A petition for 5 instead of 3 Zaishen quest stored
goondaba
I don't know about the rest of the forum members here but I find that I don't really have time to play during the week. Starting on Friday night, early Saturday morning, Saturday night, and early Sunday morning are the only time I can dedicate some time to playing GW. As such, I am hoping that Anet can extend the number of Zaishen quests that each character can have from 3 to 5 so that I don't have to abandon some quests just to get others. What does everyone else think?

will rl and 8 chars it does get hard to do them all and it would be nice to be able to hold more. but i dont think anet would do it.

Oh gosh yes!
Or unlimited even!
I am currently sitting on 3 bounties because the rewards are just too good to give up.
1,250k Vanguard points?
Hell yeah!
750 Lightbringer?
Ohh baby!
And Rotscalle.
It's Rotscalle!
(This guy will be the first one to get dumped if something cuter comes along.)
The problem of course is the fact that I am currently playing my para pretty much exclusively and he's completely new. Which means I barely have any places unlocked on him. So even when I want to do the quests (because I don't bother with crap that I am not interested in - which also means that I don't stock up on quests just because they are there!) - I simply am not able to do them because I can't reach the destination!

Too bad you can't stack up same bounties anymore.

I also find most of my playing time on weekends and would love to have the ability to hold on to some of the more intensive bounties (like elite areas) for when I'm able to get some guildies together.

And can you do 40 zaishen missions + 40 zaishen bounties on a weekend?
I'm like "prophecies missions - too long, next!"; "bounties on hard dungeons - next!".
I just do the fast ones and maybe some long ones if it involves something like a dungeon I need to finish a book or a long mission that will be the next to some character to advance.
Sincerely if they let you store 5 you will be asking for 10 because you simply won't have time to finish them all.
Doing 8 or 10 Rragar's Menagerie in a weekend TT.

Anyways, I'd like this. A mission/bounty quest most likely isn't going to be repeated for months, and it sucks when you have good ones that you don't have time to do.

It is 3 quests limit because 3 new quests come a day..but I must say have 5 pvp quests to do on weekends is nice. /sign
jonnieboi05
hmm... the only quests that get backed up in my logs are the PvP-related ones (due to being too lazy to get the max reward benefit and not dropping them til i do). other than that-- i personally think the 3-quest limit is fine.

I hate having to give up/miss out on challenges just because I get home so late or I don't have the time to do them.

Take the time to read and shut up.
The point of suggesting 5 saved quests is so that people who don't have a lot of time to play during weekdays can save the z-quests and do them on the weekends.
Maybe where you live there are 10 weekdays in a week.

its a DAILY challenge, i feel as if we should only be able to keep one ea.

Also, the daily refers to a different challenge everyday. If it were, in fact, your definition of "daily", there would be a reward collection deadline.

You would do the same thing if you had 5 as if you had 3, just let them sit there. People just want more pretty quests to look at and ponder on doing, but not actually doing.

The idea behind the 5 quest limit is to allow users to accumulate challenges across the weekday (when people normally go to work and/or school) and finish them on the weekend. With the 3 challenge limit, those who cannot play during the weekdays miss out on 2 out of the possible 5.

Plus, this is somewhat contradictory of ANet's hope to "achieve critical mass" on certain areas of the game. Players would have less motivation to complete a specific task immediately that day if they knew they had a lot more room to store challenges to do on later dates.

This. I already do enough quest storing as it is, I don't need to have more things piling up that I don't intend to do. |

Make it 5 and people will want it to be 7.

It would seem that the people who don't endorse don't really have a argument against the people who do. All they have said is that they "feel" where the supporters talk about specific real world reasons as to why it should happen. I don't know about anyone else, but between work, wife, 2 kids, baths, dinner, book readings, and such, I barely have enough time to grab the quests during the week much less play out an hour long mission. By letting me store 5 missions (the boss one's can be passed imo) I can stay up late on Friday (cuz i get up at 4 during the weekdays) and knock out one or two, get up early on Saturday (6am) , knock out another 1 or 2, stay up late on Saturday, knock out another 1 or 2, and do the same on Sunday morning. It makes sense for those players that have other.........priorities during the week. I can't think of any real reason as to why someone would want more, but I think 5 is a good balance. If you can't play at least one day out of the week, then maybe GW isn't for you!
Arkantos
Well, yeah, obviously. Give them an inch, they'll want a mile. It's like that for every update that gives us more of something we want. But if everyone followed that logic, we wouldn't have got more faction for AB/JQ/FA. We wouldn't have gotten faction rewards from vanquishing. We wouldn't have gotten reputation books. So yes, people will always want more than they get, but that doesn't mean they aren't happy with what they do get.

If people were doing the quests they saved.. they wouldn't need more than three. The whole point was to bring people together and letting people horde quests up will make the quest areas less focused.

Some people can do the quests the day they come out. Some people can sometimes do the quests the day they come out. Some people have enough time to get on for 30 minutes a day on weekdays, and they don't want to spend that time doing a mission or a bounty.

You two need to think beyond the confines of your personal lives.
Not everybody can put enough time in during weekdays to finish these challenges as they get them.
The idea of increasing the cap from 3 to 5 allows people to accumulate the quests over the course of the week and finish them on the weekend.
Megas XLR
And then people will start to complain about how they can't finish all five (ten or fifteen) quests over the weekend and worry about missing the next week's quests too.
Arkantos
As I said before, for mostly every update given, we'll receive an inch and want a mile. But that doesn't mean an update shouldn't happen. If everyone followed that logic, we wouldn't have many things that we have today.
Slushiiee x
wat is this zquest thingy never done it before
Megas XLR
So.. we should update it because it's bound to happen. Atleast the storage updates had meaning behind compressing materials and room for all the new items coming out.

Add new items and people will demand more.
Eventually people will demand more storage place.
You're arguing for and against giving into what people are asking for and you make a distinction between increasing the quest cap and adding new items and storage space. A tad biased, are we?
Arkantos
No, we should update it because nothing negative comes out of it, and it pleases the masses. If pleasing the masses is a bad thing, ANet fails, hard.
Megas XLR
They've been unpleasing the masses with updates for yeeeears.
I don't think they should increase the cap, but I guess since the people are demanding it, it's bound to happen.

I don't think they should increase the cap, but I don't think they shouldn't. I wonder if they would actually consider the fact that the areas would become less focused, or just increase it. Probably won't make a difference either way. |

hes just got all that negativity all tied up in himself. id love to see more spots just mainly i intend to do the quest but sometimes i got to wait a day or so. given five days would give me more options.
Megas XLR
I would love to give my most sincere apologies for giving a most horrid comment about updates not being adequate enough. I'm sure not ONE update has pissed off the masses, EVER.
It's not like people are hurting from only being able to hold 3 zquests at once, and I'm sure the people that will quit over it are the same people that will quit over any minuscule "problem".

True, it's not hurting people but it's still something that people would like to see happen, that's the purpose of this thread. Just because you don't see it an as issue doesn't mean everybody is in the same position as you.
