1.14.1 The Gameplay Update - Changelog

While /kill for transportation needs to be fixed, I don't think this was a good way to do so. In my mind, a better way would be to make death by suicide cost 4 SP, but normal death 2. Something like that.

 

Fite me

 

so we all restart the game or no i don't undersand

 

But high ids are also worth less... if you can go around fixing terrible items, so can everyone else... and this announcement most likely already brought up the price of bad id mythics and lowered good id mythics. So unless you have immense luck or scam people, you really cant use this to your advantage effectively. Also have you seen the economy? Any slightly desired decent id legendary is going for tons because sellers keep trying to convince buyers that a 75 sp blue mask is worth over a stack. The economy can only go uphill

 

No, the beta server is completely restarted. As far as I can tell, you keep your progress on the normal server.

 

Please notice that the Beta testers won't be picked up on Twitter anymore. You can register at this address: https://goo.gl/forms/9BtCaL7PeXxfHWJn1

Good luck to all, and happy beta testing for the lucky winners.

________________________________

Of course! They always want the beta testers to restart from the beginning, but when the update will be out, you won't have to.

 

First beta test wave has happened! Congrats to everybody who got whitelisted!

 

gg made a twitter for nothing... rip

Same actually xD

 

The update overall is good. But the sp thing is the stupidest thing I've seen in a while. I'll admit the % chance may be low but even 1% means that you WILL loose your items. And hypotheticaly If you have all your sp and just loosing one increases % of loosing items. Then if you're high level it's litterally not worth it to do anything. I have a lot of valuable stuff and I don't want to loose it. And don't say that I might still get them back, even if chunk doesn't unload the time that takes for items to despawn is like 2 minutes.
The soul point thing IS the worst thing that happend to Wynncraft since EULA. You could say that it adds an edege to the gameplay, that you now need to be more careful, BUT if we take to consideration that by following "Schrödinger's cat" thingy (it's about cat that is both dead and alive at the same time, before it can be determined which ever it is: that's VERY poor explanation), you can hypotheticaly get Mythic in any chest, AND it's even possible to get a mythic in every chest (although the chance is pretty much non-existant). It's then entirely possible to lost your items at 1% chance.
TL;DR SP thing is stupid and adds more negatives then, positives. And will make the game pretty stressful for eveybody (the school year is starting I don't want MORE stress in my life, the stress from school made my hair go grey, I don't want this kind of stress). Also since tp scrolls take your sp away and sometimes while tp you might die from fall dmg, it breakes the game even harder.
This proves to me once again that Salted is sadistic cow, that enjoys our pain. First they release Gavel (Which CLEARLY wasn't finished, and very rushed [like no man's sky amirite?]), take away features. And when the follow up update is to come out, it makes the game unenjoable. AND it isn't even the full follow up update, the work so far goes to the NEXT update. Wynncraft starts to feel like AAA company that doeasn't release the full game, and instead makes follow up updates, or goes completely insane, *cough, KONAMI, cough* and decides that the game wasn't difficult enough so they go from easy to X-TREME levls of difficulty, "Let's take awya txp from yt's like we did with VIP's, that will please our psychotic god Salted".
Also I'm very mad about ??? quest, becouse it took me a long time to figure that quest out, and I was SO HAPPY when I finished it. But now it's like "You did this very hard quest? WEll f*ck you! Now it's community event". And what really pisses me off is that once comminity figures it out (which let me tell you it won't take long time. Max a week), people will be able to comeplete it with putting NO effort into it. And they'd be on the same level as everybody else regarding this quest whetever they did it all by themselves, or just read it all on a forum post. >=(

 

Yay same too but that's ok I think :p

________________________________

Uh... I don't really like that SP thing neither, but come on! You can't say all the things you're saying: Gavel wasn't rushed AT ALL, and they put A LOT OF EFFORT on every single update they launch... So you're not honest with yourself when you say that, and you might hurt those Builders/GM/Staff people who worked a lot on that update and don't deserve to be treated like that... So next time be a little nicer.

Wait, I think I misread it, is there a chance to drop all items when even at 10 SP?

 

I understand that a lot of effort went into Gavcl, and I do appreciate the update, I really do! But saying that Gavel wasn't rushed is just lying to your face. I rember from update video Grian talking about village with 2 towers, and that IS a quest, as you can see on http://wynnapps.tk/item/ there's an item that requires that quest to be completedt to use it. And there are others. The entire Realm of Light has NOTHING in it. It just has the "The Realm of Light" quest in it, and dungeon that STILL haven't come out, also the Dulluhan's castle. Can you enter it? No, no you can't. I mean Realm of Light looks nice. But I would prefer ugly car with good engine, to THE most bueatiful car in existace with hamsterwheel as engine. So yeah Gavel was rushed.

________________________________

To my understanding yes. Even 1% means that there's a chance for your items to drop. AND ther's ever extremely small possibility for ALL your items to drop.

 

I'm pretty sure that you only start dropping identified and unidentified items at 5 SP.

 

HYPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

 

Powders: How they work, how to add them:
- Everyone is looking forward to them! New abilities, empire builder and lunar spine are actually useful, You can be an OP lvl 1.
Revamps: Reworked towns, V.S.S. Seaskipper, mobs give more xp
- Reworked towns: Awesome, a new "better look" to them, looking foreward to new Rymek.
- VSS Seaskipper - Everyone is looking forewards to long boat trips being forgotten.
- More XP - DXP for most quests is awesome, and tons of XP and items from mobs will make grinding times much shorter and more enjoyable.
Quests: New quests, reworked “???”
- New quests: I am not looking fowards to escorting a 1 health mob across the canyon
- ??? A community project and a great puzzle for my brain to dawlde on.
Dungeons: Reworked dungeon, dungeon rewards, keys, corrupted dungeons, altars, sprint bar
- Reworked dungeons: new fun puzzles, challenging boss fights, what more could I ask for?
- Dungeon rewards: I don't know enough to comment on this.
- Keys: yay harder to even start a dungeon!
- Corrupted dungeons: again, I don't know enough to comment on this.
- Altars: Well. where can I find the 5 tablets again?
- Sprint bar: Finally I can tp and sprint at the same time!

General Changes:

• Remove YT rank XP bonus: Less debates and necroposts!
  
• Mobs can now have more than 1 spell: gl on qira everyone!
  
• Mobs can now spawn other mobs when killed: looking foward to nesting spiders in nivla forest!!!
• New guild territories for Gavel: It was coming, it came. You know what else is coming? JOHN CENA the fix(after 500 more rage posts.)
  
• New mobs to defend your territories: Who's looking fowards to hiring qira?
  
• Merchants skin. They can be any entity now, not just villagers: Cool, I guess.
  
• Boats will pop back into your inventory when you dismount them: I only need 1 boat now? This is revolutionary!

Items:

• Most legendaries have been buffed: As has the economy!!!
  
• We now have about 400+ more items! Maybe even more: Just wait, did I read that right? Even more than upwars of 400? does that mean infinite items?
  
• New mythics: Well, I don't have a chance of getting them anyway, so I guess this is ok.
  
• Nerfed jester sets to make it less abusable: hope max XP didn't change.

New Features:

• Reidentifications! You can reidentify any items you want as many time as you want, but the price will go up exponentially every time. Simply talk to an identifier and identify it again just like you would with any item
• AWESOME! something that will actually bring down inflation for a a while!!!

• Soul Points system has been reworked. Now instead of dropping everything at 2 SP and less, you will have a chance to drop your item the less soul points you got. Don’t worry, nothing of value should drop until you reach 5 SP, and horses will never drop.
• Ok, but can whatever is if your 1st slot never drop as well?

• Swarms! Yea, some of you guys were expecting that because we decided to add swarms info on the stats page. Although, we couldn’t test it with 60 players, so if everything goes well during the beta, it will be added. Let’s pray it does: A swarm is the thing that made my friends ditch a year or so ago. I got 3 levels and the only got 1. But, I hope they come back.

Website:

Now, those changes might not come on the exact same day, but we got a few new things for the website…

• Updated map! Will now show your position, your friend’s position (if both players are friends) and your guild’s position on the map, as long as they are on the same server as you: Please don't let people see you is they friend you but you don't friend them back! They spam me enough already.
  
  
• Updated item guide! You can now select filters and see much more details: WynnApps is still better.
