Posted by Quail on November 6, 2025, 2:50 am NST

This morning, a new update is appearing over at Quest Log!

There are five new types of quests that may now appear as part of your daily quest rotation in addition to the original options:

Fight in the Battledome
Go Fishing
Play With a Pet
Read to a Pet
Try on an NC Item (no purchase required)

You will still only receive 5 total quests for your Daily Quests, with the optional 6th for Premium subscribers.

Are you happy with the new changes? Did you receive a Neopoint prize not listed or outside the current listed range for Daily Quests? Let us know in the comments!

Also note that after fixing the issues from the past few days, everyone's weekly streak was reset with a new prize from the current weekly pool today.

Do you guys have the new avatar solution ^^ hehe

Trying on a NC wearable does register for me. I've tried with different NC wearables on different pets. Anyone else?

Also, I think it sucks that TNT is now going to try and force some people toe be pay to pay through this new addition/

by negy on November 6, 2025 3:11 AM NST

Read to a pet..... yikes. That's gonna get expensive REAL quick.

by yayme211 on November 6, 2025 3:14 AM NST

Flight in the battledome? Really? After all the nonsense they did to make sure no one ever had to battle for the plot, they want to make it a quest log requirement?

by timbergray on November 6, 2025 3:21 AM NST

Not a fan of the overhaul lol. They fixed what was broken, but some of these are really annoying or expensive, especially that book task. :|

by sir_chicken on November 6, 2025 3:29 AM NST

@negy Where does it say you have to pay for NC to finish this quest? All it says is to go to the Mall and try something on not to buy anything.

by isabellone on November 6, 2025 3:37 AM NST

@negy - yes, it's not another "customise" task, it's literally "try on" at the NC Mall. If you view any wearable item there, as all currently buyable are linked in our guide - click on any of those item profiles then in the Find This Item section click the NC Mall icon to be taken to the item in the Mall. At the Mall, click the "Try On" link in the search or the button labeled that if you click on the item, and then that quest is instantly completed.

by quailbat on November 6, 2025 3:52 AM NST JN Staff

I’m happy with it, yes! At last, more variety 🙌

by usurpagreen on November 6, 2025 4:01 AM NST

I couldn't care less about the quest log at this point, the prizes are all terrible, why would I bother doing it?

by thecrazyoo on November 6, 2025 4:04 AM NST

Im happy, but I wish they would have been more transparent and said “hey we broke it because we were trying to improve it give us a day or two” versus jut nothing for a few days

by eravilan on November 6, 2025 4:05 AM NST

Oh that book one is not going to be good, is it.

Didn't mind whipping through the tasks in five minutes without having to go out of the way to fight battles or read books or whatever.

by infernodragon02 on November 6, 2025 4:09 AM NST

Reading to a pet will be difficult if you're at a point where your reader only has books left that cost millions. Luckily only 5 quests are necessary to complete the event for the day, so hopefully that will help to skip this part.

by josie on November 6, 2025 4:12 AM NST

I like the change, variety is good! Unfortunately I do agree with folks about the book one. Yikes. Fortunately I have a lot of pets, but I REALLY feel for the folks who aren't premium and have pets that have already read a ton of books.

by rain_harmony on November 6, 2025 4:20 AM NST

I don't care about the changes. I am still mad that my weekly streak keeps breaking.

by rochwuk on November 6, 2025 4:23 AM NST

I really dislike the read to a pet one since you can only ever read a book to a pet once. Sure, if you have 20 pets it might not seem like a big deal, but for people who only have a couple of pets and don't want to collect burner pets just to complete daily quests, it's less than ideal, and I could totally see this causing books to inflate at least in the short term.
The battledome one also isn't a great choice imo because even though it's fairly easy to defeat weak opponents with even super cheap gear these days, the BD is just kind of unintuitive, confusing, and hard to get into at first, it feels like a lot when you're first getting into it and don't know how to get started. At least you aren't required to win, just to fight, but generally people don't really love losing and having their pet lose all its HP.

The others are great though, and I'm very happy with the change! I've been wanting some stuff like playing with a pet to be added for a while to add some variety. One of my new quests was the fishing quest, and I was happy to see that you don't need to catch anything, just trying is enough, meaning you don't have to worry about having fished too recently.
Maybe having more people to fish will even prompt them to fix the bug with the fishing vortex that causes 2 of my pets to share the same "timer", meaning I can only fish with one or the other of them in a 24 hour period. I know I'm not the only person with this problem because I saw someone else posting about it the other day.
The NC one is an extremely transparent attempt to draw people into the NC mall to buy more stuff, but I don't really mind it since all you have to do is try something on your pet, not actually buy anything, so it should be pretty easy to do that in just a few clicks and then move on with your day.

by ruruskadoo on November 6, 2025 4:29 AM NST

Read to a pet is a wonderful idea.

Will incentivize consuming books and making restocking at the neopian book store more profitable. it's a win-win-win.

by ungjit on November 6, 2025 4:30 AM NST

Just read to a fresh non-reader pet.

by purslane on November 6, 2025 4:45 AM NST

I already though checking which wheel to spin and how much crap to buy was tedious lol I guess this does make more sense but it's a lot more work

by loupinss on November 6, 2025 4:46 AM NST

Hi. I received my item. Today I got try on item at the NC mall.

by elwinglyre on November 6, 2025 4:57 AM NST

More variety is nice. Makes the dailies less monotonous. If anything they should add more.

by benladesh on November 6, 2025 5:05 AM NST

I really like these additions, especially the Battledome (I really like the Battledome), but the reading one may get difficult for some players. Like someone commented above -- it could get real expensive real quick.

by flarebaroshi on November 6, 2025 5:10 AM NST

To those who think reading to your pet could get expensive.... not for a long time, there are a million books out there. For the buying from the shop quest, I've been buying unread books for my reader and reading them to him over the last year+. He's up to 1,302 books read at this point, and all from buying at a bookstore or from event prizes etc. If you get the reading quest every other day, it would take over 7 years to get that many books read.

by hotshot53 on November 6, 2025 5:24 AM NST

"Try on an NC Item" they can't be any more obvious, right? and it's so buggy

by spongegrundo on November 6, 2025 5:36 AM NST

Also... after some time people will adopt new pets to "reset" the reading quest for cheaper books. This is a mess

by spongegrundo on November 6, 2025 5:40 AM NST

Love it! Change up always good!

by mztina on November 6, 2025 5:46 AM NST

New quests I can't complain about, but the book one sucks

There's only so many cheap books to distribute to my unread pets..

by rainyaas on November 6, 2025 6:01 AM NST

The "Try On" quest does not work for me either. I have tried on numerous items at the NC mall, and the quest still shows as incomplete

by chococat23 on November 6, 2025 6:13 AM NST

Swap out the book quest with like visit healing springs. Almost everyone has read the sub 10k books to all their pets by now.

by pancake on November 6, 2025 6:17 AM NST

The reading one is a no no no no no

by chihiro073 on November 6, 2025 6:22 AM NST

I think the reading will help get rid of a lot of junk…my reader has thousands left but I also have pets that have never seen a book. I’m going to skip the NC try on as much as possible because the mall is so slowwww

by armyfromnothing on November 6, 2025 6:24 AM NST

The book one sounds supremely obnoxious. The rest are fine.

by heraper on November 6, 2025 6:26 AM NST

there are hundreds of books that cost less than the earnings you get for doing the quest log, times however many pets you have-- especially since it will not always be on your list of tasks for the day, i don't see any problem at all with the reading one in the near (and also far) future. i am happy for the variety!!

by ejbrigid on November 6, 2025 6:38 AM NST

All I get is denied access to the Quest Log!

by msstarshine2003 on November 6, 2025 6:42 AM NST

@pancake the healing springs option is a good idea!

by spongegrundo on November 6, 2025 6:43 AM NST

Have others gotten their broken streak prizes yet? I know the post said those were sent out and the weekly prize is replaced with a new one, but I have neither received mine (Frozen Veggie Delight) nor had it changed, it's still the same item I'm just back at square one after using all my streak tickets. Kinda peeved ngl

by ithrilux on November 6, 2025 6:58 AM NST

Not happy with the new quests. I'm not one for the battledome, don't go fishing, and trying on a NC wearable seems so out of the way. I liked the old rotation just fine.

by timer on November 6, 2025 7:02 AM NST

Battledome thing is nonsense. I have always had zero interest in Battling and am not excited about being forced to waste time doing it.

by skywhalepod on November 6, 2025 7:10 AM NST

I refuse to go premium and my reader pet has read over 2300 books. Plus I don't like sending my pets into the battledome.
This could very well be the reason I stop doing the quests at all.

by hilary_duff2010 on November 6, 2025 7:21 AM NST

My pets do not battle, super unhappy about this one and guess I will be forfeiting the weekly streak prize since I will not be participating in this option.

by kimberdigi on November 6, 2025 7:24 AM NST

oh i love these! more interactive

by sabrinu on November 6, 2025 7:25 AM NST

I'm pleased with these changes! I've been hoping for more variety in the QL for a while. If only they had not broken it for several days along the way

by andantena on November 6, 2025 7:27 AM NST

i like most of these, but i feel really weird about the nc mall one. like ik you don't have to buy but it's pretty transparently an attempt to advertise the nc mall in our dailies. which i guess was already the case for anyone who doesn't just do expellibox through direct link, but still feels weird

by xxstarl1ghtxx on November 6, 2025 7:42 AM NST

oh . they ruined the quests... i liked that they were something simple you could check in and do, i've been doing them nearly every day and i end up spending a lot more time on the site doing this. but with this 'update'.... do i even bother?. i'm not a battledome player and it sounds like the books one will get really really expensive and does not work as a daily because it is Not Infinitely Repeatable. so now its just up to chance that you'll probably roll ones you can't do? screwing over your streak and the daily prizes. why.....

by icaronycteris on November 6, 2025 7:45 AM NST

Read to a pet one is gonna cause inflation REAL fast, I really dont like that one. If Trying on a NC item is faster than customizing I don't mind that one lol

by kahikigirl on November 6, 2025 7:45 AM NST

Happy with the new additional quests! (:

by frenchmaiid on November 6, 2025 7:46 AM NST

Finally some variety. Love it

by dan_727 on November 6, 2025 7:49 AM NST

Okay well I'm glad there are new quests but these need to be easily repeatable actions and that's now how reading functions in this game, idek...

by mercy_graves on November 6, 2025 7:50 AM NST

I was displeased enough with site trends to cancel my membership. And apparently now they make you input your password to CANCEL PREMIUM.

by icaronycteris on November 6, 2025 7:57 AM NST

lame

by offensivedave on November 6, 2025 8:04 AM NST

Definitely happy to see more variety in daily quests!

by gingerkid on November 6, 2025 8:09 AM NST

I don't like that the quest log can now have things that I'd rather not do. I was used to the quest log just being a simple thing I could do quickly.
...fortunately I have a lot of junk (including books) in my SDB. I have a double-digit number of pages if I filter my SDB to just books.

by arktus on November 6, 2025 8:19 AM NST

Nothing wrong with them trying to advertise the NC mall. It's what keeps our beloved site alive.

by purslane on November 6, 2025 8:20 AM NST

I'm happy with these! So glad we have more variety finally, and I hope they add more variety in the future.

I do think it would be nice if they had an opt out feature where you could choose one or two tasks you don't want to see. That way if someone has a really specific issue with something, they won't be forced to do something/have to lose their streak when it malfunctions.

I'm personally really happy with the book one because I have a reader pet and I still have hundreds of cheap books to read. There are thousands of books that are accessible and you can really choose any one you want at first, or switch to a new reader pet if you get a duplicate. Even today, books are still just sitting in the main shop waiting to be restocked because there are just too many for inflation to be a major concern.

I haven't seen anyone complain about the fishing one, but I'm actually a little concerned about that one because it has a less than daily time limit, so if someone does all their fishing late in the Neo day and THEN check QL, they might get locked out of doing that task. Not a likely scenario, but I hope TNT can grant credit for such cases!

by maivry on November 6, 2025 8:20 AM NST

I don't mind most of the new tasks, but "read to a pet" is unreasonable and should be removed.

The cost of all books is going to get inflated quickly.
People with well read pets will struggle the most to afford this. For well read pets, the entire reward from all daily quests plus the 20k won't even cover the cost of a single book. Who thought this was a good idea? It's literally punishing you for having a well read pet.

by melanthiabast on November 6, 2025 8:26 AM NST

No neomail, no auto-reward of previous weekly streak item. My streak was reset and I have the same weekly prize (and re-rolling costs 40k because I'd re-reolled once before, so I know it isn't just coincidentally the same item). Kinda disappointed, but maybe it's a slow roll out of fix.... :V

by kiriska on November 6, 2025 8:41 AM NST

@maivry I was able to do the fishing quest even though my pets' fishing timers weren't through yet, all I had to do was reel in the line and get the message about being more patient. It counts as completed regardless of whether you catch anything.

by ruruskadoo on November 6, 2025 8:47 AM NST

Read to a pet... WHY

by mymy_skn on November 6, 2025 8:57 AM NST

Read a book will be problematic in a long run. Hopefully they introduce the change that you can just click "read" your pet the book you have already read and be done with it, instead of buying a new one.

by dakukuu on November 6, 2025 9:01 AM NST

Not a fan of the "read to a pet" (it'll get expensive eventually), and "feed a pet" (won't work If you book your neopets AFTER seeing the quest log, you'll need to un-book them and then wait for them to go hungry to feed them). =w= I like the play with a toy one. Definitely hating the nc component, as not everyone has nc items. In general the "customize a pet" quest is just an hassle for people that have set customs for their pets. Not that tnt will care or listen, though.

by silvia on November 6, 2025 9:11 AM NST

Silvia - There is a try on function in the NC Mall that doesn't require purchasing anything.

by maivry on November 6, 2025 9:15 AM NST

Personally I was upset because they never gave me the prize, I lost all my progress as I only had a few days left, I used both of my save streaks and don't know if they gave them back, and I have to do it all over again for the same prize that I wouldn't have minded switching for a more expensive item but I was going to feed it since its a gourmet item so I guess I'll have to grind for it all over again

by thephantomreader on November 6, 2025 9:27 AM NST

PRO: it's a good thing they added a bit more variety.

CON: The NC thing is just another "give us money!" attempt that leaves a very sour taste in my mouth considering that the site is slowly but obviously becoming P2W. And I fully agree with the reading books / battle an opponent tasks being just plain dumb.

There are so many OTHER things they could have made into daily tasks that wouldn't have bothered anyone, like for example:

* use a toy to play with your pet
* use an instrument to play music with your pet
* visit the healing springs (someone else already said it but +1 to that from me!)
* visit (specific neopian land)
* use the merry-go-round (it's free and doesn't require flash)
* read the news
* vote 1x in the customization spotlight
* use the (super) shop wiz
* visit the gallery of another user
* rate another user's pet (why do we even have that function if noone uses it?!)

..and these are just the ones I could think of off the top of my head.

by isegrimm on November 6, 2025 9:38 AM NST

@isegrimm - please no on the shop wizard. It'll mess with people who have faerie quests. Also, most of the quest require an actionable task, so just visiting a place (land, gallery, news, etc) isn't likely to work. There probably not a good way to record it happening to be registered with the quest log.

by timbergray on November 6, 2025 9:47 AM NST

@timbergray that's not true, it can register visited sites

by spongegrundo on November 6, 2025 10:04 AM NST

Do we know if all the QL prizes were distributed yet, or will that be completed later? I feel like I keep getting missed with these things and want to make sure I follow up if they've finished.

by pawlie_gray on November 6, 2025 10:06 AM NST

not a fan of "read to a pet" and "try on nc item". reading to a pet can get expensive / annoying fast depending on how many pets you have and how well read they are. nc item try on, while technically easy, 1) is annoying because i have to go to the laggy nc mall (literally always loads so slow for me) and 2) just feels like theyre trying to trick people into buying things they wouldn't originally. really hope they reconsider at least those two.

by undeadfox on November 6, 2025 10:12 AM NST

I'm surprised people are so upset about the new tasks. They're all fine (except the NC one, which feels a little predatory but it's easy enough at least).

Read a book? JN has over 600 under 1k NP, and over 1500 Under 5k. Unless you literally have only one pet, you can accomplish this without extra pet slots for the lifetime of the site. You also won't even get it every single day.

Battledome? Go in and lose, visit healing springs after. Done. It's also cheaper than ever to get your pet to 50 if you don't want to get hurt.

by imlostnthought on November 6, 2025 10:29 AM NST

One of my daily prizes isn't listed in the pool - Brightvale Dungeon Security.

I am personally excited for more quest variety. All of these are totally do-able, and I'd prefer any of these over "customize a pet" or "buy 3 items" any day of the week.

by neolodgeism on November 6, 2025 11:09 AM NST

Speaking as someone whose bookworm pet has read 3323 books and whose checklist/wishlist only has 30 priced books from either list left to read (which would cost an estimated 309,406,500 NP to obtain), I am fine with this. Because I can just read a cheap book to one of my other pets.

by mollyscribbles on November 6, 2025 11:14 AM NST

@imlostnthought in the long rung reading books will be a pain, also yes, some people only like to have one or two pets, this activity shouldn't force people into getting more pets just to participate on QL. Not fun

by spongegrundo on November 6, 2025 11:42 AM NST

New Daily Prize!

)

The read a book to your pet feature better be a thing "of the moment". It better be...

by maninshi on November 6, 2025 11:48 AM NST

1) Trying on an NC item is annoying when I have 0 plans to ever use real money for neopets, 2) read a book is going to get really hard when my pets have already read the cheap ones out there, and 3) I hate the battledome and don’t want to deal with healing/feeding my pet.

These new quests take way too much time to do. I would have preferred things like “discard an item”, “grab something from the money tree”, “Put an item in your SBD”, “deposit ___ nps to your bank”, or even “buy a stock at the stock market.” All low effort and don’t require jumping through hoops to complete.

by jbecks on November 6, 2025 11:57 AM NST

Here's an idea everyone...read a book to the pets that aren't the reader, then it wont be expensive?? Unless you only have one pet, its seriously such a non issue???

by lexronomicon on November 6, 2025 12:06 PM NST

i got a "Wind Up Ona" as a daily prize

by raurimc on November 6, 2025 12:10 PM NST

garbage new quests, and congratulations to those who were suggesting for TNT to add new quests to the questlog, now you will suffer as well as every other one of us. trash.

by atylos on November 6, 2025 12:20 PM NST

My weekly streak was not reset with a new prize, but with the old one I was trying to "save my streak" for. I also got no neomail and no prize in my inbox for the failed streak saving I did 3 times (yes, somehow I was able to it on the third day too).

by folarah on November 6, 2025 12:24 PM NST

TNT didn't think it through and chose a bad activity

I would replace reading to your pet with other activities, like giving it a musical instrument or any other activity that isn't limited (unless they remove the book restriction and pets can read the same book an unlimited number of times).

by romy on November 6, 2025 12:34 PM NST

I strongly strongly dislike the addition of the book quest. It would be fine if books could be read more than once, but since they can't this quest option will get more difficult/expensive/limited each time you do it. It does not have longevity and punishes people who have already prioritized reading to their pets. Many people have already read their pets most of the affordable books and you shouldn't be forced to create a "burner pet" or adopt then discard a pound pet just to get your quests done.

The NC mall quest is also icky.

Adding playing with your pet and going fishing are good additions to me. The new quests should have been more along those lines of things that are broadly accessible for everyone.

by larimar on November 6, 2025 12:35 PM NST

happy to have more quest options to hopefully avoid the dreaded "customize" quest. that's the only one I really have a problem with and involves something I don't normally mess with.

by samaanthag on November 6, 2025 1:03 PM NST

I am not the type of put my pets in the battledome (typical girl) but this will incentivize me to learn how to level my pet up so I can finally get some of those battledome avatars because now there's the motivation to get my streak prize. I love dailies.

by samaanthag on November 6, 2025 1:04 PM NST

Read a book is bad and has to go.

by hexen on November 6, 2025 1:05 PM NST

And I agree with lexronomicon. Reading a book is no different than feeding them... to me. Or grooming. Both involve consumale items.

by samaanthag on November 6, 2025 1:11 PM NST

@neolodgeism, dolamant & raurimc - your r88 Premium quest prizes area already included in the Premium Prize list. There are thousands possible for that so we can't include them in a table in the guide.

by quailbat on November 6, 2025 1:17 PM NST JN Staff

Not sure if it's been mentioned, but I got a Rainbow Negg as a Weekly prize, and I don't see it on the list

by morpheusnc on November 6, 2025 1:22 PM NST

The book one is terrible unless they plan to do away with the only-read-once thing. If we can repeat-read books (puffs of smoke or no) that's one thing, but this is bad for long-time players whose book pet has already read a ton. As far as reading to another pet - well, not everyone wants to do that, some people like a "clean slate" or whatever you wanna call it. And there's only so many cheap books (which will inflate now *eyeroll*) to read anyway. I have other thoughts but this is long enough. tl;dr books = bad idea without some changes.

NC is blatant cash-grabbing attempt but whatever. Would be better if the mall wasn't laggy.

Other tasks are good though.

by goldennightfox on November 6, 2025 1:23 PM NST

@samaanthag
The difference between feeding/playing/grooming/etc. and reading is the limit. Books can only be read to each pet ONCE. That doesn't happen with the other activities. Eventually, you're going to run into the issue of your pet(s) needing a book that is pricey.

by gumdrops on November 6, 2025 1:26 PM NST

Of course they add one that involves money/NC

by fantasygirl23 on November 6, 2025 1:43 PM NST

I'm horrified at the addition of having to fight in the battledome !! That's the one thing I never do - not in over 20 years of playing. I think it's incredibly time consuming, and the whole idea of the Quest Log is that you could (until now) finish all the tasks in under 5 minutes.

by savtalinda on November 6, 2025 2:25 PM NST

I'm very happy to have more variety in the quests! I hope they'll add even more in the future.

Personally, I'm glad that they included playing and reading. Customising is still my least favourite, it's something I enjoy doing occasionally, but not every day.

Since it's impossible to make everyone happy no matter what they do... maybe they could include a Re-Roll option next to every quest? That way we can all personalise the experience into whatever we want it to be.

by salfonde on November 6, 2025 2:31 PM NST

Glad there are some new options, but “read to a pet” and “try on NC” are gonna be hella problematic for a lot of people. Did they put NO thought into this???

by goalkeeper50 on November 6, 2025 2:54 PM NST

"Try on NC" is only problematic in the sense of "will the NC Mall actually work properly?" It's the standard "maybe if you look at the cash shop you'll be more inclined to make a purchase" that I've seen on so many free to play games in the past.

by arktus on November 6, 2025 3:22 PM NST

So, to quell some of the fears about reading a book to a pet.

I read a copy of Skeith Inspired Treasure Maps to my Jetsam who has already read it. The quest counted for reading a book to a pet.

You just need a book. Any book.

by ededdeddy12345226 on November 6, 2025 4:07 PM NST

Confirming, about any book working. I read a book to my pet he'd already read - it said he thumbed through a few pages before putting it away, and counted for the quest log.

They must've just changed it. I tried around 3'oclock with 3 different pets (and a Terror Mountain Travel Brochure). The only message I got was "I have read this book already".

by gumdrops on November 6, 2025 5:36 PM NST

They probably changed it because so many people were unhappy with it. Good change.

by timbergray on November 6, 2025 5:41 PM NST

@quailbat - Ah, that makes a lot of sense. I never thought to look at rarity. Thanks for clearing that up.

by neolodgeism on November 6, 2025 6:33 PM NST

i tried it on my pet, and reading her a book that she has already read does count. i'm not a fan of having to navigate to the nc mall. tnt ur shameless

by labardoodle on November 6, 2025 6:35 PM NST

That's really great news that books can be "re-read" basically and not consumed, just for QuestLog.

by lilacia on November 6, 2025 7:07 PM NST

I like the changes.

by nobody on November 6, 2025 7:33 PM NST

they listened! i was getting so bored doing the same thing everyday, happy to see there's more variety now! if only they'd bring back habbi and kq

by anime_collective on November 6, 2025 7:49 PM NST

I'm glad they added variety. But Also more variety I think would be cool, there are so many little things you can do in Neopia that would be neat to reward.

by zmartygirl on November 6, 2025 9:04 PM NST

Awful. I want nothing to do with the battledome, and the book thing is gonna get super expensive real quick, since each book can only be read once, and can't be repeated with the same pet. Not to mention that as a mobile player, the NC Mall try on option is laggy at best.

I'm literally not even gonna bother with the quest log until these are addressed. :/

by reyal on November 6, 2025 10:07 PM NST

I think that read a book don't have to be the book it hasn't read, it might could be a book your pet had read before.

by blue82182001 on November 6, 2025 10:18 PM NST

I read cheap books I get to my all my pets. I have a reading order. So basically all of my pets have read most cheap, common books. I don't like that one AT ALL. Might be better for a while) once I get a new labrat, but that depends on something else that could happen very soon or not in a whiiile. Ugh.

Also, could have at least removed the customize a pet one now that they added more. Takes me too long to do it just for the quest log.

by yekith on November 6, 2025 11:44 PM NST

You don’t have to worry about reading a new book to your pet. I just did one they’ve already read and they “decided to look through a few pages before putting it away”

by spike on November 7, 2025 12:06 AM NST

That happened to me! But when I tried that with another of my pet's, it didn't happen. So I think it's random.

by zabilac on November 7, 2025 12:07 AM NST

I think the "look through a few pages" only happens when it's the first book you read for the day.

by mollyscribbles on November 7, 2025 12:09 AM NST

Fight in the Battledome, Yikes! I'm horrified at the addition of having to fight in the battledome!! That's the one thing I've never done, not in over 15 years of playing. Not Happy!!

by lawcat on November 7, 2025 2:33 AM NST

please don't make it more difficult than it needs to be

by anydarnedthingeez on November 7, 2025 2:40 AM NST

Happy with the changes - have plenty of pets who can have cheap/cheaper books read to them (I have one specific pet I read to for the book awards and has she a long long way to go yet!). Regularly play in the Battledome, so love this inclusion too.

by cabbil_bane on November 7, 2025 3:53 AM NST

Why are the prizes so bad though? They have r101 stamps and books to re-release (or r99s/r98s) that would fill quest log until 2030

by frehaoak on November 7, 2025 5:31 AM NST

The NCmall thing doesn’t even work. I tried a dozen items but nothing registered…..

Why fix what wasn’t broke.

by alltimemarr on November 7, 2025 7:53 AM NST

idk if anyone has tried yet, but it looks like if you try to have a pet read a book, that they've already read, it will still count. This new verbiage popped up for me, something like "x pet flips through book fondly, before putting it back down". I tried to test it again, but the usual "'I have read that book already!' came up.

seems like you can do this once a day, to count as the read a book quest option, and not have to do a NEW book with a pet.

by lazylacey on November 7, 2025 8:33 AM NST

Yeah, NC mall is acting wonky for me too, and it is one of my daily quest tasks... meh

by myriamele on November 7, 2025 10:33 AM NST

The NC Mall one is one of the ones I do as soon as possible, just in case it starts acting up later.

by arktus on November 7, 2025 10:43 AM NST

Battledome, Fishing, and Playing is fine.

Nice to hear they made a workaround for the Book, thank you @lazylavey for mentioning it, but at the same time it now makes it feel pointless to have. Not that I would want probably the original plan which was reading a new book to your Neopet which could get expensive depending on how well read your Neopet is (or/and may increase the number of new Neopets made many who'll likely end up in the Pound). It's a nice idea on paper, but overall I think they should remove it.

Originally I was fine with the NC Mall one... and then for the past few minutes I spent fighting the NC Mall to just try something on. TNT, I get you want to push people toward the NC Mall, but can we opt out of this one? Because I'm not going to buy anything, if there's something in the NC Mall I want I'll get it, trying something on (especially as a quest I'm trying to push through) isn't going to make me want to buy anything else.

If I were to make some suggestions on what quests they can have:

* Play an instrument.
* Add a Collectible Card to your deck.
* Play with your Petpet.
* Add an item to your Gallery.
* Price an item in your Shop.
* Check out some Neopedia articles.

And then there's all the Site Features and Dailies from each Land they could either split up or group together.

by pikachu315111 on November 7, 2025 11:13 AM NST

Came here to say that reading a book my pet already read counted towards the reading quest. See it's already been mentioned but just seconding it so ppl know it wasn't a fluke!

by queenvlinder on November 7, 2025 12:51 PM NST

"Tana333 looks fondly at the book and decides to flip through a few pages before putting it back down."

Also confirming that reading *any* book, even one they've read before counts for the QL.

by gingerkid on November 8, 2025 5:53 AM NST

Love the variety! Also glad to hear they fixed the book issue.

by dragonair23 on November 8, 2025 6:00 AM NST

I definitely do not want add a collectible card or add an item to your gallery to become dailies. No way. Both my gallery and my collectible card deck are complete in terms of items that are obtainable and affordable for me, and I hate having to do things that I have to undo again as a daily quest task. I was already doing that with customization because I'm already happy with my customizations. Having to go and do something and then undo it again is just annoying.

by neolodgeism on November 8, 2025 6:01 AM NST

Plushie Paint Brush is my premium sixth daily prize for fighting in the battledome today

by bostonred on November 8, 2025 8:23 AM NST

Whoops didn't realize the premium one could award random paint brushes!

by bostonred on November 8, 2025 8:24 AM NST

Also confirming "reading" my pet a book they had already read counted toward the quest goal!

by hellokitty1312 on November 8, 2025 9:20 AM NST

Err... n00b question here, but how do I submit a ticket? They *force* me to register with a Zendesk account, otherwise my message won't be sent o_O

Is there any other way to contact them?

by rosi on November 8, 2025 9:22 AM NST

Everyone who is upset about the reading one have no fear, you can read a book your pet has already read. I’m annoyed because they messed up the feed your pet one and now that my pets are all bloated and in the neolodge it doesnt automatically check it off anymore :’(

by angry_croc on November 8, 2025 11:03 AM NST

Are you really able to read your pet a book they already read and it counts? So if my pet goes, "I've already read that book!" it'll still count?

Cause I was planning to adopt a pet from the pound, read it a cheap 1 NP book then repound it. XD

by dracyoola on November 8, 2025 9:25 PM NST

What about giving everybody the option of flipping one quest a day to another quest?

by mrsfrodo1138 on November 8, 2025 11:03 PM NST

Why are people complaining about the book one? So many books you get for free from dailies, everyone is rich now so you can spend 1,000NP to adopt a pet and use that free book to read to it and then pound the same day.

Simple solutions to every day problems

by mzlish on November 9, 2025 10:42 AM NST

I wouldn't mind the battledome one if my pets weren't all stuck volunteering in the neohospital :/ yeah I can submit a ticket but idk I feel like they should've all been booted when the plot was paused

by ckvdprwx on November 9, 2025 4:47 PM NST

@ckvdprwx - I had to refresh and constantly press "finish hospital task" a few times for all my pets to leave, I think for some reason it wouldn't finish everyone at once on my end. Hopefully that is the trick for yours, but oof I remember mine were stuck as well (and it came up because of the recent quest stuff too lol)

Also, is it me or did this change (granted a few days ago now) also mess up the reading for Tales of Dacardia? I noticed for a few days now none of my stuff is going through on the QL, but i'll still get the emails on the site. (But FF works fine)

by beezebeora on November 9, 2025 11:54 PM NST

@beezebeora oh last time I checked (which was a while ago) that button wasn't there and I just. never checked back *facepalm*
it did say I got 40 plot points for the last one but I didn't actually check my balance so idk if I actually got them or not

by ckvdprwx on November 10, 2025 6:39 PM NST

I actually like some of the new quests since I do them daily (Play with a pet since I am still going for the new avatar, Fishing is a daily and I do battle at least once a day) The Read a Book one, however, will end up getting pricey....and the Try a NC item on is just a pain. I only go to the Mall for specific items...and they are usually not clothing. The NCMall was actually down today for a while and I had to wait to get to finish all my quests (I am assuming it's due to the Bday event that officially starts on 11/13).
