I've done The Oasis, but can't find Custodian Duties anywhere! Where is this quest?

Comment by Lornaa

I assume that Wowhead will be adding the Horde versions of these quests to their database at some point? Preferably before the content is available to work on?

Comment by schintus

Sweet! I love time-gated stuff!

Comment by zrbrc

Wish I could skip this on alts, it was annoying enough the first time.

Comment by Paddy1

I've never been so bored completing a questline before ... this...

Comment by Minuounim

I logged in just to say how dull the quests were, chasing bees for an hour what wonders await our future?

Comment by Purinzu

Hate to say it, but the bees questline was extremely long, dull and repetitive.

Comment by estarianne

OK I finished the questline but weekly quests aren't available, are those time gated to next week?

This is so much more confusing than it should be.

Comment by erro3

I think this quest chain was planned by throwing out as many bee puns as possible then turning them all into a quest of some sort.

Comment by Certified

this was one of the worst questing experiences i have ever had in wow. it almost reaches the levels of collecting zhevra hooves in the barrens

Comment by kogaSagara

I logged in just to say that this is the worst over complicated weekly, jesus F christ blizzard you cant solve a lack of content with horrible chores!

Comment by Alchymist90

This is some of the most mind numbing and dull questing they've ever put in the game. I just stopped doing it I really don't care. I wanted to finish it but its not worth it.

Comment by xxxguzxxx

never want to see a bee again

Comment by Gokom

Not worth the trouble for just one coffer key.

Comment by Eloky

Can someone tell me if completing so many missions gives us some reputation with Karesh?

Comment by Kagg

The single most boring group of quests ever. I knew these were long and tedious so I don't even bother to read the quest text. It is a shame because animal conservation can be really fun and exciting. It is like they went to a museum for inspiration and then took all the fun out of the museum and put that into a game. I don't want all the minutiae of conservation. I want all the fun. This is a video game after all.

Comment by bleakraven

Is there a point to these long ass questlines? Not even a title, mount, or appearance reward :(

Comment by squidman

Created an account after 20 years of playing to say that this is one of if not the most tedious quest chains I've ever experienced.

I genuinely believe that this was designed by AI, I have never seen something so brazenly lazy before in WoW.

Very disappointing

Comment by HMoody

The bee-quests are there to dull you senses, so you can endure the next 17856 even more tedious quests more easily. Good job, Blizzard!

Comment by 1709489

This constant campaign is full of long, repetative questlines and absolutely none of it is rewarding anything useful.

If you hate quests, save yourself the time and ditch the campaign after you've gone far enough to unlock/do the weekly cache quest.

Comment by Kalculated

This might the most repetitive and unrewarding ^&*! since Fireland's fire front dailies. At least that gave you gear. This is just, repeat the same miserable and repetitive stupid-ass quests 7 times in a row, with time gating thrown in as an extra $%^& you.

Comment by kello88

there's so many quests.

super metroid ---> kill the animals

Comment by Harris

This is the worst weekly content I've ever experienced in the game. Quests are bland and straight up take too long to finish, after you finish them you are too bored to play the game anymore.

Comment by Sane45

This has been the most boring quest line I have experienced in a long time /yawn.

Comment by MsBrightside

Just logged in to say this is an absolutely worst, long, boring and annoying campaign ever created
Whoever put it on the live server should not be allowed to make in game content again

Comment by Dominornex

At what point does this questline end? So annoying!

Comment by tk82

The bee questline was completely fine. I enjoyed the dialogue. No idea why everyone here is so negative, especially for optional stuff.

Comment by Daemonanyndel

IT NEVER ENDS

Comment by Bloodymike

Does any of this actually give reputation with the K'aresh Trust? If not, I might just stop bothering — this is way too boring without rep gains.

Comment by alphahorizon

I was wondering what was going to pull me away from this game to do more constructive things like bash my head against the wall. Welp, congrats Blizzard you created the perfect game quitting quest chain. Thanks for time gating coffer keys.

Comment by Cuffouis

I would pay twice the price for my subscription to see these time-sink abominations removed entirely from the game. And why are they considered a part of the campaign? They are side quests at best.

Comment by Kalnov04

This is waaay too dragged out to make it any fun. I also don't care for the fact that to get a whole restored coffer key you have to stumble around out there for so long, like it's your job. It's a bummer too, could have been a lot more fun.

Comment by offspinner

This has turned out to be a big disappointment.

Blizzard could have done something novel and fun here; making the player balance predator/prey numbers, finding and collecting the right food for the species in the dome, growing plants & removal harmful species, that kind of thing.

But instead we get a series of lame and repetitive quests which are ultimately meaningless. An opportunity missed.

Comment by scarredwire

I get bee quests every week, no other species - checked logs, no uncompleted quests. what gives?

Comment by WowFan2022

$%^& questline.

Comment by lePangaea

is there a reason to do the blue quests after you have the achievement?

Comment by Whiperdor

This quest has led me to a very aggressive stance vs Bees. Whenever i see them in RL i want to end them.

Comment by KaixAFK

I've done this quest around 40 times so far. One pet per week, usualy on the first weekly. Same pet 2x now

Comment by Dakasgrim

Been playing since ToC, am a bit of a completionist doing all the quests I can find, and dang... this was the greatest waste of time I have experienced in the game. The absolute worst content. Whoever made this should be fired. I unsubscribed for a month because of it because of how awful the Bees quests were. I don't need to be doing all the nonsense work of the NPCs. They can do their own work. This was not fun. Please fire whoever made this.

Comment by daveyp2tm

This is, no exaggeration, the worst quest chain ive ever been on in wow. I dont think I will finish it. Im at step 47 of doing the same thing over and over and have now learnt im only half way through. The most brain-achingly dull series of quests just to unlock a weekly. Its an absolute joke, what a waste of time.

Comment by Melkekartong

It's safe to say that these patches are all rushed and Blizzard either don't care, or they are not getting enough time by Microsoft...

Comment by Archknightz

The day i finished this quest was the day i could start playing the game.

Comment by Limetail

They could have put a cool mount at the end of this.

Comment by PciArgentDawnEU

I reactivated WoW after almost a year's break, did the campaign quests, and now I'm left with this. Who came up with this nonsense :(

Comment by JohnnoDH

I came back to WoW after half a year absence and this entire questline gets served up. I never cursed so much while playing a game in my life.
Tedious, boring, repetitive and so on.

Comment by Iamthecowlvl

a lot of hate in the comments for this chain but I love it. really builds into the lore of saving k'aresh, especially after the eco dome instance questline. Absolutely love it.

Comment by Jeion

I created an account just to say this is predatory content that exists only to pad the game out and STEAL people's time. This is probably the worst quest chain in all of TWW.

Comment by Retrofrito

Is there someplace to find a full list of all K'aresh campaign quests?

Comment by Cyradus

This entire quest chain reminds me of FFXIV filler quests.

Comment by Kclack

I have loved The War Within. I will not be finishing this part of the campaign. It's ok if you decide that as well. We all understand.
