Weekly endeavor: Kill 50 World Bosses

AlnilamE

I just got to 500 mobs today. I was at 18 bosses. Done for the week now.

The 500 enemies one is so easy, though; I got it passively while raiding over the course of two days, but you can easily cheese it within like 15 minutes by grinding Skyreach Catacombs, or farm the post-boss endless waves of skeletons in Volenfell (I think it should count, at least).

500 enemies is good for a weekly but 50 world bosses is quite a commitment.

There are some players who enjoy fighting world bosses, and they might enjoy fighting 50 in a week, but I think most players would find 50 in a week to be difficult.

The only consolation is that a lot of players enjoy sharing the daily quests and doing the full rotation of a zone's dailies each day. With an event spanning two zones going on, and with a lot of players sharing the dailies in order to grind for purple event coffers and the doubled daily reward coffers, it should be fairly easy for them to get this endeavor completed in less than a week-- assuming they don't get one of the other two completed first.

Just a note about Volenfell-- I think the skeletons only appear if someone is doing the quest and activates the orb in the final room. I enjoy soloing Volenfell, and ever since the first time I completed the quest I've never been able to activate the orb and trigger the wave of skeletons. If you're doing it as part of a group, someone in the group will need to be doing the quest.

Ya know...IT"S OKAY not to do every quest every day/week.

It's also okay to point out when a requirement is raised by 75-100% without any commensurate reward increase.

Just gonna throw out there that just because any given person's "normal gameplay" includes killing a lot of NPCs doesn't mean that's everyone's "normal gameplay".

For a lot of people, their normal gameplay might be Cyrodiil and Housing, it might be Crafting Dailies and ToT. There are a bunch of activities in this game that don't include killing NPCs at all that people spend their time doing because that's what they ENJOY doing.

Also, I know people who've already done all the quests in the game. How exactly are they supposed to get kills during questing if they've already completed them all?

i know some people never do those too
so zos need delete tot/craft/quest/pvp for there people?

How in the WORLD did you equate my post pointing out not everyone's gameplay involves killing NPCs as "lol delete X or Y parts of the game"? Where did I ever say to delete any given activity or Endeavors for those activities? I'm genuinely confused as to how this is the argument you settled on...

500 enemies is easy - just do dolmens or other incursions where many mobs spawn and spam AOEs all around place - you can do it in 10-15 minutes.

50 worldbosses is nightmare - stupid, pointless grind.

I could bang it out by sitting in Wayrest Sewers and waiting for The Rat Whisperer to send me enough waves of rats until I have what I need, which I used to do when it was 250, but 500 is far too time-consuming and mindless. If overland were actually fun to do I wouldn't even think about it, but the game is what it is right now. A grind.

It's not that it's necessarily difficult, it's just that if you're going to get it done in a reasonable amount of time, you're probably going to be doing relatively easy, repeatable ones, specifically for the purpose of completing the endeavor, and it will be a mind-numbing, no-fun grind. I'm sure someone out there loves this, but they were probably fine with it when it was 20, too.

I still think that this particular endeavor at this particular time is probably aimed at players doing the Legacy of the Bretons event in High Rock Isle and Galen, and who are sharing the world boss dailies in those two zones so they can farm purple event coffers and double daily reward coffers by having other players share the dailies with them so they can do all of the quests in the rotation each day of the event, in which case they're probably doing 8 to 12 world bosses each day (depending on how the rotation for Galen works. It should take those players only 4, 5, or 6 days to complete this endeavor-- assuming they don't kill 500 enemies before killing 50 world bosses.

Edit: Corrected typo.

I feel like anyone doing that will also be doing the volcanic vent and delve dailies too, which will easily result in them completing the defeat 500 enemies endeavor first.

Yep, that's why I said "assuming they don't" complete that other one first. As it is, it seems unlikely that many players will get the 50 WBs endeavor completed-- but that will be because they get one of the other two completed first, not because they are not able to kill 50 WBs in a week.

Why do you think that though? Does this general increase in the overall amount of work for all endeavors that we've been seeing not comport with the increase for the world boss requirement? It certainly does to me.
