So an "ordinary", annual LBQ is not a God's World HQ. What about the ones Argrath and Harmast did?

Is it any help here to look at this in terms of depth of quest vs. scale of effect? As in, say, versions of quests that make something magically true for me and my supporters (look ma, new Sunspear feat), versions that make it true in the mesocosm (we don't worship Elmal here, stranger, just Yelmalio) and ones that make it true in the macrocosm (Elmal, who he?).

To be more precise, they were always pretty useless, now they're just explicitly redundant. ;-)
