World F*** Canyon Guides

PLEASE REMOVE CANYON GUIDES FROM THE GAME ITS THE WORST QUEST IT WILL ALSO DECREASE THE LAG OR ATLEAST MAKE SELUC OH WAIT I MEANT A WORTHLESS IDIOT A QUEST NPC

 

While I do agree that the quest is lackluster, and often infuriating, please read this before you post a suggestion on the forums. Many others like myself will just dismiss this as a kid at a birthday party who gets the last slice of cake.

The main problem with the Canyon Guides is simply that most escort sections in Wynncraft are one of two things; mind numbingly boring or beyond obnoxious. The only ones that aren't like this are not because they are short. All you do in them is wait for the thing you are escorting to catch up to you and then continue, often having to kill generic enemies or awful designed ones (such as a group of rapid burst fire mobs). The former was solved in UR, as the guardian now has a set path, but it becomes tedious on more runs as a result of the latter.

However, the Canyon Guides obviously does not have a set path that essentially goes uninterrupted. This adds an entire new layer of frustration because sometimes Seluc will just decide to fuck off like every toddler's attention span ever and go target some random mob near him. If a mob spawns under a bridge for example, he will just cluelessly stand there because he has targeted it and thus will try to attack it. While yes, his detection zone is pretty low, this raises another problem. If you aren't going at a relatively slow pace, he will lose track of you very quickly and, once again, aimlessly zone out. This is most notable when it comes to the rock slides, which will lead to you trying to get through them quickly to avoid them only to have Seluc somehow not notice his skull is about to be crushed because you overextended ever so slightly out of his detect range.

Unfortunately, I personally can't think of a way to fix the quest. Having a set path the NPC goes on would arguably make it even longer than before as long as Seluc isn't targeting mobs willy nilly. While this would remove the frustration levels, the quest would still be dull. If it were to be an off map area to avoid as many mobs present, it would present the problem of being prone to bugs much more often as a result of things like server restarts.

 

I would normally dismiss this as a shitpost but HOLY FUCK YES PLEASE!

 

thanks a so much

 

As much as this quest has been infuriating every single time for me, I do not agree with simply removing quests. I'd much rather have the quest tweaked and/or repurposed or rebalanced; It is not a fun quest, yes, but neither are fetch quests. But they can be remade into something more interesting.

 

I did this quest first try, but I think they should at the very least make it so that your guy is invincible or make it so that he doesn't make it his life goal to murder everything

 

I think that it's not the good way to suggest something...

 

My favorite analogy of all time. Thank you.
