So I remember people used to do lmpq a lot back in old source but after it got nerfed nobody really do it anymore. Now even if it got a buff it won't change much because there is cpq and there are simply too many PQs at 2nd job levels. On the other hand there are pretty much no PQs at lvl 100+ (aside from cwkpq/apq etc which are not really meant for leveling) forcing people to buy leech if they want to lvl fast. I suggest changing lmpq from 51-70 to something like 100-119 (cause if you include 120 mages could break the PQ with their ultimates). The mobs will be similar to the old ones but stronger. For example zombies can be replaced by himes (both are small and can be healed, himes are just stronger), jr yeti and chronos can be replaced by something like death teddy and the big yeti (relatively weak mobs), tauros can be replaced by strong mobs like the gatekeeper/thanatos from ludi dungeon. I'm not sure what the flying aliens can be replaced with, only strong flying mobs I know are the wyverns from HT (or neo tokyo overloads which are too strong) The exp can also be something like 1.5-2m exp per PQ, potentially beating petri leech if you can do each PQ in like 3 minutes. However it will take some time to find people and some PQs might be slower. This will both give an alternative to leech and also make ludi more popular cause it's kinda sad it's so empty nowadays
I agree with you on every argument you make, but i still feel uncomfortable with any thing that isn't true to nostalgia. Gotta admit that this server has nothing to do with nostalgia at all though. Guess it's a yes from me.
Can't wait to hear about all the 300 int NLs in lmpq slowing runs down lel. But all in all a fun suggestion
I like this post because it considers the effects on the economy. If LMPQ becomes a viable EXP source from level 100-119, less people will grind/leech at certain mobs. Would it affect prices of certain equips and scrolls (by a lot)? Would this be a good or bad thing?
A large portion of the people that regularly buy leech are funded player, that usually have another charater, these sort of players are usually too lazy to bother with playing on the actual new character, and would rather pay for leech and keep playing normally on their current main. Mid lvl leeching won't go anywhere unless the maze pq would be disgustingly better than petri leech, im talking twice as much exp on a fast team. This change would help the newer players avoid the leeching path, and rush to 4th while interacting with the community. Big + in my book
