This world quest seems to not exist
I mean, having a quest that is necessary for a meta achievement only show up once a month doesn't feel like it's a hassle, does it? /s
So guys…
If you pay attention to every other world quest in BFA that isn’t on the meta, you’ll notice they all spawn much more frequently.
They intentionally make the ones that are required for the meta pop up maybe once a month. Blizzards decisions have made me quite infuriated over that last couple years.
The problem with these world quests is, is that if you’re out of town or working, etc. and can’t make it in time for the world quest you have to wait another month or two. AND THEY KNOW THIS.
Not to mention the timed world quests and the fact that you only get one shot and if you fail you’re left trying to do it on other characters if you have any.
The whole thing just feels so wonky to me.
Hopefully I’m not the only one that’s been frustrated with a bunch of the decisions they have been making for us collectors.
