Reputation Quests

Reputation Quests are part of an end-game feature introduced in October, 2018, with version 2.2.1. The purpose of the Reputation system is to build status with three allied guilds: the Mighty Lions, the Whiskers and the Zenpaws. (The main trio of heroes originally meet these guilds and their leaders in the Main Story Quest.) The feature unlocks at guild level 20 and the quests appear on the Questboard, randomly, at quest level 6 and above. The other aspects of the system can be accessed through the Reputation board to the left of the archway on the guild hall screen.

Reputation quests are a kind of Normal Quest, eg. for purposes of Missions, meaning they do not have stories or dialogs. But they have several features that distinguish them from other Normal quests: They always recommend six skills to be met by filling three cat slots; they are much lengthier in duration, from 4 to 6 hours each; and Reputation tokens are their only rewards besides XP and gold. Earning tokens from Reputation quests is a preliminary step in a larger system of progressive levels and rewards.

## Reputation Tokens

Each allied guild has a unique Reputation token and dedicated quests that award only their own tokens. As tokens are acquired, they are stored in inventory until delivered to the guilds via the Reputation board. Tokens act something like XP in that they are applied toward increasing a player's status levels with the three guilds. Each guild tracks progress individually on separate tabs of the board, which show how many tokens are needed to advance to the next level. The inventory holds a maximum of 100 of each kind of token and there is no minimum amount that can be turned in at one time, so players are advised to deliver their tokens often. In cases where the number of tokens in inventory is greater than the amount needed to reach the next level, the leftover tokens remain in inventory, as token delivery is suspended during the level-up process; players can, however, continue to earn tokens from quests.

### Token Requirements

Again like most XP systems, the number of tokens required to reach the next level increases progressively, from 24 up to 400 tokens to get to the maximum level of 50. Even after reaching that maximum level, players can continue earning and turning in tokens indefinitely. Although the level indicator will not go above 50, token tracking continues and the level-up process, including rewards (described in the next section), still occurs every time a guild receives another 400 tokens.

## Reputation Levels

Each time a player delivers enough tokens to reach a new level with a particular ally, a Reputation chest is awarded and can be claimed after 24 hours of crafting time. (Or it can be claimed instantly with a payment of gems, much as it is with Alchemy crafting.) Each chest contains a random prize drawn from a pool that gets expanded at various milestone levels, as detailed in the table below. Upon reaching level 50 with a particular ally, a player becomes eligible to receive from the chest a special Legendary hero associated with that guild. It is important to note, however, that chest rewards are random, and *the cat is not guaranteed to be in the chest awarded at level 50*. To win the cat, and any other unique rewards not already obtained, players must continue to earn tokens, deliver them and craft chests, although the Reputation levels are capped at 50 and will not show any increase.

## Quest List

Reputation quests appear on the Questboard randomly: sometimes no such quests will appear while other quest resets will generate multiple Reputation quests, from the same or different guilds. All Reputation quests have six recommended skills and require three heroes. They each cost up to 4 rare materials *or* 1 or 2 common embers, in addition to between four and 18 thousand coins, with exact amounts depending on the level of the quest. The duration of the quests and their rewards also vary with quest level.

## Quotes

Each allied guild's tab on the Reputation board is hosted by the leader of that guild: Astrid for the Whiskers, Aslan for the Mighty Lions, and Aya for the Zenspaws. They all have individualized dialogs at particular stages of the level-up process.

## Trivia

* As an introduction to the Reputation system, all players were given 100 free Whiskers tokens, allowing them to immediately begin crafting a Whiskers Reputation Chest.
	+ The first thing players receive out of their first Whiskers chest is a new fur pattern.
* The motif on the Whiskers token  looks like an upside-down version of the "danger" shadowmark from the RPG *Skyrim*.
	+ Astrid is also the name of the leader of The Dark Brotherhood in Skyrim.
* The original Whiskers token was brown with a wooden texture.
