Since there was a topic about new arenas, idea: a duel arena.
It would be an arena where there's only 1 monster per round.

The point is that a much bigger percentage of players would have somewhere they can try PFUDOR at (though they need to survive the first monster while casting buffs to get something out of it), once a day.

The first arena is only one monster per round, right?

It's already the easiest in wich to try PFUDOR.

I would love to see the custom boss mob feature added to the game. Limit it to one per account, and add an outrageously expensive hath sink to make it into 2 and 3 mobs per account. The boss monster should have double scaling as compared to regular monsters and in return it should offer increased loot quality/quantity when killed. Also, limit the amount of spawned bosses scale based on difficulty.

Maxing PL makes the monster a boss?

Max PL monsters (i.e. Kodou Yuki) were already tougher than Bosses like Manbearpig from what I last remember...

Yep. Tsukiko is even worse because of being Sprite.

They do a bit more damage but thanks to unlimited potions that doesn't matter at all. Bosses take at least some time to kill still for whatever reason they give next to non exp.
E. g. RoB FSM gives less exp than a normal trash mob even though you have to deal 100-150 times as much damage(=time).

->The existing boss etc. mobs should give more xp and maybe an additional normal loot drop roll.

While it would make sense for FSM to give similar amounts to ordinary monsters, I don't think singular monsters really matter enough. As it's always been, the way to get a good amount of XP is to fight lots of monsters, for 100+ rounds.

But schoolgirl XP might be worth increasing, because End of Days and Eternal Darkness give even less XP than Trio+Tree, despite having more rounds and taking more than twice as long.

I'm not saying those mobs should give insane amounts of xp but the FSM challenge consisting of 1FSM and 3SGs giving less xp than a single medium-high pl monster is weird.

Whatever happened to the idea of a Hentaiverse Bestiary? I thought that would be cool.

How about allow players to upgrade the base stat/quality tier, gain the missed PABs and add prefixed/suffix (for non-prefixed/suffixed only) to a soulfused equipment? So that player can keep their old equipment.

To make it more attractive, make a few prefix that can only be obtained by this way. (Can't think of any yet (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/heh.gif) )

Detail:
Requirement - Max level (lv10) soul fused equipment
Method - Gain PxP via IW. The PxP for the next grow is same as 2x the lv9 -> lv10 PxP.
The equipment gain 1 of the following

1. Gain prefix or suffix if the equipment do not have it. For Superior or above only.
2. Increase the base roll by a random integer between 1-5. It can only increase the roll which could exist for that type of equipment (e.g. No Int/WIS for Plate; INT/WIS is available for Shade of Arcanist). In addition, missing PABs/stat (e.g. crit damage for old power armor, crush miti for old phase) can be obtained through this way. Hard cap is the current Leg max.
   All stats that shouldn't exist in the current drop (e.g. dex of phase) will be removed to prevent abused.
   PxP will be recalculated after the bonus applied and quality tier (e.g. average, superior, etc) will improved if the PxP is above certain value.

I think an unqualified increase would be too much. Everyone would quickly be running around in Lmax everything. Something with less exploit potential would be for that IW to instead reroll a stat. You wouldn't be able to improve already great equips - the risk of your well-rolled stats being rerolled away would be too much, unless you IWd 100 times - but you would be able to make a relatively bad equip (with one or two bad stats) into a slightly above average one. Missing PABs being replaceable sounds attractive.

FYI, 10 base roll in 0.82/0.83 is equal to 1 base roll in the old days (0.81). To make everything reach Leg max. It is even harder than make a PL 1500 monster. If the number is not right, it can always be changed.

Having the ability to upgrade an existing equipment is much better than boosting the drop rate/quality. At least you can get upgrade for sure. In addition, you do not need to worry about spending too much on auction/forge as the item will not be useless right after a new patch. (10B liked to increase the base roll of the equipment every few patch. I have salvage and bazaar many thing due to this reason. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/anime_cry.gif) )

Suggestion: in the gift message of monster lab, can we have a total count of all gifts?

Instead of account-binding bazaar buys, add a chance to get the RiddleMaster.

If the first person to attempt to buy gets a captcha and one or more other people click to buy before they finish it, queue the buy attempts and give the equip to the earliest person to click Accept who was not disqualified by failing to solve a riddle.

Instead of stamina loss, people who blow their riddles get an increasing penalty delay added to their buy attempts, plus more frequent captchas.

Just my 2cents.. I would rather have 10b work on something worthwhile than that convoluted system. (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

Agree.

0.84, so we will have an idea of what will be good long-term investments sooner (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Lurking the bazaar for resellable items was about as interesting as this game ever got. It's not "convoluted", it's an exact analog of the existing captcha system. All the buyer would see is whether they got it or not; the rest is just a minor implementation detail that needs to be specified somewhere.

Post 0.84 you will still never have any way to predict what will be a safe long-term investment or how long it will last.

From a developer's standpoint, it's complicated to implement such a system to make real-time decision around multiple players's nearly simultaneous actions (aka why there's no pvp)

From a player's standpoint, nobody wants it. It doesn't give any bonus or provide any new gameplay.

Yep it's convoluted, and pointless.

From a developer's standpoint

LOL

dude, mechafujoshi is likely one of the cleverest software architects around here

can we get more than 1 HG for salvaging leg grade equip , tenb (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

maybe 2 HG for leg and 3 HG for peerless (IMG:[invalid] style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
