Party-locked Challenge

I had this idea a long while ago and it's been brewing in my head since, so I figured it was finally time to post it.

The Party-locked Challenge is about limiting your character to only doing party content with other players (Party questing and bossing).

The Challenge officially starts: Saturday, May 6, 2023 15:00 PM UTC +2 COUNTDOWN.

Spoiler: Rules

The challenge starts at level 10.
When you start the challenge, you can bring exactly 100.000 mesos but no gear or items except:

• An “empty” monsterbook ring to avoid the quest pop-up.
• A set of Match Cards and an Omok game

You're not allowed to:

• Kill normal monsters (There are certain exceptions, see the You're allowed to section).
• Trade anyone players outside the challenge. That includes giving items to your party challenge character from other characters.
• Take anything from the bank that was not put there by a party challenge character.
• Take items that other players drop, or use your alternate character to farm items for your party challenge character.
• Leech in any way.

You're allowed to:

• Complete party quests
• Bosses and minibosses are allowed if you are atleast 2 people participating in the party
• Kill monsters at Kerning City Subway: Line 2 <Area 1> when you reach level 31 if you are atleast 2 people participating in the party
• Do activities around job advancement and skills
• Party with people outside the challenge, but leeching is not allowed.
• Complete boss prequests including killing monsters where needed.

At level 31, players participating in the challenge receive this letter:

Spoiler: Notes and advice

Notes

• The reason the map Kerning City Subway: Line 2 <Area 1> is allowed from lvl 31, is to get players to level 35 for LPQ or to let broke players gather some money.
• We chose a single map to keep players together during the challenge and keep the party going.
• We chose this specific map because it has undead monsters so that all classes with AOE attacks can use them.
• Both monsters in the map drop throwing stars so that will bring a few of those into the challenge early on.

Advice

• Make sure to kill bosses in order to get scrolls and gear.
• It's a good idea to keep all weapons and scrolls you loot and share them with other players doing the challenge.

Discord
We have created a Discord server to unite the players participating in the challenge. Send me a PM to get an invite as I am not allowed to post it here.

Guild
We have repurposed the guild ‘Quest’ so it can be used by players participating in the challenge. Send me a PM and I will send you an invite. We are actively looking for jr. masters.

How do I participate?
All you have to do is write a post in this thread with you IGN.

Have fun :3

 

Hey, thanks for the interest.
I'm honestly starting to doubt if there is enough interest in the challenge, considering your the only person to respond after a few days. It's a party challenge after all.
Maybe it's just not meant to be.
