What Is Your Most Hated Quest ?

The quest is actually a parody on fetch quests.

 

How do you emanate? As in its supposed to be a joke about them? In which case, fair enough, although it seems more like something you'd get in a big RPG game rather than Wynncraft.
Also that was supposed to say fetchiest not feet Chiefs. My autocorrect is dumb.

 

Good thing you told him what to do with it. It's bad just to imagine he could have thrown it away and lost the true reward of the quest.

 

It was more that he was trying to use it as a legitimate weapon which made me laugh tbh. I guess he assumed it had some special ability, or was just glitched.

 

Yeah pretty much, it's a joke about them.

 

Eye of the Storm had so much potential in its original concept before Moodle stole it. I talked with Grian about this, he said he -tried- to make it interesting and salvage it; Moodle essentially did that solely on his own with no real bearing on what the quest was about, except "corruption of some sort in Gavel" and "use the dungeon build under the giant hand". The only reason Grian didn't scrap it was because so much work had already been put into it, and things were so far along already, that we couldn't really replace it easily.

So we ended up with a mess of a quest that had a story full of more holes than a moth-beaten quilt, awful gameplay, arbitrary villains, random objectives with almost no bearing on anything, and ultimately failed to increase the quality of quests to anything like what Gavel was meant to bring on, instead falling into the dubious honour of being a worse quest than something like Cook Assistant and Underwater. I -attempted- to patch up the story, but it didn't help much.

Story Synopsis:
Priest: "Hey these cultists are bad, go save this guy."
*maze-like area with obscure passages*
*hellhound out of nowhere*
Kidnapped guy: "Yo these cultists are trying to kill me because they're evil but they say they've not evil because we're evil because we're not evil. Don't worry, I can leave this room with heavily armed psychopaths who brought me down here in the first place, you can go now that you've accomplished nothing."
Priest: "Oh hey did you know this church in the middle of nowhere had an artifact of doom that was actually in Wynn before it was brought here for no reason and hidden here from before the time where humans were allowed in Gavel? That's a sensible thing to do, right? By the way those culty guys dashed in here like a minute ago and took it to the town, go fix it."
Cultists: "Oh, you can't go into a fully-fledged town that you can actually enter the boundaries of before completing this quest and therefore respawn there with no clear way out if you die cause we own it. Don't even think about going into the obvious entrance-hole next to us.
Mayor: "Hey man I know at this point that you've probably killed a few bosses that are way tougher than anything Gavel's thrown at you but hey go on my roof for a sec. Don't worry I hid the path to the balcony expertly."
*you look at the one defining feature of the Kander Forest that everyone knows about for two seconds*
Mayor: "HOLY SHIT WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG QUICK GET IN MY BASEMENT HURRY"
*you go into the basement and find a massive tunnel that -still- has cultists and shit in it even though it was supposedly safe*
Mayor: "BY THE WAY I PUT A PUZZLE DOWN THERE"
*suddenly sliding puzzle to waste 60 seconds of your time*
Wizard: "Nah these guys are amateurs but they still have a fucking demon hand jutting out of the ground since they got their special artifact like ten minutes ago, these cultists are terrible at their jobs but they're also a massive threat, go get me a thing so you can go into this area that your Purified Helmet of Legends should easily protect you from, no you can't go in there with it because reasons."
Cultist Guy: "YO IM GONNA FUCK YOU UP IF YOU GET NEAR ME"
*he dies in a matter of seconds*
Wizard: "Okay, awesome, now that you have this scroll that lets me send people into the culty place that was stolen from me a very long while ago, go meet up with this guy that's been in there since after the scroll was stolen but since before you got here, he'll help you."
*parkour+ranged enemies*
Spy guy: "Hey, I got a letter from the wizard guy thanks to Deus Ex Mailchina ExpressDelivery service: Running your messages through areas impossible to go through by normal means since 1897! Turns out that I can't help because my arms are useless ever since I got cut on my leg. Now SHUT UP AND HURRY TO THE NEXT ROOM THESE AMATEUR CULTISTS ARE GONNA RAISE THE DEMON CONNECTED TO THAT HAND"
Generic Satan #297: "MUAHAHAHA I WILL DESTROY THE WORLD BECAUSE I'M A DEMON WE DO THAT RIGHT"
Spy guy: "QUICK GO GRIND INSTEAD OF TRYING TO KILL THE BOSS BECAUSE REASONS! Wait, how I got here? Oh, I just ran ahead of you across this massive chamber with my cut up leg that keeps me from fighting, why do you ask?"
Spy Guy: "Okay you brought me five pearl necklaces that have nothing to do with the boss whatsoever since they had to use a special artifact of doom from another province to raise him, awesome now we can kill him!
Generic Satan #297: "NOOOO MY 24TH WEAKNESS! YOU WILL PAY FOR THIS, MORTAL!"
Spy Guy: "Awesome, go kill a demon prince now! Don't worry, even though that hand raised out of the hill is literally his, he's not even a hundredth of the size of it so you can kill him! Wait, how I got here? Oh, I just ran ahead of you across this massive chamber with my cut up leg that keeps me from fighting, why do you ask?"
*generic satan dies*
Spy guy: "Cool you got the artifact of doom back! Now bring this back to wizard-man. Don't worry, I'll be fine in this giant pit of death and despair with the demon's strongest minions, I can fight even though I have a cut up leg which makes me totally impotent while fighting, you can go!"
Wizard: "Shit you're back already I didn't get to practice my generic totally-not-ripped-off-from Lord of the Rings speech. Uhhh, here's some money now go away."
-end quest-

 

Temple of the Legends
It feels great to free lots of space from your ender chest, but the quest is painstakingly boring. It's literally "Get these items from your ender chest, travel all the way to the nether portal, head into this long cave to the side of the portal, go back to that guy near the portal, head all the way to Mage Island, climb to the floating island, drop from the floating island, grind for items, climb to the floating island again, drop down and head all the way back to the Temple of the Legends, find that guy in the creeper cavern in the Pigmen Ravines, grind for gold ingots at Rymek, find that leaf in the Dernel Jungle, find your way through the maze known as Maro Peaks, swim in the reef near Selchar for a specific item, head back to the creeper guy, head back to the temple, and the fun finally begins." You then fight the Corrupter of Worlds, which Warrior can easily tank. All that for a great grinding area when you already have a solid line of quests up to level 90... GEEZ.

Fortunately, scrolls make ToL a more bearable quest, but not by much.

Aldorei's Secret Parts I and II
Aldorei is a nightmare to navigate, and the quests are boring. The puzzles can be too cryptic (Who would know to go behind this house, gather seeds, and throw them on differently-colored carpet?), and the second part is only good for the lore. The armor reward for Part II is okay, but it's not great.

Realm of Light
This quest involves grinding, and it gives you access to an area that isn't even made yet. Didn't this quest come out a couple years ago? It's so anticlimactic, and what's worse is that it's supposed to be the highlight of Gavel's quests because you're entering the Realm of Light. It sounds amazing, but the quest is boring and feels rushed and unfinished.

Tower of Amnesia
This quest had some use before you could reset your skills with soul points, but now it's useless because it gives you access to a Skill Reset Scroll merchant. Originally, this quest was level 21 instead of level 25, and you had to obtain a Troms scroll as well as the other scrolls. You can literally just go to Selchar and buy its scroll and then had to Nesaak to buy the remaining scrolls. Doesn't that ruin the point of going from city to city, delivering their respective scrolls?

(Eye of the Storm isn't on here in detail because it's a given. Despite the gameplay not being too terrible, the story is very dumb.)

 

Hey, it used to be worse. You literally had to grind for stacks of low level junk, the boss battle had way less stages and cut scenes, and barely contributed to lore. Only warrior can tank CoW's attacks, and only through defense+war scream+base defense glitch. Other classes struggle to survive alone in that small arena without some OP gear.

 

Eye of the Storm, that freaking quest will be the cause of my premature death. Also The Canyon Guides, that stupid villager is enough to drive me up a wall. Another pointless quest is Tower of Amnesia, it’s legit useless now, and it used to be impossible when you had to go to Troms. Temple of the Legends was long, but it felt satisfying (kinda) when it was over.

 

Recipe for Disaster. We have to go across the map just so we can cook a piece of food and get another trash chestplate.

 

I believe that quests that aren't remembered are the worst and by that definition, I gotta go with "The Ultimate Weapon" the quest has no purpose and requires you to grind for a long time to get a "semi"-useless weapon.

 

Thankfully most of my most hated quests have been redone or revamped, but I hated the original Drought Sands SO MUCH. Do you know how annoying it is to get like, 10+ NON-STACKABLE water bottles and 24 mashed insects all while trying not to die because holy cow, those things hurt. I spent literally 6 hours on ??? for one class. That's all that needs to be said. (and I still have to do it on 3 other classes fml) Oh yeah, trying to get the items (and people) to complete Bob's Lost Soul is also pretty annoying.

Before ???, Jungle Fever was my most hated quest; the fact that you spend a solid 20 minutes just traveling to the jungle village, Detlas, back to the jungle, back to Detlas (to sneak into the bank area where you had to run past a really angry golem at the end of the ladder), GO BACK TO THE VILLAGE, go to Almuj, die about 6 times to the invincible level 70 golems while finding the door and the pressure plate, then going back to the village for the last frickin' time.

Most of the time it's just simply a part of a quest that I really hate, e.g. the original Beneath the Depths maze with skeletons part, the 3 stacks that you had to have for the stupid helmet at ToL plus the tiny TINY boss room where you're gonna get 1-shotted by CoW, tHE ROYAL TRIALS AIRSHIP, a lot of the moving parkour puzzles that were terrible because of lag (that invisible one with the glass? nonononono), and the Eye of the Storm puzzle. Yeah. I sat in front of that puzzle for 2 hours with a friend because we were too stupid for it.

Maybe I need to pay more attention to the lore of the quests, which it seems to me that a lot of people hate the RoL trilogy just because of the lack-luster ending (yeah I was like, wait, this is the end??), but otherwise I thought they were fine. Taproot is slightly annoying simply because I'm too stupid to find the two rocks right off the bat. I'm one of those people that will keep quest-related items for future classes because I don't want to go through the hassle of obtaining every single item again (still have a bank class with items from 2 years ago xd)

edit: I find it slightly amusing that people didn't like the old ToA (Tower of Amnesia because Tower of Ascension didn't exist at that point) because as soon as I found out what tp scrolls did, I went to every place to buy a ton of each, and I still have scrolls to every major town (except for some of those new ones that've been added). I also kind of liked the fact that it made you travel to certain places that you probably wouldn't have dared to explore (Troms exploration!), but also crossing the Great Bridge while 1-shot magma cubes dropped on your head wasn't that great either. I also just realized that the Tower of Amnesia quest is made even easier due to being able to purchase tp scrolls to towns nearby, and apparently you don't have to get the Troms scroll now?

 

The canyon guides honestly Seluc is a total scumbag

 

Tol basically took me 6hours

 

I'm gonna say Forbidden Prison, EotS, Aldorei I and II, and the RoL triology

 

My most hated quest(s) are: The Lost, Royal Trials (airplane part got me real good), ToA/Hive, Haven Antiquity, and any grind/fetching quests. The reason why they are my most hated quests is because
1. I was lost 80-100% of the quest without help.
2. I couldn't complete the quest until a later level (ToA/Hive).
3. The quest was straight up not fun to do.

 

Seluc: oh theres a rockslide
Seluc: whatever i hate these people *walks even slower*

 

I hate Zight Island with a passion!

EDIT: And Seluc can go suck an air bender staff

 

This made me laugh more then it should had.
And who was Moodle? I'm guessing an ex-ct

 

Because its fun?

I'm not sure about you, but I felt like a badass whipping through mobs like butter, and eventually besting Death on my own. (Or his imposter, anyways)

If you're not having fun with the quest, you don't have to play it; just skip it and move on. None of the quests in Wynn are inherently bad atm (except maybe EotS, but even then it had some pretty fucking nice moments)
