    Guys, I do not understand how the server has gone this long without anyone else really wanting this to be fixed except for me I guess. I've searched on this issue numerous times from when I first started playing a year ago, up to a few months ago and then now. I'm not sure if I'm searching wrong but I can't find any solid response from the staff saying they acknowledge the quest being broken or wanting to fix it. I feel like nobody else cares, but I can sort of understand because not everybody knows about this quest, and its easy to forget about, but I just figured with a polished up server like this that cares about little things this would have been noticed more by now.

    Brief explanation of why this quest is important/what it does:

    You do this annoying 10-min long quest in Aqua given by Kenta, and after completing the quest your pet "is more obedient" Kenta says or something, and now moves at whatever speed your character moves. You know how every time you're training or walking anywhere or running around on your silver mane, your pet turns into this unnatural looking ball thing and teleports to you to keep up? Only for like two seconds will they be a regular looking pet again, before turning into that ugly ball thing and warping to you again (if you are running at full speed with haste/on a mount). Pretty much all of us in legends that are a non-thief class have a speed boost from all of our equips, or you're like me and you use the pet equip scrolls and speed pills for extra speed to be faster. Or, you're a thief with haste and your pet is always way behind. So ALL of us experience the same issue of our pet not looting as much as it could be looting with this quest functional, and by the time we jump on the rope there's still a bunch of stuff our pet could've looted, but we've all gotten used to it now.

    Description of the bug:
    Kenta's Advice Quest does nothing to your pet upon completion
    What is supposed to happen?: Your pet is supposed to have the same movement speed as the character at all times, permanently.
    Where did you find and/or notice this bug?: I noticed immediately after I completed the quest that my pet still moved at 100% speed
    A step-by-step guide to re-producing this bug (optional): Everyone's pet in ML moves at 100% speed

    I just think its a shame that this quest is glitched because it was a nostalgic part of the game for my pet to be as fast as me. I personally just think its very ugly to see the pet always move so slow and turn into that disgusting unnatural blob for a second and teleport. If the quest were functional, your pet would only do that if you flash jumped or teleported. I believe the Kenta's Advice quest was around in GMS for as long as Aqua Road and pets were in the game. So it's a pretty OG thing and I remember it well. I also remember a lot of people that were high leveled not even knowing about the quest ever existing, so I can understand why it would only be a handful of people that care or even remember. But does Kim remember?

    You try in the report a bug section?
    I' new toi the server and forums so I can' say I have experience with the gm's addressing this sort of thing. I do know they'e gotten back tok me a number of times toonight while this update is happening. So if they can deal with me asking a questio n every 7 minutes roughly during server maintenance, I'm sure your question will be answered at some poi nt

    Its currently just not coded Legends, and don't know when it will be. Do anyone however have a video (old one) where someone has this quest completed?

    Ok i did some small research (not too much free time and im already at work, so shouldn't be doing this :rolleyes:) and found this video, which is obviously not the version you asked me for (and this video also takes like 2 seconds to find) where the pet is moving according to the pet owner speed:


    Besides that, and considering i need to check more, i found that around V.80 people started having issues with the perma pets (the perma white tiger to be precise, idk why) not being able to follow you at your speed, so on earlier versions, the rest of the pets were working perfectly fine on that part.

    If i find any more useful information, i will post it, but this is the best i could find rn. MapleF4

    P.S. I also found that for V.106 they decided to completely remove the quest and just make actually matching the pet speed with the owner speed. (that's another solution, cause why not, but first we should figure out how the pet speed works)

    This quest also seems to not work properly once you try to repeat it.
    I've completed the quest today after hitting no more of 8 boxes. Then I started the same quest (since it's repeatable) and I've hit around 30 boxes and nothing has dropped.

    Is this intended or bugged?

    I knew about this quest and finally took the time to visit aqua road to do it. I'm an arch mage and I was planning to buy get a silver mane just so my pet could loot at 170% speed but since the quest is broken there's no need. When training at Ulu Estates II, if I want to loot the upper level I practically carry my pet across the map making sure it jumps at the right times and doesn't teleport, as to successfully loot all the small platforms on the second level of the map. So often times I have to choose between keeping epm or keeping the loot drops.

    I'm ignorant but I would think getting a pet's movement speed to reflect the player's movement speed would be a simple task.

    This is cool! I was aware of that quest and did it once, but was like.. meh, just a pointless quest that does nothing.. xD

    I had no idea it would make pets so much better!

    I assume its character bound, not pet bound right?
    The repeatable part makes me wonder..

    I'm having this same issue.

    The original Kenta's Advice that gives +10 closeness and faster speed works fine.
    However once you finish it and attempt to complete it again, you'll find that the chests no longer give the papers when attempting the repeatable +15 closeness version of the quest.

    The repeatable version of the quest can be instant completed.
