# Assignments

Assignments work similar to Quest, with the large difference that they are **passive**, while Quests require **active** fulfilment of the tasks.

How Assignments work: A Hero can take on a task and will be occupied for a duration. When the task is finished, the Hero returns with rewards (or failure). Assignments check the Stats of a Hero for success, which Players will see before they start the Assignment.

{% hint style="warning" %}
Some Assignments come with a chance for Injury if not successful. The more dangerous the Lore of the Assignment, the higher the chance of Injury - e.g. **Breach the Corrupted Grove** has a high chance, while **Decode the encrypted Ledger** has no chance (*not even a papercut*).

Assignments are posted on a board and are renewed daily. As long as assignments are listed, they can be started (completion is independent of the assignment still being listed).

The board holds **5 Assignments**, and every daily refresh is guaranteed to include:

* **At least one entry-level Assignment** — a single, low stat check that a fresh Hero can pass.
* **At least one Assignment for every Faction that hands them out** — [**Emberclaws**](/pawtato-land/gameplay/the-world/tribes/the-emberclaws.md), [**Flowtails**](/pawtato-land/gameplay/the-world/tribes/the-flowtails.md), [**Sproutkin**](/pawtato-land/gameplay/the-world/tribes/the-sproutkin.md) and the **Temple of Axomamma**. Whichever Faction you are grinding [Reputation](/pawtato-land/gameplay/the-world/reputation.md) for, there is always something on the board for them.

The remaining slots are filled at random, and the board avoids posting the exact same set of Assignments two refreshes in a row.

While a Hero is on an active Assignment, all other actions for this Hero are blocked. The active Assignments are unique per Player, which means only one Hero can complete them.

#### (Bonus) Rewards

Assignments award **Experience**, **Reputation** and **Loot**. Depending on the **Luck** Stat of your Hero, every Assignment has a chance for a rare Bonus Reward upon successful completion.

Various [Miscellaneous Glyphs](/pawtato-land/gameplay/tools/miscellaneous-tools.md) can increase the chance for Bonus Rewards by up to 10% depending on the Type of Assignment and Tier of the Glyph:

* **Glyph of Labour**: Labor Assignments
* **Glyph of Research**: Research Assignments
* **Glyph of Representation:** Expedition Assignments
* **Glyph of Recycling:** Crafting Assignments
* **Glyph of Foresight:** Stealth Assignments
* **Glyph of Blessing:** Endurance Assignments
* **Glyph of Second Wind:** Combat Assignments

{% hint style="info" %}
Glyphs don't lose durability in assignments. Instead the Glyph is locked for 3 days: you can't unequip, sell or transfer it until the lock lapses. The boost itself keeps working the whole time, so the same Glyph can back your next assignment right away. See [Glyphs](/pawtato-land/gameplay/tools.md) for the full list of what locks a Glyph.
