Can I use the gift card to unlock an expired quest I want to do in the future or do I need to be ready to complete the quest when I use the gift card?

35559 Hello. I'm sorry if this question has already been answered. I tried to search and couldn't find anything (but there was a lot to sort through).

Anyway I want to confirm the reward and experience for fighting the rock. Do you get 10 experience and 3 gold for each rock you fight? It seems like a lot of exp. for fighting the first few rocks. I just want to make sure I'm understanding it right.

Thanks!
