"But the majority of the ‘Kill X number of Y’ stuff we’ve gone and changed to feel more like the Northrend quest lines. So you’ll see actual storylines developing, you’ll get to use vehicles, you’ll see phasing tech, stuff like that."

Isn't that what boxers love?

if it makes a fun overall experience for the game and it happens to hinder boxers then Im all for it.

If it sucks for everybody involved then damnit....

Just so long as all those "kill [x] [y's]" haven't been replaced with "collect [x] [y's]"

[Tonuss]

The first time through I intend to read the quests and follow them and it will go slowly and I won't worry about it. Collect X? Sure! Stumble through phased areas? Well... okay...

The second time? Not so much.

The third time? People will die.

I tend to cheat. I look ahead on Wowhead for what the quest gives me. If it ends with just me running around for no real helpful result. I just stop and move on to other more helpful quests. I might do them on my solo chars, so I have to collect less stuff and see the lore, but not my boxing that makes me pick up lots of items. Other things, is BGs give exp, WG weekly will give exp, etc. so not much reason to do every single quest ever. I tend to say, "I need a new weapon, what is a quest that gives it to me." I look up and it says I need to do a quest chain X112Y. I will pretty much do anything in that chain, so I can have that item, even if it is a collection quest.

just painful when you come across a chain of collection quests. i sometimes like to follow the storyline behind the quests whether they be kill or collect so and so. might just run solo on those... most times i just give up. i gave up last night in grizzly after getting "The Bear God" chain completed and left the zone entirely. i don't mind collecting 100% drop quests or harvest quest but x% to drop quest (one after another even) items have been painful for my box'd teams.

here's to hoping they keep most collection quests group-wide (mob drops X for all in party) than having to commit genocide every time a team goes questing.

Or the dreaded kill 'a' things to collect 'b' things, combine 'b' things to get 'c' item. Then /use 'c' on a mob for each character.

Ugh collection quests... Hoping they're meaning the vehicle quests or where you control another character such as Arthas killing Illidian fight... That was a really good questline.

Another thing that sucks about collection quests the first few months of a new expansion is all the damn competition. People tagging your mobs right and left giving me nerdrage!

[Lyonheart]

They just mean no quests that have no lore or story. There are PLENTY of kill quests still. But the quests will have meaning. Not just go kill 25 Spiked Pickleboars because they stink.

[Ualaa]

Well, we at least have several options to level with.

I generally prefer to quest.
But there are also instances and pvp.
