Please reduce the difficulty for the Wonderoid Jump Quest. Or give us a way to skip it after failing 100+ times. This difficulty is just ridiculous, I'll break my keyboard in half in anger before I ever get past B4, let alone FOUR levels of that.

    The difficulty is ridiculous. I've spent four hours on B1 alone because it's long and has no save point.

    Edit: I did complete it eventually, but I still would very much like a checkpoint at the fake door or something.

    check reddit - it mentions backtracking on the conveyor belt for B1 to make it easier (tossing robots ftw) but yeah it really is considerably hard. Reminds me of the MMF event last year (P.S. both events have something in common~)

    Honestly, I wish they would add checkpoints or just set the instant kill traps to a percentage of your hp. I've been stuck in room b1 for the past Eleven hours and I'm still attempting to clear even as I'm typing this. I've tried all the mentioned ways to clear it, like going through the way you're expected to or walking against the conveyors. If a timed event is going to stay this difficult they might as well make it permanent content. ~Rant

    Nothing important in this game should ever require a jump quest to obtain. And if there just has to be one, it shouldn't be a main part of it, let alone as ridiculously hard as this one.

    I finally cleared the first one after 12 hours, but it still needs to be made easier.

    Or at least make the content accessible for those of us who are not the most agile jump questers in the game. Seriously, if I could transfer my permanent Lidium heart in Reboot..I would not have cared for this event. I got that heart when I came back to the game...no jump quest, no anger required.

    B1 is a bit poorly designed but other than that it's really not that hard. Why do you guys insist on having everything served to you on a silver platter?

    I come to the forum to check for tips to complete these jump quests but only find most people are even more frustrated than I am. It's not really worth all of the trouble for me, so I guess I'll just be skipping this event.

    I rescued two androids currently.
    From my experiences, the timing with passing through the stationary/moving lasers as well as some jumping across small gaps is really strict. They need to increase the interval time that lasers fire by 50% and slightly shorten some of the gaps that you have to jump over.

    Ugh, I pray for a miracle that they reduce the difficulty. I ended up giving up.
    At LEAST let us go back to where we were if we dc / want to take a break and leave to do our dailies.
    Having to restart the whole thing is extremely ridiculous.

    There has previously been absolutely no reason to go out of your way to practice jump quests, since there's only 1 time in the game you'll ever need to do them (Gollux). It can't be expected of anyone to be good at jump quests. Then they just throw in this gigantic spike in difficulty with B1. When people get stuck in the same jump quest for several hours, it's fairly obvious that it's too hard. No amount of "get good" or "you just need to practice more" is ever going to justify that. And we only have a limited time to do this.

    And they could've at least made it so you didn't have to do them all without stopping. Maybe I'd want to take a break before doing B1 after having done the other stages, or stop and come back to it another time, but of course I'd have to do B4-B2 again too.

    B1 needs to be changed. Jump quests should never be pivotal to accessing content. And if Nexon so desperately wants jump quests to be the main part, it should be doable in a reasonable amount of time.
