I will be straight to the point. Scrambe sucks, that is not even up to debate. His PvP system is "Fine" but everything around it sucks real bad:
Just to give an basic example, i seen once a friend trying to do Scramble, he managed to get stuck on a Impossible to get out area, even though he had 6 Dbs on him, he could not TP back, using @unstack was not solving any issues, it was a nightmare, he was soft locked inside of the chasm close to Red Pants HQ, He could not get out of there cause he coulnd't fly, and not only that even if he removed all DBS from his invetory to TP back the DBS would be stuck for all the end of the event on that chasm making it impossible to complete the event!
Another bad thing for this event is how the game handles City areas and Water areas, in the same chasm he was eventually he could find a lake, you would think the game would register that as water, and the DBS would be removed, since going into towns or moving through water removes the DBS, no, game does not register that cleary chasm lake area as Water for some reason. Another example was when i was going through the event, just getting tiny bit closer to a single settlement was enough to the game to tell me *Dragon Ball Lost* Which becomes a problem when you realize that almost 60% of the Korin Forest Map is probably just small sentlements, and the game, treats almost all of then as city, or even places that you never thought that could be considered "Cities" are flagged as cities like the Coffee House, so the event becomes an unbereable game of floor is lava when comes to getting to close to a place that you may think is flagged as a city which is stupid since, the game never tells you out loud what IS flagged as City and what is Not flagged as a city.
Then there is the fact that you can't fly, nor use Vehicles during this event, except that you can! If you start the event on a Vehicle you stay on the vehicle, until you inevitable have to get out to get the item, unless you use a Pet looting skill, if the idea for event is to make everyone be on same level without flying or vehicles, then why you can bypass that limitation by already being on a vehicle and having a looting skill for your pet? Makes as much of a sense if you ask me.
Then there's the PvP, this has more to do with the ammount of players than the actual event but, it still bad, through this entire month of playthrough i have seen only 3 other players doing this event, one was my friend, and the others were probably alt accounts of someone else getting the balls in one area and the other on another, basically removing the reasoning for a PvP event since, the person doing this could be considered the same as doing win trades, if they are in a group and were completely different individuals sure, but 90% of the cases is just a person with his alt account.
Finally there's the fact that the DBs spawn extremely far away from each other, if the idea was to make a race and make people get the balls and compete against each other, then is already wrong, because of how much you have to walk to get to the other dbs and the fact that, most likely no one else will be doing this event, you will be crawling yourself from point a to b praying that a place that you pass through is not flagged as water or city, making the journey even more frustating, not only you are playing floor is lava in the event, but you are also playing, Go there without being able to move faster! Is not interactable gameplay, is not fun gameplay, is just a drag.
Those are the biggest complains i have about scramble, is not a fun event, is overall pretty annoying and is just not fun to do, is just an exausting annoying event, and again the only times i seen people doing was with more than 4 alts probably to finish quickly, i don't know about you but, if an event needs 4 extra alt accounts to be completed it does not sound like a fun time at all.
Now that i said all of this here's proposed fixes:
1ª Fix: Remove the damn limitation from entering "Cities" and "Water" At least, remove the flags from places that should not be flagged as cities and water, like the Coffee shop i said it there.
2ª Fix: Allow the usage of Unstack if the character cleary is stuck on a certain area and cannot get out and neither get the dbs back, this should be a no-brainer but this game is pretty janky, very buggy sometimes, it has that bad Skyrim concept of allow you to move anywhere even through a mountain, the catch is that, there is no commands that will save you from getting stuck, so allowing @unstack is a necessity!
3ª Fix: Since you can bypass the rules not having the vehicle with a looting pet, just allow the usage of the Vehicles as a whole, sure, flying is a no-go since still a PvP based event, but considering that, if you get attacked, you immediatly dismounts, allowing yourself to use the vehicle on the event is not cheating, is just less annoying.
4ª Fix: Make it so all Scramble DBs only spawn in at max 3 maps, wathever these maps may be, and try to not make then so away from each other, a good way to do that is to make the flag for DBs spawning maps to be only this especific maps, and then, create especific spawn areas that are not too far from each other, this would also encourage the PvP part of the event, since, the more close to each other they are, the more are the chances of having more people there, so therefore, more PvPing on this PvP event.
5ª Fix: Less punishment for Fing up, when, most of the time, is not the player's fault is the game's fault (Like i said, with the water and city flags) the game will just remove all the DBs from your invetory and force then all into the wilds if you even think of the possibility of moving through the water, which is stupid, so, i porpose that instead of removing everything, it removes only 1 of the DBs, that way, however is collecting to get frustrated to have to go all the way to every place again that the DBS have spreaded. And again, i can't express this enough, this also helps with PvP part of the event, since that way, if there was one person going after the individual who say, 6 dbs on his invetory, instead of seeing and thinking *Oh damn, i guess i also have to go out and get everything again as well uh?* The person still interacts with pvp aspect thinking. *Well, sucks that i won't have the six, but i will at least try to get 5*
And there you have it, there is many other things that i could say but, if you notice in this thread, english is not my primary language, and i am just trying to help, there's a lot frustration to through this event, a lot of people agrees with it, is bad. But yes, there are some "simple" fixes that could make it better, but these are only my solutions to this event.
Thank you for patience for reading through all of it.
