Can anything be done about multiquesting?

The only way to stop MQs will be if the devs disable them.

However, MQs are classic, so that probably isn't happening.

They went through all the trouble of programming them in. Wouldn't make sense to take them out again.

I don't think they should remove multiquesting. I think an GM enforced list / rotation for epic pieces would be sufficient.

I'm a necro and never plan to get my epic because its ugly and fashionquest is a thing so I'm not being biased. I went to hate 15 times to get my hand for enchanter and that was hard enough without farmers making things more difficult.

Spoken like a tunnel trader.

Yeah. You know me. I'm in EC 24/7.

Or, I've been playing on this server long enough to remember the time when there were no JBoots MQ's, because they hadn't been programmed in yet. Every MQ in the game had to be coded separately, unless I'm mistaken. Haynar could probably tell you all about it.

I doubt thats the case - when it comes to programming things tend to be very modular - if you have an npc it likely inherited most of its behaviours from a basic npc class that all npcs use and then has additional behaviours specific to its npc type that it shares with all npcs of its type and then if its a special npc has its own special behaviours

you may be right but its more likely mq npcs have shared mq code that reference a table to select the correct item to deliver

Regardless of that just because code was implemented 6 years ago doesnt mean it shouldnt be modified or switched off if player behaviour diviates so much from live that circumstances require it to be

They probably found a better solution, but these are the discussions I remember.

Seems like it was implemented quest by quest:
