Truly wretched set of Daily Endeavors for August 4

Gambino108 · August 4

I hope this is a joke. This couldn't be any more simpler to do. It's a maximum 15 minutes of your time.

Are we at the stage now where even 15 minutes of optional gameplay for an optional reward system is too much to ask?

People won't be happy until the day comes where they can log in and claim all available rewards in the game with a single button, and never have to actually play the game.

It's impossible to complete!

..because the login server is down.

no one is saying that collecting plants is hard. i would have thought the damage pvp one would be passively completed while getting my event tickets, but it seems to be broken. killed mobs in both ic and cyro and not a single point went towards it. someone else here said they did siege engines and it wouldn't work either.

Yeah, really bad. I didn't bother with anything except collecting plants.

But this actually needs a player to be able to login to the game, which more and more frequently you can't...

Yep, whole day maintenance, and when finally server is up, you can't log in.
But it's just a "few minutes"...

Just

at "you can do trial in less than 10 min".

You have to damage players. That's why it says "Deal 200000 Damage in Battlegrounds..."

I'm not a massive fan of IA or PVP'ing and I don't do Trials, but I'm not going to lose any sleep over 15 seals. Plants is easy and Black Sacraments are annoying, but something I can access. Can't bat a thousand every day, I guess.

Some of the Endeavors suck lately. Iron atronachs is one example. They are not found many places that I know about.

I don't do PVP or trials and never did the infinite waste of time either.

They should be able to see if people do specific Endeavors and stop putting them in!

La_Croft · August 4

It's ok, they killed the servers for you so you don't have to do them. xD

They're on a constant rotation in the volcanic vents in High Isle, Amenos and Galen.

Nothing wrong with the endeavors of today... players who only do questing and nothing else should stop complaining.

Dojohoda · August 4

Hopefully, once the servers let me login, I can see whether or not I have time to do this stuff.

Durnik · August 4

I agree these are time consuming and some just not interesting. Black Sacrament? I stopped doing those 10 years ago. Also, anyone else remember when they said that depending on the complexity some rewards may be higher? 15 seals for gathering plants is a whole lot less than 1 trial or 2 damage in pvp. How many zeros is that? Why no comma?!?

total 8-12 min can finished...

Yep, 200k damage in pvp is not as daunting or hard as people think. Grab a siege, go to any big fight with your siege...over in no time. The other two are even much easier.

cyberjanet · August 4

How do you do a trial when the servers are off all day?

SeaGtGruff · August 4

I haven't tried to get on yet, and probably won't for a few more hours, but if I can't get 3 of the 5 done before reset then I'll just live with it. I've missed daily endeavors before, and even a weekly endeavor, but I've already got enough Seals of Endeavor to buy a radiant mount if I want one, so it isn't like doing only 2, or 1, or even 0, is going to break me.

How is this brutal? Collect plants is very easy. They're all over the place in Cold harbor city. You don't even need combat. That's base game too.

Two visions only requires the first two cycles. It does not require being able to finish an arc. That's like the difficulty of a public dungeon or delve. It's also base game. The first couple of cycles are designed to be completed by everyone. If the boss you get is too hard just reset.

It just says complete a Black Sacrament. It's not asking for a perfect score. You could literally just pull the place if you wanted. I guess it's dlc but like come on.

You can't expect to get all the endeavors every time if you're excluding massive amounts of content.

All but the plant one are time consuming and at least for me nothing I actually do. I hate Black Sacraments and IA, don't PVP and don't do trials. I will one have one achivement today. It's a first for me.

I'm sorry to ask, but do you even like the game? It's supposed to be a bit time consuming, or do you want to be rewarded for eating a buffood?

The PVP one is fitting since there is a PVP event on, also it was done for me in a couple of minutes. 2 bosses in IA is about the same amount of time. Normal craglorn trial through groupfinder is easy and can be done by my sleeping cat. The same counts for Black Sacraments.

The daily endeavours did not take that much time, but with the maintenance I can understand players being unable to complete them.

PS: Days like today show why ZOS needs to get rid of the daily FOMO stuff.

5 water/alchemy is ~2 min tops, 2 first Archive bosses is maybe 5 min, and firing s few shots from a siege weapon at a bridge/milegate in some of the many empty Cyr campaigns if you want to avoid any actual combat (even with mobs) in Cyr/IC is... Also maybe 5 minutes.

I just tried attacking a milegate with a siege weapon, and the damage didn't count toward the Endeavor.

It seems they changed the criteria for this daily achievement. The damage has to be done to players now.

I think I only got the alchemy and PvP one done that day. It’s no big deal. If I don’t want to do it, I don’t.
