Jobs are a form of repeatable daily quests that involve finding and collecting various items for mob collectors e.g. rare spell components for alchemists. Items can be virtually anywhere and are sometimes difficult to find. To complete jobs it is helpful to have good knowledge of where various items load across the mud, as well as knowing scryer spells like locate object.

Added in June 2013, jobs are still a relevantly new and experimental feature of alter aeon and may be subject to change over they coming months.


Timeout

Once a job for a mob is completed it can not be completed again for 8 hours.

A new leaderboard, 16, was added to track which players have completed the most random jobs. It is still relatively easy to gain a spot on the top 50.
