QuestHelp


 * For a comprehensive article on quests, see Quests.

QuestHelp is a feature designed to help players overcome problems encounters during quests. It was introduced on the RuneScape website on 10 May 2006. The QuestHelp system offers help according to the current position of the player within a quest.

After a player logs in onto QuestHelp, an interface will appear showing the player's active (incomplete) quests and the number of completed quests. After selecting a quest, the system will provide a list of possible problems that may be encountered during the quest. To proceed, the player has to select a problem and they will be given a hint for the particular problem.

QuestHelp points
Each player has 4 QuestHelp points, which will be reset in 24 hours. Using these points, players can unlock:


 * Hints - cost 1 point each. Unlocked by clicking "Reveal Hint" on the parchment.
 * Spoilers - cost 2 points each. Unlocked by clicking "Reveal Spoiler" on the parchment.

Hints are generally messages that point a player towards solving a problem within the quest, not the solution to the problem itself. Meanwhile, spoilers are solutions to the problem and usually dictates what the player has to do in order to progress further in the quest. (Note: In order to unlock spoilers for the first time, hints need to unlocked first.)

However, for the QuestHelp system to accurately determine a player's progress in a quest, they must log out before using the QuestHelp system. This is similar to how the hiscores work, where the hiscores are not updated until the player logs out of the RuneScape game.
