Deadly Brew quest made me quit this game

Absolute joke for anyone under 22 without master of deception (which literally no one gets)

Can’t try again later because the charge is a 1 time use. To get another charge you have to waste 90 minutes of your life going clear across the world and pickpocketing an uncommon drop on an uncommon mob.

Banged my head against the wall for 2 hours on this BS on a 21 rogue.

Either make the quest level 22, make the charge re-useable or give people distract earlier than 22.

you could’ve just quit the quest.

And here I was thinking it was probably the best rune acquisition for rogues. I loved how it was done, except for the end having to run back to a major city before returning to outside SFK–but even that fit in with the story that Blizzard was presenting.

Except it literally can’t be done under 22 without master of deception and they steer you towards doing it at 20.

It’s bad design and a clear disregard for players time.

The rune is so important and I would have to waste so much more of my time now that I’m just mad thinking about it and now just flat out quitting.

Take a break, cool off, and try again at a higher level or with a group.

Did it at 21 without master of deception. It’s a game of patience gotta wait for the mobs to be positioned properly and facing the right way. Took 30-40 mins or so just on the dungeon part. Also had 1 death getting into the dining room.

All things considered I loved how the quest played into the rogue class and sneaking around was quite fun.

respec cost is 10 silver
at lvl 25 each quest you do gives 2g.

people doing quests for gold

Anyone doing this will be complaining how theres no way to level up past 25 without just straight grinding mobs. You’re doing it to yourself.

Started dungeon grinding at 22, left piles of quests to go do after, going to do a bunch of them still then murder my way through some more dungeons at the start of the next phase.

Probs going to finish off barrens and do maybe ashenvale and leave hillsbrad for levelling later

I did it at 21.

I respec’d to get improved stealth then respec’d back after 4 WCs after I noticed I hadn’t respec’d after I levelled.

respect goes up by increments of 10s each time, capping at 1g. I’m level 25 and my last respec was 60s.

Its pretty obvious Blizzard made everything involved to waste as much time running back and forth as possible cuz time is money. I’m fed up with the A to B quests then go to A and go back to B GOOD JOB! What a joke. Going to play DAOC now.

Imagine not grinding dungeons

its absolutely brutal for ally…
SFK > Stonetalon > SFK > IF > SFK?
Thats like a minimum of 4 hrs

you don’t have to go to stonetalon. you can just click the lever for the dude to open the door and vanish.

Did it at 21 without master of deception. Wasn’t easy but it was doable. Watch mob patterns, don’t move when they’re looking at you, hug walls and corners.

I did this at 20 with master of deception. Then I respecced. Easy. It’s really cheap to change your spec.

I waited until level 24 to do the quest, and it was easier than the actual poison quest.
