New dailies are different for everyone?


Recommended Posts

OK so my boyfriend and I have both PvE and WvW checked.  We both have the SAME expansions.  We had only 1 of three matching daily assignments (I am not counting the brain-dead "log in" acheivement). Mine was

Perform 3 combo skills in combat, Defeat 3 enemy invaders in WvW, and Complete Vexxas Lab Minidungeon in Fireheart Rise.

He has:

Defeat 5 Veteran enemies, Defeat 3 enemy invaders in Wvw, and escort supply caravan in WvW. 

Sooooo the answer is YES dailies are different for everyone. It looks as if they're randomized.

Same options same dalies as far as I can tell but unticking one gives you another option from the other 2 so it seems good!

No .... NOT good. My initial question was wondering if I would share the same daily as my boyfriend and the answer is an undeniable NO.

Sweet Jesus, whyyyyyy?!?!?!   Don't they WANT us to play together?  This is awful  😞

Now now now, it's not that bad!  He can stand next to you while you salvage 10 items, and you can stand next to him while he breaks a defiance bar.  That's entertainment!

Sometimes I don't know what to do ingame, but then I use newly introduced "objectives" system to nudge me in some new interesting direction. Whenever I see...

The funny part is that I ran into a camp, dodged as the guards attacked me, and ran through my rotation killing everything, captured the camp, all in less than a minute to complete my dailies. Glad I had some guidance in finding some engaging play.

From what I see, there are 4 things you need to do daily... One was to login to game, the next was to kill 10 enemies using something like honing tools... Then it gave me a PvP and a WvW task... BUT I did NOT choose PvP or WvW. I unchecked those boxes and kept the PvE box checked.

Why are they making me do PvP and WvW dailies when I did not choose them? (You need to do them to complete your dailies.) This means I will NEVER be able to complete my dailies or weeklies because I don't do PvP or WvW and have never done them.  Why are they forcing this onto people who don't want to do them?

"Complete the Spirit Vestibule Minidungeon in Seitung Province"

 

I would just like to thank Anet for including this one in the first set.  Whoever is the genius behind including that one should probably not ever be allowed to touch daily quests again. Thanks.

lmao the put Zen Daijun in dailies? LOL.

I had the same thing with my wife where we did dailies together. Now they are totally different and even if I help her - I get nothing for that. Before I could do my PvPs/WvW dailies, help her with PvE and get credit for them as well (as well as extra loot). Now all this is gone.

i noticed this yesterday - daily had only 4 options, which u must do all of them to get chest (and gold). The weekly has 8 options but you only need to do 6 of them to get chest, which is more like how it used to be. Pick the content you want to do most and get rewarded. The daily however feels like they are forcing you to do content you hate(by not having more options in other areas*). Is this their method of getting more people interested into playing pvp and wvw by forcing them? really that's the strat? feels more likely that you 'll be losing players from the game entirely strategy!

*pretty sure before i could do all pve or all wvw or all pvp dailies or a mix of whatever and get credit. Now yer forced into doing everything. This isn't going to be good for those types of content people hate and just stand there (when the daily lets you) afk to get credit and leave. (this was a problem with pvp before - now its back!)

 

And for some strange reason after you complete the objectives you have to remember to check them off or NOT GET ANY CREDIT AT ALL???  You do all the work that you didn't want to then anet says NOPES NO CREDIT FOR YOU! Why isn't it automatic like it used to be? What is the reasoning here? Oops Oversignht? wuuut???

 

edit: ignore the "forcing you to do content bit." i discovered earlier today after someone told me rather then just posting the confused icon and keeping the info to themselves, that you can select yer dailies with the gear icon and select which game modes you want to do. default setting is all 3. just uncheck the boxes you dont want to do.

Sad thing is you can't preview what they are like you used to be able to if you select wvw and then decide you dont want to do it, yer stuck unlike before. So i'd still say it a lil worse then the old way.

I picked wvw only for today (and it was as good as before the update):

  • kill 1 dolly
  • kill 3 enemy players
  • kill 5 guards

I didn't know you need to click on the chest icon after the dailys too -.-

Think I didn't do that yesterday *sigh*

I play nightly in a Guild group in WVW. 

We have been playing together for years in this manner and the social aspects of that are wonderful.

One of the things that we take care of in our group are the WVW dailies.

This new system is terrible now becauase now we cannot do this as a group. Different members now have different dalies.

This new system is about as bad as you could possibly design for what is a game that is really a social cooperation game.

Not a bug. 

  • The September 17, 2019 patch disabled the Glyph of Reaping in instances for players who are not instance owners. This mainly applies to visiting other people's home instances to harvest their home instance nodes. Guild halls are unaffected.

There are many types of bugs. One type is a bug in the design specification.

This is a bug.

If you don't pick PVP or WVW then you get 3 PVE options? So your not forced at all.

Its different even if you both pick just PVE or something?

Maybe Anet just had no idea people where playing GW2 together, because thats the only answer that makes sense for this kind of oversight 🤔
