Party quests (monster collection perspective)

happycows

For PQ's that don't exist in crossworld PQ, allow players to enter solo

examples: Dimensional Crack (aka "Ludi PQ") and Nett's Pyramid

For monster collection purposes, its burdonsome to recruit people for these PQ's which require 3 to 4 players, respectively, to enter.

Its difficult to recruit people for this, as most players don't care about monster collection. its especially difficult in interactive worlds due to low populations. Even when you are able to recruit people, sometimes the recruits just AFK so that you can do your thing to try and ollect the monsters needed. I don't blame them, but i simply mention this to illustrate that not many people actually care about the "party" aspect anyways.

It would be a massive QOL for monster collectors to allow "PQ's" to be allowed entry without a technical party.

And yea yea i get it, they are called party quests. but get real. its 2025 and most players are simply NOT interested in these. Monster Collection is made extra difficult because of this. Its one thing to go out of your way to hunt "dead content" monsters, but another thing to add party conditions just to get ACCESS to these monsters

Im surprised newer party quests still require a party of usually 3+ people. I remember when bosses needed fillers even when the party leader was strong enough. It was good they allowed parties of 1 to enter RA and other bosses. Even non-boss content like MPE and Muto allows for solo played. There shouldn't be a requirement for X number of players needed to do PQs for fun or monster collections or other collecting purposes. It kills the mood when you need to drag volunteers when you want to go do Lord Pirate or Romeo and Juliet to register PQ exclusive mob.

Yes, but only pq that you can actually solo(Pirate pq for example)......Ludibrium no as it require at least 3 on the boxes.

i would much rather they revive the pq and give an incentive for ppl to run them again
obviously not the basic.......fully revamped with multi-difficulty

alternatively they could make pq mobs spawn in a Pollo/Fritto portal

or maybe a special map so that they can be hunt for bot cards and M-Collection...

or summon bags you can purchase with Legion coins
Alishar Bag 50 Legion coin, spawn 2 Alishar, purchase limit per week 7
Papa Pixie Bag: 50 Legion coins, spawn 2 Papa Pixie
Ghost Pixie Bag: 75 Legion Coins, Spawn 10 Ghost Pixies
Elite Monster bag: 100 Legion coin, Spawn 3 random Elite monsters
Pyramid Bag: 150 coins: spawn 5 random monster from the Pyramid(small chance at the boss spawning from it)
Silent Crusade Bag: 150 coins: spawn 2 random monsters from the Silent Crusade questline
Dragon Rider Bag: 150 coins, spawn 8 Soaring Eagle, 8 Soaring Hawk and 1 Dragon Rider
Bot Catching Monster Bag: 1500 Coins, Spawn random bot catching monsters for 90 sec
M-Collection Booster: 500% Rate for 1 hour, 4000 Legion Coins(if bags are time capped), 20000 coins if bags are permanent duration

That's a good point, about the ludi pq boxes. I didn't think about that since i only need the PQ for stage 2, for the shadow monsters - which i am able to access myself with AFK party members. If i needed to collect Alishar, then yea it would be a problem going in solo. Thankfully, Alishar can be collected in dojo.

That said, it could still be useful letting me in ludi pq solo to go as far as i can because at least this way it would technically be possible to complete the monster collection of ludi without needing a party. (stage 2 pq + dojo for alishar)

Also, those are good ideas, special map for collection, or summon bags - but maybe instead of legion coins, it could be some repeatable quest you could do to earn them like "kill x mobs" - although, i'd take the legion coin option too lol

That is what platform puppies are for.

Just add Monsterblooms and rework their odds to target not registered monsters more instead of giving you a box.

woah, i had to look up platform puppy. wth i have never heard of these lmao

RedRaven

Daxter: i was also thinking for the fam cards, not just the M-Collection

so that would potentially solve 2 problems

other mobs i should of listed above:
Cygnus spawns(Mihile,Eckart, Oz, irena, Hawkeye, Shinsoo)
Lorang, Clang, Tortie
Rombots, Deet and Roy, King Slime,
bags that spawn the mobs for the Dragon Badge ?(these are praticly almost impossible as is)
Gollux mobs?????(not sure if the current ones drop any card)
Blood Pirate Swabby & Blood Pirate Lookout(quest only mobs from Commerci)
not rly sure about Old Lotus...does the new one even drop his card anymore ? i haven't seen it drop ever

and i also had never heard of platform puppies....is that a new thing NX added in ?
