    These escort missions are awful and I'm convinced Square Enix hates me every time I do one. We should discuss how awful these quests are.

    You mean the leves to unlock a new levemete? I find 'em easy. What's going wrong for you?

    I might have locked levemetes left on Despard, perhaps I'll check before Sunday and you can watch how I do 'em

    Yeah, just annoying. I have no issues with them in terms of how challenging they are.

    I'd like to be able to walker a greater distance before I have to beckon. Either that or have them auto-follow until an enemy appeared.

    It would be nice to just /beckon after encounters and then they'd auto follow you. It would make the process so much quicker and more enjoyable.

    Given how easy the leves are and that they don't consume a leve allowance, I'm fine with the status quo.

    Yeah, they're pretty annoying but thankfully pretty easy, too.

    The leves I find most amusing are the ones where you have to beat an animal up and then soothe it. I occasionally /soothe primals and bosses when they are below 75% health.

    Maybe next time you should try soothing them WITH your clothes on. Might go better

    I hate these escort quests with an absolute firey passion. They're so tedious an annoying, it's like just make the NPC follow me and then let me protect it. Not make me have to use an emote every 5 yards because otherwise they're "too far away." I'd really love to smack the guy who came up with this idea, over the head, with his keyboard. Then tell him to go /beckon himself.
