a little while ago i suggested revamping Kerning and Ludi PQ with 4 difficulty setting(with explicit mechs wrote in them)

this time, i got some idea for new pieces of gear that could be acquire from those revamped PQ(beyond just what i suggested previously)
ofc that mean increased slots

1-about all of these aren't meant to give a big power creep, so potential wont be enable on most of these(its mostly for cosmetic intent while also giving a little gain in the process)
2- totems have fairly large stats so that it balance the game between old and returning players and thats
a little more options than just afterland totems
3-i got a bit lazy writing but i think they should make Fairy heart acquirable from a revamped PQ too

1-weather visible effects are disabled in boss rooms
2-weather effect can be disabled in normal maps via options
3-highter difficulty weather rewards can also use the weathers effects from a lower difficulty
4-characters can only see other players weathers effect if they are 5 lvl above the area they should be in(example lvl 205 to make weather effect appear in Nameless Town)
but a lvl 200-204 would not see the weathers effect from other players in Nameless town...that way player can view the map lorewise b4 they get affected by the weather effects from other players
5-the currently active weather displayed to other players are from the last player with a weather effect to enter the map(those effects can only be change once every 1 min
at most in every map so that it wont crash/lag the servers(in case mass players with such effect enter the same map at about the same time)
