Area boss reward is terrible

Slaying area boss is enjoyable, especially with other class type players.

But despite of huge consumption of potion and time, area boss reward is unreasonably cheap.
My bank space is full of "junk items" of boss reward. It's so disgusting.

ZOS should put the gold quality crafting material at the area boss reward.

    If they spawned once per day, maybe. But if they spawn every five minutes, nope.

    Also, if you have other players with you and you are still spending a lot of potions and time, maybe you need to learn the ropes of the game a bit more.

    I usually get something somewhat exciting from World Bosses when I do them?

    My first thought is they're talking about area questline boss - which indeed usually has crap reward, but is also super easy to kill. If they mean world ones, in DLC zones they usually have some sort of daily quest tied to them that can award you motif pages, plus some WB have antiquity leads tied to them so I would say it's not bad at all. Something that can be done with any number of people infinitely cannot possibly reward something too good or this 'too good' will soon cost 1g tops.

    It could also mean public dungeon boss. Only time, and OP, will tell.

    Above all, World Bosses should have an achievement. Can't believe that you get no title, trophy, furnishing, absolutely nothing for clearing all WBs in Tamriel.

    I soloed the Lurcher and Strangler duo in Reaper's March today and it was like 3mins fight and I used only one pot. Are you trying to kill them as tank/healer/low CP char?

    It really surprised me there was nothing for killing all the world bosses in the base game. Like even just an achievement would have been nice.

    Overland world bosses has an chance for dropping weapon in set. If you farm in an zone with an popular set this can be profitable.

    +90% of content you can use single stat dropped potions or the daily reward 3 stats. Crafted potions is for vet dlc dungeons, vet trials or then you need the little extra.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Guild wars 2 does it right. It encorages you to complete a map so that you get cool rewards in the end. ESO offers no motivation unless people are doing dailies to complete sticker book which is mostly happening in newer zones world bosses

    Beat all the World Bosses in the original game on 2 characters. A MagSorc and a StamDK are quite different so I had to try them both. I have another who could do this now, and maybe a fourth in the pipe.

    It never occurred to me I should get a cheevo for this. It is kinda its own reward. Back then you did not get the constant drip of achievements for doing anything at all, and I liked that better.

    >>Overland world bosses has an chance for dropping weapon in set

    I knew it. But I can't use light and medium armor set. So usually I sell it at the guild shop.
    But I got too much of useless cloth for me, so my bank space became almost junk shop (/.\):

    Just deconstruct gear you don't need. No reason to put it in your bank.

    If its part of an set item ask in guild chat if some want for sticker book unless it sell well.
    Better if they have an guild bank for stuff like this.

    Make sure you have collected those off items so you can make them later on with the Sticker Book Thing
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    What they need are dailies in each zone for the WB's. We have one for random delves and public dungeons (Undaunted and Mage's Guild) but nothing for world bosses.

    Also, it would be cool to have a Thieves' Guild and Dark Brotherhood daily in each outlaw refuge, with objectives unique to each zone, accessible once you reach max level in those two. Right now outlaw refuges are kinda pointless.

    I have been making a killing selling random overland gear. Get yourself a bunch of small trading guilds and just list it all.

    If they made WB's a daily, it should be some kind of overpowered boss that takes a raid or zerg to take down. More powerful than dragons, with better rewards. Put it on a timer (pref) or some kind of player initiated trigger; with sufficient rewards it should draw a significant crowd.
