* See the developer's [[Announcements - 2011/05 - Lost City of Neftet#Contracts|article]] to read how the Contracts feature works.
'''Contracts''' provide a way track the acquisition and progress of quests. A contract initially takes the form of a written parchment. These parchments can be found in various places in the game such as rewards for quests or as [[Trophies]], but most often they can be purchased from contract brokers and barkeeps who sell them instead of rumors. Contracts help track quests, and sometimes they can lead you to quests. Each new character is given 2 example contracts and an explanation of how to use them.

You can also find assistant NPCs with the contract brokers in each of the four starters towns, they give out experience rewards every time you complete 5 of the starter town [[Contract Broker|broker]]'s contracts.
 
 
As of [[The Quest for Freedom]] event, most quests had their timers reduced to 20 hours. This greatly reduced the usefulness of using contracts to track quest timers. Due to this change, the amount of new contracts being introduced each patch has been reduced as well. However, contracts are still useful for tracking several other quest criteria:
 
* Quests with timers longer than 20 hours ([[Monthly Explorer Society Quests]] for example)
* [[Stipend]] timers
* Kill tasks (contracts track the number of kills needed)
* [[Colosseum Arena]] victories
* [[Legendary Quests]] completed
* [[50-100 Contracts Quest]]s completed
 
There is a maximum number of contracts (100) that a character can have active at one time ([[Fowl Play|previously the max was 50]]). After this number is reached, the character must remove one or more contracts before more can be acquired. There is no penalty for removing and then re-adding a contract.

Contracts provide a way track the acquisition and progress of quests. A contract initially takes the form of a written parchment. These parchments can be found in various places in the game such as rewards for quests or as Trophies, but most often they can be purchased from contract brokers and barkeeps who sell them instead of rumors. Contracts help track quests, and sometimes they can lead you to quests. Each new character is given 2 example contracts and an explanation of how to use them.


You can also find assistant NPCs with the contract brokers in each of the four starters towns, they give out experience rewards every time you complete 5 of the starter town broker's contracts.


As of The Quest for Freedom event, most quests had their timers reduced to 20 hours. This greatly reduced the usefulness of using contracts to track quest timers. Due to this change, the amount of new contracts being introduced each patch has been reduced as well. However, contracts are still useful for tracking several other quest criteria:

There is a maximum number of contracts (100) that a character can have active at one time (previously the max was 50). After this number is reached, the character must remove one or more contracts before more can be acquired. There is no penalty for removing and then re-adding a contract.
