The Level Cap Has Been Raised, How About Some New Spell Upgrades? [200+ Supporters]

First things first: PLEASE tell me if new spell upgrades have already been announced, so I can shut up

Anyway, now that the level cap has been raised, the last spell upgrade you get (level 66) is only about 2/3 of the way to the level cap (though in terms of xp requirements, it's not even half). What we need for a follow-up update is A FOURTH or FIFTH spell upgrade.

Now here are some suggestions for possible spell upgrades (4th/5th)base stats will only be listed if they are changed

Upgrade 5 @ level 92
+Encouragement: Gives the player and nearby allies increased attack speed for 3 minutes





Thats all I have to suggest for now. Though of course if these were to be implemented they would need further balancing AND certain in game items would need balance related tweaks. Thank for reading this post and share ideas and criticism down below.

EDIT: I put the level requirements in a fairly messy fashion as a way to make upgrades more consistent, rather than getting two or three upgrades at a time every 10/15 levels. However, these level requirements just like the suggestions themselves are very much subject to change.

Edit/Changelog 1 as of January 29th: Added in Iceburn upgrade to ice snake, as there had been no level 5 upgrade previously. Also nerfed Encouragement, Gaseous cloud, and Backstab.

 

Yes, this would be pretty darn cool. +1 supporter

 

Make the level requirements be consistent with the old pattern, so everything scales perfectly.
1st: Lv56 and Lv76
2nd: Lv66 and Lv86
3rd: Lv76 and Lv96
4th: Lv86 only

Other than that, I'm very satisfied on how reaching higher levels rewards players with even more powerful spells.

 

I tried to spread out the level requirements so upgrades would be more consistent rather than just a burst of upgrades every ten levels. :)

 

I would feel sorta messy for me, as how the level requirements for the current tiers scales up every 10 levels.

 

I'm The Reaver and I approve this message.

________________________________

Yeah but then we would miss out on all those other great ideas he put down! Screw math! Unlock them all at level 1! :P

 

The spell upgrade pattern is not just upgrading every 20 levels...
(Unlock) (1st upgrade) (2nd)
+15 lvl + 20 lvl
1 16 36
11 26 46
21 36 56
31 46 66


If you follow simple math, that means you first jump 15, then 20 meaning that it adds 5 more levels than last time, so it would be more like this:

1 - 16 - 36 - 61 - 91
11 - 26 - 46 - 71 - 101
21- 36 - 56 - 81 - 111
31- 46 - 66 - 91 - 121


As I hope you see, if you follow this pattern, only a fourth spell upgrade would be the way to go, and you wouldn't get multiple upgrades at once after level 46

Lol math is the best isn't it

 

Yes it could be nice but give them time to patch bugs and celebrate chrismas with their family they got life too xD
I'm pretty sure they already got some idea for this or they're maybe already working on this

 

bump xd .-.

 

I like this idea.
But assassins vanish upgrade 4 backstab is a bit TOO OP. Imagine reducing Death's hp by 15%. Maybe make the backstab reduce UP to 450-550% of your base damage. That would help balance it a lot.
Other than that, perfect!

In the end, they all feel pretty well Balanced to me, especially looking at the Upgrades of the other classes.

 

Sounds very cool, love the assassin ones too. It would give me more encouragement to level up too +1 Supporter :D

 

I like this idea. +1 supporter

 

Really like the general idea of this! New spell upgrades would be a really fresh and positive addition to Gavel

 

yes pls I doubt my normal meteor spamming can kill large groups of mobs-actually Intelligence makes it op but idc add this pls

 

Good idea
+1 support

 

Love the idea! However, I'd rather new spells were introduced instead.

 

I mean, adding a new element to the existing ones. For instance, turning Q (removing it's prior function) as one of the combo variables. L+Q+R = New Spell, whatever it may be. And omg, Jumla o,o

Also, if you're looking for new spell ideas, here are a couple threads: https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/new-class-ideas.99168/ & https://forums.wynncraft.com/threads/spell-tree-builds.99211/#post-1081139

 

The only way to do this would be to make the combos 4 long
RRRR
RRRL
RRLL
RLLL
RRLL
RLLR
RRLR
RLRR

Granted that would allow for an extra 4 spells and that would be WAY to many.

I would prefer an upgrade or 2 for the 4 we have instead of extra ones.
