The buttons are so un-responsive. It is so frustrating how many times you have to click to get it to do anything. Way too time consuming.

And why if you want to take something from your vault would you need to "click to take from you vault" then decide how many items you want to take from your vault? Three or four clicks to accomplish one task. Go back to the legacy version ... it wasn't broke, why try to fix it?

Thank you for the complete quest button with the items in inventory instead of turning them in first. (one step instead of 3 or more!) It seems to be going smoother tonight! :)

Not sure the point of having Sagi quests on Kumos site asking for an item as expensive as the [item=Deluxe Pumpkin Ice Cream], which is currently going for 4,986,005 sP, and won't even be giving anywhere close to a return on investments. Also, going from asking for two items to three, which all of them are expensive for Sagi quests, again, won't feel like I will be making anything by doing his quests. I had to quit that quest and give up on my last Sagi quest for the day. :'(

I do quests to earn Sp so I can play/gift others for birthdays/events/Lumi and not sure with these revamped quests would even be worth it. I buy a gold account simply for the quests and autopricing, otherwise I don't get much else out of it. I still see some ads so that wasn't completely blocking them by having a gold account. I know we all want to support the site but we as players still need to get some sort of value for turning over our hard earned real life money to help support the site.

I really like this quest bar, but I'm noticing it's outpacing parts of the site, like the NPC shops. The "Complete" button will show while my browser is trying to load the results of my purchase. Which, leads me to clicking it and losing out on the quest result page because my browser still loaded the NPC shop result. I've still completed the quest, I just have to take a quick peek in my inventory to see what I got. On the plus side, if I'm not sure if my user shop purchace is going through, the "Turn In" button pops up before the Usershop has stopped spinning.

Trying to catch up the last 5 years

I generally don't participate in stuff like this but I noticed this change last night while I was trying to finish my wizard quests on mobile. And it was a nightmare trying to do them with this new format. I don't understand why it went from having all the options listed (buy from user shops, remove from vault, etc) to having to click around multiple times just to get the requested items into your inventory. Especially when the buttons decide that they don't want to respond regardless of how many times they're clicked on.

Also what exactly is the purpose of each individual item having a "turn in" option? Afaik you can't complete a quest without having all of the items in your inventory, right? And you don't have to click the "turn in" option on each item for them to count as there when you click "complete quest".

It is much better now. Still missing the button to go back to the main quest page with all my quest givers on it. Over all, I did all but one Saggi quest. He asked for an item that was over a million and I wasn't going to spend that much on an item. Unfortunately he is the only quest giver I could finish up today. I will try more tomorrow when I have time and give more feedback.

he does pay, jsy! for a 15m item, he gave 18m. even with normal items, the payout is similar to current quests might not be intentional to ask high priced items for now, given last error mentioned

decided to try again, it does feel better and faster when theres no lag!

  • the indicator that you bought the item, is the instant green turn in button appearing
  • the redirection of reward page with a start question button i understand the compromise with folks complaining about being too easy.

smol details that bothers me the spyglass icon for search shop on the bar, but for item hover is account search!

when clicking the ss icon, the kumos page turn white (using darkmode) with you run out of time before actually showing the shop search? is really quick tho

[edit] got a screenshot

Good to know Sagi does pay out. He didn't for the other quests I spent over 250k on and only got back less than 200k so I was basing it off of that. Maybe it's ymmv like he is non-teating environment vs testing. I'll keep at it with him lol

ooh no! =( it was a risky move on my end based on initial quests it might have been the pool of items being bought and so prices went up, hopefully!

quests should feel rewarding even in the lowest reputation system. it is the main source of money for many players, myself included

ran into an issue where we had an item that saggi wanted but was unable to turn it in, have 3 of the item in our inventory and after 6 minutes of refreshing he just didnt want to take it, so had to quit quest rip

now we cant to saggi quests since even though we hit the quit button, when starting a 'new' quest its giving the same items as before.

Feedback on second day of the quest bar:

Issues with firefox browser seem to be resolved, it's a little cleaner and quicker now but I'm still not a fan of it. The thing that made the new kumos quests appealing for me was the less clicks involved, and now I feel like I'm basically back to doing quests on the regular site since I'm opening multiple tabs and clicking a lot. Also noticed that the "turn in" option requires a refresh of the page to proc, which is annoying.

Would much prefer to just go back to being able to select buy options on the quest page and turn in straight away. Having the quest bar as an optional extra is fine but I don't like that it's replacing the previous method when it could simply be additive to it.

Keith, what do you think is so wrong about the current quest set up?!?!

I also tried finding the forums via currency yesterday, when everything else was down, and that is a nightmare as well! After seeing "trees" everywhere and wondering about it, I finally figured out, this is a user and we don't see the thread name, but who posted where prominently with the thread name following and not emphasized at least?!? When I search for specific information/thread I want those sticking out and am not the slightest bit interested, who posted on it!!!! And there's a discomforting running bar at the top, while I can't find my way around on a page that again consists of a lot of spaces.

I know we have to get accustomed to it all, but kumos is just a huge labyrinth with lots of obstacles spread out everywhere.

Please keep it simple and sleek - one or the other confetti showers and rainbows and some colours is nice, but everything I see is just a huge timeconsuming, uninviting maze.

It completely defeats the purpose of making things more understandable and easier to navigate for new users - it's nice and colourful to look at, but once you want to use it, you're stuck and it's overwhelming. I just want to run away, even though I already know, what Subeta is all about and how it works.

edit: I gave testing another try - currency gives the "not sufficient items" error for ALL NPCs, kumos works. I bought from below, because of the button problem not resizing with window, completion button on top stayed greyed out, turn in buttons weren't there, had to refresh the page before being able to complete. I wished Saggi would ever ask me for those expensive items mentioned, so I'd get a worthwhile reward.

P.S. Thx for putting the item names back! I did 1 for Maleria, now the "turn in buttons were there and recognized the items in invy automatically and I could complete without refreshing the page. Either you were just working on it or - the lag was so bad it didn't happen before?

I've started the quests for today. On the plus side the site is a lot quicker.

I'm automatically using the shop searches on the legacy site because they bring up the options to buy from an NPC shop if the item is in stock or remove an item from one of my own shops if I have it. I'm not going to pay 5K for an item from a user shop if I can get it for 2K from an NPC shop or take it from my own shop.

Love the new banner that shows when you're on a quest. Can't tell you how many times I get distracted on legacy and forget to finish quests because of it 😆 at least now I can get distracted AND finish quests!

Only gripe I have at the moment is the "give up" button. For me it sits to the left of the Complete Quest button - and while pages load, the box they're in likes to change sizes. I was a little too quick to click before the page fully loaded and accidentally clicked "give up" a couple of times today due to the box changing sizes on me mid-click.

I don't think the button placement itself is bad, but I wish a confirmation window popped up for accidental clicks!

My thought! I'm always afraid to click "give up" by accident - esp. sad, in case one's already bought items worth a couple of 100ks. The only one I have forgotten to complete several times is Item Hunt head to desk.

It's so much faster today, good job!

Questing works fine for me today ... and I also learned that clicking on the greyed out "Complete Quest" button while not having completed the quest/not having all the items still triggers the mini confetti explosion. So I might just do that for the rest of the day :3 ✨

for everyone asking to bring back the old method—yeah, that’s not happening. 😭 it was simple, sure, but too simple. basically, if two users got the same item prompt, the first one would snag it from user shops, and the second would just get an error. and refreshing, potentially the same error if another user loaded the page. same issue with main shops. too many race conditions!

this wasn’t a big deal when like 100 people were questing, but now it’s closer to 400+ per reset, and those errors were getting out of hand.

so now you've gotta actually navigate the site. 🙃 i am working on cutting down the number of clicks, but this general setup is here to stay.

I don't understand a word. How do we navigate the site by clicking shop search or any of the other buttons? My questing on Subeta works like a charm as usual? The NPCs rarely ask or have asked for the same item like the kumos ones do. Very rarely have I ever encountered an "this item is not in this shop" when buying from shop search (questing or not) in all those years. If this is how it stays, I'm out. the legacy quests already take up enough time.

Still super clunky today. Lag not as bad, but so many clicks. Doing them on mobile is near impossible and taking me ages, not out of challenge but because the site is poor, buttons non-responsive, pages not optimised / zoomed in weirdly, sometimes load sometimes not...

I’ve done Sag’s and Wiz’s quests today and I don’t really want to do anymore. And that’s from someone that’s got alll the quest achievements.

I was super supportive of trying to take questing in a new direction, but this current iteration puts me firmly in the sceptic’s camp.
