Contract Board
Contract-board quests are objective templates such as kill timing, survival, positioning, pacing, economy, and target-priority challenges.
Quests
Quest data combines enabled contract-board entries with public NPC quest summaries. Contracts are generated in-engine from authored templates; NPC quests come from dialogue data.

Section titled “Ways To Get Quests”NPCs
