A Brief Guide to New Dungeon Dailies

by Xias

When it comes to the new the new daily quests which involve exploring the various Outland dungeons, it’s important to take into account a number of things. Firstly, I don’t know about you, but I don’t really have the time to do an instance run every single day, and I certainly don’t have time to do a heroic and a regular dungeon run. With this in mind, here are some things to consider:

1. Pick a dungeon you like

I never really understood the concept of “grinding” or “farming.” If I enjoy an activity within the game I’m more than happy to do it. Want to send me through Heroic Ramparts? You got it! I’m there! I like the dungeon’s layout, battles, items, etc. Don’t go to a dungeon that you detest simply because you have the quest there. Personally I hate shadow lab, I’m never going there again…ever. Don’t drag yourself through a dungeon for the sake of your daily quest. It’s just not worth it.

2. Bring Friends

Do you know how much more fun a heroic dungeon run is when you have your relatives/friends to share the experience with? Maybe the proverbial **** hit the fan and you just barely made it out alive while the healer, tank, and rogue are all dead, and then you dance while everyones face floor in the dirt. Everyone laughs and has a good time. Loot also gets distributed without any hassles, and the synergy of the group means a fast, fun run. Don’t PUG unless you have to. Trust me.

3. Non-Heroics are OK too!

I’m not sure why, but a lot of players seem to shy away from doing “regular” instances. Perhaps they are simply too l33t to step inside lesser dungeons, or there’s simply no gear in it for them so they refuse to go flat out. Me? I’ll take a dungeon I like in regular mode every day of the week and twice on Sunday over a Heroic Dungeon I hate. Regular mode dungeons are also much more PUG friendly, so if you’re going that route consider this daily instead.

Instances are just one of the many options that Warcraft has to offer, keep in mind that you’re in the game to have fun, not “grind” out shiny pixels.

Enjoy!
