Change to guild dailies?

smacx250 · October 2017

Until recently, on a given day I would be able to turn in the completed guild daily (completed on the previous day), get today's daily, and then complete it (but not turn it in). Then the next day I'd repeat. However, now it seems that I can't turn in yesterday's daily and immediatly pick up today's, which is a real chore if I must pick up, complete, and turn in in one day, and do that again the next (2x the number of visits to the guild daily location).

Have other's seen this? Not sure if I'm just out of sync since the new patch on Monday, or if this is a new thing or not...

Yes, its changed since CWC patch.

As far as we (a few players from the german section) have been able to test yet, all guild-dailies (pledges still need to be tested) as well as the vardenfell dailies are affected.

There hasn't been a note on this change and it remains unclear wether its a bug or a feature (if its an uncommunitated all new and exiting feature, "dailies" need to be rephrased/reexplained bc currently you are not able to pick up one quest every day (edit: limitaion was shifted from handout one repeatable quest per day to hand-in one repeatable quest per day)).

Thanks for the confirmation - purposeful or not, I hope they change it back to how it's been for "forever".

I will add to this as I submitted a bug report for a similar issue and got 4 different people saying 4 different things...

Guild Daily quests are currently sharable. They were sharable. However now you can only turn in one per day - no one in a group can get another.

See the following scenario using the Mage's Guild daily "Madness" quests:

Before CWC:

1. Group of 10 assembles.
2. First group-mate gets a quest from the Mages Guild: "Madness in Greenshade" and shares it.
3. Group of 10 goes into public dungeon and complete quest.
4. Group of 10 return to guild hall and turn in quest.
5. Second group-mate gets a quest from the Mages Guild: "Madness in Grahtwood" and share it. (Not everyone can do it, some people had "Madness in Greenshade" as their Mages daily ... but many in the group typically can get a new one.)
6. <repeat process until no one else in the group can pick one>

After CWC:
1. Group of 10 assembles.
2. First group-mate gets a quest from the Mages Guild: "Madness in Greenshade" and shares it.
3. Group of 10 goes into public dungeon and complete quest.
4. Group of 10 return to guild hall and turn in quest.
5. No one else in the group has the option to pull a quest. Even after disbanding, no one in said group can access the quest.

I got conflicting reports from support on if CWC's intent was to force "one daily per one character"... so here I am to post it as a bug - hopefully someone at ZOS can reply and confirm one or the other... bug fix in the works or this is intended and now we have to abandon an event of doing those dailies.

Why would even they do this? Do they have to ruin everything? Do they smoke a cigarette after

the player base that has stayed with them?

Zo$ plz change this back, plzzzz.

I haven't experienced it yet myself due to leveling up new characters during the Witches Festival, however this is very concerning because this probably also affects Wrothgar WB runs. I hope this is a bug and not intentional because it's difficult to continue leveling after a certain point and necessary to use large groups to farm the dailies if you're primarily PvE. I would appreciate it if the Devs would speak up and say if this is intentional and the reason for it - otherwise, put this bug on the top of the list to investigate and resolve please!

I am on console so I haven't experienced this but it sounds like a bad, unannounced change if it's not a bug.

Shawn_PT · October 2017

Interesting. I was thinking it was way too big a coincidence for me to always drop the exact same daily quest on every single character, on every source of dailies. I hope it gets fixed soon. Otherwise doing dailies will became a true chore. Particularly the Morkul stronghold one. Nobody wants to ride all the way up there twice in a day to just get a ruby ash bow of frost.

Any word yet? Will someone plz confirm that Zo$ hates us or not?

I'm guessing it does because you can't do Tribune's Folly and the Arena the same day any longer.

AlnilamE · October 2017

We noticed this in our guild as well.

I would suggest we all submit bug reports for this.

There is no downside for letting people group up and pick dailies in succession if they wish to do so.

I noticed something was off, but couldn't figure it out. Happened with a crafting daily as well. This is a bummer because I was basically doing them twice every other day. But stepping back and taking a look at the what I was doing as well as the discretions here, you could argue that it was a bug when people could do dailies more than once a day.

Agreed. Didn't think about the group-shares-dailies situation as well.

Yet, as far as I remember this: you-can-share-your quests and do all of it with your friends was part of the "we want to promote group-play"-activities campaign (together with: more xp, better loot etc etc when grouped). I don't think DEVs haven't been aware that groups will hand in more then one dailie at the time dailies entered the game.

@ZOS_JessicaFolsom @ZOS_GinaBruno any chance of a comment on these recent unannounced changes?

Couldn't they just fix that aspect of it? This is a stupid change that I am not on board with. I don't abuse the group daily thing but its nice for me when I cant get on for more than 10 mins so I can at least grab my crafting dailies and not miss a day of my crafting. Hopefully they will not change it on consoles and fix this issue for PC players just make it to where you can only turn in one daily or two dailies yesterdays and todays on any given day.

How is there still no word on whether or not this is an intended change or a bug?

Yes I thought of the Wrothgar, gold coast and Morrowind daily world boss quests myself.
Don't do them much myself but they are popular: Orge can share quest: +orge, +orge, +***.
Good luck farming these bosses if this is true.
Has been some discussions about power leveling undaunted the same way, but not heard it in zone.
