Taskmaster

Nice and thank you.

So I wasn't hallucinating that this was a new thing?

While I generally consider the hearts in PoF to drag on a little long, it's not a bad way to keep someone on a map for more than a minute. And rep quests tend to have events around them, so it's not a bad change. :)

Excuse me but what the kitten is this about?

The first time I saw 'Taskmaster' as a daily. Basically, do a heart in the specified zone.

One of the possible PvE dailies is to finish a heart in the Elon Riverlands. I also got the Vista for that area in my mix. I wound up spending a bunch of time there last night between working on map completion and the Griffon tasks there.

I was very happy to see this! Not only did it give me a reason to return and play around in the desert (which has been feeling like a big waste of space lately) but it was much less painful than running around trying to find active events. I even ended up staying and puttering around in the desert for a while. ^^

Me too, or me three or four. Making it an achievement takes away a bit of the boring grind of re-doing a heart.

Not only that, but when I was doing my taskmaster daily, there was an honest to goodness doppleganger event happening! I enjoyed seeing that. :)

I have to admit that I audibly sighed and thought "Ugh, I have to do one of those hearts again?!" when I saw it. But, at the same time, I think it's a good way to bring players back to those zones, even if it's just for a few minutes at a time.

Honestly, a bit of karma and a bit of mastery xp doesn't entice me to go back to Elona.

No, it isn't. It is simply another way to lose a bit of time in those areas because the devs did not add any content fun or worthy of getting done.

Luv it! <3 Make Central Tyria dailies as well pls.

[Inculpatus cedo.9234]

The Dev could not make 'Taskmaster', or, at least not Renown Hearts, a Daily in Core Tyria, as they are not repeatable. I think they already have the other possibilities in Core Tyria.
