I'm kind of obsessed with this idea lately, especially listening to old maple bgm tracks and swimming in the nostalgia, but: a similar group of maps to the coolie zombie maps, but just really hardcore. I spent so much time grinding there as a bandit/page/xbowman to 3rd job back in the day, when 3rd job was brand new (I remember the first bera ch1 ship ride after the zakum/3rd job update on my bandit, and seeing my first real high level, a level 80 assassin, still 2nd job of course). The wolf territory bgm is burned in my brain, it was so well done, the zombies all had great pixel art and animation, the maps were dangerous and limited (a great concept which prevents afking/leeching somewhat) the cold and poison always kept you down. I get giddy imagining a similar map and experience but just insanely more dangerous, super high hp zombies, much harder hitting/difficult to kb, more dangerous cold and poison effects and other effects, map traps similar to the og maps, safety charms won't work, etc etc. Would be so much fun to party grind here (especially if they were ulti resistant so bishops/ultis wouldn't ruin the challenge). Richie could make a debut as well, sending you out of the map similar to dodo It could be a decent ToT alternative spot to grind, the portal could replace the LHC one. I used to dream of one day having snipe to headshot them while I attempted to mow hoards of zombies down on my lil xbowman with my iron arrow shotgun, and playing this song in my head ~
