I actually have no idea, but i would have to say it must be a Secret world quest because of the games fantastic stories with engaging gameplay.
TSW - AoC - Aion - WOW - EVE - Fallen Earth - Co - Rift - || XNA C# Java Development
Was a level 2 or level 3 quest for greenskins, to assault a stuntie stronghold. You sat in a catapult and got shot across a lake to land on top of a wall, where you then had to kill some dwarves. Made me laugh.
(I dislike questing. 99% of storylines suck and the gameplay isn't unique. I generally prefer quests that lead to dungeons because I like group content, but it's not the quest itself that was good, but the dungeon).
You are posting some laughably bad content, please desist.
I think EQ Epics are in the discussion... a long adventure with great rewards...
I also think most "story arcs" are in there like the class stories from SWTOR, or the Mages Guild from ESO
BUT for pure one shot enjoyment quest... The Loppi-lopp in Wildstar... you have to lick some lolli-lops that make you hallucinate and run around like a madman with all trippy colors and stuff... To this day me and the wife joke about licking the lollylops
Wildstar, in general, had some amazing humor and quests.... to bad the gameplay was subpar.... it could of been a contender.
The Secret World.. most quests are better then any other mmo quests. There are some missions that are so epic in scope that im not sure there are single player games with as good story/mission/quests.

You triggered a Npc war and had to protect the npc dwarfs from waves of gaints.Also, though not strictly an MMO, one of the last quests in the original GW (Before it was called Prophecies). By the time undead Prince Rurick shows up the cheese meter has been pegged so long it's broke, the writers are clearly shoveling in random pages from Tropes, every time you think it can't possibly get more ludicrous it does, and yet somehow it all works.
Or, at least, is enjoyable and memorable, which is more than I can say for 99% of the quests I've ever done.

Part of the quest is triggering a zone wide war.
EQ1, EQ2, SWG, SWTOR, GW, GW2 CoH, CoV, FFXI, WoW, CO, War,TSW and a slew of free trials and beta tests
There was this mission where I had to fly around grey (dangerous) space as part of a covert 'black' operation. I wasn't given very clear instructions on how to proceed except to avoid being scanned or raising suspicion while searching for a way in to national territory, every once in a while receiving "burst crypto" comms from my point of contact.
I just found it to be a very clever piece of narrative storytelling.

There are certain queer times and occasions in this strange mixed affair we call life when a man takes this whole universe for a vast practical joke, though the wit thereof he but dimly discerns, and more than suspects that the joke is at nobody's expense but his own.

WoW Charger questline.
First epic story line in Rift (one ending with killing Greenscale) also was somewhat fun.
DAoC questing as a whole really too.
Wildstar: Eat the mushroom to make yourself very small and squeeze between the rocks to enter a secret cave, then eat another mushroom to grow very big and be able to jump up to a high ledge in the cave. After opening a chest, pull the lever to open a hidden door to find WS characters having a tea party a la Alice in Wonderland.
Vangaurd: Find the crazed farmers and hypnotize them, then lure them away from the farm and into a windmill where you kill them. Then take their body parts and grid them up in the mill. Then add the ground parts to the hay bales to feed to the cows the farmers were raising. This was to avoid the other villagers ever suspecting you played any roll in the farmers going crazy in the first place. Weird mission.
Also, as already mentioned, The Secret World has pretty damn good missions.
Second for me would be dealing with the crazy guy in eso.
