    Greetings, fellow Wynncraftians!
    It’s that time again, y’all. Wynncon — the biggest fan-made event in the history of Wynncraft — has finally arrived. From January 31st to February 2nd, the server will be open to any and all who wish to join, whether they be from EU, NA, or beyond.

    Wynncon is a fan-made event meant to celebrate the game we all love and play: Wynncraft! It will be hosted on a large server and will feature tons of minigames, custom PvP/PvE encounters, and giveaways. To catch up on the details, make sure to check out our Discord (linked below), where all your questions will be answered.

    This past year has been a year of change for Wynncon, and as such we have a whole new list of kick-ass events for your consumption. Listing all of them would probably break this thread, but here’s a few of them just to give you a taste of the fun that’s planned. Let’s get started!

    Wynncon Discord: https://discord.gg/qCDZkxZ




    THE MAP
    [​IMG]

    Well, we had to start somewhere, didn’t we? The world that Wynncon is hosted on is absolutely astounding, built and shaped by our own dedicated team of builders and CMD artists. This year’s map theme is Sky Islands, so it only makes sense that during the event you can:​
    • Travel around the islands with your rocket-powered Elytra and see all of the cool structures and areas that have been built.​
    • Interact with various NPCs and complete mini-quests set around the Islands.​
    • Browse the various guild tents set up around the place. If you’re looking for a guild, this is the perfect opportunity to get acquainted with some of the best around!​


    MINIGAMES
    [​IMG]

    Now, we won’t be having events happening every second, so while you’re waiting around for the next giveaway to happen, you can entertain yourself with various activities. There are a lot of minigames this year, starting with the most simple (yet the most classic): Parkour! There are 3 difficulties of parkour, each more challenging than the last. Complete each course in the fastest time and boast to your friends with our custom leaderboard (seen above)!

    Now for the more interesting games. Here’s a new one: Escape Room! Enter this minigame and try to solve various puzzles and parkour courses in an attempt to, well, escape the room!

    WYNNCRAFT SYSTEMATIC RECREATION
    That’s not all, though. This year, we were lucky to have @Novalescent drop by and slap us with his Wynncraft Systematic Recreation, a meticulously accurate recreation of Wynncraft’s various systems such as combat and items! Because of this, Wynndata has come to life! Equip yourself with Wynncraft gear and spells, all with perfect stats and 1.19 mechanics! It's the perfect place to test out your crazy build ideas absolutely free!

    Now, once you’ve gotten yourself prepared, it’s time to put your build to use. Fight other players in a large Free-For-All arena, go head-to-head in 1v1s, or relax a little and test your build with our Trainer arenas.
    Regarding PvP:
    We've listened to those of you who have some gripes about the current state of Hunted Mode PvP, so we've made our own changes to make it much more enjoyable. You can find the changelog here at this link: https://forums.wynncraft.com/thread...balancing-updated-as-of-jan-16th-2020.261446/

    FREE-FOR-ALL ARENA


    REVAMPED BOSSES
    @Novalescent also decided to take a page out of Igbar’s book this year and completely revamp 2 popular Wynncraft bosses. If you’re someone who likes PvE content, then get ready for his reimagining of the Corrupter of Worlds and Bob’s Reincarnation! These bosses have been remastered as level 100+ boss fights, sporting completely new and unique abilities and mechanics. They are not for the faint of heart and it is advised to do them with a group, however, we know some players are daring enough to try to do it alone, so we also made 3 solo arenas for each boss. Good luck!

    GIVEAWAYS
    [​IMG]

    Ah yes, the section you've all been waiting for: The Giveaways! Over the course of the 3-day event, there will be several different giveaways that will happen. We’ve amassed over 20 stacks of LE and 2 Mythics, totaling to around 35 stacks worth of LE, all of which will be given away during the event. The best part is this: All you have to do to be eligible to win a giveaway is simply be online our server in the giveaway room.

    In previous years we've hosted giveaways where we simply threw slips of paper into a crowd of people and whoever picked it up was the winner, however, this year we're taking a more sophisticated approach to selecting winners. Thanks to @Darkdragon902, We have a unique CMD system which randomly selects a winner from the group of players within a certain radius. This way, the giveaways will not only be more fair, but also more stylish too, which is what we're all about at Wynncon.

    OTHER MINOR FEATURES
    • Ranks and Guilds have been synchronized into chat, so it appears as it normally would in Wynncraft.​
    • Added various vendors around the map that will sell you some wonky potions to spice up your travels.​
    • Added in NPCs with interesting dialogue to read, and there are even a few easter eggs across the map
      (and when we say secrets, we mean big, bad, secrets hidden all across the map. Happy hunting)!​
    • Custom reskinned classes are available, and you don't have to be VIP to use them, because we're nice like that.​
    • Sprint bar removed. You're welcome​

    Is it too late to donate? I'd offer my Aftershock to give away if it isn't! (I would have given it earlier but I got it last week)
