These addons give a clear advantage over players not using such addons.
I’ve been waiting for over an hour to do an escort quest, (Ignition) which for some reason, is not being shared with the entire group. So only the person that starts it, gets credit.
People with addons that automatically turn in and accept, literally have an advantage over other players that aren’t using addons as such. Here I am, not even able to react to the quest NPC because someone just has to click on them a single time. Where as, even if I do have time to react, I have to do multiple button clicks to advance quests.
While I can’t say for sure if this is the case, there is a bug on some group quests, where if the leader of the group does not start the quest, only the person who starts it gets it, so thats an option to try, otherwise if you don’t want to use add-ons simply come back later.
Grouping with others, ones who may have said addon, could in fact alleviate this problem. Instead of telling someone to perhaps read, you should put some simple thought into it?
In his defense, some quests are bugged, as he mentioned which I missed, but at the same time, there are other options, and if it’s a busy. of enough quest, the answer isn’t to ban add-ons because you decided you want to limit yourself, but to simply come back later when its less busy.
Or, maybe you should have an understanding of how the quest works. The quest requires a starter quest. Once you complete the starter quest you can then start the escort. You have to be able to turn in the first quest before you can start the escort. Again, a person using this addons touches the NPC it’s game over for you. You missed your opportunity to move onto the next phase, and only they move on. This literally happened 4 times in a row last night for this quest. I eventually gave up. I did it today, grouped up with a hunter and boom. Same thing… They literally clicked the NPC and done. I missed my 0.1 second chance to click and turn in the quest before starting the next phase.
Eventually I got a group where no one was using such addons, and everyone got credit because everyone could turn in the first quest in and start the next phase.
This wasn’t the case. I just finished it with a group. Everyone got credit because we all turned in the first quest before starting the actual escort.
It doesn’t matter, you could use an add-on if you wanted to, you choose not to, thats on you. Also, how do you possibly know, some people simply are faster at that kind of thing or have less latency.
First, I shouldn’t have to use an addon to be “competitive” with another player.
Secondly, turning in a quest, starting a quest, in 0.1 seconds is not humanly possible. When I say 0.1 seconds I am not be dramatic. The NPC spawns, and boom 0.1 seconds later has moved onto the escort phase.
Next, are you pro botting too? We all can do that too.
This is why on that quest i alawys run up amd do the first quest while the hroup is still fighting and while doing that i type out instructions for everyone to get quest seems like you should just be proactive rather than whining about addons
Coincidentally, I did the [Ignition] quest on 12/22/2024 and had no issues with the escort quest part displaying the popup for my party members to also accept the quest.
