I didnt find this daily to be too bad, can find 2-3 orbs that are close to each other in easy to reach places and just take them, then wait a few seconds for respawn and repeat several times. It is annoying not to be able to control the direction when falling though.

I never said you needed to use the extra action button for fast landing to get the items. You need it to become floaty. You have to be floaty to be able to count as collecting the orb. If I just leapt through the orb without it, it did not clock off.
The fast landing button is needed when you start floating off Korthia and are going to drop to your death.

You activate the wings with the button 
if you press it again it will do a warrior style leap smash to the floor.
Did this one although was not a fan of it - positive was that the orbs respawned quickly so could repeat the easy ones.
… there was one easy one right next to the edge and I had a few squeaky butt moments thinking the glide is not going to stop in time - fortunately I survived

i quit the quest, bloody horrible design
So I had to go and see. I tried one, saw what was happening, Abandoned.

WHY do they do this? They KEEP doing it. You would think they would have learned from the flying wall monstrosities in Legion. You would think they would have learned again from the illusionary flower-hops in Bastion - that are STILL bugged, though not as badly (and how did the originals of those get through any QC, anyhow? They obviously didn’t work. At all.)
WHAT is WRONG with them? Is this some kind of passive-aggressive revenge for all the recent criticism? Like "we weren’t going to release this one, but if you’re going to be mean …

I don’t think I’ve seen any puzzle quests in SL. I really liked the ones in Nazjatar - the uncrossing lines and bejewelled type quests.

GW2 puzzles did these things much better.
Yeah just done it, awful. One to skip in the future.

What do you mean the usual? Fun? You need to fall of edges to catch stuff mid air, and you have to do it one by one… Where’s the fun in there? There are some cool dailies in Korthia. Some are the same as always, this quest, imo, and in most other people’s opinion sucks, based on this thread, and on global Korthia chat. But feel free to enjoy it mate =)

I’m genuinely curious which korthia daily you guys find great. the one where you have to kill 10 mobs or the ones where you click on 8 items?
if you’re going to rely on this echo chamber formed by a vocal minority then I’ll just claim the silent majority is enjoying it and hence not coming on the forum to seek out such threads.
I play games to overcome new challenges and I’m starting to think I’m a different species than those on this forum who complain about literally any content that involves more than shooting crap at health bars until they disappear

I stuck to the low ones you can grab with a jump and icon click. Grouped at the time and alas they don’t count so everyone needs to do the 10. Decent respawn times though so rinse and repeat without needing to go climbing.

You’re forgeting the one we hop on to the construct to kill the elite, or the one where we have to catch lightnings and then run around on a crazy mount killing things. Those are fun to me. Regarding this daily specifically, is it challenging? Or is it just challenging for your species? There’s nothing challenging about that daily, the mechanics are simply “not well thought out”. If you want challenging content, raid, do m+, PvP. Dailies are not to be challeging, they’re to be fun, and easy to do. I grant it, they tried something different, but imo, and for most of the written feedback (you know what silence usually means right?) they failed, and this particular daily is not fun.

feedback is always negative because nobody comes to the forum just to tell blizz they did a good job.
the elite construct one is like killing any other rare. hoping to get a tag before a dozen players descend on it like locust. I’ve never gotten more than one hit into it so I wouldn’t know how engaging it is.
the “mechanics” of the flight quest work perfectly fine if you have enough mental capacity to bind the item and the extra action button. it took me less time to do than a regular quest and even fooled around a bit.
my take on dailies is they should be a bit challenging when you see them the first time, but as you get used to it you’ll finish them way faster and with less effort than the dumb grindy ones which always take the same amount of time.
watching you guys confirms a suspicion I’ve had for quite a while: there’s a part of this game’s community who doesn’t like playing games
PS: just in case this thread catches the attention of someone at blizz by some miracle. good job with this quest. I’d like to see more like this
First thing, nowhere in my comments did you saw I found the daily hard to do, or that I skip it. It also doesn’t matter that it takes less or more time to complete. It’s a daily, and I did it. The elite one maybe you’re in a high pop sever (don’t know) Usually I kill it alone, so it’s fun to me.
Second thing, you need to get of your high horse mate. Just because some (or most) people don’t like something you like, and putt into a written post, doens’t let you know jack squat about the community or if they do or do not like to play the game. I’m not obligatted to like the same things you do like, neither are you, but I’m not here telling you you’re a better player or like WoW more than me because of it. Don’t go and make assumptions based on a post forum. It doesn’t suit you and most of the times you’ll be incorrect.
Third thing, with all said and done, it’s ok for you to think dailies should be challeging, or a bit challenging. I don’t agree. I (and a lot of people) don’t have that much time to play the game, and if I’m “persuaded” to do some content on the game, than I rather it be fun and fast, than challeging, which 99% of the dailies, maw events, etc, are. For challenges we have other aspects on the game, which require you to be more focused, and to have a bit of skill to do (for the most part), like the ones I mentioned previously.

I hated this quest Was even worse when you fly and land you jump right in a group of enemies Or you fly off a cliff and die 
This daily was so fun, I loved it.
