I really don’t get why people are finding the calligraphy hard.

I swear I’m still standing on that line when Nola arbitrarily decides that I “could do better.”
I don’t need that kind of internalized self-doubt in my life, Nola.

- LOGO, err Make Loh’ Go, is very nostalgic. I remember using this in the early 80s when I was a kid to make different programs and graphics.
- Shell Game is dead easy.
- Beachhead is okay if nothing else is available.
- Haven’t done the Cycle of Life quest yet.
- However the scrollsages can mark their own sigils to teach the young ones. I don’t care if they ever learn how to write.

It’s not really hard, it’s just really finicky. They had me drawing a square and Nola told me several times “i could do better”. Each time every bit of my drawing was at least touching the outline and never did I have a bit that was wildly outside the lines. To make it worse, when I finally “won”, I saw literally no difference between what she accepted and what she had been turning down.

If you’re bad like me, I’m pretty sure by the fifth try it basically just gives it to you.
Is Calligraphy even possible?
I’ve done the square and triangle so far on a few characters. Took some trial and error, especially with branches blocking my view, but eventually by luck alone I seemed to hit the corners close enough.
I did it twice - both factions, different location. Both were tracing a square. A Square. There is no Asian calligraphy that looks like a square. Okay wait, the Japanese symbol for Kuchi - mouth looks kinda squarish.
How did the OP die from this quest?

Maybe he took the pen and accidentally stabbed his eye.

It’s new so it might just be glitchy. I completed it first try without knowing what I was doing.
Being super easy for some and killing others sounds glitchy to me.
maybe next patch we can hit stuff with a wand or play a candy crush port

Yes, all the quests Nola gives you freakin suck.
She’s not the sweet old grandma she pretends to be.

They’re easy peasy ones that my low geared scrub alts can do when they first hit 120 without dying.
They serve a purpose.
But she is! Have you seen the actual voice actor?

There’s plenty of squares in Chinese… you know, the inventors of calligraphy.

I can speak Japanese, kinda read it but I can’t write it - Chinese is like Greek to me.
New toitle quests are fine…maybe we’ll get more than 1 shell and 2 beachhead at a time now.

It’s a weird, and probably buggy, quest.
You can trace the shape absolutely perfectly over and over and keep getting the same “could do better” line, but the third or fourth time she’ll just give you the win regardless of whether you draw a shape that has one point in Northrend.
