Help another player with quest
Tobiz
✭✭✭
How is it done?
I want to help my mother with a particularily tough quest in the main quest chain.
Shes talking about skeletons, and Im guessing its Mannimarco.
I cant figure out how I can get to her once shes in the quest, if I travel to her it says "Cannot travel to player at this time" or something similar.
Anyone have any tips on how to help others with quests that are in different phases/zones then where you are at?
For an MMO I find this part very lacking in explanation.

Attention Zenimax: Stamina builds don't hold up to magicka builds, and this is causing most of your class imbalance. It makes melee weapons and bows weaker than staves and class abilities. It makes medium and heavy armor less desirable than light armor. Fix this imbalance, and you'll address most of your balance issues.

Cabot✭✭✭if it is the skeletons in the cold harbor/manimarco battle, (rescuing Ebner Thon) she has to solo it.
Best you can do, (if you confirm it is that quest) is remind her that simply blocking the skeleton magic attacks will reflect them back to the skeletons and destroy them.1 -
Aballister✭✭✭Sorry to say, but that's a solo instance, there really should be an option to be able to help out, some builds have real trouble getting through the main story.Dark Elf Sorc(AD)0 -
Tobiz✭✭✭That might actually help her!
Thank you, I did not recall this!
Though i really would prefer an answer to how I can help her questing in general, just for the sake of helping her.
The l2p part I deal with while we quest in most games, except we dont quest together in this one...Attention Zenimax: Stamina builds don't hold up to magicka builds, and this is causing most of your class imbalance.

Basically you can't in many/most cases, sorry to say.Though i really would prefer an answer to how I can help her questing in general, just for the sake of helping her.
ZOS have decided to create a Main Story in an MMO that CAN'T be done in a group, period. Also,. due to phasing many times you'll not be able to help out on an overworld or dungeon quest.
As for your mother's 'skeletons', @cabot may have helped on that one.
If it is that fight you can let your NPC helper deal with some of them. One tip on this is once you have killed off the ones that come for you, take time to heal and regen magicka while the NPC keeps the skeletons alive (the NPC is pretty rugged and I doubt will die to the bones), this'll mean you're topped up when the next wave comes after you kill the remaining skeleton.
In general, NPCs that come on these trips can act as meat shields to some extent to buy you time to recover during the fights.Edited by KerinKor on June 3, 2014 2:14PM0
