    Premium players are not qualified to reply to this thread, since they cannot experience this. :p

    Update: please read the QUESTION before answering the replies instead of the question...

    For me, it is the daily which requires a count on finished quests; when you do not have any quest left at your level that can be finished the same day, you can only go back to farm a repeat quest (myself I use the 10 shirts for that, unless I am in an area with an useful repeat quest), which generally brings you nothing and only wastes time.

    So, a few days ago, one of my character rolled the daily to finish 4 quests; finished that, then guess what? rolled daily to finish 8 quests...

    I believe certain repeatable low level quests can be utilized to complete these if you can't do full pw runs, etc.

    You are not answering the thread question, and I already said that in my post (the 10 shirts are the fastest low level repeat quest).

    Actually, imho, the best ones to do for your level are Gnome Mining and Troll Din in Hoggins. Less travel and two quests completed in one run. (If it's sheer speed for a single quest per run then there are other, even lower level quests out there.)

    Anyway, since 8 quests can be done in 4 runs that leaves Kill 20 champions/leaders as the worst. For a player who is only doing normal pve maps this one is the king of grinds.
    I am curious why you think that just because I have premium that I do understand the game well enough to answer ( :p back at ya ;) )
    Luck be with ye,

    The question is 'Which daily do you hate the most?'... people seem to have difficulties understanding the question, apparently, and answer anything but that question...
    I was not asking comments on the daily I hate and why, or answers to that (off-topic answers in both cases), I was asking which dailies players hate (could be the same or another, for any reason).

    And it is irrelevant to Premium players because they pick and chose for free which daily they do.

    I hate the pvp ones the most. I'm too lazy to play pvp.

    I dislike the craft 2/4 items in the workbench. I know they are easy, but most of the time I simply forget and melt/sell everything after each run...

    That being said, if I have clover for that day... Every daily is my favourite.

    You seem to misunderstand how a forum works. In addition to getting answers to your base question, you also generate discussion. If you want to be able to ask questions and just get answers, go make a new reddit page for DSO and be the one and only admin so that you make the rules. Otherwise, deal with it when you threads don't go the exact way you expect.

    You are completely and totally wrong and it just goes to show how little you understand the game, premium players, and the nature of the forums.

    First off, while I may be premium, I could still easily say what dailies I would hate if I didn't have a choice. Indeed, before I was premium, I had ones that I would spend 80 ander to bypass (back when the ander cost was 80, not 40), but, as it turns out, there is a daily that even I hate as a premium player.

    When the full moon event is on, sometimes the second category has you kill the mini boss in the silver mine instead of killing 5 mini bosses. More often than not, I don't need to farm silver ess and would prefer to go to the Bloodmoon map, but that daily forces me to go to the silver mine and waste time in there. Sometimes, I've finished the event and get it on the last day of the event and I need to waste time and a pass to go into the map just to kill the mini boss who is two maps deep when I'd really just rather be farming PWs.

    Aight then. The Daily Challenge I hate most when playing one of the 2 dozen accounts I have that are not premium is the kill 20. (I am guessing since you do not pvp you also do not want those dailys factored in.) Kill 20, without exception, is much more grind for any toon I have lvl 40-45* playing normal pve maps. Since I know this game there is no situation that I could not complete 2quest/4quest/8quest much faster than 5kill/10kill/20kill with any of my qualified toons/accounts.

    *if you are wondering why the cutoff is at 45 this is something you will figure out (or not) as you get more experience in this game.

    I hope this response satisfies the "qualified" part of your newbie thread :rolleyes:

    Speaking of Varholm this one also wins on the complete quests faster. I can do 14 quests there in a couple of minutes with Jon Sunclair and Shady John. When I used to play my alts I would actually plan ahead for this possibility during the event.

    And yeah, I also hate that kill the Summoner daily during the event :D

    Luck be with ye,

    Makes me miss the days when getting realm paths was a quest as opposed to bought from a vendor. Those always trivialized doing any number of quests for a daily. (Back when there was one daily a day out of three choices).

    I'm a premium player but, without fail, the one I hate the most is to get (any) number of PvP wins. I can't win. I'm not good enough and have no impetus to be a PvP player and am not built that way. The ONLY time I win is when I'm paired with a lower level toon doing the same thing I am. I could play PvP all day and never get that one completed.

    The second worst for me is any of the boss monsters in the PW 'cause I can't solo them. I don't always have a friend/guildmate online willing to help me either so those are bad.

    As for why you don't want premium members to answer? I don't get it. We'd be the ones who are quick to click to change to a daily challenge we want to do more. We get to cycle through and see all the options at that time (re: _Baragain_'s comment on having event monsters to kill) and can then decide.

    What I would like to see is an option to exclude PvP, or, to be fair, to have only PvP options for the daily. I can't imagine that the other, serious, PvP player who gets to kill me, gets a thrill out of running up to some toon who isn't even bothering to move, and killing them.

    I would have to imagine there is a slight mistake in your last sentence, what other thrill do twinks get. It sure isn't that they won because they had more skill than their opponent

    Point taken! But to have the other person not even TRY? Boooorrrrriiiiinnnnngggg. I figure their thrill is in seeing the other person try, just to squash them mightily. And what I find most amazing is that they get honor points for it.

    But not to sidetrack this thread, another one I hate is having to craft items. That always costs gold/ander and it requires (most of the time) that I also farm to get items I don't care about (low level preferably) just to craft and toss. I can't guarantee that I'm going to keep the items that I'm working with while "Crafting 2.0" so that isn't something I rely on for that Daily.

    i hate "kill ensorc'd oil lamp" crap daily.. and if it's a clover as erward for all 9 i have no problem spending the 40 ander to get something else

    as for the 8 quests..i either do the barrels+ trees in werian sanct or hognis mine

    I don't like the "complete quests", and hate the kill: Grimmag (I can kill him but he's annoying so I skip him), Mortis, Khalys, Herald, Lamp. They're ander eaters. I haven't even completed the Q8 quest just to save 40 ander for skipping the Sigrismarr kill DQ :p.
    I play all the PvP ones, I shuffle them only when I have a clover or when I wanna get them done faster.
    On my low lvl chars i hate the kill hundreds of monsters DQs. And the PvP ones since it's harder to get matches, unlike on lvl 55... plus I get to meet "the plague of DSO". :rolleyes:

    Also pvp part.. I don't like it and I don't play it. wish that part of the game was changed, because there are many of us who don't participate in the pvp but somehow we are forced to do the matches if we want the gilded clover... I find it a bit unfair to be honest :/
    The task requiring a player to kill a given PW boss or the jinn is also not one of my fav :/
