Daily Skirmish quest

I have a couple Daily Skirmish quests in the Quest list. However I can only access one of them in the Queue. Is there another way to access Skirmishes?

    Hello, I encountered the same problem. I had 1/2 "Defend the temple" and then it became impossible to queue for it once I leveled up.
    I can currently only queue for "the pit fight". On the other hand even with 2/2 Pit fight completed, I cannot turn in the daily any more.
    I also tried abandoning the daily, taking it again and completing the skirmishes and I still cannot turn it in.

    Sadly this is the way the queues work and, unlike dungeons, currently you cannot manually enter a skirmish. I think both of you however have hinted on something that would make sense: Changing the daily quest from 'do X skirmish Y times' to 'do X number of skirmishes'.

    Yes, changing from x/y times to just x times may provide a solution, and grant an amount of AD for the total number completed when talking to Rhix afterwards (on a sliding scale so the more you can finish before you talk to Rhix the more you get). Other options:
    1) aprovide a "no XP gain" option (players choice) for a skirmish - I leveled during a skirmish and after finishing the skirmish I wasn't able to do any more of that particular one and hence only had 1/2 for the Daily, with this option I could better manage my leveling. Provide this option for only the first two levels of the player beyond the skirmish range to assist in reducing farming.
    2) allow any skirmish at any player level at any time. The Skirmish Queue engine will probably(?) have to be modified so that it builds groups whose player levels are within 4 levels (or so) of each other (today I suspect this isn't the case since you can only select certain Skirmishes based on your current level).

    Just watch the level needed for the skirmish and do it before you hit 2 levels above it.(or even 1 above for some I think). Also, when you outlevel a certain skirmish the daily for the next one opens up, so there really isn't much of a problem there.

    I just had a daily that required me to do the skirmish 3 times. It was impossible to do without out-leveling it in the process. Personally, I think the answer is making the level spread wider for queuing. I wouldn't want to see level 60's doing a level 20 dungeon or skirmish, but some of these are pretty frustrating. I was in two queues each for Mad Dragon and the Wolf Den, and all of them failed on the boss because the queue doesn't really build the best teams. If it allowed for higher levels, maybe some of those would have been winnable. I understand that I could always get a group together for the dungeons at least and bypass the queue, but doesn't that defeat the purpose of even having queues? I don't want to hang around the entrance waiting for a party to get together.
