    Previous thread

    Hello, everyone.

    For some of you who don't know, I already suggested a kill counter on a different thread where mobs we killed would get recorded if we were to use a command. This command is mainly targeted towards people who farm for items where I thought it was a good idea to have a kill counter to have a precise idea of how many mobs needed to be killed to get a certain item. The problem with this is stated by Kimberly here:

    I had an idea for a new suggestion which included making custom quests and using quest helper as, pretty much, a kill counter. Kimberly's response for that is here:


    I mentioned how a lot of people don't use the available tab and if they did, they don't normally scroll all the way to the bottom so for it to be there would not be an issue as the tab for these quests would be at the very bottom, and if it did bother the person, they could just minimize the tab. I'm sure there'd be a way to make it so the tab doesn't exist regardless. Having them added to a custom NPC (which you'd use a command to contact) would be one of the only ways for this to work and the NPC being an NPC shouldn't be an issue as it is just working in the first suggested command's place.

    New Suggestion


    This suggestion is geared towards people who farm for items and would want to get an idea of how many of [x] mobs they'd have to kill to get a certain item.

    The new suggestion is we would use quest helper as a kill counter through custom quests that give no rewards and are accepted from an NPC that is contacted through a command. How this would work is you would accept a quest for a mob you would like to track (in this example, Drakes). The quests would not have all mobs in the game and would only have popularly requested mobs and mobs that are popularly farmed for items. A quest dedicated to Drakes would count 99,999 Drakes and the rest is simple. Every time you kill a Drake, it would count through quest helper. This would help me get an idea of how many Drakes I'd have to kill to get a Helmet INT 60 scroll after keeping track of the kills multiple times.

    Some quests themselves are a kill counter and implementing this should not be a problem. Kimberly has stated this:

    Kimberly's against this, but I want to know what you, the community, thinks. There have already been so much positive feedback and maybe if we can push it and push it, Kim will change her mind seeing how so many people want this to happen. So many of you have already supported the first kill counter idea I have presented. I beg of you to support this one.

    Please vote in the poll. Your vote now is more important than ever, especially since Kimberly is against this idea. Even if she never changes her mind, I want to know what you guys think.

    Thank you and Happy Mapling!~
