Over time, we have seen increasing changes in the game, from a "simple" pkm rebalancing to the addition of new systems (TM task, for example), which has made us even more ambitious (in a good way) and made us even more competitive. And that's good. But my real purpose behind this thread is to make two suggestions like the thread's name itself already says.
Some Quests Improviment
Especially with the current and constant change on pkms movest, it is possible to realize that the way the system of some quests work, have become really easy. Not only with the increasing changes on pkms moveset, but also the way to reach a determined level to do these quests, have become much easier and faster (exp ticket system, many places to hunt etc). So, my suggestion revolves around a possible rebalancing (a little one) in relation to some quest, which after reaching the necessary level, you just have to find the way, go there, maybe kill some pkms and without much effort get some really great prizes, an example of this, TM33 Reflect.
* TM33 quest improvement suggestion
I'm about to reach level 130 in another character, and I intend soon to do this quest. One of the most important I would say. And I know of many people who, beyond to having done this quest in their main characters, are constantly creating others to do it again. What with a little effort, maybe some exp tickets (not necessarily), you can do this, even if you have few available hours during your day / week / month, you can do this.
The idea basically starts with a little revamp on the place. I did some doodles just to make the suggestion clearer.
After that, you could create a new NPC that would be the "hitch" to access Tm33. In other words, you would have to go through a primary stage, doing some tasks, collecting some dex and items, dueling with the NPC, to finally access the portal.
The context around the NPC could be, in it asking you if along the levels you have passed / reached, you have acquired the necessary knowledge regarding psychic pkms and about one of your most important and interesting skills, which is reflect. Something like that:
Player: Hi
NPC: Hello, Searcher.
Player: Mission
NPC: I have noticed that the road so far has been great for you. Finally you have found the place where one of the greatest abilities of psychic pkms is materially hidden. However, your experience so far does not mean much to access this place. For this, I have some tasks for you. Do you wish to continue?
Player: yes
NPC: Sure, which is this greatest psychic skill am I talking about?
Player: reflect
NPC: Great! Seems you know a lot about this. But even a great skill like that has its "brokenness", unfortunately. As a knower on this subject, would you able to tell me which kind of skills are capable to break reflect?
Player: brick break, phantom force, psychic fangs
NPC: Amazing! I'm almost convinced of your knowledge about this, but not totally. I wonder if along the way, you have handled these pkms (psychic) enough to access the portal. Words aren't necessarily proof, are they? Could you defeat 150 alakazams, 100 hypnos, 80 kadabras, 50 Abras and 30 Mr mime?
Obs¹: the number and pkms to be defeated are just a suggestion, you can change the numbers/pmks by the way you think is better. Till even the player/npc conversation.
*After you defeated the required pkms number ...
Player: Hi
NPC: Wow! You're back!
Player: report (maybe some exp points?!)
NPC: I'm amazed! I confess i wasn't expecting to see you soon, actually, i thought you're going to give up. Anyway, i'm seeing you've defeated those pkms which i asked for.
Player: mission
NPC: I think when you defeated those pkms, they let dropped some important things to me. 100 Psychich spoon, 100 future orb, 50 hypnotic pendulum, 15 mimic clothes and 5 mind plates, may you give me them?
Player: yes
NPC: Wonderful! I am fully convinced that you know very well about this ability materially hidden. Although convinced, I would like to invite you to a duel, and as long as we duel, I would like to show you something truly incredible. If you defeat me, I will show you the portal that will give you access to this powerful ability.
Player: duel
NPC: Are you ready for a duel of 3x3 and contemplate the incredible?
Player: yes
Obs²: In this point, I thought the duel might be 3x3 and the pkms chosen by the NPC would be: Alakazam [100], Hypno [130] and the "incredible" which NPC is talking about would be an Ancient Alakazam [100] or [130 ]. *Ancient Alakazam, could be similar to the pkms we faced against khanzo (in terms of strength, i mean). Once we have ancient gengar, would be interesting and cool to have ancient alakazam too, in this case being used in a quest.
If you defeated the NPC ..
NPC: Wow! That duel was amazing! You defeated me. Look there! The portal has been opened to you. And if I can give you an advice, be careful where you step. Good luck!
After you defeated the NPC on duel:
- It would open up the portal to you get in.
- If you die there inside, you can normally come back there, and have the portal access maybe telling: "hi, portal"
- If the portal is opened to you, nobody who hasn't done the quest can get in, even if he/she has reached 130.
Obs³: The conversation is just a suggestion, it can be shorten or lengthen.
IMO, i can't see any unfairness changing this, and can't see anything becoming hardcore after, if it would be changed. For those who hasn't done tm33 (newcomers specially) yet, will be smth really new and still more interisting (knowledge/ancient alakazam thing etc). As I said before, it would be a small "rebalancing" for this amazing quest, which gives a truly incredible prize, to follow these growing changes on the game, not being so easy, and not so hard to be done.
I would like also to suggest smth to PAnihilator 130 +, unfortunately, i can't do this now, but probably i'm gonna do this later in this same thread. I would apreciate if you as player could give your opinion and if some staff member, could give some opinion and an answer about this if it's possible, just to let to know.
