    nahh, this quest is by far the hardest on the server, and the prize is not the best u can get AT ALL, want a hard one, challenging, but FUN? got some ideas:
    IDEANO1: for zak :kill 1 of each boss until lvl 80(mano,stumpy,king klang,faust,mushmom,...until jr balrog)for a lvl 50-80(who are the ppl who uusaully starts the quests) its gonna be challengig, hes gonna travel around the whole world(fun for noobies, and nostalgic for old players)
    ideano2: something like: quest name "el nath slayer": 1 stack(100) of each monster drops in el nath(theres around 30 species of mobs in el nath, and nobody remembers them), what do u think?

    I like the idea of still having a reason to do JQ's if we were to go down this route.

    Maybe it can be a "Complete X amount of times" type of thing, where an NPC will just take you to the end of the JQ if you've completed it and have showed you "mastered" it.

    git gud.

    The game is already way too easy to play, the bosses are pretty much punching bags where you hold one key down until they die. Jump quests at least make you look at the screen.

    You can try propose the quest after thinking up of the details

    But I believe the Admins would want tougher difficulty, to make players prefer the jump quest over the alternate quest in terms of time

    Do take a look at this thread then, regarding Zakum Jump Quest difficulty

    I took a look at the thread crimson posted. I've been thinking about this subject more and moar and I honestly think jumping is a premiere feature in this game. Unlike other games, Maplestory actually has a purpose behind jumping. Games like WoW or FF14 literally only have jumping as an aesthetic thing, and nothing else. Sure you can jump, but does it give you an advantage? Are there quests where it's absolutely necessary? No. This is something unique to Maplestory (as far as I know).

    I really like the idea that you have to do this particular feat ( Zakum's JQ) in order to get an end-game piece of gear. For many classes, the zhelm is an integral part of the progression, and the fact that you can get it so early with some jumping prowess should be rewarded. Having a separate quest that takes forever to complete, for people that have accessibility issues like that one user that was color-blind, could be the way around it, but I would say these items should be untradeable so as not to create an economy around "Zakum Quest Drops".

    JQ's are part of what makes MS special, and I think the feeling of accomplishment you get from completing one goes hand in hand with the overarching theme of the game: progression! You play more, you get better.

    Just my two cents....again....

    For Zakum Helm, I believe the demand of it will be lesser if Targa & Scarlion helmet are released
    Note: Of course there are jobs that still must do Zakum to unlock skills such as Triple Throw, but that would be a entirely different discussion about locked skills behind bosses

    Regarding the untradeable items, I like the current setup as I don't want to make the items 100% untradeable, would be good if they can farm in advance or with help of buddies / guildmates.

    I don't think there's gonna be an economy around "Zakum Quest Drops" since the quest is so complicated

    Oh wow. I just saw Targa hat. That this is beast. Even then it's a level 90 hat, and I really like that you can get zhelm super early if you put in some work.

    Thanks for helping me understand the full scope of this :)

    Thanks for ur opinion,il also like a link to the thread u takin about :).the only thing I notice that nobody understands like me, is the difficulty of the jq, the alternative zakum quest, as I said is ridiculous, because it is MUCH more difficult, than the jq, for me the jq are not intrinsically difficult, only that for some is ridiculously easy (in gms one of my friends made the jq to everyone else in 1 or 2 attempts and in a matter of 5 minutes), for others a challenge, and for others terribly frustrating. Is like asking someone to speak in Chinese. If you are Chinese, it is going to be a joke, if you are Korean or Japanese, it will be difficult, but you can do it, but if you are Latin American, it is frustrating and really difficult, that is, the difficulty is not really the game, It depends entirely on you. Anyway my goal is to know the opinion of the people, for which I appreciate urs

    No it's not challengin anyways it's just simplifying, running away from the difficulty.

    I bet you run away from math too :D

    How to you even expect people to take you seriously?

    I'm so shaking my head right now

    dont make me mad

    The Zakum Alternate Quest is meant to help players with issues such as color blindness
    Please do read the threads I shared, before saying stuff like math

    If you gonna say a handicapped person, like a blind person avoid games that requires sight
    Something is wrong with you

    My point is this server being about nostalgia and restrict so much to the point that nl's can only recharge furys in NLC.

    Do you really think they would just remove jump quests?
    It's a low rate server.
    Not suposed to be easy.

    Don't make this game worse.

    This topic is actually retarded, i vote no.
