Default Can any NEW quests be discovered on p99?

I'm unfamiliar with how the developers were able to code in all the quests and items, etc... so my question is, can you actually discover new quests that may have been undiscovered in the original Everquest (or perhaps discovered but no one ever posted about it)?

Is it a waste of time to try and find a use for an item that drops that has no known uses on any Wiki's out there? Or do the Titanium files actually automatically have these quests implemented, so you could actually find the use?

I like trying to find new things, but I want to be sure I'm not wasting my time.

Quests are scripted on the server back-end, so the quests that exist are only the ones that were solved and documented enough to be able to recreate through code scripts.

You won't find any new quests, until they come out with custom content on a future server (if ever).

Broken quest dialogue is included where possible. Quests are purposely broken until the appropriate patch era corrected them, but as for unsolved quests with a reward, you won't find those here.

Damn, disappointing to hear. I was hoping it was all enabled in the Titanium file source code [You must be logged in to view images.

But thanks for the quick reply back you guys!

Which does suck, We went circles yesterday trying to see if the Ruru and Gundrash question was doable. Sadly it was/is broken.

Shame too cuz there are items out there that probably should be quest related but aren't. Like Gnawfang's tooth and pelt and Cracktusk's tusks.

the glowing black stone is supposed to be used for a quest, but no one ever figured it out!

From Prathun:

Quote:

“Looks like the Glowing Black Stone is the item required to complete the quest described as "APPQuestJohnC"
The "APP" prefix means it was created by a design apprentice who was tinkering with the tools and learning the game. This isn't a quest that can actually be completed. Years later, when QUEST flags were applied to items APPQuestJohnC was picked up in the query and the GBS was flagged as a quest item. I don't know who JohnC is. The quest was created on 2/26/2000 so this predates me by over 2 years.

Hope this helps solve the mystery!
-Prathun”

Rat King is a mob that spawns in catacombs /sewers of qeynos . You can kill him when he spawns and drops a head item, which you turn in to temple of katana for some random leather armor i believe rawhide.
