I've often thought of ways agility training could be made more immersive, and think a water park themed course in the Kharidian Desert ticks all the boxes for possible implementation to the game.
I know right away people will make the point of there already being an agility course in the pyramid located in the Kharidian desert, but I don't think the addition of a water park course would negatively impact this as the pyramid has a bit of a unique money-making aspect to it which I believe is quite useful for ironmen and serves a purpose most other courses do not offer.
I haven't thought the concept of this course through from start to finish, but a few early thoughts are:
- A slide obstacle
- Platforms to be jumped across such as lillypads (failable)
- A fountain which possibly launches the player (possibly a 100% success rate obstacle perhaps at the end of the course)
- A monkey bar obstacle above some piping hot water (failable)
- A wall with rock-climbing handles on possibly with 3 climbing routes; left, middle & right with a fountain at the top that moves left to right on a timer, shooting water out vertically downwards causing the player to slip if the players route is timed poorly with the fountains sequential route (failable - possibly over-engineered with the fountain part but I think it sounds more complex than it would be in-game as it'd just be a case of clicking one of the three routes based on where the fountain is at the time)
- A surfing obstacle with waves possibly mirroring the above sequential 3 lane format of the fountain, with one distinctive wave causing you to be washed back to the start of the course and take damage (failable - or just a more simple, unfailable wave surfing obstacle)
