New Item Tier! (145+ Supporters & 35+ Likes)

So the other day I was talking with my friend about a new concept to fill a much-needed gap.

(KEEP IN MIND IM SUGGESTING THE TIER NOT THE ITEM ABOVE, THAT'S JUST FOR VISUAL APPEAL)
So when I'm grinding at the ice heights I tend to get about a legendary every 2-3 minutes and have gotten about 100 legendaries in the last month, meanwhile, I have never gotten a mythic.

I don't know the official chance of a legendary but I would guess 1 in 500. While I know Mythic's are 1 in ~150k.
I know mythics are supposed to be extremely rare and all that stuff but at this point I would like to suggest a tier between Legendaries and mythic's at a 1 in 5-30k to make a very rare item that is not "Impossible" to get.

Legendary (Estimate)- 1/500
New Tier(Range)- 1/5,000-30,000
Mythic(About)- 1/150,000


Im not the best at writing but I think you guys get the idea, Thanks!

ALSO: I have some examples of the name of this new tier:
Fabled
Epic (@The Superior One)
Sacred (@Locky)
Special (@NoobDoesMC)
Enchanted (@NoobDoesMC)
Heroic
Forgotten
Extraordinary
Inconceivable
Fine
Elegant
Extreme
Super
Insane
Delicate

ALSO: I thought of some colors that would go nicely:
Light Red

Spoiler: Light red Example

Dark Red

Gold/Orange


Thank you so much!
Nesaak :b​

 

The only way to get Mythics is basically by trading
I like that.
They're too desirable.... legendaries suffice.

A new tier between Legendary and Mythic would be nice

 

I see where your coming from, mythics are basically just used as currency nowadays, no one wants legendaries (Besides good ones), I feel like there a gap that needs to be filled.

 

white color is already used on normal items

 

Oh omg, Completly forgot, ill change that rn!

 

How about you create a sample item? I want to see how good this weapon is before voting

 

I think that this would fit well. I'd suggest that the drop rate be 1/10,000. Suggestions are never added though, sadly.

EDIT: Just read SaltyPhox's post, and I agree with him.

 

New tiers between Legendaries and Mythics have been suggested many times, but what too many people don't consider is just how much balancing is required for a tier like this.

For example, if you're not careful with the item drop chances, the tier will either end up in rich hands only, or will flood the market.

Another thing to consider is that Legendary items have already been sort of set in place as the "2nd best" type of item, if you're going to add a new tier stronger than Legendary, you'll need to balance both Legendaries and Mythics.

-Some Legendary items should be converted into the Fabled tier, as some Legendaries, especially like half of the items from the high-leveled dungeons, are considerably more powerful than your average Legendary.
Hive items and Orange Wybel items should also be converted to Fabled tier as well, maybe Legendary Island, but that would fuck up the name....
Could anyone here assist me by suggesting other items that should converted to Fabled tier...

-Even Mythics, they are the strongest item after all, and while some of them are certainly proof of this, as shown here, there are already some Mythics that are just a tiny bit better than Legendaries of a similar playstyle or just trash in general, and adding another tier won't help this.

Basically, if a tier between Legendaries and Mythics is considered, a huge amount of balancing is required.

Though I will say this, this is probably one of the better suggestions I've seen for a new tier, and that's mainly because of the color choice of Light Red, I think it fits better for Fabled than Red or Orange.

Speaking of "Fabled", I say you should stick with that name, the other examples don't really fit or make no sense at all. "Impossible"? "Imaginary"? "Extreme"? What?

 

This is why i suggested making legendaries harder to get or implementing some kind of rng upgrading system that can destroy the item. If there's no item sink, the economy can only get worse. So you need to update the game regularly otherwise we get what we have now.. "Legendary" items selling for an emerald block or two

I want there to be thrill of the hunt, when a legendary drops you should be amazingly happy and can't wait to see the rolls. Not thinking "eh this will probably be put in bank to sell next month for 5 eb

 

Hey thanks for the feedback, I get it would be a lot of work but in the end I think it would be super beneficial to the wynncraft economy! Oh and some of the suggestions for names I was just messing around with with random ideas that popped into my head :b!

________________________________

I totally ageee that the legendary drop chance should be increased, legendaries just don't give me a thrill anymore and mythical are just toooooo rare! That's where my solution of Fabled comes in. TBH now days so many items drop this could be fixed by just increasing all drop chances by 10 times (BESIDES MYTHICS), it would give you excitement when you got rare+!

 

Fabled and Mythic are basically the same thing
I like "Fine"
perhaps "Epic"?
^_^
probably a golden color

 

I like epic a lot!

 

I love the name of the tier, but id change the color to dark red

 

I have that as a option in the list :)

 

I kno it's just a test item, but that beats out every mythic in the game XD.

 

Cruuk gave some real good points, and I'd like to make a few more.

I don't think this is necessary, or a good idea. It's better to consider Unique, Rare, and Legendary as the three item tiers, and then Mythics are ultra-rare items like Grian's map or Salted's Poop.

A big issue, though, is part of what Cruuk mentioned. Balancing. Creating a new tier of really good items will only make the game easier, something we don't need. More items of a better tier than legendary will only make the already-easy trek that is Wynncraft even easier.

Lastly, if this happens, it will only start a cycle. People will keep wanting more and more tiers in between x and mythic until there's hardly a difference.

Really, the balance of need to downsides just isn't in favour of adding it.

 

I voted "yes, but change something" because I think this sugegstion is good, but it's missing something... That alright?

 

Trusty Items are worth far more than Mythics since they don't have a drop chance and can only be given to certain people who receive said item by scrambling to get it off the ground first.

 

Pure Should be it's own tier in between unique and rare.
