    Exclamation I dont do dailies at all - What am I losing?

    I mean, I am all the time arenaing, leveling profession, BGing or leveling alt.
    All my money comes from all sources but daily and I am pretty rich actually.

    How much of the game am I losing? I simply cant stand doing daily.

    and I do RF and LFD actually, every now and then.

    But.. I am a rogue.

    Not really much other then coins which give you a chance for additional gear in addition to some parts of the storyline which obviously you can see via youtube. However rep unlocks ''VP'' gear other then that nothing really.

    There's no point in doing dailies if you don't intend to raid normal modes anyway.

    Coins can be obtained from pet battles in 5.2

    You are losing out on that action of doing dailies You are also losing out on any rep rewards that require dailies (you can look those up). Basically, you are losing out on about 1% of the game.

    Nothing.

    The turmoil comes from people with a disillusioned view of how MMO gear progression should be. They think that they should be valor capped on tuesday of every week, that it should only take 2 hours of faceroll heroics, and that the valor should automatically be able to buy any item without having to build rep or anything that shows you have earned it.

    In short, they want free purples.

    The Lorewalkers is fun, the rest is a brai-dead farm. You lose fast tokens and reputation. Nothing else! So it's good that you chose to do them or not.

    Given the type of content you are doing, you aren't losing out on anything, since you don't need the high item level gear for anything.

    I would give the shieldwall dailies a shot if I were you. Yeah the dailies themselves are nothing special, but the story quests you unlock during the rep farm are quite nicely done.

    Well If you're even into the story. If not: just forget about them.

    There's many sources of mounts in the game. For the JC mounts you don't need to do any dailies, all you need to do is collect serpent eggs.
    Celestials dailies are fast anyway if you only do the Red Crane and White Tiger ones. Avoid the Jade Temple and Niuzao ones, as they take ages to complete.

    If you're interested in the story, getting rep from factions and achievements, I'd say you're losing a lot, but don't feel compelled to do something you don't want, assuming you don't want lore, rep, etc.

    No point in doing things you don't like, especially on a game you like to play.

    Exalted factions for the beloved title
    Mounts for the 150 mount achieve
    Epics, valor points, coins

    Even as a PvPer myself, I been really stressed by doing golden lotus dailies on my server lately and decided to quit dailies entirely. Once there, I could count more alliance players around than quest mob itself, and I am on PvP server. Hordes dont do party to quest, they do it by themselves, and when they cant, they dont.

    Golden lotus is literally the most horrible thing ever in this entire game after that It's actually not too bad.

    That's my style of daily completion, although usually I watch a TV show/movie. I think many people that are complaining about dailies aren't used to grinding and so they don't how to do it properly.

    the only thing your missing out on when not doing dailies is the new story line added in 5.1 revolving around the horde and alliance in pandaria.

    beside that not much, except some gear you dnt really need and some mounts.

    Baradin is far worse, Molten Front second worst. I need the 36 slot gem bag recipe on a char, but just can't be bothered to grind MF for 8 weeks.

    Oh yeah I forgot about Molten front hahaha but I enjoyed it simply because it was literally fields of death since I was in a PVP server as a ROGUE; so you can see why I would enjoy it :P as for the Baradon thing yeah it was as bad so I'll agree on that.

    If your guild progresses at any decent rate then the only difference by 5.2 between people who have farmed dailies every day and those who've never touched them are the various profession recipes and the exalted mounts. Now if you guild is lagging behind then the coins may or may not be the difference between 0-14 pieces of gear. Rng god is rng though.

    You lose story, coins and rep.
    That's basically it.

    I'm barely honored with anyone except Golden Lotus and Shado-pan (Shado-pan just for ze enchant), and I haven't lost out on anything when it comes to raiding (I don't PvP).

    And to all of those who believes dailies are mandatory - They are only mandatory if you make them mandatory.
    I don't give 2 cents about coins, I'll just wait patiently for my gear while progressing in heroic content.
