# How Quests Work

# How Quests Work

Quests are one-time tasks — social and on-chain — that pay fixed PP rewards. The quest board changes over time as new campaigns launch, so this page explains the system; the live board shows what's available right now.

## Quest types

| Category     | Platform        | Examples                                                                          | Verified by                                                 |
| ------------ | --------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Social**   | X (Twitter)     | Follow, repost a campaign post                                                    | Your linked X account (OAuth)                               |
| **Social**   | Discord         | Join the DustSwap Discord                                                         | Your linked Discord account + server membership check       |
| **On-chain** | DustSwap / Base | First sweep, sweep 10+ tokens in one go, sweep \$100+ of value, complete 5 sweeps | Your verified app activity — progress updates automatically |

The exact quests, their rewards, and their durations are managed by the DustSwap team and can change at any time — treat the in-app board as the source of truth.

## The quest lifecycle

    A[Open quest board] --> B{Quest type}
    B -- social --> C[Link X or Discord\none-time setup]
    C --> D[Do the task\nfollow / repost / join]
    D --> E[Verify\nchecked via the linked account]
    B -- on-chain --> F[Do the activity in-app\nprogress tracks automatically]

    E --> G[Claim PP reward\nonce per quest]
```

1. **Open the quest board** (`Quests` in the navigation) — each card shows the task, the PP reward, and its status.
2. **Social quests** need a one-time account link first — see [Linking X & Discord](social-quests.md).
3. **Do the task**, then hit **Verify** — DustSwap checks the result through the linked account or your recorded activity, never screenshots.
4. **Claim.** Verified quests credit their PP once. Completed quests stay visible as done.

## Reward rules

* Each quest pays its listed PP amount **once per account**.
* Quest rewards are fixed amounts — the streak boost does not apply.
* On-chain quest progress (e.g. "sweep 10 tokens") counts verified app activity automatically; no manual submission.

> **User Safety Note**
> Quests never require sending funds, token approvals, or wallet signatures — verification happens through linked social accounts or your existing app activity. Any "quest" asking you to transfer tokens or sign unusual messages is not from DustSwap.

## FAQ

**I did the task but verification fails.**
For X/Discord: confirm the *linked* account is the one that did the task, then retry — platform APIs can lag a few minutes. For on-chain quests: the qualifying action must be done through the DustSwap app.

**Can I redo a quest for more PP?**
No — quests are one-time per account.

**A quest disappeared before I claimed it.**
Quests can expire or be replaced by the team. Claim promptly once verified.

**Do I need both X and Discord linked?**
Only for quests on that platform. On-chain quests need no links at all.
