Please discontinue yelling this on servers when you get rdmd or see a hacker. 9 out 10 times I am already handling the situation. I do not use in chat commands I have my staff tools key bound for ease of use and so people do not know I am in my menu, this saves me from having hackers and other bad doers from leaving the server while I’m handling bans and such. This saves me time and starting over. I do not need everyone to know when I am handling a situation for this very reason. So when you see a mass rdmer or hacker or whatever it may be please do not scream at myself or other staff to do our job or ban them as I already did or am in process. If you think something is not getting taken care of and you want to check we have admin chat via @ in chat to reach us. I plan to continue to promptly handle situations and would appreciate not getting a headache from all of you yelling lol. Use our admin chat and report tools for this please. This is the end of my public service announcement ✌?

When you put one of them inside a socketable gun, it keeps the re-rolled stats; so if you roll perfect insanely strong stats, you can keep them forever inside of the socketed weapon.

Scrolls: Map Challenge Replacements

1.
"Obtain x amount of rightful kills with anything within the span of 1 to 3 maps."
X= 3-30
Easy: 3-6; 1-2 maps
Medium: 5-10; 1-2 maps
Hard: 10-15; 1-3 maps
Expert: 15-25; 1-3 maps
Professional: 20-30 1-3 maps
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


2.
"Within the same map find x amount of Scroll Pieces." (Essentially like the cog quest, but for scrolls and within a limited time span)
-Scroll Pieces spawn up to a max of 10 times a round, but are moderately small (about the size of a gmod turtle plushie) and do not glow nor make noise. They are able to spawn on any map and their positions vary based on player locations.
-Only 2 scroll pieces are allowed to exist in one instance. Another one will spawn if one is picked up.

Easy: 3-5 pieces
Medium: 4-8 pieces
Hard: 7-14 pieces
Expert: 10 - 20 pieces
Proffesional: 15- 25 pieces



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.
"On the map x ,obtain y rightful kills"
x=a random map that is selected from the list of maps as long as it exists
-a button will be available to press to command that the map be placed into the map-vote
-the button can only be used to a total of 3 times before you cannot use it anymore and you must wait 24 hours before using it again if of course you have not completed your challenge yet

It is important to remember that this map-challenge is different from the Current map challenge in that it is not from a select list, the map chosen is completely random.

y=2-35 kills
-Kills do not reset when the map ends; your kills will only apply to the scroll if you are on that map or use runes of easing.
-Kills can come from anything like C4, Door-busters, Spring traps, Prop-kills, Gilded weapons, etc. as long as the kill is rightful and on the correct map, it counts.

Easy: 2-5 kills
Medium: 4- 9 kills
Hard: 10 - 20 kills
Expert: 20-25 kills
Professional: 25-35 kills


If you have any ideas that are viable to replace the Current Map challenge feel free to add them in the comments.
The purpose of the current map challenges is the delay in the completion of a scroll. Taking this into account It should be something that takes a variable amount of time to do roughly that of a map change or possibly longer. It's not to be impossibly difficult, but also not too easy. If you have an idea that includes riddles make sure it can be applied to ALL maps since this is the entire purpose of eliminating the current map challenges.

Current Map Challenges: A riddle to which you solve by inputting the map that applies and look for an item on that map. Requires a map change and collective participation in voting for said map. The main issue: You have to find the item from a SELECT few maps (specifically popular maps) and these maps tend to be played over and over. Whether it is the illusion of being played over and over or not it still feels too often and for many it makes TTT more repetitive than it already is. Personally, I like to explore and play the different maps FRG has available, but I cannot stand playing the same maps over and over like going from a popular map a new map then back to the same map then a different popular map for map challenge then the next guy's map challenge, etc.

I made a suggestion about a new scroll type earlier, and this is somewhat related to that but basically its just me taking a few things I thought of while responding there and thinking of what could be done to improve current scrolls.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1: Map Challenges Remove Map Challenges from Easy/Medium/Hard and make them a thing for higher tiered scrolls. If not this, then maybe just make them rarer chance.

Reasoning: Map challenges can take alot of time where you feel as if you are accomplishing nothing (expecially when you are just grinding scrolls) leading to frustration, influence map selection, and do not feel important.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2: Add Lobby Challenges- Such as Create a Rune, use a gambling machine (will have a free spin from chal), fish 5 fish, and any others brass is interested in.

Reasoning: Adds some variety from just puzzles, riddles, and tryharding in ttt.

Drawbacks: Losing spot on a full server, server load time, not focusing on TTT which is a positive in the form of integrating the server but also technically might make a scroll impossible to do just on ttt which idk if brass wants.

----------------------------------------------------------------

3. The big one in my opinion

Seperate the challenges into different tiers and make it so you may set a challenge as active (only 1 challenge from each tier may be active at once) and only the active challenge you get progression for.

Tier 1- Easies and Mediums

Tier 2- Hards

Tier 3- Professional and Expert

Tier 4- Specials

Reasoning: This can make it so when you get a challenge you just dont feel up to doing you aren't forced to do it at the moment, but also can grind rewards from other challenges without forfeiting rewards. Also any future scroll additions would help fit somewhere here and could help many different kinds of scrolls blossom. (I wonder why I would want that teehee).

Drawback: Makes it so that you can farm easier and more to your pace, which may not be brass's intent with challs. Expecially since being able to only do one challenge at a time is sort of a loot lock so that you aren't farming too fast. Now of course this doesn't let you do challenges faster, but it makes you able to switch in and out to your liking letting you do them more efficiently if you so desire.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

4. Make runes of easings for other challenge types, but make them crafting based, and tradeable (even untradeable would be fine, but wouldn't make much sense unless the mats were drop only that made it so you couldn't just trade crafting mats)

If untradeables were wanted then something like 10 runes of easings should suffice.
Or 1 rune of easing + 1 scroll of a lower tier (yikes for them pro/expert scrolls tho)

If tradeables then maybe 2 easy scrolls + 20 fragments of the scrolls rarity (I am not sure about the rarity about pro scrolls, since I havent had one but if they are godlike maybe no easy rune for them since that scroll is supposed to be the hardest, or 1 rune of every rarity combined.

Reasoning: Good Samaritan, if Map Chall Bugged, Map No One Wants, if theres like 20 people queued infront of you for map chal, 800 damage (Not that big of a problem, but im just angru that when you use rune of easing on this it gives you 1 damage :/), sliders if you dont use 3rd party shit and actually cant do them too well, or are just too lazy.

Drawbacks: Makes the other parts of challenges faster, catching up to kill challenges. Hence causing challenges to finish faster, making loot more abundant.

----------------------------------------------

5. Make loot scale with stages so that if you get a 5 stage easy you dont just think "lemme just abandon, fucking rng man" - Feach talking to himself :'(

Reasoning: Sometimes you can just get the max amount of stages on a scroll and get dogshit loot, expecially on an easy scroll where if your decently lucky you can have 1 kill challenge (puzzle, kill, puzzle), or you can have 3 kill chall (kill, puzzle, kill, puzzle, kill) it can be almost to more than double the time of your last scroll with no benefit.

PS I know alot of people say its not always a kill puzzle pattern, and ive definitely had Puzzle Puzzle before, its most often that theres a Puzzle Kill Puzzle pattern so thats how I calculate my scroll whenever I open one, and it does me good 95% of the time.

Drawbacks: More loot overall since many easy scrolls wouldnt be abandoned, if easy with 3 stages were nerfed to make room for a 5 stage easy drop table that would suck where you get some shit ass easy loot atm pretty common (Such as 1kish coins, and 8 crates :'( ), in addition it could make people abandon 3 stage easy since they are looking for a 5 stage essentially reversing the problem, not fixing it (i dont think it should be a problem as long as it would be something more like 4/5 stage easies cut off the bottom 10% of drop pool and add 5% to the top, so the ranges would go from lets say 1-8k and 3-20 crates to something more like 2-8.5k coins and 5-21 crates).

-----------------------------------------

6. New Scroll Types (specifically Lobby-Related)

Add new scroll types that would have unique ways of dropping, and unique challenges (such as a Grim's Challenge, or The Castle's Bounty dropping only from those events as)

Potentially being in a whole new tier of challenges such as a special or something.

Reasoning: Would be cool to have event specific challenges, but having a challenge in a normal scroll that makes you do a whole hour long event without guarantee of finishing would be a little annoying. But if it was a Event Challenge where there is an understanding that this challenge scroll is for this event. Maybe adding some more ways to play, more reasons to do, and more related to lobby events would just be super cool . Ideally having not Coins as the main drop, but uniques, those events special crates, cosmetics, tags, maybe more event based things too like fishing rods, or some sort of other lobby stuff idk. Also can keep people staying with the server for longer, not just getting bored of ttt for a bit and taking a break till dailies reset or when new monthly etc, encouraging them to go to lobby and have some fun in an event.

Drawbacks: Most events don't need much extra loot if they need any sort of loot buff, and even if they do this would be a sort of unequal way of buffing it basically adding an item into drop pool that says "next run get 5-75% (Depending on how good they are) more loot". now having some unique drops form these challenges would somewhat counteract this, but it would be tricky. Also could lead to some players hard farming certain events.

------------------------------

7. More Scroll Types (non specific)

New scroll types *ambigous*

Reasoning: Would be cool to have some break ups in the easy/medium/hard/pro/expert grind, where you can add some flavor and express some unique differences in challenges that may not necessarily lead to another challenge but be a finished reward in itself, or be a whole different tree.

Challenges: Everything from Time to Balance, if ideas are needed I bet plenty of people are willing to help but in addition for the idea problem, theres balance, etc.

Specific Ideas- Monthly Challenge (A challenge that changes every month with only 1 attempt could be a riddle, puzzle or maybe even some special map/event challenges, that changes every month and there are 2-5 different variations {Once one is solved it is removed from the drop pool, giving a unique badge such as April 2019 Challenge King with each challenge having its own title along with some goodies} if failed it insta fails, and it has lets say a 1/100 chance for every daily and 1/20 chance upon daily completion.)

Hunters Challenge (A challenge which I had made a forum post about before, but essentially a challenge with more specific gun requirements on kill challs)

Bounty Challenge (A massive challenge consusting of few steps, but each step has a lot of required numbers, and are more generalized such that they could be dailies. Like 'Kill 50 Detectives" or "Knife 50 innocents" etc)

Task Master (A large challenge consisting of challenges which could be done in one round, but do not have to be done in such such as "Jihad 3 innocents", "Kill 5 People", "plant 3 c4", "Kill 2 people with a gun not in your loadout", but has many stages)

-----------------------------------------------------------

I know this is super long, and probably hard to read so I apologize and thank anyone who has taken the time to do so. If anyone has a suggestion ill add it under this with 8 or higher number . If you have any questions, or want any clarifications feel free to msg me on discord as to not have to have a back and forth on discord if you so prefer (Fe4ch#7049). Now that I realize I have spent atleast like an hour on this I shall sleep xD.

A setting that makes it so when a trait proccs it gives a notification.
Such as - Your ak has Procc'd Phoenix!

Mainly since sometimes when using a gun I feel like it never procs since its a bit of a less visibly procc (atleast to me), and it would let me know if I am just extremely unlucky or its doing its job silently. And would help me appreciate it better.

Hey uhh thanks to all who participated in my little giveaway btw, i hope to have a bigger and more abundant prize pool for next year! So start saving those clips!
