Daily mission strategies for alts
Does anyone have any suggestions on the easiest way to do these on your alts?
Stuff like picking up gold on alts is kind of a pain, so is intentionally getting armor broken.
5 breakoffs is also annoying.
Comments
For Gold: Destroy items to pick up gold(I like Hoarfrost dungeons for this plenty of Ice Pillars) or any dungeon that has a lot of items to destroy in zone 1.
For Destroyed Armor: Run Hoarfrost Hollows with a friend and have them use the spike trap on you, breaks your armor after a few hits. Also good for the x3 Normal Feather mission!
That's what I do.
Edit: Forgot to mention for all 3 of Today's Missions you can get them all done in 'Hoarfrost Hollows'.
Gold and Normal Feather missions are party shared.
Obtain Gold from battle 10 times - Do Ingkells, it's a mini-gold mine. Just be sure to hit the chests and pots from the edge of the arena inward, and don't hit the chests into the fountain. You do not need to defeat the boss.
Successfully Mine 3 times - Do White Tyrant's Challenge. There are 3 ore veins you can run and bomb. You do not need to defeat the boss.
Defeat 5 enemies with spears - Run Mercenary Training Ground. As long as it isn't hero mode, you can kill each woodman with one spear.
Use Repair Kit 5 times - Run any mission and repair your gear at the very start. You will still get credit even if no armor has been damaged.
Request a Song - Pay the Pied Piper by the Rocheste Fountain, then return to title screen after you get credit if you don't want to stand there and listen to him play.
Build 2 Campfires - If you are in a guild, use a normal Campfire and a Guild Campfire in the same mission to save yourself a bit of time.
Defeat 30 enemies - Run Lionotus. There are lots of mobs right there before you even fight the boss.
Destroy Equipped Item 3 times. Run easy mode Colru with low level equipment. You have 4 torches to help revive you if you die before your armor breaks.
Use Party Feather 2 times - You can just use them without having anyone with you.
basically something like this.
a few more:
1. park your alt in rocheste, you get to a few of the missions easier this way (easy mode aghlan, pipe piper, learn expertise)
2. aghlan easiest break offs for 5 parts are head, chest and leg (you should see 3 ? cores on the ground when you're done)
3. armorsmithing and tailoring have leather deodorizer which can be craft by mats bought from npcs right in town, weaponsmith has fine iron ore recipe but you need iron ores from mp (which shouldn't run out of stock save for rare occasions).
4. similar to campfire, consider getting a fine armor repair kit, you can use 4 normal + 1 fine kit in 1 battle to complete the daily mission faster
5. a low level alternate way to complete destroy armor mission is to run 'Prepare for counterattack' in hoarstfrost hollow (it's shorter than brynn's research). Robust Echeloch's attack causes armor dura damage.
Be careful that you don't get that acid on your skin.
For higher level players it's just faster/cheaper to create infusion materials with the mats that come from the gremlin packages. For people with alts they most likely won't have any proficiency. It's a shame that there isn't any feasible low level cooking recipes. I suggest tailoring if you're looking for the easiest low level crafts.
cheap armors shall protect me
these advice are meant for alts after all. Tailoring have an added benefit of being the closest craft station from the dormitory
All suggested prof/crafting are 10 second at 0 prof and are cheap, also doesn't require you to get out of town.
i recommend leather deodorizer cause metal solvent can easily be bought from brakis/ferghus so arguably less useful, also leather deodorizer available to both armorsmith and tailoring. For the material just buy in bulk and craft 1 each day if the mission shows up.
If you forget what its like, you kill one normal toad and its over...
This one is great for todays daily 'Complete a Battle 0/5'
The main problem for that one is not the level, it's the story requirement.
Equip low level armor and make it 1/2 star.
Use Party Feather 2 times - You can just use them without having anyone with you.[/quote]
I usually solo and I'm having problems getting feather use to register. Tried single and party feathers.
Any advice?
