Dave IsemingerIn BW1 on the quest list there was a way to see the cool down/count down period until a repeatable quest could be started again. Does such a countdown clock exist in BW2? If not could the devs think about adding that? I just can't remember when I completed a quest and how much longer until I can do it again.

Jennifer ChangThere is no countdown meter for repeatable quests as far as I know but I'd love if there was one!

Ben StrijkerWhy do you need a countdown?
It is 20 hours before you can re-do the quests. I play everytime just after the reset of DJArts tokens. I got then full energy, full small packs and a cup of coffee beside me. It is 9 o'clock in the morning for me then ^^ start all the quests commence wacking and turn in the quests. And the next morning (for me then) I can start again with all the quests. |

Marleen LarikI don't have such a regular day - I travel a lot for work across continents (or visit family which is also distributed across continents) so I'm in different timezones all the time. Even when I'm in my own home I sometimes work night shift.
The other thing is that sometimes I get to start, but not finish a daily quest as I run out of energy; I finish the quest later during the day and then I have to keep meticulous record of exactly which quest I finished at what time so I can come back the next day and get the new quest(s) early. The countdown clock of BW1 was super-useful to me and I miss it greatly. |

RaymondPeople need countdown timer(s) because tere are a whole lot of different things that one needs to keep track of.
1. When you can next use a friend Energy Pack, but you can see that just by trying. 2. When you can next buy energy using gold and gems, sure there is a countdown timer for that but you have to use up all your energy to see that. 3. When you can next send out requests for Energy, but you can see that by trying if you don't mind waiting for the consistent inability to talk to the server. 4. When your farm is ready, and the Developers added a timer for this because even they see the need. 5. When there is another daily quest in the upper left part of your Commons, yes, go there and look but why have to. 6. When there is another daily quest in the store, again you can check if you have the time to map warp just to go looking. 7. When the next Pet quest is available, sure, go and look, but why have to. 8. When the next daily quest in the oh what was that, somewhere on the second island. 9. When you can next help your friends farms, sure even this you can find out by trying. 10. When you can next request items for your trinkets, again you can find out by trying, but again why should we have to go everywhere and try when in their other games each and every repeatable quest or thing had a countdown timer telling you when you can next do it. 11. I bet there are at least 3 other things I'm not remembering, not including Event quests. I timed it, due to the absolute slowness of walking around or map warping around, to do all this took me over 15 minutes. Mostly because I have to get out of full screen mode because it causes locks ups requiring a complete reload. I have to use full screen mode because I'm on a tiny netbook, but I have to get out of full screen mode to do just about anything. Oh and in checking all this one yesterday while driving someone to the airport, I forgot to check the Pet one and used all my Energy before remembering and seeing that there was a quest there, and one that takes at least 2 full bars of energy to complete. |

Noemi PomerleauJust confirming what Bill said - it's on the list. We know a lot of people would like a timer for the daily quests.
