I don't mind that approach at all. "Sorry Mr. Harrek, sez here this is an intermediary level heroquest, I'm afraid demi-gods aren't allowed...urrrk." Thud.

But then this asks the further question are there HQs that people can't do because they're too easy for them or do they just not get any benefits from them or just the bare minimum?

So a quest should be set up as flexible enough for multiple paths, multiple levels on some or all paths and multiple rewards depending on your path and/or level. They're starting to sound like one of the more convulted flow charts.
