Feature Quests
Feature Quests, sometimes referred to as Blue Quests by players, are quests that unlock new features in the game that are not immediately available to the player. They were first added as a separate category with the unique blue icon in patch 3.3.
This page contains a list of most of these quests; details can be found on each quest's own page. A quest may be marked in this category if any quest in its quest chain unlocks content. Main Scenario Quests often also unlock content, but are not counted as Feature Quests. Class Quests, Job Quests, and Role Quests are included, however.
