ARR Beast Tribe Quests Feedback

[Xenosan]

Its been awhile since I did any beast quests. But in 2.0 if for some reason you accepted a quest and it didn't get completed, or forgotten about, the daily limit would either not reset or you wouldn't get the full allotment of quests.

I didn't have this issue at all iirc. It was my routine for the old beast tribes to activate the quests and then not complete them until just before day 3 window opens which would let me do day 1 and day 2's quest back-to-back, then activate day 3's quest and wait the 1.9 days do it over again [just before day 4 window closes, do day 3's quests, followed by day 4's, pick up day 5's once that window opens, wait 1.9 days, etc etc).

was this happening with a specific tribe? You can just run out of quest, they only offer so many on a daily basis, and a single tribe doesn't offer enough to consume all your daily allowances.

What they say is that, for ARR tribes :
- open all 6 (now 12) quests on day 1 and then log out ;
- on day 2, go to quests deliverers npc and notice how the quest icons are red ;
- complete the quests you opened and hand all of them to their respective npc ;
- now the quest icons are not red anymore but yellow, take them all (these are day 2 quests) ;
- complete them.

By doing this just before day 3 starts, once day 2 quests are handed, day 3 quests are available (and day 3 is the new day 1).

This is a known issue. See the Lodestone entry on it.

Unfortunately their solution is apparently to just fix the bug and then leave all those of us who encountered it and are therefore missing out on chances to increase reputation permanently behind those who lucked out.

Yup. My boyfriend is currently at reputation 300/360 at rank 2 and I'm stuck at 250/360 because of this issue.

Yep. And now that the fix is in, I can confirm that they in fact didn't do anything to help those of us who missed out on all three bonus quests.

Of course, they're also not doing anything for people affected by the retainer bug who missed out on a few day of retainer ventures. So I guess it's "play at your own risk" but it's still really annoying to be more than a day behind on the Vanu Vanu quests by no fault of my own.

The developers likely have no way of knowing who was and who wasn't effected by the bug, so they have no way of fixing it on an individual bases. Being a day or two behind won't hurt us in the long run.
