My main idea was to find a way to give incentive to play all the maps and not just mindlessly grind 258. Plus, adding a challenge to it would be fun, and I think if the exp/hr was comparable to 258 lots of people would prefer to do story mode or hardcore story mode...

making 258 harder will only lead to people grinding the easier maps
people will just grind 204 or some**** and take like 1/10 of the time

sector has to be completely reformed

But have you seen the exp for 204? lol i wouldn't grind that . I'd just get a team and play something higher

my point is that people will find a way to get exp more efficiently than by playing the harder levels lol

the closest thing to it would be like 5k exp compared to 65k xp, i'd rather go play viva pinata paha

Ppl would prolly go back to 239 and 228 actually, but 258 would still be better exp prolly

This could be good for the event

wut sound so easy?
i never passed level 247(actually never really tryed).
gora dameging 1000-2000 each hit and he have like 100k hp.
kyura i think u know very well that no1 can solo it and its very hard even with alot ppl.
didnt said i want it to be easy but i want it to be possible.

It's perfectly possible to solo Kyura, it just takes practice. A LOT of practice. Like, more than a little bit. Inf rb packs helps, lel.

As for 247, do the boxes drop from the little crate at end just like normal airship map? I can't remember, but if so, you could push that boss...

You literally can not complete all the maps with only 1 full hp bar and not die.

That's why there would be checkpoints part way through and it is possible, just need to be careful and clever with your moves.

The only thing is, it's not.
+ He said if you die you have to restart all over.
He means checkpoints for set amount of exp rewards, not to continue the game from there on.

e.g. checkpoint at map 10 - 50k exp
meaning if u die at map 11, you'll get 50k exp, and restart at map 1.

That was partially my intention max, it would be fun to see how far you could get on 1 bar of hp. I wouldn't expect anyone to be able to beat the entire story, that's why there would be checkpoints so you would still get enough exp to make it worth it. Or if that's too hard to code, at least keep the perm death idea, but 1 bar of hp woulda be rly fun. Plus if normal story mode was revamped to be worth playing, hardcore story would be to test your skill for a chance at better rewards.

And @cooky I was thinking that about the item as well but I thought it might get abused by hackers  maybe an untradeable item, so it wouldn't ruin economy? That would be kinda cool...

@Prophet, I like the idea of making all the mobs have high lvl stats, that would be a good addition

Story mode with a twist: your hp doesn't go back to 100% at the start of each new map, it stays at what it was after killing boss of the previous map. And if you die, you lose and have start over from the beginning. The reward for completing the entire story mode would be a huge exp reward that would be comparable to if you had done a bunch of 258 in the same amount of time (make it a bit less tho). Make exp checkpoints as well, so you get a set amount of exp if you die after passing certain levels, but make beating the entire story substantially more rewarding.

It would be so fun to play all the old maps, and this would be a way to encourage ppl to do it...

Also do some sort of similar exp rewarding system for normal story mode :3

Or just make gora non-pushable like was planned I believe....

I think the entire way that exp is awarded should be reworked. It's wayyyy too easy to get exp these days. I think exp shouldn't be based solely on the level of the map and mobs pushed, but on some equation that factors level of map, level of the player receiving exp, amount of time to finish the map, and number of mobs pushed (and bonus multipliers where applicable). And I wish they would hurry up and patch 258 so that you couldn't push gora

It's been brought up before but it would be so nice if exp was nerfed depending on your level. Like so, a lvl 1 would get barely any exp on 258, and then the exp would scale as they leveled up.

What would be amazing is if you could receive equal exp potential per hour from all levels below your own level, but that would take a lot of work since you can't just base it on time to complete the map (ppl would just sit idle and then kill boss at last moment)

If it was lv 258 he most likely just pushed the boss off the edge of the map, which is not hacking. And that map also gives an insane amount of exp, so it's possible to level extremely fast...

Finally! The guide has moved on to it's 4th owner

It got too hard to update for me after I left, so I'm glad it's still going to be kept up. I like the changes you've made :3
