Allied Society Quests

Allied Society Quests are comprised of main quests, which chart the trials and tribulations of a specific society, and daily quests involving myriad requests and issues to resolve.

After completing the first main quest for an allied society, players can accept up to three daily quests per day (Earth time). Completing daily quests improves your reputation with that society, which in turn unlocks further main quests.

Allied Society Quests

Quest Sync

The Pelupelu allied society main quests and daily quests will employ an automatic level adjustment system known as quest sync, which will match the difficulty of the battles to the player's current job and class levels. Any experience received upon the completion of these quests will be adjusted accordingly. Furthermore, certain quests will not allow players to proceed with a class or job that is different than when they accepted them.

Allied Society Currency

Players can earn Pelu pelplumes by completing Pelupelu daily quests. These can be exchanged with Pavli in Dock Poga (X:37.1 Y:16.1) for a variety of items. The number of Pelu pelplumes currently held is displayed in the Currency window.
