Quest Completion via Crown Store

majulook · July 2019

So I have done all the Quests (for all PVE Zones) on a few characters. When will I be able to just purchase them for Alts?

Why actually play the game instead of just purchasing completion for Alts?

I'm guessing this is probably made in jest/sarcasm.

But in all seriousness
.......

Don't give them ideas.

It is a little crazy how much power you can just buy in the crown store on a new character that everone ignores because you've done it once on another character.

But at least they are making the cost high to justify still doing them in the game.

OP forgot the /s

I mean you already did play the game if you did all the quests.

What you are advocating for is playing the game multiple times.

Why do you care if someone buys quest completion anyway? You trying to flex on people with how many quests you have done?

I'll pay 10k $ to unlock every achievement in the game and never having to play again.

Deal?

If you ask me, buying quests, skill lines or skyshards creates the wrong incentives. It negates redoing all the content and encourages a race to end-game. Add the sour taste left by the knowledge that ZOS are the ones in complete control of how grindy the game is, and how much it costs to bypass the grind.

Not my call, but I wouldn't have chosen this course of action.

Are you crazy? How would they sell experience scrolls then

Probably because with the lag their new players can't complete anything. Who knows why they are adding short cuts.

They do this with any decent game eventually by making crybaby friendly.

U24: Once you have completed quests and earned titles on one character, you will be able to purchase them on your other characters through the Crown Store. You can further purchase crowns to make the game play itself.

BrooksP · July 2019

The true endgame of ESO is paying not to play. Two birds with one stone for ZOS, gain revenue and improve server performance by having less players. A win-win.

Just login, stay on character select screen with your 14 alts and keep spinning them till they do the animation then log, no point in playing them anyways.

Ufretin · July 2019

Eso is still play to win, sadly.
Take Emperor achievement, Master Angler, Black Market Mogul and others. Do you have any idea for how many hours I had to play to get those?
Why are they still locked behind a play wall?

I just want to hang out at Belkarth wayshrine all night long and show off my titles and radiant apex mounts, not play some video game...

A fool and their money is soon parted, yes?

Clearly ZOS thinks we're fools.

IMO the two options should have been
1. Leave it as it, make people grind out each character
2. Make certain achievements/quest lines etc account bound after one character does it. Leave the quests open for people to do over again if they want, they will just earn gold or some other reward instead.

Playing BDO and going on their forums, people are non-stop complaining about how that game is monetized, yet ESO is a far worse offender and people encourage or defend it.

TheShadowScout · July 2019

People kept whining.
They kept whining about wanting all the stuff account-wide...

ZOS listens.

And now they will offer just that... at a price. Look to riding training and skyshards as to how costly this is likely going to be.
As was obvious from the start.

Wanna blame someone?
Look at all the old threads, and blame those who kept crying for more account wide stuff.

But hey!
You don't have to pay a single crown on those things.
I know I won't.
Why pay for what I can have fun leisurely playing for after all?

shaielzafine · July 2019

Just give us instant level 50 boosts and wayshrine unlock packs at this point, honestly. They would go along with the skyshards and skill lines packs. I mean seriously.

So I guess that means you can get an easy emperor in the <lvl50 campaign by paying for access to Dawnbreaker/Meteor at level 10.

Note, if you do nothing but kill undead in ESO, you'll reach lvl50 before Fighter's Guild rank 10. Meteor was already accessible at lvl10 in theory, but in practice you would never actually have it, because of the vast amount of travel and self-defense you'd need to do on the way. It's probably not as huge of a deal in the end, but just the sound of that makes me cringe. If that's not pay to win, then nothing is.
After all, in a balanced game, no unlock can ever be pay2win /s. Yeah, to some people the red line is only crossed once it becomes "impossible to lose".

I'm not sure where you are taking this information from, and if you are talking about personal experience you did something real wrong cause you can already grind up dawnbreaker and meteor in pre 50 pvp.

This is giving you the opportunity to be a try-hard with money. Either you nolife it and grind out mages guild for meteor on your level 15 dude or your buy it, how is that different?

You still are a scumbag either way.
