So, I was driving home from work and all the sudden I got this idea.

This is a quest for a new song, the Baroque song from Jabba's palace as played by Max Rebo is what I had in mind but anything would work to this end.

Ok, so first step is talking to Sigrix Slix in the Nashal Cantina where he gives you a request(yes this is from a spice addict) for a recording of Max Rebo. We all know that he's playing at Jabba's Palace which is where you head to, he's in the throne room so you need to get in there. If you already have access you don't need to do this next step.

*No access to the throne room- talk to Reelo and in his text change it so that you have the options : "Ok" and "I'm here to tune Max Rebo's Nalargon" When you select to tune the nalargon he asks you to play a song much like the quest for Western, after a few bars he tells you that you can go in.*

So, we're in the throne room and you go talk to Max who tells you, "If you can get the stuff to record, I'll let you record me. I know a tech in the Bestine Cantina. Ask for*NPC name/Bob*."

Now you go to Bestine's cantina where you meet up with this guy,Bob. "Hi, Max sent me to see you about a recording device." Bob tells you, "I'm a little busy right now but here is the schematic to make one. Come back when you've made it and I'll show you how touse it, now run along before I get fired."

Now you have a new temporary schematic which is going to require one of oursound recording devices(musician), a memory module(Master Artisan), 10 chromium aluminum and20 metal.

So, you find the parts and put it together. Go back to Bob and he tells you, "that should be all you need to know, good luck!."

Head back to Jabba's Palace and talk to Max Rebo again, he gives you the recording and you're headed back to Talus where you find the drugged up Sigrix. "I have the recording for you, here you go!" Sigrix, "Thanks man, here are some creds and I found this piece of music for you in my collection."

Voilà! That is a simple quest for a new song.

What do you all think of something like that?

**Swoon!**

This is SO great! Reasons to participate in interplanetary content, alternate access to Jabba's throne room, new music, and interdependence between professions. If the devs could make quests for new music as immersive as this sounds, I would be all over it like me on pie!

Very cool! How about if it was a segment in a series of quests, where previous segments lead to giving you access to Jabba's?

Oooh! What if you could do "buddy" quests...like one dancer and one musician, doing a quest together?

This would be awesome. My suggestion is after you reach Jabba and do the quest, you start working for Max and work your way up to a performance for Jabba. Each quest would give you a new song. They would have to be real star wars music,not the butchered SW1-4 we have now.

Or maybe there could be A Saga of Music quest at Jabbas palace where you could geta song or twofrom each movie like: 1-Duel of the fates 2-EP2 love melody(can't remember name) 3-Battle of the Heros 4-Cantina Band/Star Wars Theme 5-Imperial March 6-Emperors theme/Ewok music. Can't remember what the Baroquesong sounds like or which movie it was in(The song added in EpVI?) but it would be where it is supposed to be.

Great quest idea Alligatorboogaloo, if only all quests in SWG could be like this.

great idea except if we havent done the Jabba Themepark we cant go in the throne room.. sure this is no problem for those that have done the themepark already or for the entertainer dabblers that have some combat skills but how am i supposed to complete the themepark as a pure entertainerif i cant even wear armor or wield a weapon better than a CDEF?

I think the point would be a separate, parallel entertainer only method to get in not just something for entertainers who already have access. It was outlined in the first post.

Thanks for the opinions guys and gals. I forwarded a copy to Thunderheart and Tiggs via PM, but who knows what will happen. Maybe Aleyo or Esharra could mention this as an idea for some new entertainer content. *wink, wink* Thanks folks for the ideas, I'll revise it some and repost sometime but keep the ideas coming until then. If the devs have a hard time thinking of things, we can write it ourselves and they just code it perhaps...it'll take all the "I don't like this" out of the process IF they'll listen to us.

Very awesome suggestion.

This could be part of a non-combat Jabba access quest too. While they're at it, they could make non-combat versions of the other theme parks for those who are pure entertainers, pure crafters, or a hybrid of those (non-combatants). There is a lot of stuff in the game for combatants to do, stuff I'm sure ents would love to do if they didn't have to participate in combat. Why not run parallels for things like the Rebel Themepark or the Imperial Themepark or Nym's?

Awesome suggestion - and the best part is, it should be relatively easy to implement. After all, they are supposed to have a team to work on quests, and this looks like something they could set up in an afternoon without any additional programming work at all.

I suggest posting this on the Quest forum as well, because that is whatthat board isfor - for posting new quest ideas (even if most people don't use it for that purpose)

Sounds like a really cool idea for a quest. I'd love to see many more involved quests like these, and I think that's what the content team's supposed to be bringing us. And yeah, I'd love to see this extended to provide a series of quests that you need to do to actually get access to Jabba's throne room

. Cool idea!
