    I like the Overseer. It takes very little time to do and the rewards are useful. The only thing that would make it better is a more focused tutorial. The help and information is somewhat confusing to find. Most of the information on the system appears to be in the Help section accessed by clicking the "?" in the upper right-hand corner of the tip window. There are several information windows if you follow the links, but it can get confusing and it's easy to miss some of the information. Here are the compiled tips and help in a condensed format with information on where to find them in game.

    3.19 Overseer
    What is Overseer?
    Overseer is an alternate quest system involving iconic characters and events from the world of EverQuest

    As the Overseer, you must gain the loyalty of iconic characters, who join you as Agents, before sending them on Overseer Quests that thread throughout the history of Norrath. Once an Overseer Quest is started, since you aren't undertaking them yourself, you can simply wait until your Agents return, either in glorious success or ruinous failure.

    If your Agents are successful, they return from their adventures with numerous and fabulous rewards for you to choose from. Gain enough of these rewards and your power as the Overseer will grow,
    giving you access to more challenging Overseer Quests and more powerful Agents.

    Who can access Overseer?
    Anyone using a character that is at least level 85 may access Overseer. However, the feature is not available on progression servers until Seeds of Destruction is unlocked. Members may have more Overseer Quests active at one time than Free players.

    How do I access Overseer?
    There are two ways to access Overseer. Via the [EQ Menu] > [Quests] > [Overseer] menu option, or by entering the command /overseer from the Main Chat window or any chat window.

    What are Overseer Quests?
    Overseer Quests are moments in time that have been destabilized by the endless struggle between Order and Discord. As the Overseer, you can sense these moments and may act to restore balance before they are irrevocably distorted. Every day you will receive a new list of Overseer Quests, of moments teetering on the brink Choose carefully when deciding which to start.

    How do I start an Overseer Quest?
    To start an Overseer Quest, you must build a Quest Party of Agents that are well suited to it. Each Overseer Quest is different, and a Quest Party may struggle if they lack the necessary skills to resolve it successfully. These skills are known as Jobs and Traits, and every Agent will bring their own unique combination to a Quest Party they are assigned to.

But be cautious, for Overseer Quests are dangerous and an Agent sent on one can suffer a variety of Incapacitations.
