Idea - New DF Roulette: Challenge (iLv Sync)

[Gokuhan]

This would use the same dungeons as the High roulette, but when you entered the dungeon your iLv would sync to the minimum requirements for the dungeon. If the devs wanted, they could also revert older dungeons back to their original difficulty for the roulette (Bees, anyone?). As this roulette would be more difficult and time consuming, the reward should be more than current High Lv roulette, and it would be a nice touch to have the original loot drops in it as well.

The devs have said that they don't want older dungeons to become completely obsolete or way too easy (i.e. the current 110 iLv cap) so something like this could help bring life back to the older dungeons. There are some small issues though. For example current roulettes help to fill slots in groups that would otherwise wait a long time to fill and this suggested roulette would not as only people who signed up for it would be thrown into it.

It sounded like a fun idea to me so I thought I'd throw it out there.

I feel you bro. With no pf, shouting in MD looking for a speed run party until our throats sore.

Remember though, min iLev reqs would put you much lower than iLv70 darklight. The tonberry chasing you would be scary again!

This is bloody Brilliant. Keeps old content fresh and challenging for those who enjoy the challenge. What were you thinking for rewards?

What were you thinking for rewards?

It would likely just be more soldiery than the normal high roulette offers. I can't see them adding any other kind of reward for a roulette. One thing they could add is a minion based off of a mob or boss from each dungeon and make it rare (but not quite as rare) like the nutkin.

The reward is the challenge. If something like this ever implemented, will sure not done to make another way to farm things.

The reward is the challenge. If something like this ever implemented, will sure not done to make another way to farm things.

If that is the case though, there is no point in implementing this because the challenge is already in the game. You can enter these dungeons any time you'd like at the minimum ilvl. This feature seems like a way to get both challenge and rewards and the rewards are what will stop its queues from becoming a ghost town after a couple of weeks.

There are a number of players that would enjoy this kind of challenge and the lack of reward would cause others who are more reward minded to not bother. Kinda a win win on both sides
