    Well, I don't think the Wynncraft staff were extreme Astrology-hooked in the first place. I believe you can tell that fact clearly by the Aquarius mistake. If they were really into Astrology, they would have (AND IT IS A GREAT IDEA, AND I REALLY HOPE THEY DO IT) added a couple of quests of something more special for zodiacs and astrology. That's why zodiac pieces were only rare loots and mob drops. For all I know, they could've been aiming towards astronomy or something. That's also why they have a diverse audience-to suggest more ideas in the areas that the Wynncraft staff did not have as much knowledge about... They should really add more to Zodiac pieces... maybe a couple of weapons and quests too :D.

    P.S. #Virgo

    I'm upset that they decided to go with dumb Greek animals, instead of more badass Native American animals.

    This is insanely well written! I even learned something while reading this post. Had no clue that Aquarius was the water BEARER, not the water being. Thank you for writing this! Aquarius is best sign 10/10

    I'm a Virgo and my girlfriend is a Capricorn, and when I saw what the two armor pieces gave I was pretty disappointed too. I like occasionally looking at the zodiac sign things when someone I follow on Twitter retweets one, so I know like very little about them but still have some knowledge. I was very very confused with Virgo's lore and stats. I was also confused as to why water oriented when it's an earth sign. It would've been cool to use a Capricorn, Taurus (which I'm thinking of anyways), and Virgo with my earth build, mainly because of my girlfriend and I's signs. Sadly, Virgo has like no relation at all to the actual sign (I think) and Capricorn is more water and water build oriented rather than earth.
    I also might've laughed a bit as well when reading how you said Capricorns are stereotypically smart and stuff, because my girlfriend is a huuuge nerd

    You have a girlfriend and you're playing minecraft? Get your ass off the computer and go out with her :P

    Also I just find it amusing in general because most of this community is full of 12-year olds

    She kinda lives 5,000 miles away from me and she's currently asleep, so it's a bit hard to be with her at all times :P

    This is an informational debunking from a real scientist and science teacher. I am presenting nothing but some cold, hard, facts.

    Astrology: a body of ancient contradictory, exaggerated, and unprovable claims, based upon an over-reliance on confirmation, rather than rigorous attempts at refutation. Astrology has an abundance of the absence of systematic practice, and it is therefore an irrationally developed theory. Astrology is the practice of a belief system that is being deceptively portrayed as science. Astrology was, historically, a religious belief.

    What is astrology based on? The twelve signs of the zodiac.
    What is the zodiac? The band of constellations, +/- 8-9 degrees about the ecliptic.
    What is the ecliptic? The path that the sun appears to take around the earth.
    How was the zodiac made? The ecliptic was divided into 12 equal segments of 30 degrees each.
    How many constellations are on the zodiac? According to most purveyors of astrology, 12.
    How many are really there, today? Thirteen.
    What constellation is missing from most astrologer's beliefs? Ophiuchus.
    How long has Ophiuchus been on the ecliptic? Centuries.
    When did some astrologers start to "realign" their scamtables? 2011.
    Why do refer to astrological publications and predictions as "scamtables"? Astrology has no basis in scientific fact, therefore, any predictions made by astrologers have no basis in fact.

    To anyone who does not want to read all this, i will sum it up for you. First part: I know pretty much everything a ou astrology. Second part: all the pieces could have been better, if the staff were not stupid and put some thought into these pieces of armor. Third part: this staryotypical "astrologist" explains the earlier stated thesis of the items ability to be better.

    I bet this person is a full on Weaboo

    Awesome rant. I finally didn't waste 5 minutes of my life reading something that would've come from a 9-year-old. Great job.

    <3

    And I really like Libra too! That's why I wasted 30le buying it!

    I'm just cringing that it's 2016 and someone still believes that star constellations somehow affects how you act in life. Other than going with the historical reception and influence of Zodiacs (which I admit could have been better) it's completely bonkers.

    You can believe what you want to believe, and I'll believe what I want to believe. My love for astrology in no way affects your life, so why does it matter?
