World Time Scrolls (a Way To Replay Quests!)

Hi everyone! Ninjustice here. Today I have a unique idea that would allow you to replay quests for fun. Introducing Time Scrolls! Using a scroll of such warps time in a specific area! There will be a merchant in Ahmsord that sells it for 1eb each.

How would you replay a quest?
You would go to the starting NPC of the quest and right click on him/her/it with the scroll in your inventory. The dialogue will then be started. The chat and Quest Book will say: Quest Replay Started. Also, replaying a quest will not lower your % of quests complete.


What Happens when the Replayed Quest is finished?
To prevent repeatedly farming a quest, no xp, emeralds or any other rewards would be given. The quest book status would say "finished" once again.
————————————————
This would allow players to
re-experience the fun of a quest without having to start a new character. However, it would not benefit the player as no rewards are given.

Thanks for Reading!

 

Interesting idea!

I doth approve

 

I think that this idea kinda ruins the feeling that you actually helped an npc. I think it would break the atmosphere but it could be fun to be able to do it though. I am not sure.

 

inb4 accidentally restarts ToA or Qira Hive....

 

I think it's a nice idea, but they should cost different amounts for easy / medium / hard quests, and the rewards shouldn't totally be removed, but give 50% less each time you complete it (only emeralds and experience).

 

Thanks! I feel that it should only be for fun. 50% less XP can still be farmed like crazy. There isn't really a point of having different costs for Easy/Med/Hard if there is no reward.

 

How would you deal with quests that need a quest item?

 

To be honest I don't really like this idea. It doesn't make much sense in-world for you to walk up and show someone what's pretty much a warrant, then they suddenly want to reenact all of this for you- "Yo, Amadel, I killed you already but can you just, uh, patch yourself up a bit and pop back over to the excavation site?"

 

True, the storyline and continually is a problem. Maybe it's a scroll that warps time? Idk lol

________________________________

Maybe make it so that it wouldn't require the item?? Idk. Any ideas?

 

I find this quite good, but as other have said, there are holes in the system. Easiest solution? Have a cave/portal/room in Ahmsord, that you must complete a quest to use. Once you have completed the quest, you may now redo certain quests, with more becoming available as you redo more. Once you redo a quest, a minor emerald reward is granted based on difficulty.

To clarify, not all quests will be available at first, only those without prerequisites. Those with prereqs will become available when their prereqs are finished. This would also enhance the feeling of time travel, as you would no longer be walking up to Amadel and asking him to remake himself, you'd be revisiting your memories in a dark room.

 

oh so you replay a quest made for level 40s as a level 100 that would be really fun and not pointless and a waste of emeralds and time

 

There's always the above option. It'll save money and provide a purpose, while still keeping in sync with the backstory. Besides, it'll all be optional - you don't have to redo ToA in "your memories" if you don't want to.

 

i know i wouldnt have to redo anything if i didnt want to but wouldnt you want developers to work on making new quests instead of making the old quests re-playable?

 

I'd love more quests, but I really don't see why there's anything problematic about the whole replayable-for-nostalgia thing. Eventually, the quests are released will be done, and people will want to replay them, as well as play the new quests released after those ones.

 

I thought this was about going to future Selchar or somthin...

 

If we had this, we could help other players that haven't beaten the quests before like Craftmas Chaos! We can't warp to help kill Santa ;-;
