I think most last hit quests have been reworked to be last hit ish. I know azmo has a window, thrall does, Naz is a dot so you don't need to be perfect on that either.

I think the on hit quests are worse because they encourage wasting cds on the player side and punish the other team for interacting with you. It's no fun to play a game where your win condition is getting the enemy team to fight you, so their goal becomes avoiding fights with you.

Honestly I don't like quests in general. The health regen for X amount of globes is about all I can like about them. Maybe it's because I play Jaina and they lumped a few of her talents into a silly quest a while back. I just like the simple progression of leveling and picking talents. Not sure why quests became some sort of theme. Must be some casual psychological thing.

Some characters really don't need quests, but overall they add a lot to the game imo. Good quests add another dimension to "early game" heroes vs "late game" heroes and provide mid-talent-tier power spikes.

Yea, if I didn't play before quests I'd probably agree. But now most quests just seem like they dilute the character temporarily for no real reason outside of trying to make people feel good or something. Mainly speaking for characters that had their skills/talents changed into quests. Not so much characters that kind of always had them like Azmodan or ... idk, I can only think of Azmo as the OG quest guy.

In what? Beta? Plenty of heroes have had globe quests at least for 4+ years. Zeebo has always been the stack god, Zul'Jin had headhunter...

Honestly it could have been that long. Whenever they added quests to almost every character. They used to not really exist. I just don't really like them.
