That would be unfortunate to remove these quests but in their current state, i totally agree they are useless. So why not give them a new life with i guess, not that much work ??
easy way
change the GS to 590 and give to weapons the opportunity to have a dedicated 3rd
revamped way
keep 580
add quests to get new items/mats to be able to level the weapons from 580 to 590
in this arc, offer the players an ‘on top quest’ where you can farm one mat to add your weapon one of the most popular perk in game. These quests can be repeatable for other weapons. For instance, you want refreshing as a 3rd perk, then you can find a quest for Brillant Animus. etc etc
that’s some work for sure, but it adds contents when you hit 60 and can keep people in different areas of the game outside Brimstone. You can also add gypsum orbs rewards
I’d recommend not to throw away these quests, but to rework them so players can have very good weapons, upgradable ones and with a unique perk and look. And a good reason to spend time on these quests
i was trying to get rid of those quest icons in my map
because its really a hassale to finish them… and even if i fnish them, those weapons arent anything special.
even if we can get them to 600 they are still avarage… they dont worth the effort
and you are suggesting they should add more quests ? !? !!!
or rather i dont care what they do with the quests
but they MUST add a button to hide quest icons in map
Very good suggestion! I only did the quests because I wanted to clean up my map after I got to gs600 (which happened way too fast imo, even before the leveling got boosted).
Threw away most of the weapons because I had already gotten better ones from dungeons. I wouldn’t even mind re-doing the quests if the final upgraded weapons had some unique perks/specs specifically for PvE encounters (like upgraded versions of the Bane perks or sth, just a quick idea I’m sure there are better ones out there)!
when i say to revamp, it’s to make these weapons attractive. It’s sad to throw all away when you can do such the same great work as devs did for early leveling.
But a remove button in your quest journal can be a shortcut if you don’t care about them.
Yeah i cant believe i grinded out that tripe for those weapons. It was the worst waste of time, the missions werent gun, i honestly wanted to put the game down and never play it again after the first one. And the only reason why i ever grot through them was merely free roaming with noob players. I want to emphasize that the person responsible for that garbage is not worth their pay check. This only proves the necessity for a public quest creation tool. Because of 365 days of go here and kill/collect 1-15 things and in special cases you get to kill 40 of the same things. You know whats more fun than doing the same thing over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again. No joke escort quests. I would rather deal with an npc with no sense of self preservation and be frustrated with it walking in the loving embrace of death and have to do the same quest over again and know that none of this is my fault than to know that im volenteering my life away to this boring task. And then know that I will be doing that 5 more times for the same weapon and then realise that i could have started the legendary weapon quests for all the weapons and then proceed to do the same catagories of items in the 5 quests at the same time. Ive looked online through the credits of new world to find out who is responsible for that mess so they could get the recognition they diserve but wouldnt you know it. No one is willing to take credit for that. Thats right. Not one person is listed under mission design or quest design or anything of that sort. Because they knew what they did.
I feel you man. At the time they have been created, it was an end game content.
The game evolved a lot in between and a revamp would be really nice.
Especially when you know you can make one easy quest in Brimstone to get a 610 legendary. Things should be balanced.
I’d agree to make things a bit simple according to current level of quests in Brimstone but still challenging as you could get an opportunity to personnalise your own legendary (choice of a 3rd perk).
There are many ways to add contents through these revamped quests, adding dungeons’ stuff, killing such new boss etc etc
I’ve always advocated for a new weapon upgrade system where any weapon can be upgraded regardless of it’s GS and have it that perks can be added by salvaging trash weapons and receiving a shard of the specific perk you’re wanting requiring you to combine a lot of shards to increase the perk stat by a small amount. This would make it worth killing all those trash mobs endlessly and getting rubbish weapons and gear you can’t do anything with.
Could take ideas from other games that use upgrade systems where you can salvage weapons and gear for special items that let you roll random stats on current gear.
Otherwise transmog may create a want for epic weapons if they update the look of them to look unique.
