The Group Quest Chokepoint

Cathaldus · August 20, 2007, 09:33 PM

On my way to 70 I kept hearing about Daily quests and what a great source of gold they are. I quickly made the trip to Skettis and started the Nether Drake chain in SMV.

Imagine my dismay, then, when I discover that in order to unlock the dailies, I have to finish a 5 man quest in SMV and three 4 or 5 man quests in BEM.

I'm a solo player in a causal guild and getting a 5 man together just about impossible it seems. For three weeks I have spamed general chat in SMV as I farm and never get any bites.

Why did Blizzard put these road blocks in my path? I thought the point of the Dailies was a way for solo players to make money and get rewards that didn't require hard core raiding.

I agree its frustrating. Skettis is your best bet, as you dont have to do group quests to get rep, it just makes it far faster (I know!).

I can't imagine how long it will take to solo to exalted, but I'll post when I get there.
