    i loved the gameplay update beta where almost everyone was low level and we were doing dungeons and shit
    it was pretty fun
    i'd love if there was like a special server that resets monthly to see how far we can go or something

    Here's why this idea will reek havoc.

    Wynncraft is in general doesn't have the option to either choose between Quests only and Grinding only. Before the gameplay update or Gavel, I remember there was a quest level 64? and once you finish it, it gives you half of your XP bar and the rest you gotta move on. From 64.5 to 68 to complete ToL and get 75 from there. That was absolute hell, sitting and farming for hours/days to get to 68.

    Now they added good but not decent grinding spots and removed some. It takes even longer to reach the 80/90+ quests and wynn doesn't even have generous grinding spots. The Dcave is nice but in order to farm, you either need a party which will slow down the process since every mob dies in an instant, or solo but without actual XP armor so you can live.

    I grinded to level 99 and stopped, when Corkus came out, I thought the quests will level me up to 100 and It was very close. You can barely see XP on my 100 meter when I finished the last Corkus quest (98).

    People spent 600+ hours to get their classes all to 100. It took me a year to get my Warrior to 100. If wynn resets, they could possibly face a lawsuit for wasting and stealing time/hardwork and money.

    This could be considered stealing from players. Let's say I buy 20 DXP bombs in the Easter sale, then use them all grinding in the demon cave from 95-99, then the next day the server resets. What do I do about my wasted DXPs?

    ________________________________
    There would most likely be an announcement at least a month beforehand that there would be a reset, so you using the DXP bombs were your loss since the server was resetting anyway. I think DXP would be transferred over when the server resets.

    I made a thread about this a while ago asking what the community thought about a 'Hard Reset'. The general answer was 'No'.

    Here are some of the best reasons I've found against a 'Hard Reset' from my thread:

    no.
    Wynncraft is not a seasonal server, there are many, many reasons why.

    To do a full reset we would need different quests, otherwise this is pointless 'funwise'.
    Content is the main point on Wynn and we've already played it, the only replay value is inside of different classes, meaning that a reset would just be a nuisance.
    Without new content it isn't fun at all.
    For other non-rpg servers, resets are okay because the main point of the game is to get the highest amount of resources with the smallest amount of work, resets are necessary because new players have no chance to reach the top.
    The point of Fantasy MMORPGs is to complete the game, and explore the world, a reset only serves to make this task more tedious, especially after you've already done this once.

    Also, Wynncraft doesn't even have enough content to support its current level cap, why reset before the game is even finished?

    And on the economy, this won't fix it at all, this will just make the currently expensive items completely inaccessible.
    Why?
    With a reset, all those items disappear, they become collectibles again. People who find them will be using them, and certainly not selling them.
    And when they do, the rarity will make the prices just as expensive, it will just look lower because there's less money ingame.
    It's called proportionality, less is more, technically it won't cost 'as much' because of the reset, but it will still be expensive in that market because of the difficulty of obtaining that amount.

    And on top of the two downsides, this would obliterate the community, people don't like to see their time and effort wasted.
    Imagine working for a company with actual upward momentum, (crazy right? just pretend).
    You make it to CEO, making 1mil a year, then suddenly, they fire you and rehire you at the starting wage, 7.25/hour.
    You'd quit right then and there.

    Every single 'upside' you presented was false.
    They're all downsides, this won't happen now and probably never will.
    Fantasy RPGs are not meant to reset, they're like buffets, you finish and then you leave, with a few people trying to get 'their money's worth' by staying for way too long.

    Amen, I'd say there'd be complete carnage but.. every1 would be lev. 1, so there would be alot of uneffective punches being thrown, but ultimately no carnage :(

    No. Just simply put, no. There's a reason why I quit practically EVERY server when it gets reset. It's a cheap way of saying "oh, let me wipe away all your accomplishments and make you suffer through 5 more years of torture, to the point where you contemplate life itself." The community backlash would be tremendous (as most have said), and the server would die out. Besides, there's another way for this that's completely optional: make a new class. You get all the things you would get in a reset (besides bank space. That's the only problem with this method) without backlash, protests, flame wars, and all things in between. If it was OPTIONAL (and it actually is. You right click on the class to delete it), then maybe, but if it's brute-forced, then just NO.

    tl;dr: I regurgitated everything that was already said most likely, but with some flair. NO.

    I think server reset is worst thing to do, and countless hours that everyone puts into their classes would be lost FOREVER. Wynncraft wouldn't do this. if they did this, it would create huge backlash and many player will quit as result and even that goes for ol' veteran players. So NO for the server reset.

    Don't reset, just rebalance defense stat, and add more actual fun low lvl quests. Also make some items actually usable.

    Reset? No thanks.

    Not having resets is what keeps this server alive. Faction servers with resets don't have the time to balance things. This is a RPG.

    A reset is a bad idea unless over 50% of the community actively votes for it to happen. You can't think about "oh, I would be fine if this happened" you need to think about the people that would be ruined if it happened

    Instead of hard resetting how about a prestige system that lets people who don't want a reset, not have to reset, and those who do, can?
