do you have to go by an undaunted enclave to "officially" pick up a pledge before running a dungeon?

If you do a dungeon that turns out to be a pledge for that day, can you still get credit for it at an enclave? I.e. keys, etc.

Yes. The pledge is a (daily) quest. You have to pick up the quest first, then fulfill the quest objectives (kill 2-3 particular bosses, always including the last one), then turn the quest in, in that order.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭If you do the Dungeon first, then get the Pledge from the Quest Giver, it won't count, and you'll have to do the Dungeon all over again in order to turn it in.CP2,000 Master Explorer - AvA One Star General - Console Peasant - The Clan

I would say it would be too "exploitable" otherwise. You could "safe" a few of them on twinks and acquire multiple keys a day by cross-sharing those. Defeats the purpose of having us grind equipment slowly.1 -

then maybe put the pledge giver at the beginning of the dungeon?1 -

How do you share a quest with an alt?

✭✭✭✭3 pledges per character per day seems like enough to me. That's a potential of 2-6 keys/character daily, depending upon how strong you and your character are.0 -

You share it with a friend and relog with the alt. Or go to the undaunted and get the quests then never do them, that way you would always have those quests to bring into a group.
There used to be a glitch with the quests in Cyrodiil and the Blue Road Keep capture quest would work for capturing any keep, it was exploited heavily. When you have a group of people it's easy to push quests around so you always have a person who can share it.
I imagine with pledges it would go something like 4 people queue for a random, whatever dungeon it happens to be somebody will drop group and pull in an alt with the pledge quest, then switch back to their main. Rinse and repeat all day long. Keys and XP for days.[DC/NA]0 -

That sounds like way too much work for 2 keys. Considering you can just do those pledge dungeons on those alts too, there is still plenty of ways to get a lot of keys every day. I don't think making the quests shareable would really create a key acquiring exploit.~PC/NA~ Magblade, Tankanist, Healplar, Stamcro, Oakensorc, Healden, Tanknight ~PLUR~0 -

It's more a problem of being able to repeat those two key quests on the same character over and over. The other 13 characters holding quests could all be naked mules.
Also, sharing the pledges with characters under 45 probably added to the reason to make them not shareable.[DC/NA]0 -

Being able to accept the shared pledge quest would have the minimum requirements in place of course, level range etc. But I really still think there is a fairly simple way of making them shareable without also allowing them to be exploited.~PC/NA~ Magblade, Tankanist, Healplar, Stamcro, Oakensorc, Healden, Tanknight ~PLUR~0 -

ok, as I said, they're rather just make life inconvenient but work-around-able, so why do they make it just a pain in the ass?0
