optimal sidequest order in defiance bay for story
Hi, once I got to defiance bay, which triggered act 2 of the game, I started to just walk around, visit any area and point of interests marked on the map and took any quests anyone gave me without trying to solve anything proactively yet or getting into any "restricted areas" such as locked doors etc. Now reading through the sidequests, it seems that a lot of them are connected somehow, ie for quest 1 I need to get into a specific room in bulding A that is yet still locked, but the main char, lets say (a), of that building A gave me another quest previously which might result in giving me access to that locked room without any further issues. However, sometimes I'd need to get out of the city to solve the quest given by (a) or they even direct me back to the very same area where I got quest 1 to another locked door that might get opened once the quest 1 is solved.
Hope I managed to explain somehow 🙈
So my questions are: 1. Is there maybe an optimal order to solve the quests in defiance bay to get the most out of it story-wise while playing "the good guy"? 2. Shall I already visit some of the new areas outside of defiance bay while still working on quests in the city? 4. Which ones are "safe" areas I can visit without triggering any new act or something? 3. Does this quest-connection only impact the bigger sidequests or also the ones marked as "task" on quest journal? 4. Are there time critical quests that I should do right away?
Update: my current main story quest task is the "never far from the queen" one, I met the ghost at the Woedica temple ruin but did not enter the catacombs yet
Thank you :)
