Quest Profitability
9 months, 26 days & 3 hrs ago
29th Feb 2024 08:29 Im not much of a quester so not sure how much info Ill put in here, but Ive always been interested in how much profit you can actually make from different quests so thought Id start a blog and maybe keep track of some.
For all these quests I tried to buy everything, rarely using things I already had in my attic.
Haunted House
I do have the Double Crystals GB so get 2 crystals per quest instead of 1.

Leprechaun
For this run, it was quest of the day earning 25% extra MP. I have used these figures but also included what it would have been if it wasn’t in brackets. I got one bonus prize of ‘15k RP’ which at 25% extra earned me 18,750 RP. RP earned includes any I got from restocking too.
I got the impression whilst doing these quests that the shops were really empty and I had to buy a lot more from SS than normal. I believe it could be done cheaper if this wasn’t the case.
