RE: Make HeRo more sexy
It would be nice to see an option to do either the job quests or not. For example, if you were to do the thief quest over simply using the job npc [Which, could have it's own set of requirements a la the reset-man], you may earn yourself some neat thief-specific gear. Same would go towards second classes, if it wasn't too big of a hassle to insert. Thus making it alluring towards new players to do the quests,??to experience them especially if they never had before.
That was my particular experience. Being forced to do the job quests after being used to never even knowing they existed, I somewhat enjoyed them. [Although I hate questing in this game, for the most part] It'd be the same experience for most high rate/midrate people that come here looking for something new, fresh, and challenging.
Part of the allure of HeRo has always been that it does have a certain amount of dedication needed, as well as time and effort. Whether it was being poor and walking/using kafra to towns a long while back, or having a hard time with some access quest- it required more than most other servers demanded.
What would be really cool is if every account made, the first oh...three characters on it required job quests. people might pick an "easy" quest to do three times, before playing though, so eh. But that'd be their choice.
There are what, 12 slots per account? 9? It'd get new players into the "feel" of HeRo, while promising things to be a little less tedious after, when they decide "I feel like making a Crusader, never played one before!" as their fourth toon.
Like myself, I have a sage and gunslinger on my main account that are 8x. I could easily retrain them again, yes, but I severely don't want to do the job quests again. So they keep space on my main acc, until some rainy day I play them again.
It'd certainly secure HeRo as the niche challenging lowrate server, while also inviting more attention to it for having the option to do some custom quest to change jobs.
Knowing HeRo's team, they could come up with something exciting and unique as a custom job-changer, I bet.
