Count in another vote, then. It's vaguely worded, and I got frustrated more than once with that quest.

Ditto on that quest. I searched forever, as well.

I hated the Tribunal quests, just going down into the sewers, period. Always got lost; was afraid to Recall out in fear of losing my place in the quest. Plus I had a packrat so if I did Recall out he'd get left behind.

I hate that kind of quests you have to wander around the whole island. I always wait for at least two quests that force me to run to one region.

Escorting people.

That's never bothered me, because it's a lot like having a companion along. Just like a companion, you have to worry about having a colleague who will kill you inadvertantly with spells, but otherwise, it's a benefit--more firepower against enemies, and you can choose your route.

But each to their own.

My most hated missions are the ones where you go to the person, and they're like, "Go here and do this. Then come back for more orders." You know those ones? I really hate those... I also hate escorting people, because I run and jump and swim really fast and can hold my own against a stinking worm, but they can't. So I have to babysit them, and while I'm babysitting them, they decide to kill me with a spell or an axe or anything they can get their grubby little hands on... ::takes a deep breath:: I used to enjoy the companionship, when I was like, level 5. But now it's just a nuisance.

I also *really* hate the escort missions...

They might be a bit more interesting if the various NPCs in question had something interesting to say but like most of the NPCs in the game they have about as much personality as a limp noodle...

I hated the Bloodmoon quest of going to the *sacred* stones and having to do a freakin' annoying quest, it just took me so long to find them and do the quests (1 hour per stone).

I agree with you on that i must have walked right past the earth stone about 96 times and when i finally found it i was ready to rip the box from the wall.

More firepower... yeah right, coming from naked nords who can't even hold their own against a mudcrab. (yes, I'm serious, I once ran too far ahead and couldn't find my naked nord. When I finally found him he was too close to death to rescue) They won't inadvertantly kill me with spells, because few of my escorts can harm anything, let alone me. I get a companion that is a thousand times weaker than me (I think I won't have trouble killing most companions on level 5). I don't worry about dying when I'm alone because I can't lose, and if I do lose I run like hell, no one can catch me. But none of those stupid escorts know how to break from a fight, nor do they know any intervention spells. They deplete your magicka by constantly forcing Heal Companion, and they get stuck so easily it's common to spend fifteen minutes just figuring how to release them. Morrowind seems to unstuck NPCs that are stuck, but this doesn't always work, and you can't travel at all fast because of that. It's not that bad if you're just passing through the Ascadian Isles or Bitter Coast, or when you can take transport, but it's a ****ing pain if you're travelling through the Ashlands.

One escort mission almost totally destroyed my fondness of Argonians and slaves.
