Evidence Of The Next Major Update...?

I doubt it's the next update, but you've found pretty conclusive evidence in favor of Fruma, nice find.avi

 

bruh ive been wanting fruma since gavel pls papa salted give it to me.

 

For anyone wondering, the source is from the stream recap, and here's the stream for anyone who wants to watch it (you'll be disappointed though because it's actually just footages and some clips with sounds).

 

Oh wow, I didn't even notice that. Nice catch, although the chances of Fruma being the next update are pretty slim, I do believe it will be the next large area added to the game.

 

I remember them saying that they always worked on the next update and the update after it at the same time (right now they’re probably working on 1.20 and 1.21). Fruma may be planned for 1.21 rather than the next update. That being said, we may start to see an outline of Fruma in the map in the coming updates like we could with the SE long before it was released

 

It might very likely be Fruma because AMBIVALENCE will come at the next map push

 

Pardon my lack of knowledge but dafuq is Ambivalence?

 

A necklace that will be available from EO at the next map push, you can already look at it on Wynndata https://wynndata.tk/s/ul1wfg

 

The reason why I think that those will be released soon is because we have been getting secret discoveries for one major region every update since 1.17 update and jungle is the last major region in Wynn Province with no discoveries.
Here's the list of updates that gave us disoveries:

1.17: Wynn plains
1.18: Desert
1.19: Nesaak

 

1.17 also gave Corkus and 1.19 gave SE

gavel discoveries 1.21 yee

 

1.19 also gave nesaak

it's also possible that they're going by levels in which case the llevigar plains will get discoveries next update
but who am I kidding llevigar plains has 0 lore

 

I think someone said that next update will fix some things players complained about, so Fruma will probably be in 1.21

 

They also said that the area they are working on will take a year before it is completed, so 1.20 will most likely be a smaller update like Dungeons & Discoveries.

 

Hey why aren't they showing this stuff to smaller Wynncraft YTs

 

What is so wrong with gavel that demands a revamp?

 

I know, but I was talking only about Wynn Province.

 

Everything. Lore is messed up. Most Quests are boring. Areas aren't nearly as interesting. However I doubt there will be a whole update revamping Gavel. What they will more likely do is every update revamp 1-2 areas of Gavel along with the other changes

 

What the fuck is this CIA investigation bullshit
This is fuckin great

 

Yes. Corkus has so much wasted potential!

 

Do you guys ever wonder how large Fruma will be? When I first heard about it a few years back I expected it to be the size of Gavel, maybe even bigger, but now my estimate is getting more and more conservative.

Will it be something like this?
+ Rectangle map dream
+ Less space means more time for other things e.g. higher quality builds, quests, revamps of other areas etc.
+ Likely a higher content density as well
- Size of Wynn plains
- Since Fruman guards at the gate are level 60, this version of Fruma would likely be lvl 60-70 or 60-80. I'd be a bit sad since we have a lot of content for those levels already (Dernel, Troms, Ocean, Kander, Dark forest, Light forest, Cinfras)
- Small area means less possibility to play around with lore
- Fruma would feel very small (cause it is)


Or something like this? Left part is Fruma, and that bottom right part is Dern.
+ Still that rectangle map dream
+ Way more freedom for level ranges. Personally hope Fruma to have a lot of level 90-100 content since I dont know what other areas could give use that level range (we only got molten heights and sky islands so far)
+ Large map, about the size of 2/3 of Gavel

- A bit thin
- Requires Dern to look nice on the map, otherwise we have a little square poking out of the otherwise perfect rectangle map and we cant have that
- Barely any coastline
- Will take more time to make than option 1


This is how I initially anticipated Fruma's size to be. You'd enter into large open plains with the Royal City to the north west, surrounded on most sides by coastal mountains but also mines and infrastructure needed to support the elite capital. The centre would be a large desert beyond which lie devastated toxic lands, regions that were once sprawling rainforests now polluted by Fruma's waste. The southeast corner of Fruma still has one of these forests in tact, showing the megafaunal creatures that once resided in most of southern Fruma. Anyway,

+ Thicc map
+ Chonky map
+ Really big map that could support raising the level cap
+ Potential for more northern coast and an ocean expansion

- Would take 23 years to make
- no more rectangle dream (its over)

so ye which?? I personally hope either option 2 or 3, but option 1 is most likely. It really depends on how instrumental Fruma will be in the main storyline.
