Minigames are cool, but some of them have aged not quite as nice and are in need of some love. This thread is a compilation of a bunch improvements/suggestions for Minigames and Minigame-ish activities.

Tai Bwo Wannai Cleanup
- Make it possible to use a Machete from the inventory, just like Axes and Pickaxes.
- Increase the damage that Broodoo Victims take from a potion dose to 25~30.
- Increase Woodcuttting xp from cutting jungle.
- Change xp for repairing jungle fences to either crafting or fletching xp.
- Add a small chance to receive Uncut Dragonstones and Uncut Onyx from Jungle Gem Rocks. These would of course be quite rare, especially the Onyx.

Underwater Agility and Thieving
- After the first time looting a clam/chest, you have to spamclick it to get optimal mermaid tears.
Change it so that our character will automatically keep attempting to steal until the clam/chest moves again.
- Make it possible to swim in deep water while holding a brine sabre or trident.
- Make Lobstrosities unaggressive if the player has a Merfolk Trident equipped.
- Re-evaluate the tear cost of fossils/spores in Mairin's market. They seem rather overpriced.
- Perhaps add a merfolk-tail item as a cosmetic alternative to flippers?

Drift Net Fishing
- Remove the numulite fee on banking fish. Slightly reduce the numulite drops from drift nets to compensate.
- Make it possible to use temporary skill boosts to get higher-level fish.

Shooting Stars
- Reduce the rate at which stars deplete when a lot of players are mining it.
DONE!

Trouble Brewing
- Increase the point-cap per round from 100 to 500. However, a player may only deposit each resource up to 100 times per game. (So players cannot get more than 100 points per game by just dumping water)
- Add grape seeds to the reward shop.
- Add left-click options to boilers, kettles, sweetgrub mounds, fires, sabotaged stuff and workbenches.
- Remove the sabotage mechanic. Instead, objects will spontaneously combust! Fixing them rewards some points. Bridges will never catch fire.
- Greatly increase xp obtained for performing actions in the minigame.
- Increase points gained for depositing Sweetgrubs, Colored Water Bowls and Scrapey Bark.
- Buff The Stuff.

Barbarian Assault
- Give the Penance Skirt a +1 ranged strength bonus.
- Give Runner Boots and the Runner Hat negative weight.
- Improve the defensive bonuses of Penance Gloves.
- Add a bank chest in the far north of the basement, so it's easier to change gear between waves.
- Make getting items from statues faster.
- Add a left-click "heal" option to teammates if the player is a Healer.
- Automatically hide attack options on Penance Fighters/Ranges if the player is not an Attacker.

Soul Wars
- Remove the "attack" option from ghostly players.

Guardians of the Rift
- Guarantee players to get 1 pearl per pull to reduce the amount of RNG. Reduce the amount to random pearls so average pearl/game rates stay consistent with how it is now.
- Add the Abyssal Lantern to the store, LIKE HOW IT WAS ORIGINALLY POLLED.
DONE!

- Remove the Law Talisman from the loot table.
- Increase the fragment mining xp cap from 250 to 500.

Mage Arena
- Make god staves able to autocast their respective god spells.
- Remove the "minigame" classification as it is not really a minigame.

Pest Control
- Increase the attack speed of the Void Mace by 1 to be consistent with the other maces.

Mage Training Arena
- Make the Maze Guardian "run" when pulled.
- Remove the "equip" option from items in the Alchemy Arena.
- Give players their rune rewards when they leave an area so they don't take up inventory space while inside the area.
- Change the teleport chamber to grant 4 points per completion rather than 18 points every 5 completions, so players don't have to do mazes in sets of 5.
- Add more mazes to the teleport chamber for variety.
- Automatically move the player to the next maze without needing to go through the maze guardian dialogue every time.
- Allow players to enter the areas and gain points without needing to carry a Progress Hat.

Aerial fishing
- Make Fish Offcuts / Fish Chunks interchangeable.
- Give Pearly Fishing Rods a small buff. Perhaps remove the need for bait, as the sparkly pearls attract fish.

Volcanic Mine
- Reduce the volcanic ash required for the enhanced Fertilize Soil spell from 2 to 1.

Chompy Hunting
- Grant 25 Hunter experience when plucking a Chompy/Jubbly bird.
- Make it possible to make Wild Pie (or Wilder Pie?) with Jubbly Meat.
- Jubbly Birds could possibly count as multiple kills since they take much more effort to kill.
- Let players transmog their Chompy Chick into a Jubbly Chick if they have unlocked all Chompy hats.
- Remove the Daily Arrow diary reward from Rantz. Instead, make it so that each diary level increases the minimum amount of ogre shafts/ arrowheads by 1 per tier.

Champion's Challenge
- Give the Champion's Cape infinite teleports to the Champion's Guild. (Identical to the Chronicle teleport)

Heck yeah, love a lot of these suggestions. The general idea of:

- Improve xp rates for the older minigames
- Improve rewards / consistency of rewards a bit

Seems fairly solid. Inspired by our chompy post, also would love to see catching rats for Rat Pits or Hell Rat Behemoth give hunter XP.

Some other posts that have suggested mini games:
- I'd love a big Tai Bwo Wannai Cleanup rework, since it's pretty broken (eg people just going for gout tuber & ignoring the rest of the minigame). My reddit post & discord post .
- Cross mini game reward points & highlighted minigames post on this forum

Thanks! As for Tai Bwo Wannai, Lord Drakan actually had a suggestion for that.
That being, the fence around the village does not degrade. And if the player fully repairs it, they get a big xp drop and a reward. I think something like that would be cool.
