DoH leves/Guild marks - PLEASE FIXFollow

I always get at least 1 level 20 leve per day as alchemy myself
granted, I "must" be in Uldah to get them

However, as far as not being able to see mark rewards, I 100% agree that needs fixing. I have my own thread about it too. Right now it is really hard for crafters to get any kind of specialized training before level 30, and only because at 30 youll have 2 quests thatl get you 5k total points.
The low low low low low drop rate on marks is just way too low for crafters.

I agree that it would be nice if we could see beforehand if the leve is going to grant marks or not, but at the same time right now for me it wouldn't make much difference. I take all 20+ leves I can get my hands on for the free skillups, but once I get to about rank 30-32 or so I would imagine that even rank 20 leves would seem a little unappealing but I'll still pick them up anyways because maybe there will be some marks to be earned from them.

I know there are some people who are getting all kinds of guild marks for their DoH of choice and I'm happy for them. But at the same time a lot of these people are competition for me, and a system handing out rewards at random (much less rank appropriate leves) in such a way that some people can be working on their third or fourth training book and I'm still 1800 marks away from my first, it's broken.

I was offered no rank 20+ armorer levequests for my rank 26 armorer after Saturday morning's reset. I was offered two after yesterday's reset. I failed one of them. I'd much rather the system offer a smaller amount of guild marks far more frequently than offer what it does at the rate that it does just to give me the sense that I'm actually progressing towards something. A week and a half with no marks at all is very discouraging, especially when you're hearing about the luck others are having.

I thought I had it bad by being awarded marks once by rank 22. 7 ranks and 600 marks? Good gravy.

I've completely given up on marks. Ignoring it saves me worlds of frustration.

I've been noticing that when I go to pick up regional leves that some resets there are no Gladiator marks to be had at all but 3-4 leves through all three cities that offer guild marks for one specific class (ie. some days it would be awfully sweet if I actually cared about guild marks for my Pugilist). I think local leves work the same way. I've got 3 DoH classes above 20 now, with another at 19 and as a result, I tend to do a lot of 20+ leves and it's rare for me to go two resets without seeing marks; it's just an issue of which class that is getting them. One benefit is that their appear to be a lot of cross-class training books you can get (ie. cobbling, glovemaking, etc.) so it's not a total waste to be getting leatherworker or weaver marks, but it does nothing for people trying to focus on one class, or people who dabble a bit in all but only have one class able to reliably complete 20+ leves.

And frankly, I'm awfully tired of traveling to all three cities on reset day just to see if there are rank 20+ armorer leves to be had. It's a phenomenal time sink and it has never paid off for me in terms of guild marks.

I still haven't gotten even 1 alchemist guild mark since my R20 quest. This sucks. I just want poisoning training. I wish that the R20 quest gave enough marks so that one could get at least 1 training book.

Still haven't gotten 1 alchemy guild mark since the R20 rank quest.

very nice to see I am not the only, nor the worst hit by this. I have managed to accrue 922 points beyond my rank quest and I hit every city reset. Well I did, now I accept the fact that SE hates me personally and wishes horrible things on my crafting career (lol ok little over dramatic there.) But for real it is very discouraging to see that there seems to be 2 classes those that are getting and those that are not, and how do I switch teams lol

Have to say this is starting to frustrate me heavily now and really hoping for some kind of change in the update this week.

Its a three point issue thats the most galling....

1 Not being able to see the marks when selecting the leve
2 Not being able to stack to increase like DoL, DoW, DoM can
3 Being offered random leves which means you are lucky to get Rank 20+ ones in the first place.

Why is the DoW / DoM / DoL system so much better (admittedly DoL not having rank 20's in all areas is sucky but is already being addressed)

I'm really worried this is not going to be addresses in the coming update and will be a real blow as trying to get just one ability is painful, let alone the several that most people want. The only saving grace is the nice overlap between the various crafting classes on abilities, which for me wanting to level several crafting classes is a nice touch.

I didn't realize that this was an issue. I figured that it would be the same as the DOM and DOW. Being a FSH, BOT, and ALC, this really has me concerned. They really need to fix this, I'm really not going to have fun when my alc gets to twenty, much less my other DOH and DOL jobs.

SE - I still haven't gotten any alchemy marks. I get over 50 on my alchemy leves and still nothing - meanwhile my friend got 17 on his R15 weaver leve and got guild marks. Can you please just show marks as a reward (along with the required score?)

Something like:

reward:
Coerthas Carrots X12
50+ appraisal 300 culinarian guild marks

would be very nice.

Honestly - WHY can't DoH have the same ability to choose leves with guildmark rewards that EVERY OTHER discipline has - especially since it can be argued that mark-bought abilities are more important to DoH than any other discipline.

Then they should show the marks. Period. EVERY OTHER DISCIPLINE gets to see whether a leve has marks or not. Why do DoH get screwed - especially since marks are MORE important to DoH than any other class?

I still haven't gotten 1 book.
