Ok, might get flamed for this, I dunno.. But if I don't try , won't know..

Snowmans are going away soon, as the 2 X drops. I was trying to find a way for people
to get dragon points another way as to encourage actual farming and not oracling.

What if...Monsters would automaticly give some depending on their level ?

Read my explanation well to see I don't want to make this go insane :


Would it be that bad if monsters had 50% chance to give 1 DP per 10 lvl they have
upon kill ? (Rounded DOWN)

Exemple : I had a quest for 100 mobs lvl 96.

Getting around 450 DP during the quest doesn't sound that bad to me.. As at that lvl,
15 DQ items will give that and u all know that from 100 mobs , you will get around that
or more.

As for killing them in squad, I think the 50% chance should still apply to everyone in
squad.

What would this encourage ?

- Doing quests in squad, as everyone would have a chance to a "random" additional
reward, whatever they did damage or not. Let's face it, some clerics just love their
healing job so much that they won't DD and would be unfair.

- Less oracling perhaps for those who want to take part of that system ? Doing 100
wicked pirates would just give a max (if VERY lucky) of 500 DP. I think for the price
they would invest (although I am strongly against oracling) , it would be just a little nice
bonus.

- Would also help lower levels that can't get DP before lvl 30 or so, as killing a lvl 10
mob would still give them a chance to get 1.


Would still be rather hard to collect 50 000 DP or 60 000 for 3 medals. Killing lvl 100
mobs would still take around 10 000 kills or more. But like I said, the idea would be
intended as just a small bonus for actually farming. Taking lvl 50 mobs as exemple:
1 outta 2 would have a chance to give 5 DP as well as any possible DQ item drop..

It's just a suggestion, I don't want this to turn into a flame war..
If u are totally against, just a "bad idea" would be fine b:surrender
Proud supporter of the new expansion. Sure it has it's share of bugs, like any games. But for a pure farmer/grinder, that's a whole lot of new mobs to go beat up b:chuckle

    mhm, it sounds oke, not really outragiously much points, but still a nice bonus ^^
    What amount would lvl ? mobs give anyway O__o;

    There are quite some in oht and also some of them in cube... I gues there should be a feature then that mobs inside cube shouldn't give any dq-points, they mobs in room 4 are already being abused by veno's to lvl their pets, can you imagine ppl farming dq-points on them b:chuckle
