought of as Agent Levels... 1, 2, 3 & 4. The higher the level, the better and more varied their Job skills can be. They can also have a wider range of Traits.

This makes them more versatile and useful in not only making certain Quests possible to undertake, but in having the beneficial Traits that can better insure the success of those Quests.

There are Quests to trade (3) Agents of one type, for (1) Agent of the next higher type... meaning you can trade (3) Common Agents for (1) Uncommon Agent; or (3) Uncommon Agents for (1) Rare Agent; or (3) Rare Agents for (1) Elite Agent.

Be wary if you do this! Keep in mind that Agent Job skills and / or Traits are needed to undertake Quests and / or boost the chances that those Quests will succeed. If you trade too many away, you can loose Agents with needed Job skills and / or Traits. It is a good idea to build up a pool of Agents, especially Common (non-Iconic) Agents, before trading them up. With Iconic Agents, if you only have one of them, never trade them out. Try to make sure you have at least one of each!

You can also acquire higher level Agents via the Marketplace or, potentially, as Quest Rewards.

The Rarity of an agent is can also be determined by the color in which the agent is highlighted, such as on the Agents Tab: Common = Gray; Uncommon = Green; Rare = Light Blue; Elite = Yellow. Many Players use the "color" to describe Agents / Quests, rather the category (i.e. Common, Rare, etc.).

^TOP

.......................................................

QUESTS TAB

The Quests Tab of your Overseer Window is where you select quests and assign Agents to undertake Quests.

There are some Quests that are related to special events. In that Overseers was added to the game during the 21st Anniversary events, 21st Anniversary Overseer Quests were included. These Quests are now part of the standard Quest rotation, year round. Other seasonal Quests have been added since then, that are only included in the Overseer Quest rotation when the related Seasonal Events are active (to include Scorched Sky, Nights of the Dead & Frostfell).

LIMITATIONS: You can only have (5) quests active at the same time (on the Active Quests Tab). You can only complete (10) quests per rotation (aka quest cycle, or every 12 hours). The "Conversion" Quests are an exception to this rule (you can do them even if you all ready have (5) Quests active).

• (1) On the top left side, you will see a timer, "Rotate in:" -- which tells you how long it will be before available Quests recycle. When they recycle ("rotate") -- the Quests you see as available to you (as many as 20+) is random, with the exception of "Conversion" Quests (always there) and "Recovery" Quests (based on if you have any incapacitated Agents or not).
• (2) Below that timer, you will see a list of Quests that are currently available for you to do. You may notice that the Quests are highlighted in different colors. These colors relate to the level or difficulty of the Quests. The Quests are highlighted (related to their Level) in Gray, then Green, then Light Blue, then Yellow and then Purple. The higher the level, the more & higher Level Agents it can call for. Click on any Quest to see details about that Quest on the right side.
• (3) The top right window will reveal details about the Quest you selected, to include the name of the Quest; the Level of the Quest (difficulty, as noted above); the lore (the story of what the quest is about); the "Duration" (how long it will take to finish the Quest in real time); the probability of success expressed as a percentage (this percentage will increase / decrease as you assign Agents); a "Start Quest!" button (this button will not become active until you have assigned the minimal number of required Agents); and a "Preview Reward" button (clicking this will allow you to preview the Quest Reward options that you will be able to choose from, if the Quest succeeds).
• (4) The middle section on the right side is where you assign Agents to the Quest. There may be just one Agent Selection Box, or two, or three,  or more. Be aware that you may not see all of them because of the box size. The window does have a scroll bar on the right side, so you can scroll down to see if there are additional Agent options, and how many. This section of the window can be resized, but the scroll bar is the better option. You have to select each Agent separately, by scrolling down to each Agent Selection Box. Each Agent Selection Box may have a noted Job and skill level (i.e. Spy (1) as in the above image). You will also notice that each Agent Selection Box has a category called "Bonuses" and a category called "Negatives," that may, or may not, list one, or more, Traits beside them. Assigning Agents with any, or all of, the "Bonus" Traits will increase the success percentage. If they have any of the "Negative" Traits, it will reduce the success percentage. Therefore, strive to use only Agents that meet the required Job / skill level, as well as  having the (optional) "Bonus" Traits. Try to avoid the "Negative" Traits. When you click on any Agent selection box, your available / qualified Agent options will automatically populate the lower section of the window. If any of them have an exclamation mark ("!"), it means they qualify, but are currently unavailable to use. Make your Agent selections by clicking on an Agent in the lower section,  and repeat for as many Agents the Quest requires. Then, click the "Start Quest!" button to start the Quest.
• (5) The bottom window on the right side is where you can choose what Agent(s) to assign to a Quest (explained above).

UPDATE: In January 2023, an 'Auto Fill' button was added to the quest tab, that will fill in the potentially best agents automatically for the quest selected... if you have agents that fit the criteria, that is.

^TOP

.......................................................

TRAITS

Traits is a multi-faceted category, that covers race, class, physical attributes and personality.

Every Agent will (should) have a class and a race, at a minimum.

They may, or may not, also have one or more physical and / or personality Traits

These Traits are beneficial / needed ("Bonuses") attributes for Quests, that serve to increase the chances a Quest will be successful.

However, they can also be detrimental Traits ("Negatives"), that can reduce the chances of success for Quests.

Sometimes, an Agent may even have both "Bonus" and "Negative" Traits, at the same time.

^TOP

.......................................................

JOBS

Jobs are a determining (required) Agent factor on if you can undertake any given Quest, or not.

If a quest requires an Agent with a certain (required) Job skill at a certain (required) skill level, then you can not do that Quest unless you have an Agent available that meets the qualification(s).

Example, you may see a Quest where the first Agent requires "Scholar (3)." If you do not have an available Agent with a Scholar skill level of (3) (or higher), you will not be able to undertake that Quest.

Agents that show a Question Mark ("?") (#2 in below image) mean the listed requirements are optional, and they can be used even if they don't have any of the listed Job Skill requirements. However, meeting those requirements does increase chances of success, as do the listed Traits).

^TOP

.......................................................

ACTIVE QUESTS TAB

The Active Quests Tab of your Overseer Window is where you can see the Quests that you currently have active (in progress).

You can only have five (5) active Quests at any given time ("Conversion" Quests are an exception to this rule). This includes Quests that have technically finished, but you have not yet clicked the button to finish them (rather they they have failed or succeeded). Until you do that, the Quest will remain on your "active" list and continue to be counted as an "Active" Quest.

Quests can take a varying amount of time, from about 10 seconds to 24+ hours. You can expedite this process using Marketplace funds -- with no guarantee of success if you do so (they can still fail), or you can simply wait on the timers and let them finish on their own. You can also "Abandon" a Quest, if you want to (remove them as an active Quest, noted below).

• (1) The left side lists any Quests that to you currently have in progress and / or have not "claimed" (successful or not). Highlight a Quest (click on it) and details about that quest will appear on the right side window. 
• (2) On the top right, you can see the name and details of the Quest that you selected, to include how long is left on the timer ("Duration") before it will finish (real time); the chance that it will succeed in the form of a percentage ("Success"); a "Finish Now!" button that will allow you to finish the Quest immediately by expending Marketplace funds; and a "Preview Reward" button that will allow you to see the Quest Reward options you can choose from, if you succeed.
• (3) In the lower part of the right side, you can see what Agents are assigned to the Quest, and what "Bonuses" or "Negatives" they may have, relative to the Quest. You will also see their "Incapacitation Risk," in percentage form (their chances of becoming incapacitated, rather the Quest is successful or not). When a Quest completes, those same boxes will reveal the fate of Agent (if they were incapacitated it will say why).
• NOTE: There is also an "Abandon" button in the top right of the window. Clicking this button allows you to "abandon" the current Quest. If you do, the Quest will end immediately. The Quest will be removed from your active Quest list, the Agents will be immediately available again, and there will be no Quest Rewards (you did not finish the Quest). Nor are no penalties for quitting a Quest. The only reasons to do this, really, is that you decided a different Quest would be better to undertake (better rewards) and / or one of the Iconic Agents would be best used (needed) on a different Quest.
• Quests can fail or succeed. A failed quest means there is no reward and the greater chance Agent(s) become incapacitated.

^TOP

.......................................................

STATS TAB

The Stats Tab of your Overseer Window is where you can see your Stats, related to  "Progress" Levels and Agents.

• (1) "Progress" (left side) has eleven categories that are actually experience bars. Quest Rewards, normally, include experience that will go into one of the (11) experience bars, depending on the type (category) of Quest it was. These experience bars do NOT seem upgrade your Agents. THEORY: According to the in-game Overseer Tips, these stats simply result in your being offered higher level Quests. However, some believe they may also play into the success rates (of their given) categories and thereby reducing the possible incapacitation of Agents. NOTE: Stats max out at Level (5).
• (2) "Overall Stats" (right side) are your statistics... total Quests succeeded, failed, abandoned, critically failed and critically succeeded... as well as how many Agents you have and their status.

^TOP

.......................................................

STATS

Your Stats can be viewed in the Stats Tab of your Overseer Window.

They show you an Agent overview (count), Quest results / history (counts), and your "Progress" in the (11) categories of Overseer experience.

See above.

^TOP

.......................................................

OVERSEER TETRADRACHMS

Overseer Tetradrachms are yet another form of EverQuest alternative currency.

They are an optional Quest Reward from Overseer Quests.

Overseer Tetradrachms can be spent / used with the specialty Overseer Vendor (a mysterious presence in PoK, see below).

^TOP

.......................................................

OVERSEER VENDOR

The alternative currency, Overseer Tetradrachms, one of the potential Quest Rewards from Overseer Quests, can be used (spent) via the specialty Overseer Vendor ("a mysterious presence"), who is found in the Plane of Knowledge, outside / behind the library.

Items sold by this vendor include unique Armor Ornaments (Ak'Anon Clockwork ornaments) and / or Weapon / Shield / Bow Ornaments; "August" augmentations (lower level augmentations); Ultron's Ultimate Unattuner; Token of Resurrection; Crystallized Luck; one-use illusion potions; McKenzie's Special Brew (another alternative currency that is used / spent with Old Man McKenzie, who is also in the Plane of Knowledge); and even Agents.

There is rumor that more items "may" be added to this vendor, in the future.

^TOP

.......................................................

MARKETPLACE

The Marketplace is optionally tied into Overseer in three ways. Using Marketplace funds, you can...:

• (1) Purchase more Agents in assorted amounts from assorted offerings;
• (2) Finish quests immediately;
• (3) Recover Agents immediately.

Use of the Marketplace is 100% optional. You can 100% play Overseer without using any Marketplace Funds at all.

• (1) To finish a Quest immediately, select a Quest in the Active Quests Tab of your Overseer Window, where you will see a  "Finish Now!" button. If you click that button, another window will pop up (see #3, below).
• (2) The "Preview Reward" button can be clicked to see the Quest Reward options of the given Quest, if it succeeds.
• (3) This window pops up when you click the "Finish Now!" button. It details what it will cost to finish the Quest right away, and the options to either "Cancel" the action, or to "Complete Purchase." If you chose to complete the purchase, the Quest will end right away. HOWEVER! Be aware that using Marketplace funds to finish a Quest DOES NOT GUARANTEE SUCCESS! It can still fail!

QUESTS

Overseer is basically a game where you assign Agents to go do Quests for you.

Each Quest can take a varying amount of time (from a few seconds to days, in real time). If successful, you can claim a Quest Reward.

You can only undertake (5) Quests, at the same time ("Conversion" Quests are an exception to this rule).
