Rant on the update

Not gonna be too salty soo
here are the good things:
- Re-Iding
- Sprint bar
- New Quests
- Dungeon Reworks
- Powders
- Better Mob XP/Loot
- New Items
- Better Economy

Bad things
- Dxp no longer affects quests

Counter-Good-Things
- Sprint bar uses fast af and regens slow af
- Only 6 new quests
- There is no good dungeon for like lv 90 ...
- Powders are weak / weakening weapons

About things in more detail
Dxp does no longer affects quest that's why the xp of quests was ~doubled , BUT
only in the like 80+ area
and if you do the maths it's a MASSIVE LOSS OF XP

for example;
Wynnexcavation Side D used to get you from 70 to 80 easily with txp and to 77 with dxp
When I did WynnEx D like yesterday it got me from 70 (99%) to 71 (55%)
That's a HUGE change; too huge IMO

Qira Hive used to give 1m xp with xp and dxp about 4.2m
But the Hive's xp was buffed to 3.75m no further rant there
It's the likely most buffed quest but still under the xp you could reach
which is seemingly unfair :I

Now you only get like a half level from a quest and have to grind the rest which takes even with decent xp armor too long
not to mention the 'missing' levels (90-95; 97-100) where you can only grind
and it takes awfully long

How to solve the 'Missing' Levels / 'Missing xp:

1. Add like a ToL;
- a pretty efficient,
- Arena Style,
- Grinding Spot for Especially xp
2. Simply make dxp/xp armor affect quests again
- #MakeQuestsGreatAgain


Last Words:
As you can see there is a decent list on the Pro- Side but the Con-Side affects the game more IMO

Spoiler: TL;DR

No tl;dr for you, read it.

 

Bad things
- Dxp no longer affects quests= Greedy.

Counter-Good-Things
- Sprint bar uses fast af and regens slow af=Horses.
- Only 6 new quests=New update, chill
- There is no good dungeon for like lv 90 ...= They'll add ones soon.
- Powders are weak / weakening weapons= Tier 6 aren't...

Dxp affecting quests was a bug

Dungeons are hard to make
Quests are hard to make

Instead of ranting about the update do something about it maybe try joining the CT and see how hard it is for them

Dont like the update?
Gtfo

 

I like nr. 1, freezing heights is too messy and big. Nr. 2 was nerfed for a reason, not gonna explain, if you don't know what i mean too bad im lazy af

 

why are you complaining... .-.

 

Wait, WynnExcavation only gets you one level instead of 10? That's good, because levelling up 10 times in the level 70s is way too op.
Seeing as they buffed mob xp, I don't see a problem, because now grinding isn't as boring and you don't rely on quests.

Let's look at mob xp.
It was buffed to 3-4x xp.
But, many people used double xp for quests.
Now you can't use them for quests, they are only useful for grinding.
That buffs the mob xp to 6-8x xp. That's a lot of xp.

 

Noone ever really uses dxp(NOW) ,____,

Exactly what I was thinking

________________________________

1. Special Ability is gone when switching weapon/ switching to Horse
2. Horses Are 34+
3. What if you were in a fight...?

1. They pretty much remove the whole neutral damage...
2. If there is no neutral damage the damage added is just... ridicoulous

 

I've seen no change in the frequency of double xp bombs.

 

Because this is a forum where we can discuss, debate, make complaints etc.

 

Dxp not affecting quests is a good thing in my opinion, because before that, when there was dxp people just rushed to finish quests when there was dxp and whoever had the best xp gear normally leveled the fastest. When people rushed to finish quests during dxp people just rushed that, they didn't actually try to enjoy this server as much as they do now, but I understand your opinions.

 

Funny thing, people actually did enjoy quests.... They just have other classes to rush through to get a high level

 

sorry, but his points really suck

 

not really .-.

 

I don't see a problem here

 

Good thing :

-No longer having a requirement of armour to get the maximum out of quests, making questing a lot more enjoyable
Quests also give double the xp they used to and are now by default in "double xp"​

I'm not joking I still feel anxious when I claim a quest because I'm scared of losing a ton of xp because I'm not wearing "special armour".

You know you can use your spell without sprinting and let sprint bar regen, and your mana regen while you're sprinting, right ?
Granted it's not always effective since not everybody has mana regen, but it's still a buff for melee builds anyways.

Really, you're going to complain about the lack of quests in this update ?
You know quests are fucking hard to make right ? And bloody hell, "only" 6 quests ?
Only 6 quests .-.

^point above

Maybe against mobs with total element immunity like Qira (and the fabled Touroto), but it's a buff to almost every weapon.
Weapon lacks power ? Put some powder on your armour
Weapon lacks diversity ? Put some powders on it
Hell, my Thrundacrack can still deal 12k to Bob's Reincarnation with an Uppercut, even with his amazing elemental defences.

I think the crux of your complaint is how you still want to gain levels quicker. It's not going to happen. It's like wanting to get rich instantly in an MMO, it's not going to happen if you're impatient like this, MMOs are and always will be about the grind and how rewarding reaching the max level is.

 

I don't know if anyone has brought this up or mentioned it so I may be wrong, but I do remember someone, a while back, telling me that getting that much levels from a single quest was op. It was even like that when gavel first came out and there was txp and alot of the old-new quests were giving people lots of levels. I even remember a friend of mine messaging me in game telling me he got from 92 to 97 or 98 from doing fantastic voyage. So I'm pretty sure having that much of an xp bonus was a little over the top on quest xp. I don't think it was intentional for wynn D to give that much xp. It would be nice if a GM or someone could confirm that to me so I don't sound dumb over here lol.

 

The actual XP reward from WynnExavation Site D is still ridiculously high for its level, especially when you factor in that there's three quests at that level as well.

And, Hive's XP was boosted to 4500000. Not 3750000.

 

Has anyone here tried making a new class since the gameplay update?
SO MUCH FORCED GRINDING.
Gotta grind at level 5-8, 8-10, 10-12, 12-14, 18-20, 20-21, 21-23, and more. None of the quests level you up, you have to grind almost
EVERY
SINGLE
LEVEL.

Sure, the higher levels might be easier now, but the early levels are slow, boring, and just so much worse than before since the gameplay update!!

 

all the ppl in this thread saying WE:D nerf is good as it forces u to level up



probably didn't replay it this update

 

I don't see the problem. I always grinded from level 5-14 anyway. After that, it gets a bit easier (though there are decent grind spots until level 15+, where it starts to turn bad into you do Sayleros' quest).
