@ZOS_Kevin - just wanted to ask if Ancius Novius was giving quests as expected? I've noticed that if you only take a single quest each day, he always starts with the exact same one. I'm not really complaining - I don't mind the snowball fight, and it's one of the fastest ones to do. It just seems odd that the initial quest he offers wouldn't be randomized (for those who choose not to do all of them each day).

Yes, I am glad that you mentioned this! He only ever gives me the quest to go see the snowball lady and do that one over and over again! I have not been able to do any of the other new quests except for the one where you have to smash the rock that the orc guy gives you. But, I only just happened upon that one by accident while doing the older quest in that area with the food prep, and not because the guy in Eastmarch directed me to go there.

If you keep talking to him after accepting one quest, he will offer you the next without you needing to turn the other(s) in. You can stack all the quests that way. It's just that if you have none active, he will always start with Bruni's snowball fight.

That is completely counter intuitive to how older quests with Breda work! With her you can just cancel out of what she is saying to get a different quest from her. Why would they not make his work the same?

You could just take all the quests and then drop the ones you don't want to do. It accomplishes the same thing and doesn't take any more effort than talking to Breda and canceling if she doesn't give you what you want. The article mentioned they were trying a new quest giving mechanic by allowing you to take them all at once instead of one at a time and returning in between.
