Quests with AP and SP Rewards
Of all the quest rewards, Attribute and Skill Points are some of the most desirable. The tables on this page compile the total AP and SP rewards for all quests. Quest lines are shown only through the last quest in the group that gives AP or SP rewards, to give an idea of the total requirements to receive the AP or SP.
Work times are for newer worlds, i.e. those with 1 hour maximum job duration instead of 2 hours, which is currently every world on the-west.net besides World 1.
Regular Quests
The 3 SP for Introduction should be ignored for any calculation of max SP, which always begins with calculating 1 AP and 3 SP per level. The 3 SP are in place of the 3 SP you would have gotten for level 1.
