Add A Launch When You Jump Onto A Mob Similar To Smash Bros

I was playing WynnCraft this morning and was thinking, why don't they add some sort of double jump like Super Smash Bros has to slightly stun an opponent and give you a bigger jump. So I coded something relatively simple to demonstrate it, (You can find it on Spigot if you search "BouncyMobs") Let me know what you all think! Personally, I believe it would be a fun addition.

 

Problem with this, this would essentially take away the Archer's unique spell (Backflip) away, as well as making a ton of the parkour easy, and certain classes to just stun lock. It's just be straight up busted

 

EScAPe!!!11!1!1!1!11!1!1

 

It's just a useless, unnecessary addition in my opinion because the game is not based around SSB or even related to it. And like it was said above, it would take away the uniqueness of Escape, and make many parkour objectives easier.

I say no to this idea, it is just too unrelated and unnecessary to be a thing.

 

While I can see where everyone comes from on the Archer aspect, I don’t believe this would break parkour at all as to get a launch there has to be a mob’s head to jump on. I’m also too new to know what Escape is but i’m sure i’ll find out soon ;)

 

I now realize that my wording was wrong, you can only double jump on top of a mobs head, not any time you like. Essentially, when you land on the mob's head you are launched off of them stunning them for a moment.

 

If you're too new to know what escape is then why are you even making a suggestion?

 

I’m just suggesting something that I thought would be a fun part of the game.

 

Well if you don't fully understand how the game works how can you make good suggestions? What if something you're suggesting already was a part of the game?

 

This is still easily abused, considering the classes that don't have a stun, now suddenly have one, making them really busted. Especially Warrior.

 

This doesn't fit wynncraft in any way. Wynncraft is an RPG, jumping on enimies is a typical Jump and Run mechanic, it would make Wynncraft feel like a Mario game

 

What I am about to say shouldn't deter you from thinking of suggestions and posting them, but do keep in mind that (in general) you should have a pretty good understanding of the game and its mechanics before suggesting a mechanical change such as this. A simple QoL improvement for a specific class or ability sure, but remember that each class is balanced around each other (inb4 "balance omegalul") and adding a feature to one class or every class could throw this balance out of sync. Learning all these mechanics takes time and generally you should spend time learning these mechanics before suggesting something like this. In this case, Archer receives an indirect nerf since the power it has with Escape is mitigated by the ability of every other class to, in certain situations, do what Escape does.

Either way, for this suggestion, yes, it would be fun and hilarious, but I don't really see a soldier... bouncing on top of monster's heads. It just doesn't seem right. Yes, we do questionable things, but they're usually like, once awhile things or such. Plus, I can 3/4 classes being able to abuse this heavily.

Spoiler: Classes that can abuse this

Insert Archer
I can do that bounce on a head mechanic, shoot the enemy while looking straight down, and just kinda keep on doing that until they're dead. Cause you'll just be resetting the stun counter.

Insert Assassin
...Just... double jump on their head and spin attack... they can't do anything now.

Insert Mages
...Uh... meteor I guess? As you bounce on them?

Insert Warrior
Bash bash bash bash bash jump jump jump and bash some more!

Those scenarios could happen, and it's just downright... gross.

 

Ok, so revision due to criticism over the idea; only assassin gets to do this and it drains mana with every jump (i.e you can only do one or two before your mana is gone and it no longer works). It seems like an assassin thing to do tbh

 

This would require giving all of the other classes something. This would also need a mana chart as well with cd and such.

With this being for Assassin, I can soons essentially jump on a grea, be a melee build, and do great damage.

 

Double Jump: No
Landing on a Mob and then do damage?: yes, Funny Meme Builds would be Epic

 

didn't know skeletons were bouncy

 

I agree with everyone who said this wouldn't fit Wynncraft in general, but perhaps this could work for the "arcade"/puzzle type quests, for example,

Spoiler

like the part where you have to disable the 6 war machines in Dwarves and Doguns Part II

, or

Spoiler: Another one

the cannon part in Galleons Graveyard

, or

Spoiler: Not really a spoiler for level 5+

the part where one needs to run through the sewers (Sewers of Ragni) before the water hits

and we could implement it into a quest part where the player needs to run through obstacles and mobs...

 

Some parts in quests or cutscene it could be used but I think that the current state of quests/dungeons you suggested are fine, and I don't think devs should do coding for a small change that basically has the same function

 

adding something like this just because it seems cool is like saying "hey let's add fusing personas from persona to wynncraft because it seems cool." it's not something the game needs at all and it would just throw off the balance and be super out of place
