We are currently investigating connection issues some players are having on the European megaservers. We will update as new information becomes available.

Should they add a Daily Activity Panel?

I wish they would add a Daily Activity Panel which would show every daily quest and activity (such as crafting) in all zones so I could work my way through them. It would let me know what I have and haven't done. it would just be much easier to keep track of them. It would also give a sense of achievement as I work my way through each one. They could also add some new ones in there too.

It would also help newer players who are unaware of where all of the daily quests are.

They also need to think about the rewards they offer for some of the quests (fighters and mages guild for example) to make it seem more worthwhile.

    Depends

    I think this would be useful in refreshing old content if people could group up for old dalies ot even new ones.

    I would like this idea, it is very useful to see all dailies in a glance. But I would like it to be togglable, I don't like a lot of text and clutter on my screen. Maybe let it be optional in the screen or something.

    It would also be cool if you could check/uncheck the zones or kind (quests, undaunted, crafting) in a menu, so you can track the ones you want/need.

    I'm not averse to it, assuming it was toggleable, but I don't really see the point of it and I think it would swamp new players who should find these things for themselves over time as they explore each zone. We need to move away from the instant information and hand-holding that are just ways of dumbing down MMOs.

    My feelings exactly. Not to mention.... do you know how HUGE such a panel would be? Good grief.... Even if you made each zone collapse and expand separate from others, it would still be a mess. I mean, I already find the UI in this game pretty bad - but at least you can manage some of it with addons....

    The panel would not be on the screen all the time. I agree that would look way too cluttered. It would simply open up, and you could close it once you had chosen what quest you want to do.

    My point about huge is that it would take forever to find something you wanted....

    It it was designed well there wouldn't be any issues regarding that.

    Right. I can't conceive of ZOS being able to design it that well consider the "vanilla UI". But you know, it might be a really good idea for an addon....

    Have faith. It would actually be pretty easy to make a good UX/UI for this. This coming from a web designer.

    First, it would be nice if the poll had an "OTHER" option since I am indifferent but could have something to day (which will be after the quote below). As it is there is not an answer for me.

    Much of the dailies become obsolete over time as players move onto other things. After all, once we finish collecting the motif and/or the price of it drops there is little reason for us to continue doing them until an event makes it more worthwhile. We cannot have events every week as we grow tired of them over time.

    Further, we can do many of the dailies multiple times a day as it is. Johnny got the Kill ABC boss and shared it with his friends. After they all turned it in Janice got the Kill XYZ boss and shared it with the same group. After the completed that quest Bruce got the kill MNO boss and once again shared it with the group.

    How do you measure that or would Zos want to ignore it all together.

    Beyond that, I would prefer Zos to spend their efforts fixing major issues with existing systems before attempting to add something new. Maybe in the meantime Addon devs can put together something that will do the same and give Zos actual ideas. That is if the info is available via the API.

    They could enhance the rewards given for players who have completed their motif collections. But saying that, you can always sell the motifs you already have, so it isn't exactly a fruitless task. But I agree, the rewards need to be enhanced. Keep in mind there are a lot of people who haven't collected the motifs yet though.

    "Further, we can do many of the dailies multiple times a day as it is. Johnny got the Kill ABC boss and shared it with his friends.

    They would simply list each quest in the activity panel and you would ask in zone chat for the quest you don't have like you normally do to complete them. Simple.
