Exact Quest Starting Locations

Server-specific correction: This server uses the Renewal map name prt_cas. The active duplicate NPC in the supplied server script is located at prt_cas (207,165), not at the older prt_castle (83,67) location shown by some external databases.

Use the navigation command shown for each quest. If your client does not support navigation, travel to the stated map and check the listed coordinates.
