Description of the fields
ID

QuestType
Accepted values: 0, 1, 2 or 3. Their meaning is described in table below.

2 | Quest is enabled (does not auto-complete). |
3 | Quest is a World Quest. |

MinLevel
Minimum level at which a player can get the quest.
MaxLevel
Maximum level at which a player can get the quest.
QuestSortID
This field defines under what category the quest falls in the quest log.
If value > 0 then value is Zone IDs taken from AreaTable.dbc.
if value < 0 then (-value) is quest sort id: (in general profession or class quests. Also see quest_template#RequiredSkillPoints ) Value is ID from QuestSort.dbc

SuggestedGroupNum
Recommended number of players to do the quest together.
LimitTime

This field is a bitmask, you can combine class values. See ChrClasses.dbc
AllowableRaces

Race
These values are 2^ID taken from ChrRaces.dbc
Examples:
0,1791 = All Races
690 (2 + 16 + 32 + 128 + 512) = Horde Quest
1101 (1 + 4 + 8 + 64 + 1024) = Alliance Quest
Mist of Pandaria and all Expansions after:
33555378 (33554432 + 256 + 128 + 32 + 16 + 2 + 512) = Horde
18875469 (16777216 + 2097152 + 1024 + 64 + 8 + 4 + 1) = Alliance
RequiredSkillId

Faction ID for reputation requirement. See Faction.dbc
RequiredMinRepValue

RequiredMaxRepFaction
The Faction ID for the faction that controls the maximum reputation value that the player can have and still get the quest. See Faction.dbc
RequiredMaxRepValue
The maximum reputation value that the player can have with a faction and still get the quest. If the player has more reputation than the value in this field, the quest will not be able to be taken anymore.
PrevQuestId
if value > 0: Contains the previous quest id, that must be completed before this quest can be started.
If value < 0: Contains the parent quest id, that must be active before this quest can be started.
See the examples section for examples.
NextQuestId
If value > 0: Contains the next quest id, if PrevQuestId of that quest is not sufficient.
If value < 0: Contains the sub quest id, if PrevQuestId of that quest is not sufficient. If quest have many alternative next quests (class specific quests lead from single not class specific quest) field PrevQuestId in next quests can used for setting this dependence.
See the examples section for examples.
ExclusiveGroup
if ExclusiveGroup > 0
Allows to define a group of quests of which only one may be chosen and completed. E.g. if from quests 1200, 1201 and 1202 only one should be allowed to be chosen, insert 1200 into ExclusiveGroup of all 3 quests.
if ExclusiveGroup < 0
Allows to define a group of quests of which all must be completed and rewarded to start next quest. E.g. if quest 1000 dependent from one of quests 1200, 1201 and 1202 and all this quests have same negative exclusive group then all this quest must be completed and rewarded before quest 1000 can be started.
Note: All quests that use an ExclusiveGroup must also have entries in pool_template and pool_quest in order for the core to choose one randomly. See the examples section for examples.
RewardNextQuest
(Old field name: NextQuestIdChain)
The quest entry from a creature or gameobject that ends a quest and starts a new one. The result is, that if you end the quest, the new quest instantly appears from the quest giver.
See the examples section for examples.
RewardXPDifficulty
According to the quest_template#Level, the basic experience with index RewardXPDifficulty is taken from QuestXP.dbc.
This field also controls the XP given as the XP is calculated from the value in this field by the following formula. If the quest is repeatable, XP will be given only once. The total XP that a character will receive is also affected by the level difference between the character's level and the quest's level.
The formula for calculating XP from the value in this field:
QuestLevel >= 65: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 6.0
QuestLevel h1. 64: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 4.8
QuestLevel 63: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 3.6
QuestLevel h1. 62: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 2.4
QuestLevel 61: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 1.2
QuestLevel <= 60: XP = RewMoneyMaxLevel / 0.6
RewardMoney
Money earned by completing the quest (if value > 0) or money requirement to complete the quest (if value < 0) .
RewardBonusMoney
The money a character at level 80 would get when they complete this quest.
RewardSpell
Spell that is shown to be casted on quest completion in the quest log. Note that this spell will NOT be casted if quest_template#RewardSpellCast is non-zero. The spell in the other field will be casted instead, in which case the spell here only serves as the visual in the quest log.
NOTE: This field comes straight from the WDB and should not be changed.
RewardSpellCast
Spell that will always be casted at player when completing the quest. This can be learn spell and player learned some spell in result, or buff spell, for example. If this field is non-zero then this spell will ALWAYS be casted and the spell in quest_template#RewardSpell will not.
NOTE: This field comes straight from the WDB and should not be changed.
RewardMailTemplateId
If the quest gives as a reward an item from a possible list of items, the ID here corresponds to the proper loot template in quest_mail_loot_template. According to the rules in that loot template, items "looted" will be sent by mail at the completion of the quest.
RewardMailDelay
How many seconds to wait until the mail is sent to the character that turned in a quest rewarding items from a loot template defined in quest_template#RewardMailTemplateId
RewardHonor
Number of honorable kill honor rewarded for completing this quest.
Example: An example value is 15 for quest 8388: At level 80 an honorable kill is 124 honor worth. Multiply this with 15 and you receive 1860, after the multiplication the value is rounded up. So the honor rewarded at level 80 is 1860 for this quest.
RewardHonorMultiplier
Multiplies quest_template#RewardHonor, so if value is 2, it will give double.
WARNING: If this field is 1 and quest_template#RewardHonor is 0, the quest will reward default honor kill value (124 honor at level 80)
StartItem
Items given by the quest giver at beginning of the quest. Items will be deleted when quest is abandoned.
SourceSpellId
Spell cast on player when quest is started. Can be a buff or a learning spell.

Examples dealing with quests
Always use PrevQuestId before using NextQuestId. NextQuestId is considered optional and to be used only when PrevQuestId is not sufficient
Basic quest
Single, stand-alone quest with no prerequisites
questA
entry = questA PrevQuestId = 0 NextQuestId = 0 ExclusiveGroup = 0 NextQuestInChain = 0
Prequest
When this quest require another quest to be rewarded
questA
Chain of quests
Player get quests in a strict chain that must be completed in a specific order.
Chain of quests with multiple start quests.
Player should only be allowed to complete one of three possible
Chain of quests with multiple start quests.
Player must complete all three initial quests before D becomes available
Quests with split and a child quest
Completing A unlocks B and C that can be done at the same time. They both need to be completed before D becomes available. X is needed to obtain item for C and this quest should only be available if C is active
Multiple quest chains, leading to one final quest
Player may complete (not required to) X, but has to complete all three quest chains before final quest becomes available
Complicated
Player must first complete A, then B to unlock the chain from C to E. Three other quests in a group will also be unlocked, those can be done at the same time. The three grouped quests must all be completed before I becomes available. Completion of E and I is required to obtain the final quest.
Impossible - many quests may unlock many
Player can choose between two alternative chains (Chain A or B, but not both chains). A2 or B2 should unlock C, D and E when complete. When all three complete, F should be unlocked. If player get A3 or B3 after complete F, depends on if chain A or B was chosen
Note:
If player can choose between chain A or B may be determined by faction status (aldor or scryer), using ReqMinRepFaction = 1. Player should not be able to be neutral+1 with both at the same time. This may be the common threshold to obtain aldor or scryer quests (this is unsure). If that is the case, only the unlock of C, D and E after complete A2 or B2 is the impossible part._Note 2: With the Conditions table now every quest chain is possible.''
