What's your least favorite levequest?

Some of these are quite frustrating! Which quests do you hate the most and why?

My least favorite is On the Beating Path (Camp Bald Knoll, LL). Usually I solo my leves and this one just adds a whole buncha annoying on the side. The ravine that the defense takes place in is saturated in aggressive mobs. Takes a minute or two to clear this out, before you can even start defense.

Another would be Necrologos: Thousandfold Agony (Humblehearth, G). I had to do this one on my THM for some guild marks and it was aggravating. First there are 3 spawns for the galagos. Two of which are on the top level of the forest, and the third is about a minute and a half run away back down on the bottom level. Ugh!

Is "all of them" a valid option?

Any defense mission. You kill like 6 mobs in one spot and then have to sit there for 8 minutes waiting for the mission to end. Also, the one with the taru assassins at horizon where after you get to the last one it runs alllllllllll the way around the mountain and you have to chase it for a good 3 minutes before it gets to the place where its back up spawns.

Oh come on now, don't hold back! Really let me know, Wolfie! hehe.


Touche, sir.

Defense missions could be so rad.... COULD be.
We should be benifited for fast kills with more mobs and SP not punished. Total backwards design....

I don't really like any of them because they're boring.

Oh man whoever thought of defence missions should be fired, that guy doesnt know the word fun if it slapped him in the face.

And yes I agree all of the guildleves are BORING AS HELL. Even the first time I did them, and the reason is fairly simple: Rank 1 leves are IDENTICAL to rank 40 leves. Same shit different... area

I only do the main leves that everyone does (i,e., Dunesfolk, Cracked, Ranine etc) so my experience is limited and there's probably some obscure one that is way worse than any I can think of.

But, from my limited experience anyway, I would have to say that Ranine Reveries is the worst. Mainly because the mobs annoy me (stupidly oversized puks) and there's too much running.

But all in all, they're all pretty crap.

All defense leves... they need to be reworked completely.

Not only are the mobs in the a joke... it takes like 10-15mins standing in 1 spot to kill 6-8 because they come so slow, the mobs themselves die in like 30secs.

It's no different than most MMO kill quests then. When you go to a new city you're guaranteed the quests you're getting will be basically the same concept. Over and over.

I don't care much for guildleves because it was the only content released at the start, but some of the faction leves were fun.

Defense leves clearly were trying to mimic Campaign, but unlike Campaign and everything else XI related, they dropped the ball on mimicing the basic setup.
