[WIP] EXP Curve changes and Zone Quest Changes

[dziobus]

This is a little work in progress that I am doing, and thought would be cool to share for those that want to give it a shot and try it.

Last updated: 30 December 2022

Full summary of the changes:
- Added names and tooltips for a lot of dummy boxes and dummy gachas and items.
- Added Shop items to Meruma's Deluxe Fashion Shop Coin (This was a EME thing that had no proper shop at GF)
- Added shop items to Dragon Tokens (This was a EME thing that had no proper shop at GF)
- Renamed Emergency Token 0613-10 back to Hit Parade Token and added the Shop Items(This was a EME thing that had no proper shop at GF)
- Added Shop items for Meruma's Fashion Token
- Raised Maximum EP obtainable from 500 to 600.
- Added Name for item 139356 Which had none just some strange symbols.
- Crystal slots for Mythical gear. (Kaias Ferocity, Fury and Wisdom)
- Shortened some of the gear roll names so they are all more inline and not to long (Example: Changed "Increase Ignore Physical Resistance" to "Ignore Physical Resistance". Its a OCD thing xD)
- Added Echo books to the Tikat shop. (Echo's auto-complete quest segments depending on the name. There seems to be something broken with the Apex Two Banquet ones though)
- Modified EXP required per level for levels 11-65. Did not touch levels 65-70 for now.
- Added EXP reward and 25 Tikat / Federation Bills to side quests.

Nice, thx bruh.

Update:

Almost done with a complete overhaul of the quests and the EXP curve. Will post it in the coming week or two. Right now going through testing it all.

Do you have any tools to make these changes, or are you doing them manually?

Manually. Since they are not linked to any DB tables, I would imagine it would not be so easy to make tools to edit the files needed. Especially since you need to do them both server and client side.

While learning the datasheet structure, I extracted all the quests data with the quest names, zones, exp, and gold.

I'm also interested in working on a complete overhaul of the progression difficulty, so I might develop a tool to ease the process, just making sure there are no other options.

I MEan you could make a tool if you could import / export in the same format.
While Its nice to have the list you psoted, it is kind off missing important info:
Quest level
Existing rewards
Requisites

Also: I am not just overhauling the progression and adding exp, I am also replacing / adding rewards to clean up old ones that arent needed anymore.
EXP from the zone quest will be dependent on the level its for, also adjusting some monster EXP per kill.

I made 2 versions where one of them will additionally have reduced story quest EXP for a more intense grind option.
Right now half way through testing, so far seems alright, if all goes well this week i will post the files for people to try out.

I could make a second list for the existing rewards. Looking at the diffs in your files I assume the rewards are the items inside the CompensationType element.

I haven't found yet where it's stored the Quest Level and the Requisites.

Yes those are the rewards. As for levels you can do it in different ways, file wise, the only level reference you can find is in the compensation as a comment, but thats not true for all, the other is depending on the zone the quest is in since they are divided and labeled like for example 41-47 etc.
Overall changing the quests is pretty time consuming but once you work out a solid base it goes pretty fast.

Quick update:

Found a small issue while doing test run of my changes. Should get around to fixing it this weekend, so a tiny delay.

How can I put this into the client 93.02 and the server ? could you do me a tip?

This was made with 100.02 files for 64 bit client / server. So you will very likely not be able to use them on the 92.03.

Great progress, are you doing all these manually? I've been doing a very similar thing. But each step/adjustment done manually is extremly timeconsuming.
