Broken quest lines are annoying and need to be fixed

TL_Gamer · October 2016

The Army of Meridia quest line is totally broken...(Note I said the quest LINE is broken, bot the quest itself)

The way the game is programmed is that all chain quests and parts of a quest line directly related to the quest you are doing, are denoted with a white quest marker.

The Army of Meridia quest is made up of 3 parts and a sub quest which has something about talk to people you find. The problem here is that there isn't one white quest marker at all anywhere to be found for any part of this.

Rescue Vanus Galerion (Who is supposed to be out east somewhere)
Rescue King Laloriaran Dynar (Who is supposed to be somewhere to the west past the moonless walk shrine.)
Restore the Hollow City.

Furthermore, Saying the king is out west and Vanus is somewhere to the east is absolutely idiotic.
1. Their locations are not marked on the map which means they can be anywhere which could take hours or days to locate either of them, if you do at all
2. Other things that have quest markers over them are not white they are black which means it's not part of the current quest so there is no reason to even bother accepting more quests and overwhelm yourself.
3. Both the king and Vanus are nowhere to be found I've been all over every inch of both eat and west side of Coldharbour and neither one is anywhere to be found.
4. Who exactly are you supposed to be speaking to to send to the Hollow City, Once again there are no white quest markers anywhere to be found so how are you supposed to be talking to anyone you find when it's not denoted on the map where they are and or with white quest markers denoting they're part of this quest.

Either way this is a totally broken quest line and it needs to be fixed..This quest is required to denote all parts of this quest and anything directly related to it as a white quest marker. Even if the white quest marker didn't show up on the map until you got near it is fine...but that doesn't even happen.

Great, another troll thread by this guy. Just what I wanted today.

Seriously. It's not broken.

It's the type of quest that can only be accomplished by doing other quests you find along the way. I'm curious how you even got to the east side to search for Vanus when that doesn't open till you find and rescue the King. No, I'm not really curious... I know how you did it, you ported to a guild or group mate to bypass the mechanic that keeps you only being able to do the west side quests till you find rescue the King.

I feel like you are just here on the forums with no other reason but to cause unnecessary strife. You know how to google. You can't tell me you didn't check up on it first, that instead you came here to complain.

Once you finish Coldharbour you will have a heart attack when you get Cadwell's silver and gold questlines and see none of it has quest markers.

They show map markers, you just walk straight east and west and run right into them. The quests out in the world all bring you into a focal point and lead right into the quests to save those characters.

Hours or days? Listen I understand you can be a little upset that is such an overstatement.

When you take the quest it tell you that your map has been updated and shows you the spots. You just work your way east or west, doing quests for the random peeps until Molag Bals boot. I actually loved ColdHarbor.

After you rescue Vanus and Laloriaran that is restoring the Hollow City.

Not trying to be a jerk or anything, but its not broken, nothing needs fixed, you just need to pause for a min and look at your map, it points you in the right direction. Kind of like the "main story" When good old ghost man would randomly pop in and say "Get you booty to the Harborage Vestige!"

I've long since abandon this quest seeing it cannot be completed without white quest markers for everything involved.

Not sure why Zenimax continually does things like this to their games meaning they will have a system n pace that you get used to using, then out of nowhere and without warning, the system you have been using all this time is now totally changed and actually breaks the games method of playing and being able to structure things together so that getting things finished is possible, instead of just leaving it alone.

Doing this with quest lines would be the exact same thing as THIS EXAMPLE:
researching traits and then on the last trait, make it so you have to go of traipsing though the game up a mountain and getting a RUNE to take to an enchanter so they can teach you the 9th Trait skill...Runes don't have anything to do with traits and why would it all of a sudden be changed with thsi one thing and nothing else for no reason and not lettinga player know.

So just like that example above Why is every quest chain exactly the same having white quest markers for chain quests and things related to quests throughout the entire game, then all of a sudden without warning that's been changed for this quest and for absolutely no reason.

this is what happened when you bring lazy gamers who want the next quest to be placed in front of them in to ESO. They need to look for the next quest...omg the shame! Honestly the quest is not broken i JUST did it for the 6th time.

WHAT PART OF NOT HAVING WHITE QUEST MARKERS ON THE MAP FOR EVERYTHING RELATED TO A QUEST AND CHAIN QUESTS ARE YOU PEOPLE FAILING TO UNDERSTAND......

THERE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE WHITE QUEST MARKERS FOR THIS CHAIN QUEST AND EVERYTHING RELATED TO IT WHICH MAKES FINDING ALL THE OBJECTIVES TO THIS QUEST POSSIBLE.

IF THERE ARE NO WHITE QUEST MARKERS WITH THIS QUEST THEN THE QUEST LINE IS 100% BROKEN

Somehow I get the impression he doesn't come onto these boards to make friends. It's ok, as there's nothing funnier than an adult having a complete meltdown over a game.

ALL OF YOU REPLYING WITH YOUR CRAP COMMENTS ARE COMPLETELY STUPID AND CLEARLY HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CONCEPT ABOUT HOW GAMES WORK OR PRINCIPLES INVOLVED

I can only assume you were off sick the day they were handing out self awareness.

Right...... but its not broken? Isn't that what I said? Lemme look up...... ah yes... "Not trying to be a jerk or anything, but its not broken"

Sorry, work is slow and I just had to reply. Just trying to help you out. The QUEST LINE is not broken. Better?

Plus I put that at the end, so you actually read through everything I wrote... *mic drop*

You are factually wrong. Several people have pointed out the flaw in the statement "THERE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE WHITE QUEST MARKERS FOR THIS CHAIN QUEST AND EVERYTHING RELATED TO IT WHICH MAKES FINDING ALL THE OBJECTIVES TO THIS QUEST POSSIBLE," which is that this quest requires you to figure things out for yourself. Rather than listen, you have dismissed anyone who corrected you. Anyone who doesn't agree with you is automatically wrong, as far as you're concerned. Facts and reasoning that disprove your assertion become attacks.

Your behavior is indefensible, and the patience of those who have tried to help you despite your willful disregard for anything that fails to validate you is very impressive to me. Bravo, everyone who tried to help this guy. You're freakin' saints.

Wrong, the quest line is absolutely 100% broken when I go east or west to find the king and Vanus there are supposed to be white quest markers on the map not only denoting their locations, but also denoting that those locations/things/aspects are part of the chain needed in order to be able to finish this quest.

Every single person replying in this thread has totally 100% ignored that the WHITE QUEST MARKERS REQUIRED to link the quest together (Just like every chain quest in this entire game) are simply not there which makes the quest line broken.

ZoS needs to fix this quest by adding the white quest markers where they're supposed to because this is a CHAIN quest, and every chain quest in the entire game has white quest markers...Every chain quest that is except for this one.

@MasterSpatula

STFU you windbag of a forum troll..Someone like you always fails to accept that you all came into this topic trashing me THEN I said something back, not the other way around as you're are try@MasterSpatula
And learn what help means is meatstick. Because if you think people in here tried helping me, then you're an idiot who needs to go back to school and learn what the definition of HELP@MasterSpatula

All anyone did was post antagonistic replies, and 3/4 of the replies being left by people towards me are against the forum rules.

So get lost with your crap replies.. I am the victim here
