Take note that I am not aware of anyone else suggesting this. I'm also aware that it would be a system that takes away the GMS like slightly but would be enjoyable for JQ lovers. In other servers I have seen an implemented NPC that warps people to JQ's. Once finishing the JQS the NPC at the finish would reward you with a currency that you could exchange for rewards. (ie: Smegas,Chairs, etc) I'm suggesting this be implemented like so. An NPC located in the FM that provides warps into JQ's (ONLY JQS) JQ's with greater difficulty would reward you with more points. (ie: Zak JQ stg 1 5 pts... Pet park 1 PT) Once collected a certain amount of points you could trade them in for rewards such as chairs and smegas. As a person who enjoys JQs I think this would be a very fun way to obtain cool chairs and other rewards which won't be determined by myself. I'm not saying the chairs would be easy to get either, they could be obtainable only by those who have truly achieved a lot of JQ Points. Anyways let me know in the comments what the community and staff thinks of this, as I think it would be a great addition to an already great server.
+1 I'm sure some people will dislike this because it "isn't nostalgic" or whatever. But I've always enjoyed jqs, even though I'm awful at them and they drive me nuts. It will give people something to do other than grind mindlessly. The only thing I suggest is that all rewards be cosmetic. Some people aren't good at jqs and this would negatively affect them. Also, You can't enter some jqs after finishing them during a quest line. So this could help people practice those jqs for events.
I wouldn't mind this. GM hosted JQ events used to be held almost daily, this could help bring back a bit of that aspect of the game while providing more in game content. I remember one time I stayed in the chimney JQ hours after everyone left just so I could finish it, even though some people were able to do it in a minute. So I think being able to do this at will, especially if you do it with other people, would be very entertaining. I agree that rewards would have to be cosmetic and would add that they should be hard to obtain and completely untradeable, like items in the donor shop.
I know the server your talking about Commerce Maple right? They actually have some cool custom content on there, +1 for implementing stuff like this
Not Commerce Maple, a different server.. Not actually sure I remember the name but It was a high rate v.83
I think some JQs should remain event-only (fitness and chimney for example). Other than that, I think it's a nice idea. +1
+1 as well! For all the JQ lovers out there, this would be a great way to engage in friendly competition
I even have this idea that there could be a ranking system. Such as keeping track of who has the most points earned overall (even if they spend them). Fighting to have that number one spot. Definitely a great way to engage in friendly competition for those who strive to be the best and for those who love JQs.
I like the idea, it'll give me something to do when I hit 200 besides quests (if I ever reach 200, it's a myth).
