Seasoned Adventurer's Cache - What's the point of these?

It gave me 1100 gold and 5 Weathered Harbinger Crests - which I have like 300…

That’s it? What is the point? Complete waste of time. Doesn’t even give you reputation.
That is like 4 Bismuth Nodes worth of gold lmao complete waste of time.

Way to go Blizzard really making the game feel fun and worth while to play, when nothing that I do in the game is affecting my characters power or growth in anyway.

Can’t farm rep - time gated.
Can’t work on professions - time gated.
Can’t do M0/M+ - time gated.
Can’t do Delves - Time gated. (Outside of garbage tier delves which are literally pointless)
Can’t do main story/campaign - time gated.

The only thing I can do is level alts I guess lmao nice job Blizz. Really nailed it with this expansion.

I haven’t seen a cache in over 4 days, so I was pleased to see one today in Ringing Deeps.
Hadn’t played the last 3 days beyond logging in and seeing a single WQ added to the map each day, so I had 3 WQs saved up in Ringing Deeps to unlock today’s cache.

1st two quests were kill 12 things.
Worms- zero mobs. 5 minutes in the area, over a dozen other players, not a single mob spawned.
Move on to the second one, 4 mineral deposits are spawned, kill those, no more spawns, wait 10 minutes to get the other 8.
Go back to worms, finally cleared out enough to be able to fight other players for the sparse worm spawns, another 10 minutes to finish.

Go do the 3rd WQ to unlock the Special assignment- disrupt the Earthenworks. Okay, lots of mobs at least. Start killing.
Each gives 2%.
50 mobs to clear this WQ? Tedious, but not dificult, reward should be decent at least…check and it’s 37 Radiant Crystals.
37 trade good equivalent for 50 mobs.

Are you kidding me Bliz?
Played a bit over an hour today, which covers my entire play time for the last 4 days.
Logged out.
What a joke.

Yep, it’s a complete joke.

The world quest design is the worst I have ever seen.

I long for the days when “A Turtle has made it to the water” - in comparison those World Quests were a joy and delight compared to this complete nonsense.

My only hope is these are also time gated and will suck less when the season starts

I’m not paying a monthly sub to wait and see if they’ll be less disrepectful of my time.
I played a total of 4 months over the last 3 expacs. Not looking like a change coming.

Edit add- Metzen on that stage was a lie.

Yeah if I didn’t like my guild in Cata classic I would just quit lol.

Thankfully for Blizzard Cataclysm is actually still fun and I enjoy raiding right now.
