Bad Quests List

[Multibocks]

So I figured I would list up a few quests to let boxers know what will be too time consuming to attempt on high or even medium population servers. Feel free to add your own!

Hyjal:

Save the Wee Animals: Run around trying to right click small animals that move insanely fast and dealing with random aggro of near instant spawn mobs. Fun.


Slash and Burn: Get on a dragon and bomb stuff. Sounds easy right? Nope, spawn times are ridiculous, probably 5 mins per mob and seeing as you have to kill 40 of one type.... Add in many players randomly firing in vain hopes to get a kill. Ya this one took me near an hour.

Might of the Firelord: Ok this one was bad bad bad. Kill quest with very limited amount of spawns. People were running around casting AoE spells as fast as they could. Another hour of time wasted. Watch for the Flame Ascendants as they are the rare spawn you will eventually be waiting on.

I might add more later, but this was a nice NERDRAGE while I'm waiting on the server queue

As a boxer I would just grind instances and then go back when it settles down.

I have to agree with this completely. It sucks even for a single boxing and is complete hell while 5 boxing. just bang head against wall now.....

Got a bit upset at this one.
Been quite a while since a quest pissed me off.

10 animals is bad enough, but it is not shared credit.
So it was rescue the 50 bunnies and squirrels.

Yes, there are a few of the bunny type quests which REALLY should give shared credit, it SUCKED to box lol.
I did do a little of Black Rock Caverns but wipe with the chains on the first boss. Will try again at 81 lol.
Overall with a lot of screwing around I will still easily hit 81.
Rolll on 85

There is an annoying quest for mboxers where you have to ride a shark and eat the naga around, it only counts to the one doing the eating and the sharks are constantly moving. I was able to do this 3 boxing with jamba follow strobing but they still seemed to go off on there own since the sharks constantly move.

Lots of collection quests if you start in the underwater area of Vashj'ir, just be prepared.

[crowdx]

Yeah, Hyjal is where I am at but still quite a few collection quests. The issue overall is that with the phasing you never know what you might miss if you skip the collection quests. Most likely the second team I level I will be more educated and so can skip the annoying ones lol

[Khatovar]

Vashj'ir SUCKS. It's almost nothing but collection quests and following underwater is a major headache. and there's a lot of instances where you have to get a drop of something where the quest mob doesn't drop for the whole group. I spent well over half an hour trying to get tags on King Gurboggle because he only dropped his quest items for 1 person per kill.

Your junk is broken. All 5 of mine were able to loot him with one kill.

[edit] I was going to add a list of sucktastic quests but I realized that except for the kill quests, they ALL suck.

The rescue of the animals wasnt so hard. Interact with target made it quite easy and a simple target macro.

Interact with target has been a key feature so far with the masses of tards standing on quest givers. /tar name IWT ftw.

Getting 20 helms on my guys took me over an hour. I just want to instance farm. I have lost the will to live for questing. I am only able to get 200k an hour. How do you guys fair?
