Profession Bomb Party Queue [Profession Improvement / General QoL]

One major problem in the profession is the accessibility of profession bombs. It's not easy to find a world with prof bombs, and even if you find one (or get notified on the #bombs_and_events discord channel), it's difficult to get into the world (especially without Champion rank).

So, this suggestion, Profession Bomb Party Queue, makes it a lot easier to get into the world with prof bombs.



Overview
This system makes prof bombs more accessible, by allowing multiple people to pay emeralds little by little to activate prof bombs.

This system activates 20 minutes of prof bombs when people pay enough emeralds to buy a Silverbull Share from the trade market.

Up to 10 people can pay emeralds, so you only have to pay at least 10% of the Silverbull Share trade market price to activate prof bombs.



Detailed Mechanism
This feature is accessible through the Party Finder NPC.

The Bomb Party Queue creates a "bomb party." You have to pay at least 10% of the Silverbull Share trade market price to join the public bomb party queue (the more you pay = the faster the queue, but nothing more than that). When people in the queue pay enough money to buy a Share, everyone will get transferred to the server with the least player count (that is not restarting soon). Then the server buys a Share from the Trade Market and activates 20 minutes[1] worth of Profession XP Bombs and Profession Speed Bombs (the duration increases when a sale is going on).

Private Bomb Party Queue
If you are a party leader, you can queue the entire party to the private bomb party queue. When your party members pay enough emeralds to buy a Silverbull Share, everyone in your party will get transferred to the server with the least player count, and the same thing happens as the public bomb party queue. Not all party members have to pay emeralds, but only players who spent more than 10% of the Silverbull Share trade market price will receive access to the "Participated player slot."

Optional: The party leader can see how much each party member paid, so the leader can kick members who aren't paying emeralds.

Participated Player Slow (Optional)
(This feature is optional as it might take a lot of time to implement, but this will (at least partially) solve the Champion rank slot problem.)

The prof world (the world which was thrown the bombs by the server)'s Champion slot will be disabled and instead will get replaced with the "Participated player slot."

The participated players (players who paid emeralds to activate the bombs) will get access to the "Participated player slot" and be able to join the prof world freely even when the world is full.

The "Participated player slot" system will make it fairer between players with a champion rank and without one by deleting the champion rank slot temporarily.

When the previous bombs expire, if players in the prof world paid enough emeralds while the bombs are active, the bombs will get rethrown, and players who paid emeralds will get access to the "Participated player slot."

Players who paid emeralds for the previous bombs will no longer be able to access the "Participated player slot" once bombs get rethrown if the player didn't pay for the new bombs[2].



Pros and Cons
Pros:

• It makes professions better by making prof bombs more accessible
  • You only have to pay 8-9le (the current Silverbull Share price is around 80-90le) to join the public queue. And there will be more worlds with prof bombs, so it will be easier to join a world with prof bombs even if you don't have enough emeralds.
  • Professions are still kinda grindy, but it will be doable with the greatly increased bomb accessibility.
    • I leveled all my professions from level 0 to 90 during the last dxp weekend which lasted 3 days (without Champion rank, the world queue took me so much time), so to be honest, I don't think a profession revamp is needed if the bomb accessibility is good enough.
• Increases the demand for Silverbull Share, which indirectly increases Wynncraft's profit
• This idea can be extended to other bombs (such as Combat XP Bombs and Loot Bombs)

Cons:

• May cause potential inflation of the price of Silverbull Shares
• Takes a lot of precious dev time (I mean, A LOT OF, this system adds and changes so many things)

Footnotes
[1]: You can buy 60 minutes worth of prof bombs (3 Profession XP Bombs and 6 Profession Speed Bombs) with 3 Silverbull Shares, therefore 20 minutes per Share.

[2]: The player will get transferred to the normal slot from the "Participated player slot" automatically when a participated player in the normal slot leaves, to prevent the world player count from bypassing the limit by a lot. Without this, it is possible to bypass the player limit by doing this:

1. Create a prof world with the bomb party queue
2. Participated players leave, other players join the world to make the normal slot full, and then the participated players rejoin using the "Participated player slot"
3. Players who are not in the "Participated player slot" pay emeralds for the next rethrow
4. Repeat 2,3 and the player count in the "Participated player slot" will gradually increase without limit

(please lmk if you find a loophole)
