Edna’s Tower Quests (The Witch’s Tower)

Edna’s Quests in Neopets are a fun and quirky feature that allow players to assist Edna, the eccentric witch from the Haunted Woods, in collecting ingredients for her magical spells. While completing these quests can be a bit hit or miss in terms of rewards, they do offer some interesting opportunities, especially for those who are willing to take risks and deal with the unpredictability of her requests.

The Quest

Edna, residing in her slightly run-down Witch’s Tower, struggles with her magic and often requires help gathering ingredients for her latest potions. These ingredients can range from items like candy, clothing, coffee, food, toys, and even magic items. Edna will typically ask for one to three items from various categories, and players are given a time limit (usually between 90 to 180 minutes) to find and return them.

While the quests can be fun and add some mystery, the rewards are often modest. Edna tends to reward you with a small amount of Neopoints (around 100-225 NP) and a spooky food item, which generally has a low value. While the rewards may not be worth a fortune, completing these quests can be satisfying if you’re willing to take the time to gather the items.

Is it Worth It?

Whether or not Edna’s quests are worth your time largely depends on your financial situation in the game. If you have plenty of Neopoints to spare, you may want to take a chance on the quests, especially when the ingredients she requests are affordable. However, if you’re low on NP or the ingredients are too expensive, it might be best to skip the quest and avoid wasting your resources. It’s always a good idea to ask yourself: “Would I be disappointed if the reward isn’t worth it?” If your answer is yes, it’s probably best to pass on the quest.

The Avatar: Edna – Cackle!

There is an avatar associated with Edna’s quests, known as the “Edna – Cackle!” avatar. This avatar is randomly awarded when you complete a three-item Edna quest, though many players report that it’s more likely to be awarded when completing these quests with three items. While the requirements for obtaining this avatar are not fully confirmed, it seems that the best chance of earning it comes from completing the three-item quests.

Bonus Prize

Another fun feature is the possibility of earning a bonus prize. If you complete a quest from Edna, the Brain Tree, and the Esophagor all on the same day, you’ll receive a special bonus prize. This bonus can only be claimed once, so it’s worth planning your day to make sure you complete all three quests in time.

Starting an Edna Quest

To begin a quest, you’ll need to visit Edna’s Tower and accept her request for specific ingredients. You’ll receive a random amount of time (90-180 minutes) to gather the necessary items. During this time, you cannot turn in the items after 12 AM and 1 PM NST, as Edna is unavailable during those hours.

You can complete up to 10 quests a day, but there are some restrictions. For example, you cannot start an Edna quest if your inventory holds 60 or more items. Additionally, you can use the Shop Wizard to find the requested ingredients, which can help speed up the process.

Rewards

Upon successfully completing Edna’s quest, you will receive:

  • Neopoints: Typically, you’ll earn around 100-225 NP.
  • Spooky Food Items: A random spooky food item with a rarity of 82 or lower. These items are often themed and not particularly valuable, but they add to the spooky charm of Edna’s rewards.

Tips for Edna’s Quests

  • Don’t overspend: Many quest helpers suggest not spending more than 1000 NP on any given quest.
  • Watch out for time limits: Missing the deadline will result in a failed quest, so be sure to manage your time wisely.
  • Multiple quests: If you’re aiming to complete 10 quests in a day, plan ahead to get the quests from the Brain Tree, Esophagor, and Edna to claim the bonus prize.

Conclusion

While Edna’s quests might not always offer huge rewards, they provide a unique and entertaining challenge for players willing to take a chance. With the potential for a rare avatar, some small Neopoint earnings, and the occasional spooky food item, it’s up to you to decide if completing these quests is worth the effort. As long as you’re aware of the time constraints and the likelihood of receiving only modest rewards, Edna’s quests can be a fun and sometimes rewarding part of your Neopets adventure!
