I did the 30,000 quest but wonder if anyone was doing the 50,000 sure did not look like much of a reward for doing that many

50k is easy, you dont even need to fo most lifeskill quests and "off road" quests from main story lines, just do all yellow quests you encounter while doing main quests. You only need like ~15 characters to get 50k that way.

On the other hand, there is plenty of people with 100k.

I'm still getting to the 30k, but I'm definitely doing the 50k and 100k after that.

does not know what he talking about repeat quest do not count and that yellow quest so it all story line quest that count there are other but not that many and yest you need a lot of different toons to get it done

there is lots of "chain" lifeskill quests and tons of lifeskill quests that require you to be at specific level to do them - for 50k only you don't really need  them, because they take extra long time to open and simple to do them.

You just do main quests and easy to access yellow quests while doing main story - no need to go on magnus and other long "adventures",  and then switch to other character. You can pull like ~2,5k quest from a single character like that. Its pretty much easy way to get 50k quests, downside of that is  - you'll have to go back and do other hard to access quests if you decide to do 100k quests, because there  is simple not enough easy to access quests to hit 100k quests.

Or you can do alll quests on character with all hidden chain quests and all lifeskill quests - its gonna take extra long per character but you wont have to go back to that character anymore.

As you mention in first post - there is no real reward for 50k and 100k quests, so its very much up to you do choose how you wanna get to 50k.

I'm at 15k quesrs now and didn't even think abot 30k until I could open up final life-skills quest by hitting Guru level one at least in  6 lifeskills.

A good majority of the lifeskill quests and chains are super quick if you have the resources stockpiled or they are available on the MP.

I think total overall on my lifeskill xharacter ( Shai) I managed to open up about 500 more quests having Guru cooking, hunting, processing, fishing, and gathering.
