    Hello,

    I know there was a similar suggestion to this in the past, but I was having difficulty locating it and wanted to bring this up again, along with some new ideas.

    In short, I feel all party quests should be open to minimum level through 200. Obviously there needs to be scaling involved. New users have joined the server specifically looking for PQs and due to level restrictions they can be quite empty.

    When I originally played GMS, the fastest and most fun way to level was through PQ. Some of these PQs I find quite fun and have huge nostalgia for me. In Legends, the exp rate is higher so you out level these areas faster. Some PQs, such as MPQ, I never got to experience because of the level restrictions and difficulty finding a party. I still would like to do many of the PQs, including KPQ, but I don't want to just not level or have a mule for each PQ. This can be excessive and unnecessary.

    I think the current PQs should be the starting level up to 200. If the player is above the normal range (such as 31+ for KPQ), they would need to be adjusted into the right range. Here are some ideas:
    - Adjust all stats, HP/MP to a default range during the PQ
    - Block usage of skills that are above that job range
    - Transform player into something with transform specific skills. Models from epq can be used. Make the transformation unremovable or if player removes it they are automatically removed from the pq.
    - Set players DPS to a set amount of damage.



    Pros:
    - More access to PQs, less empty PQs
    - More PQ = More Nostalgia
    - Easier to find a party via smega or guild/buddy list
    - Fun times for higher level players too
    - Can allow for fun player hosted events, games, or hanging out

    Cons:
    - Kinda custom
    - Not exactly original to GMS
    - People can party with themselves and get through PQs easier but I am not sure this is exactly bad. Stages are time limited and slower progression lowers overall completion count. You can still only open so many boxes in the bonus stage, can't open on all characters at the same time.
