I've been working on Oracles and Ogri'la rep every day and have about four days to go. One thing I've noticed about these older daily quests is that there is little provision for high-level players that one-shot everything. Two quests in particular stand out as being annoying until you learn the high-level trick.
The first is Banish More Demons in Blade's Edge. This involves placing a portal on the ground then killing demons within a few feet of the portal. The portal has a one-minute cooldown and you need fifteen demons. It was a slow exercise in frustration because kiting further-away demons was difficult sue to all my abilities one-shotting them before they got near.
In the end, I learned to use the Shaman's "Purge" ability to aggro mobs without killing them and pull them close to the portal.
The second, and more annoying, quest that isn't scaled for high-level players is the Ogri-la's Song of Wind and Water. This involves weakening a mob then "consuming" it before it dies. The problem is that I can't use any of my regular abilities as you get places in a "vehicle" with only four buttons, all of which one-shot the enemy.
I finally learned the trick - autoattack the mob and spam the third ability on your keyboard at the same time. A single autoattack will usually take the mob down to 2% or so and if you are quick enough, you can then consume the mob before the next swing.
Doing this old content is reasonably fun but these particular two sets of dailies are less-so. I'm looking forward to four days from now when I won't need to do them any more.
