They would be bought from an NPC, still require the same stats and pre req quests. Probably not be able to be used on grandmaster quests and maybe expert level quests. Cost could be based on difficulty of the quest or just a flat price. Seems like it could be a decent GP sink.

It would not be a worthwhile gold sink as it would be finite. If most players chose not to skip quests, it would be an even worse gold sink, and if a large enough majority chose to skip quests it would likely indicate that we should just stop making quests. I'm not a fan of any of those outcomes.

In a similar way to how we do not specifically cater content towards ironman accounts, IMO we should not aim for quests to accommodate non-questers. There is already the option to not engage with content you don't enjoy - simply don't partake. If that is not a palatable solution, there's nothing wrong with using a guide.
