Missions

Players are given missions to complete that will reward them with XP upon doing so. Players get two unique daily mission that award 2,000 XP each, and three weekly mission that award a much larger amount. Weekly missions are organized in sets within an act. A set is reset at the start of a new act. Once a player has completed a specific week's weekly missions, they cannot receive more until a new week begins. If a player completes all three of a specific week's missions after that week has passed, they will immediately unlock the next three missions for the next week.
