Less Parkour...

...Because parkour sucks. Why must there be parkour in every dungeon and almost every quest? I'll acknowledge that I'm apparently awful at it, so I don't enjoy it, but it would be nice if we didn't have to encounter it constantly. I'm about ready to /kill out of the Undergrowth Ruins and ditch the rest of the keys because parkour+slime blocks+invisiwalls+clouds (which yeah, I know, I can shut off) obscuring the view+lag=well nigh impossible for me. I've completely stopped fighting key guardians because I don't want any more dungeon keys because parkour. For goodness' sake, can I possibly be the only one who feels this way?

 

It isn't constantly, and even then tge parkour isn't that hard (I am not that good at it either). If your main reason is UR dungeon, I agree, one of the parkour is terrible, but still somehow manageable.

Also you don't have to do the dungeon if you get a key. You can save them until later or sell them

Add a poll

 

I assume you meant "the parkour isn't that hard for you," because I'm sure you wouldn't just say it's not hard for everyone, based on your own personal experience. I said it's hard for me, and so I don't enjoy it, and I asked if I could be the only one who feels this way. As for its not being constant, please let me know which dungeons don't include any parkour? Those are the ones I will keep my keys for. And as I mentioned, it's been in almost every quest I've done, as well. I got to the second parkour of UR, and after attempting it two dozen or so times, did end up doing a /kill to get out of it, as I don't enjoy doing the same thing over and over again, hoping that at some point I won't completely fail. I keep hoping that as I do it, I'll get better at it, and enjoy it more, but that's not happening. And let's face it, I play games because I want to enjoy myself.

Don't know how to add a poll. Don't know how to sell dungeon keys. At this point, they're just taking up precious space in my bank. But it will still be a shame that there will be major parts of this game that I just can't partake of.

ETA: figured out the poll thing. I'll be looking forward to the results. I'd love to know if I really am an outlier on this.

 

I meant it isn't hard in general, since not many people complained (though there were some)
But sure, it isn't that hard for me (in most cases)

I can't answer to that question, sorry.

Please read this guide. It should help you with this and other things.

Do you have any alternative to parkour in mind? Or you just want to remove it?

 

Gl with EO parkour I feel your pain with UR

 

Just look straight down and use shift a lot

 

I personally am fine with EO parkour but I see where everyone else struggles

 

Thanks for the link. Didn't find anything in there about selling dungeon keys, though. Could trade them, I suppose, if in fact they are tradable, and if anyone actually wanted to pay for them. Have to say that I wouldn't, and not just because I don't like the parkour in the dungeons, but because I can get them easily enough by doing quests and defeating key guardians.

I did find this in that guide, though, on the omnipresence of parkour in dungeons: "Dungeons often contain a mixture of combat and parkour." So I checked the wiki pages for each dungeon...

Spoiler

There is parkour in every dungeon in the game.

So, no, I don't have a suggestion for an alternative. I would just like to see less of a dependence on it in the design of the game. Often, it doesn't even make sense in a storyline sort of way, but rather it's just as though it's there because of the idea that there has to be a parkour section to each task.

 

Parkour is fun

 

The only complaint I've had was the AJF parkour because it was lagging really bad for me my first time and I didn't bounce half the time, and I suck enough that the other half ended just as bad. EO parkour makes me cry every time I go through, but that's just because I suck, and I do actually like it. Other than that a few of the slime block parkour courses are annoying with lag, but honestly they're some of my favorite if the connection is fine.

 

i'm not patient enough so i just fly through it lol

 

this is my new signature

 

I quit and never play undergrowth dungeon because I stuck at slime block parkour for over half an hour. That dungeon need to have a timer that automatically teleport people if they stuck there for a long time. Not every people know how to parkour, and I choose archer when playing that dungeon. Even with speed 3, I still couldn't pass the slime block parkour.

 

I do see multiple players struggle in parkour when playing, so you're definitely not alone. My advice would be to try to use the spells to your advantage or to be as patient as you can.

I remember playing with a player who was pretty bad at parkour (as well as a new Minecraft player), they took a long time to finish the parkour in the Infested Pit Dungeon.
Maybe making another path other than the parkour for those who simply don't like parkour or are bad at it or has plenty of lag might be the best answer.

I remember in the Beta where lots of players struggled to do the EO parkour (It was both funny and sad). There were 4 phases, the fourth one got changed but that wasn't enough so they removed it. There are only 3 phases now.

 

I wish the fourth phase stayed I like the EO parkour

 

UR/CUR parkour is really fun, I would like to see more of it

After one or two runs the EO parkour isn't that hard anymore, you can just run through it.

Wynn parkour is most of the time on the easier side, and you can always use spells to skip large portions of it.

 

It is, but it is (especially the second one) hard for some people

 

no
cur parkour is bad because it relies on low ping
and you can’t even skip it with movement spells

i like eo parkour though

 

You actually can skip parts with movement spells, the first parkour is 100% skippable, the second one has skippable parts but I'm not so sure about the third one.

I rarely have any lag problems with CUR and my ping isn't that low either.
