I think missions/rites were one thing always promised to be reworked - but so far not much happened. I can see the new Silan and Welcomer missions to be better crafted, yet the mindless map markers have been introduced with them.
I think it is rather difficult to find this exact way between frustration and amusement. Even for the most obvious hint you need usually some knowledge of the area / game.
With this we are back to the basic problem of any game/mmo: Motivation.
Not too hard, not too easy. I'm struggling myself with solutions here, been thinking alot abou this issue. Yet no real ideas so far
