From someone who couldn’t stand quests in World of Warcraft, to one who has completed them all. But which were the best quests?
Quests in World of Warcraft are a often debated topic. Some love to complete the various little stories and tasks, feeling that this part of the game can never last long enough. Others find quests annoying and wish they could completely ignore this part of the MMORPG experience.
To the second group belongs a player who initially had nothing to do with quests – and in the end completed them all.
How a WoW player became the Master of Teachings
What happened? In the WoW subreddit, the player Time_Adhesive reports that he initially hated quests in World of Warcraft. However, he now proudly shows a screenshot where you can see that he has completed the achievement “Master of Teachings”. WoW has “shaped him as a player” over time – and in the end, he completed all the quests that the game has to offer.
What reward is there for this? Those who complete (almost) all quests will ultimately be rewarded with the achievement “Master of Teachings”. This not only grants the title “Master of Teachings” but also a special tabard, the “Tabard of the Master of Teachings”. It features the classic exclamation mark on the front, setting it apart from others. However, you will also need to complete some truly dark quests for this.
Which areas were the best and worst? In the comments, Time_Adhesive answers some questions about his journey and reveals which areas he will avoid from now on.
At the top of the list is Vashjir. The underwater zone has been controversial among the community since its introduction in Cataclysm. In contrast, Pandaria was much more pleasant; it just breezed right past him.
His generally favorite era, however, are the “Classic areas, in their post-Cataclysm state as they are now.”
Why is the achievement so hard? The achievement has become more extensive with the increasing age of World of Warcraft. New expansions are integrated into the achievement after a while. This means that with each new WoW addon, the number of quests needed for the achievement dramatically increases.
Currently, the quests from “The War Within” and “Dragonflight” are still not part of the overall meta-achievement, so it is possible that Blizzard will not expand it further.
So far, you only need to complete all areas up to and including Shadowlands. But even that involves several thousand quests that you need to complete.
Have you also completed the Master of Teachings in World of Warcraft, and did you enjoy the journey? Or do you have no fun in completing quests at all, so you tend to skip them whenever possible? Here are the 5 funniest quests in WoW.
