chillenword Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) My log is full of them.. FIX THIS CRAP SOON PLEASE! Trying not to hate but it is frustrating and restricting as heck! Edited January 25, 2012 by chillenword Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crittsta Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 If its so frustrating, take an evening out and complete the quests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillenword Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 Good answer, I think that would frustrate me more.. as for my time is limited to play video games. I don't want to go spend a night of my time doing grey quests, hitting spacebar through cut scenes... I pay 15 bucks a month for this game, I should be able to quit a quest that I don't want to do, and that is irrelevant and unrewarding. I also put a ticket in for this, and haven't received any sort of answer.. which frustrates me even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pursang Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 It's a known bug - you can't abandon bonus series quests that you haven't completed. My best advice is to sweat it out until they get around to fixing it. Whenever that may be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TelamonSedai Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Maybe I'm missing something here.... but there is a bright and shiny "Abandon" button in the bottom left corner of the quest log. It even has a really cool big red "X" within the button. Color me confusded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillenword Posted January 25, 2012 Author Share Posted January 25, 2012 I know, I've been sweating it out since the 13th of december.. I view this as a major bug, yeah.. it may not be game-breaking... but I think they should have fixed it before things like, slicing, adding new content, class changes. I'm sure you all could name a few. I have tried to go back to some which lead to more un-quitible quests. , and have given up because it is a time drain and have so many other things I would rather do.

Not all quests will let you abandoned them. It's a bug and not just with the bonus quests either. My Merc has 23/26 quests and over half are damn L23-38 grey quests that can't be deleted. Why should I have to waste my time going to Nar Shadaar when I should be fighting in the GCW instead?

the_banana Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 (edited) This is one thread I can actually get on board with. Why the heck are there *any* quests you can't abandon (except for class-quests I suppose)? It's silly in the first place. I want the damn things out of my quest log so I have room for quests I actually want to do. And no, it's not just bonus-series quests. I have plenty of others with a nice, gray, unusable abandon button. Edited January 25, 2012 by the_banana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirtyDozen Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 There are planet storylines (not class story) that have quest chains and those too are not able to be abandoned. I just learned early on to watch for them and make sure they were done before I left the planet. That's only because I knew of the problem from beta. But I think by now if I had 20/25 quests taking up my log I would just go back and knock them out. I think that beats waiting around for an indefinite amount of time for it to be fixed while only having room for 5 quests in my log. That does suck but I think I would have to do it at this point and your problem would be solved sooner than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Endriss Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I have quests as part of my class story "kill 10/15 critters I never finished and now I can never complete it as it was in a story mode area and cannot abandon it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirska Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 I have a class quest that duplicated itself somehow and now it's stuck at a gray level like 10 levels below me. No way I'm going back and doing all that content again to get it out of the way, and there's no guarantee it'll go away when I do (I might just have 2 identical quests).

Lankybrit Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Why does everyone call them Quests? Are we really all stuck with WoW terminology so much? They're Missions. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeonidasSith Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Why does everyone call them Quests? Are we really all stuck with WoW terminology so much? They're Missions. Cheers. The term quest precedes WOW by decades. It's an rpg term, and this after all an mmorpg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah, that one does suck. I did have that happen on one of my early characters. That is annoying. I learned from that to always finish bonus missions too.

Ukucia Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 This is one thread I can actually get on board with. Why the heck are there *any* quests you can't abandon Because there is a mirror problem. What if you abandon the quest and don't remember where you got it? Now we get angry posts all over the forums from people who can't find the questgiver they need to re-start the quest. So they made quests not-abandonable. IMO the fix for this would be to make all quests abandonable and put a "jobs board" at the spaceport which could direct you to any available quests on that planet.

DirtyDozen Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 The term quest precedes WOW by decades. It's an rpg term, and this after all an mmorpg. Indeed, and it's used so often it's hard to stop. It's the same with EVE players that mock you when you call them quests. Whatever, everyone understands what's being discussed.

Novastinger Posted January 25, 2012 Share Posted January 25, 2012 Yes, it would be nice if they fixed this (actually fixed it, not just post in the patch notes it's fixed). That or they could just increase the 25 active quest limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
