As the title has stated, I've used the search engine on this site.

My results are mixed...some people state that they are boxable and others say that certain one's are and others aren't.

Can/would someone who has experienced results successfully boxing the Argent Dailies please give insight. Maybe a quick write-up as to which are and which one's to avoid along with whatever macros they've had success with. I'm using the FTL model for controlling characters.

Any help will certainly be appreciated.

All of them.

The jousting ones suck. But you can do them.
Yep. The only thing I'd note is that you can only finish one at a time. What I do is park everyone (dismounted) near the middle and joust with my current toon while DPS'ing with my other 4. It's over pretty fast that way.

You can finish in under 30 minutes the easy ones -- kill 15 cultists, kill 10 specific undead, kill chillmaw, and the 2 sets of horsie-combat in southwest icecrown. Just remember to have buttons for setting your main/focus, assisting your main/focus, and interact with target and the joust ones are easy. Its nice to set up a macro so you can quickly equip and de-equip the argent spears too.

I skip the ones that take you out of the zone (go get stupid swords from ladies in lakes, etc) and the jousting ones. Even still I've got 5 characters with crusader title and 3 more nearly there. Once you reach crusader you lose most of your dailies and get a few new dailys that are easy to box.

I don't need all of the seals on my extra toons. I only need them really on Arlassa for the purpose of buying mounts. I've finished all of the lower ones (The sword ones, etc), so I have access to only the final dailies.

I do them on all of my team except any collection ones. It varies from day to day, but I only do the joustin one on Arlassa, as well as the Egg/Leg/shark dailies. The Kobold one counts for all toons, so I will box that. I end to Storm Peaks to do the frosthold daily, anyway, so I don't mind taking the detour out there for a few of the dailies.

This generally means that Arlassa gets 10 a day, and the other toons get 7-9 a day. And seeing as how I really only need the seals for mounts and possibly other heirlooms down the road, I'm okay sacrificing those 1-3 other seals for saving time to do other things.

It really just depends on how bad you need the seals.

Seals on all toons = buying BoE pets = sell on AH for $$$

I think you've mistaken me for someone who was having money troubles.

While I appreciate you looking out for my financial state, I assure you I'd much rather do more enjoyable things than doing collection quests dailies to squeeze out an extra 1 or 2 seals a day which would equate to a piddly amount of gold from a flooded AH system every few weeks.

learn2prioritize your time ;)

I think we agree. I think you just misread (or didn't go past the first sentance :p) of my original post. hehe

I do all but the collection quests on all five toons. The collection quests I only do on Arlassa, since I want mounts with her.

Arlassa gets 10+
Alts get 7-9+

I think there's where the confusion was, and I think we're both on the same page now :P

You're right, most are boxable and easier if you box, for that matter. I just can't be troubled to do jousiting 20 times a day for a single extra seal on my four alts.

Only ones I don't box are the jousting one (I know the alts can help if not mounted, but bleh... four times a day on Arlassa is enough for me. Vehicle combat is lame.), The shark meat one, snake eggs one, and jormungr (sp?) egg one.

As far as collection quests go, none of them are all that bad, but I really just am not interested in doing it. I want to be in and out of that place as quickly as possible, while maximizing Arlassa's Seal count, so I can go on to farm the heroics I farm each day and then ultimately get onto the fun stuff, like working on a new alt, doing other dungeons, playing with my Siberian Husky puppies irl, what have you :p

So yah definitely box the ones that are easy to box, but each individual has to decide if the collection quests are worth their time, or not. I need to collect 1000 seals on Arlassa. I'm at like 280. That'll end up being like 800+ seals on my alts. That's a lot of AH pets :p

all of the argent tournament is boxable.
for the jousting parts at the tournament area I have my spell casters stand on the side and as long as they aren't mounted they can assist the jouster. the dmg they cause is kind of nerfed but it's enough that the jousting matches go relatively quickly. It's sux we don't get group credit so each has to do it.

the jousting matches at the gate are all boxable with everyone mounted with group credit. I use the same macros I used for the ToC when trying to dismount the champions.
