i know this idea has been brought up a few times, but heres my version of it.

i think they should be acquired by feron, (that big guy with the horse shoe in the arcade). he will give you 5 side quest every day, (they will be randomly generated over 24 hours, and after you finish all of the ones avaliable) they are simpily 2 floored missions. there will be a small box on the right hand corner of the screen telling you what to do.(for example, kill 40 zombies within the time limit) and if you succesfully complete the side quest you will be rewarded with a certain amount of prestige (not sure how much they should give out for each tier) yet its a fun thing to do if you have nothing to do, or if you just want to burn some energy. Please tell me what u guys think, and what i should change about my sugestion. thanks for reading!

I think these would be cool

I think these would be cool except I don't think a crown reward would help the economy of this game. As a time filler, they would be cool, but they could offer a small amount of prestige or a handful of materials instead of crowns. Also, they should be mission only involving the arcade. For example, the killing zombies mission would not work if you went to a mission level, but one in the arcade would work. O only see one flaw with this though: If they are in the arcade, F2P players won't have enough daily energy to do 5 missions. Other than that, if there were some incentive to go to the arcade more, this would be great.

actually it would work for f2fpers

im pretty sure f2fpers arent dumb enough to spend all of their mist on the arcade, its all about spending your mist wisely, and also theres no point in it giving out prestige since there are prestige missions, i dont think the crown reward would damage our econony since you can do a max of 5 per day, its just like gaining profit for the jk.... so pretty much your so called flaws would just make it worse

Such missions, while an interesting idea, are also very... tedious sounding? While Spiral Knights is very much grindy if you're F2P, this takes it to an entirely new level. Your pay-outs are absurd, too.

As for Errorzinvalid, your idea is a bit better-- I think these sorts of missions would go nice under the prestige section, in addition to the current missions that we have.

At the moment, there's a significant lack of new, non-danger prestige missions, and I'd like to see more of them.

While nothing groundbreaking, it might be perfect to get some time around. Also, it would be awesome to get a score ranking or even better, direct competition between two players. Not PVP, just competitive. Like in, "Play a good old arcade-like game and the one with most points wins".

That's my suggestion though. It's fine as it is. However, Error is right. Crowns isn't the greatest option for having as reward.

Interesting idea, although the prestige rewards should be pretty small to prevent everyone's prestige from shooting up. Maybe 10 prestige per mission? Or maybe the prestige would only be rewarded after completeing the third and fifth side quest.
