Wrothgar Dailies

Question about the Wrothgar daily quests: I noted I usually get 332 gold for completion, but on at least one occasion got 664. Is there something with these where you get more gold for the first daily you do, less afterwards? Or might it have been that specific quest (Fire in the Hold)? Anghara (talk) 16:53, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

I've marked this as a good question. —Legoless (talk) 16:55, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

The amount of gold you receive may scale to the character's level, as it does for writs and other daily quests. All values I put were recorded on my V16 character.Contraptions (talk) 17:02, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

(edit conflict) Hmm, that's an interesting question indeed. Something that would be worth noting is that, as Contraptions said, I think the reward is levelled, so if you're not Veteran you will get less. We should probably try and find the different gold possibilities for each level like we did for XP. For example, the possible values for Level 50+ were (at least at some point) 76/151/302/604. But those don't include the 664 (or 332) that have been seen recently, so maybe the value was changed, or maybe that includes the ESO Plus boost. We need to be sure to account for that extra 10% you get if you're an ESO Plus member. --Enodoc (talk) 17:08, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

At least in my case, with a character that's been the same level (V6), I'll sometimes get 664 and sometimes 332 for these. I did note as I was adding some details, though, that the ones I'd noted as 664, Contraption also had that value, and the ones I had 332 also matched. I seem to get similar values with my V13, but wasn't paying close attention - I've been gathering quest details on my second runthrough of the zone. I also don't have any non-vet characters to try out at this point, unfortunately. I'll see if I manage to get one of the delve dailies as a repeat and if the value changes - I still suspect it might decrease the reward on repeats, since I don't recall seeing 664 on my main, and she's tended to redo the same delve daily over and over. That is a good point about the ESO Plus bonus, and I think that's right - 664 is indeed 110% of 604, rounded off. Is there an ESO gold template that would function similarly to the ESO XP one? Anghara (talk) 19:11, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Not yet, but if we got the necessary values we could make one. Do you have ESO Plus? I wasn't sure if they had increased the base reward by 10% or if they've started to show the ESO Plus bonus on the reward screen (which they never used to). --Enodoc (talk) 19:36, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Yes, I do have ESO Plus. And not sure when that change started happening, I probably would have just chalked it up to changes in valuation had I been paying attention! Anghara (talk) 19:42, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

(←) Just to chime in here. Please keep fixing my silly errors. I'm not actually high enough level to do any of these quests, so it is entirely possible I misread something in the data and mess up on the quest descriptions or something. Also, I totally didn't realize that it was a trophy item, that one is entirely my bad :) Jeancey (talk) 20:17, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

Wrothgar is actually battle levelled, so you can do it pretty handily even as a non-Vet (assuming you have the DLC!). —Legoless (talk) 21:31, 1 January 2016 (UTC)

From the PTS Patch Notes for Update 9: Standardized the gold and experience received for the world boss daily quests, which will now be consistent across all quests. In the cases where it has been modified, we increased the experience gained, and decreased the amount of gold received.

Not sure if this will affect the original discrepancy noted here, since I think that's a delve quest(?), but it would definitely be worth checking again after the patch. --Enodoc (talk) 22:05, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

Repeatable Quests Timer

I believe it is 20 hours for all repeatable timers. (From Mount training to repeatable quests). Can someone please verify this?. Timeoin (talk) 15:47, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

Most of them are, though notably the crafting ones are 24 hours, though its been a while since I did any. Silence is Golden^{Break the Silence} 20:11, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Cap on the number of daily quests per day

"Note that there is a cap of 40 daily quests which may be completed each day."

Note that the limit is 50 rather than 40 (for example, if you grind all 48 Cyrodiil town quests you won't hit it). It's a character limit rather than an account limit, and I read that it resets at 1am Eastern (not sure if that is with or without daylight savings).

Splitting the page to daily and repeatable and leaving this one as ambi

The page is spreading misinformation in its present form. Quest are either repeatable once per cycle (QuestRepeatableType QUEST_REPEAT_DAILY) that resets or as many times as wanted (QuestRepeatableType QUEST_REPEAT_REPEATABLE). Putting them all to same category and representing them as same gives wrong info to reader as dailys rest 1000z. Also the quests don't have cooldowns, only reset time. Daily random dungeon is not a quest, neither is horse training or laundering. Ek1 (talk) 13:09, 3 April 2020 (GMT)

Sounds like a good idea to split them up, although we'll need to make sure that each page is linked from the other. --Enodoc (talk) 12:36, 4 April 2020 (GMT)

Alternatively, since Dailies are also repeatable, how many repeatables are there that aren't Daily? The only ones I can think of right now are Cyrodiil missions, the Thieves Guild Tip Board, and the Dark Brotherhood contracts. Maybe we just need to tidy this page up a bit to make it clearer. --Enodoc (talk) 12:56, 4 April 2020 (GMT)

Noting known issues / bugs?

Does UESP encourage this, and if so, where should it be noted? If player in Solitude accepts the Preservation of Life quest from Tinzen, then Hidaver's quest marker will disappear and no third daily quest will be offered. However, if Hidaver is visited first, then all three dailies can be obtained. Thread with ZOS confirming it is a known issue: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/529882/solitude-daily-quest-problem . ThoraldGM (talk) 17:08, 14 July 2020 (UTC)

Yes, absolutely. Bugs with quests can be noted on the page(s) of the relevant quest(s). See for example Claim to Fame. Unlike single-player releases however, noted bugs are removed if they are fixed, rather than adding details of the patch which fixed them, since you must always have the latest patch to play. --Enodoc (talk) 19:10, 16 July 2020 (UTC)

World event dailies

There are actually two each of "Sinking Summerset", "Dragon Hunt" (Northern Elsweyr), "The Dragonguard's Quarry" (Southern Elsweyr), "Halt the Harrowstorms" (Western Skyrim), "Halt the Harrowstorms" (The Reach). Characters receive one version on one day, and the other on the next. This allows taking one quest, and then finishing it the next day without being blocked from doing it again. Also can be shared, if a player receives the other one than the one already completed.

Notes on Daily Amount

I wanted to actually calculate the amount of dailies we have because the current method (using the magic word of PAGESINCATEGORY) does not actually provide an accurate number, given that there are a few junk pages at the moment, given that it counts the depreciated quests, and the redirect daily page quests. This data needs to go somewhere for backup. So:

• 52 Pledges, 45 Guild Daily Quests, 17 Writs, 11 Trials, 5 Arenas, 14 Craglorn, 6 Cyrodilic Collections, 9 Northern Elsweyr, 6 Imperial City, 12 Wrothgar, 14 Thieves Guild, 38 Dark Brotherhood, 26 Vvardenfell, 20 Clockwork City, 13 Summerset, 17 Murkmire, 13 Northern Elsweyr, 19 Dragonhold, 13 Western Skyrim, 20 The Reach, 12 Blackwood, 12 Deadlands, 15 High Isle, 13 Galen, 16 Necrom, 48 Cyrodiil Settlement, 4 Fighters Guild, 54 Battle, 7 Bounty, 4 Conquest, 72 Scouting, 18 Warfront, 6 Elder Scrolls, 3 Battlegrounds, 3 Hadran's Caravan for a total of 660 regular. 3 Holiday Writ, 10 New Life, 7 Jester's, 3 Witches, 12 Misc Holiday (Dawn of the Dragonguard through Fallen Leaves of West Weald) for a total of 35 holidays, making 690 accessible.

There are 31 pages (Arx Corinium Pledge, Banished Cells Pledge, Blackheart Haven Pledge, Blessed Crucible Pledge, City of Ash Pledge, Cradle of Shadows Pledge, Crypt of Hearts Pledge, Darkshade Caverns Pledge, Direfrost Keep Pledge, Elden Hollow Pledge, Fungal Grotto Pledge, Imperial City Prison Pledge, User:MolagBallet/Sandbox 02, Ruins of Mazzatun Pledge, Selene's Web Pledge, Spindleclutch Pledge, Tempest Island Pledge, Vaults of Madness Pledge, Veteran Banished Cells Pledge, Veteran City of Ash Pledge, Veteran Crypt of Hearts Pledge, Veteran Darkshade Pledge, Veteran Elden Hollow Pledge, Veteran Fungal Grotto Pledge, Veteran Spindleclutch Pledge, Veteran Wayrest Sewers Pledge, Volenfell Pledge, Wayrest Sewers Pledge, White-Gold Tower Pledge, Madness in Tamriel, Dark Anchors in Tamriel that should not be in the category/do not count as dailies/are in there for technical reasons. Oath2order (talk) 02:20, 1 February 2023 (UTC)

On a related note, the original concept of the page was good, but I think it has since become unwieldly long, if we are expecting it to list 639 individual quests. Perhaps it would serve better as a hub to the relevant sections of other pages, rather than a list which separately duplicates all those other pages. --Enodoc (talk) 22:48, 1 February 2023 (UTC)

I kinda disagree. It's just a big list of all the repeatable quests. We have a ton of pages like this. Oath2order (talk) 21:44, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

I was having the same thought recently. It would be good to divide this list in some logical way to reduce the page length. —⁠Legoless (talk) 22:01, 6 June 2023 (UTC)

Part 2

Picking up this discussion again, I think an easy way to start splitting this page for length would be to split Dailies and Repeatables. After that, Repeatables probably wouldn't need splitting further, but Dailies could potentially be split by Base Game and DLC/Chapter. We could also investigate whether using lst/lsth would be a safe way to get the content from a parent page without having to duplicate it directly. --Enodoc (talk) 23:32, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

What're we defining as the difference? Dailies as, well, exactly that, and repeatables as anything that cannot be redone daily? Oath2order (talk) 21:49, 26 September 2024 (UTC)

Yeah, it's literally in the opening paragraph - Some of these quests can only be completed once a day (commonly called daily quests or dailies) while others can be repeated as many times as wanted (commonly called repeatables). If we take the Repeatables out to their own page first, and then have a think about how many splits for the Dailies would be needed, and the best name(s) for those pages. --Enodoc (talk) 21:37, 27 September 2024 (UTC)

I think the best way to split them up would be as follows:

• Pledges/Dungeons/Arena/Trials/Infinite Archive
• Writs
• Guild (Fighters/Mages/Undaunted/Thieves Guild Jobs/Thieves Guild Heists/Dark Brotherhood Contracts/Dark Brotherhood Sacraments)
• Zone (Bounty/Exploratory/World Event/the other Misc zone stuff like Vvardenfell Relics or Clockwork Blackfeather Court/Craglorn)
• Prologue (the Murkmire/N. Elsweyr dailies)
• PvP (Imperial City, Cyrodiil)
• Holiday Oath2order (talk) 22:02, 27 September 2024 (UTC)
