    There's so many small things in this game that annoy me, but this is just torture. Saw a Railgun mission, switched it out because it gave gold, I didn't have a lot of time, and I wanted something a little faster. So I instead got this:

    I forgot this quest was in the game. Why is it still in the game? Among all of the other anti-fun mechanics such as the torpedoes going through walls, the weird hit detection, the weird targeting system, the bad trophy system, the HCTDM, the duct tape Reapers, the mines, the imbalanced matchups, the removal of any possible higher rarity items from chests, and the farming for ship pieces instead of event perks, I still have to deal with THIS Quest, and the event is down. I don't even have the motivation to keep trying ranked over and over to see if I get lucky match. I'm done. Maybe I'll feel better tomorrow.

    You really lost me about your complaints. If you think the quests you got are bad, try 4 kills with Napalm. If you think the game is bad right now, wait until you get to the higher league. There will be a lot of resources lacking that are annoying. This game provides insufficient resources to players unless you spend few thousands dollars. My advice to you, quit now.

    Resource troubles don't start at higher leagues, not sure where you got that idea. They start as soon as you get an epic. Actually, I could say they start as soon as you start the game. Someone always has better gear than you, and you will never have the resources to catch up to them.

    The thing about weapon-specific quests is that they can be avoided. If you don't want a Napalm kill quest, just unequip your Napalm when you're done playing and put it back on when you come back. You never receive quests for gear you don't have currently equipped. Kill quests can't be avoided, and kill-specific-ship quests are just lame. No even plays Enforcer, and getting the last hit on a Defender is a gamble.

    omg I HATE that quest! I got one for shooter/speeder/enforcer, kept it so I could refresh a mine quest, sunk a shooter and a speeder in short order... three days later, I refreshed it because matchmaking didn't even GIVE me enemy enfos.

    That’s the best quest in the game. I wish I could get it every time. It pays out the best!

    Got one of these as a 300k gold quest, can confirm, BEST quest in the endgame. Most entertaining, too.

    Agreed, I like a challenging quest as it gives better rewards.


    As for resources, it's all about management. You have to decide what items are worth getting to t5 Epic, what is sufficient as a t5 rare, and what you can wait for until you get the leggy achievement.

    I find the quest annoying since I usually can't get it done as fast as other quests. It wouldn't normally be a big deal, except I had less than 3 hours to get the quest done, and I had somewhere to be irl in less than 2 hours. If it was any other quest, I could have gotten it done quickly, but bad RNG hit me there at a bad time, so I couldn't get the purple chest. The reason I posted the screenshot was to show the time remaining, not the quest itself.

    I've had that happen before, it really sucks but it is what it is.
    Usually I finish all the quests a full day early to avoid that happening.

    Just added a suggestion on discord that might help

    I actually like that quest as well... it's better than a weapon specific quest and pays well.
