Quests
Set bite-sized goals that reward members with XP and roles, daily, weekly, or one-time. (Pro)
Quests are small, clear goals you set for members. "Send 10 messages." "Reach Level 5." Finish one and it pays out XP, and a role if you like. They're a great way to nudge the behaviour you want.
What it does
You create the quests. HoneyGate tracks each member's progress automatically and hands out the reward when they finish.
Setting it up
In the admin panel, open Quests and create a quest:
- Give it a name and description.
- Pick the goal type:
- Messages sent
- XP earned
- Voice minutes
- Reactions received
- Reach a level
- Daily check-ins (how many days they check in during the quest period)
- Reach a check-in streak (one-time; it fires when their streak hits the target)
- Set the goal amount, say 10 messages.
- Choose the cadence:
- Daily resets at midnight (UTC)
- Weekly resets each week
- One-time is a milestone that never resets
- Set the XP reward, and optionally a role to grant on completion.
- (Optional) Turn on Bonus XP for trusted members. Members with a higher cross-server reputation earn a small extra on top of the reward, up to +25% for the top tier. Everyone still gets the full base reward. Trust only ever adds, it never takes away, and every member can always complete the quest.
You can run several quests at once and turn each one on or off individually.
Member experience
Members see their quests and progress bars with /quests (private) or on the Quests page of their portal. Progress is tracked automatically as they take part, so there's nothing to "accept."
Tips
- Mix cadences. Run a couple of daily quests for routine engagement, a weekly stretch goal, and one-time milestones for newcomers.
- Pair quests with Daily Check-Ins (free module). A weekly "check in 5 days" quest and a one-time "hit a 30-day streak" quest turn the daily click into a habit loop: the check-in advances the quest, the quest pays XP, and the XP levels them up.
- To prevent farming, reward XP doesn't count toward XP-goal quests.
- Pair a one-time "reach Level 5" quest with a role to give new members a clear first goal.
