    I remember when they added those slime shoes and cracked glasses and maybe some others (never got any), the gave good incentive to experience different pqs, its nothing that would ruin nostalgia in my opinion, in fact, some, like me, might remember the old days of grinding lpq 50 times to get some glasses! What do you think?

    Really surprised that nobody has expressed an opinion on this. Maybe you could add a poll to it to find out if people are interested?

    I was thinking more like adding in an NX reward for each PQ finished.

    I was actually thinking about posting regarding this, but realized that it came after v.62, but hthat reason was counteracted by Helius saying "its nothing that would ruin noistalgia" which I completely agree with because of how underwhelming the prizes are. I will give another suggestion, since broken glasses will become the norm since other eye accessories will be far more expensive to obtain, maybe make it so you would need to do the lpq quite a few times (e.g. 30+). I really want to do lpq anyways ^_^

    But how large will that nx reward be for high level players to not grind upon it? Maybe add it only to uncommon pqs that actually take time (e.g. lpq due to the boxes stage). Because i'm sure people will head to lmpq without any extra nx award. It would also act as an incentive for players to join the recruiter when SMEGA'd

    @pokemon1188 - iirc correctly, you had to complete the pq successfully numerous times at or above a certain grade to obtain these rewards.

    Yep, I believe it was 40 times.
    The grade wasn't necessary though, completion gives it +1

    Broken Glasses would be EXTREMELY overpowered. There is no eye acc in v62 that you can get LUK/STR on, let alone all 4 stats. Perhaps if you modified them to have 0 slots, then it would be a little more reasonable.

    Also, there is nothing nostalgic about a bunch of level 150s speed running through a PQ designed for players 100 levels lower.

    I fully agree, even back in GMS days they were farmed despite the length of time required due to the amazing stats as an eye-accessory, they should be nerfed, the 0 slots was a great idea.

    I wouldn't be opposed to a 0 slot broken glasses. As it stands, LPQ (the regular 35+ one) is the only PQ that's really underutilized at the moment, because CPQ is just so much faster EXP. Broken glasses with 0 slots wouldn't be OP but would be a nice boost that would give incentive to do the PQ.

    Alternatively a 100-250 NX reward like when you kill a miniboss might not be a bad idea considering that the PQ does take 20+ minutes to do even if you know what you're doing and have a decent party.

    100-250 nx for one player goes to 17-42nx per pq per person, not really great. Unless you meant completion of the pq gives the nx.

    I'm not sure what multiplier you could have possibly used to get to those numbers, but yes I meant completion of the PQ.

    Agreed, 0 slots sounds reasonable.

    Prize alone would be nice. NX is already easy to obtain- voting, area bosses, etc. No need to add it to another PQ. I like the broken glasses, I remember having to complete over what, 100 PQs just to get it? And I like the idea of them needing to be a certain "grade"- but I dont know how those worked or were coded back then.

    How do you suggest we nerf the glasses? tbh 100 times seems a little excessive, maybe 70? Since the box stage already prevents speedrunning to be worth it lol.

    The glasses are supposed to be untradeable and nonetheless the PQ is only supposed to be done from levels 35-50. To GET the glasses you had to fully complete 35 PQs. If you disconnected during a single run, it didn't count.

    The only reason you'd see higher levels doing it for a good amount of time, if it was implemented, that content wasn't available to them at that level.
