This, the way I'm envisioning it, would require a massive amount of work. Essentially here's what I see:
Example: SK GM in EFP tells you head outside the gates, and kill that pesky priest of marr today - reward: rusty short sword, sharpening stone. Later on the SAME npc tells you: We resurrected her after you killed her, and she's broken free of the undead domination spell. Head out past the gates and kill that pesky undead priest of marr(npc level: 9) tonight - reward: bronze short sword.
If we flag the nighttime quest as requiring completion of the daytime quest, it'll prevent people from just skipping the daytime quests.
I can see this actually working out fairly well as we could then work it something like this: say you do your Temple of Prexus Paladin Class Armor Quest. You finish it up and it's "Crude Breastplate of Prexus". The same NPCs then give you another quest, to collect 'enhancement' drops from the nighttime versions of the first quests' mobs. Upon turning them in, along with your crude piece, you get "Breastplate of Prexus".
Tune the ToP/ToSR armor quests for solo(daytime) rewarding crude. Group(our 3man group version anyway) rewarding 'regular'. Then perhaps, to deal with the problems inherent in instancing the planes(making planar armor harder to come by) we could change the drops to slot appropriate enhancement stones. So, in the Paladin example, fetid fiends(these drop pally fear armor bp on 'live') from fear would drop 'Glowing Valorium Stone' on identify it would say something like 'this stone looks like it could be used to enhance certain armor types'. Take this, plus your Breastplate of Prexus to the ToP and turn in to receive Valorium Breastplate of Prexus. This gives you the planar armor, but its rewarded as an upgrade to the 'group' class armor. Which itself is rewarded as an upgrade to the 'solo' class armor.
Ofc, if we go that route(and I think it'd be the way to go) we'd have to slightly re-envison some epics, the SK epic comes to mind, as it requires darkforge pieces - that could be modified.
