    Hello.

    As per the title says.
    With the departure of events and the proximity of new events we have a window of time where NX farming is all but limited to voting (if not CWKPQ or LPQ).

    So why not show some love to PQs, broadly speaking?

    In general, most PQs should be taking on average around 10~15mins per run.
    After ending any PQ you generally talk to NPCs or leave rooms and get some PQ experience.

    So, what I'm suggesting is giving constantly 100~250NX per PQ run.

    This will of course reward players running PQs with other people (supposedly).

    In the list of PQs that could possibly be given this buff would be :
    • Kerning PQ
    • Ludi Maze PQ
    • Ellin PQ
    • Orbis PQ
    • Magatia PQ

    Henesys PQ, Ludi PQ, Guild PQ and CWK PQ wouldn't need a buff as, by possible reward rooms, they would be getting NX cards from that (maybe a buff from that?)

    Henesys PQ because it can be soloed quite easily and its runs are very fast.

    So, for any particular player, an increase of 600 ~ 1500 NX per hour of PQing would make them more prone on doing levels at the specified level-based PQs, and for older players, wanting to farm NX for AP resets / cosmetics, they would be able of doing so in a more friendly manner.

    A thing to note that if such thing were to be added it'd need to be a set amount of NX for completing the PQ but not in a drop form. Just as a reward directly added to your account to avoid solo PQ runs with mules just to gather all NX on one account if it were to be dropped

    Yes this is my main suggestion.
    Something like, when you end KPQ you talk to an NPC that gives a random reward and some XP.
    Put another roll for either a 100 or 250 NX reward from the PQ.

    idk something like 30% for a 250 NX, rest for a 100 NX

    I agree with you on your idea that nx would be awarded for finishing the run. Maybe also remove some of the really crappy rewards like random ores that no one needs?
    I disagree with your title choice. Can we think of something else other than "Make __ great again" it's gotten old as a suggestion post title

    I like the idea of a flat 100 NX reward for completing (non-Henesys) party quests.
    250 sounds like too much for KPQ considering how fast it goes.
    Maybe make separate flat reward values for each PQ based on how long it usually takes.

    In order to prevent multi-client farming, staff could:
    a) Only reward 1 account per IP per run
    b) Implement a 10~20min reward cooldown per IP

    I like option A better, and it should be fairly easy to implement (assuming player IPs are readily available on the Player object)

    Or option 3 like the max you can get from running pq's per day like 2k NX.

    Another option is for staff to revert the nerfs they put on PQ bonus stages a long time ago.

    When nx drops were first added to PQ, every single box would drop a 100 nx coupon 100% of the time, and sometimes you would see a 100 nx coupon and a 250 nx coupon.

    Could lock people that are playing on same IP (friends in same house / brothers / sisters)
    But reasonable.

    Would make finding parties for PQs quite bad for new players, once again, because people would just target run every 20mins.

    Kimmy was testing out possible ways of making voting optional, or in general, less intrusive for people (catch me saying this wrong)
    I had hopes that either NX card dropped all year long (not only during events) or that at least more PQs were given NX points rewards.

    This, but I don't remember if it was only in OPQ and LPQ (as per my brain remembers only those), was it on CWKPQ as well?

    There are so many thing wrong with the PQ rewards. All those defence scroll, all those random shit ores, 100 BLUE POTIONS (from LPQ).
    You are literally guaranteed with better return if you are a normal character and just grind/train and turn in those gacha tickets.

    While NX can be an issue, but it is really the general reward being dog shit.
    Like I previously said it before, the PQ rewards is balanced in a game where gacha doesn't drop, and every rates are shit.
    Here, PQ's exp probably lose out to grinding due to 2x exp, and the reward is dog shit compare to gacha drop from grinding.
    You need more than just better NX drops to "make PQ not be shitty again"

    The aim of this suggestion is to provide a means to farm cash for people that do heavy washing, not actually "make PQs great again". So the title is a bit misleading.

    Only people that do excessive washing or people that level up faster than voting can provide AP resets will want to grind extra cash. Problem is though that if you PQ alot you will likely not fall into either category (these people will generally leech their character or they will level up slowly due to the nature of PQs).

    If you really want to make PQs more worth I think the best way is to add more valuable (meso wise) rewards. IMO add coloured raggedy capes to KPQ, more coloured adventurer capes to LPQ etc and add better scroll rewards.

    This is why I voted against the suggestion.

    If we do add a way to gain more cash for people wanting to wash I hope they will be ablr to do so without having to create more mules.
