    So. As we all know there are four VIP/VIP+ classes that are aesthetic re-skins of the original four. Those four re-skins are the Hunter, Knight, Dark(Dank) Wizard, and the Ninja. When playing Wynncraft I noticed something. Some people may find some of the aesthetically changed spells of the classes not so pleasing. You may ask, why not just avoid using that class then? Why not? Because some of the spells look good, while others don't. So this is my suggestion:

    Perhaps there could be an implementation of a way to toggle these aesthetics for all classes as a VIP/VIP+. What I mean by this is having a method of turning these aesthetic spells on and off per class, per spell. An example of this would be the Shadow Clone for Ninja. Perhaps you don't fancy the Shadow Clone, but would like to keep the Blinding Cloud, Leopard Punches, and Whirlwind. In my opinion, the shadow clone doesn't really have much of an effect. It doesn't show the same armor skin as you wear, nor even show your hat. So this would not have any effect and is just showing people where you have been. Not quite good for a Ninja. Maybe it is the other way around. Maybe you want to have Shadow Clone as an Assassin, but do not want the other spell changes. Perhaps you even want to mix things up a bit and have Shadow Clone, Spin Attack, Blinding Cloud, and Multihit? With this suggestion being implemented, this would be possible.

    I'm going to lay out how it could possibly work exactly. I'm going to use the Assassin again for convenience. I would recreate this in-game, but I don't have the skills unfortunately. I will describe it the best that I can. In your /use menu as a VIP, there would be a new option. It would be labeled as Aesthetics, Spells, or Spell Toggle. Something of the sort. When clicking that, a new menu would appear. In that menu there would be an icon for all 8 classes. When clicking on an icon, for example the Assassin, it would go to the final menu. The final menu would have a layout of the four spells that you have. Four pieces of colored wool would appear in said menu. Each one would be labeled with a spell name. For the Assassin, they would all be red. Red wool signals that there is no spell aesthetic active, which means the default look of the spell would be used. For the Ninja, they would all be green by default. Here is an example of what it would look like for the Assassin (Keep in mind that I could not recreate this in-game):

    Spin Attack | Vanish | Multihit | Smoke Bomb

    Here is what it would look like for the Ninja by default:

    Whirlwind | Shadow Clone | Leopard Punches | Blinding Cloud

    Now let's mix it up a bit. This is what it would look like if I chose to have the spell setup of Spin Attack, Vanish, Leopard Punches, and Smoke Bomb:

    Spin Attack | Vanish | Leopard Punches | Smoke Bomb

    So perhaps you don't have Smoke Bomb or Blinding Cloud Unlocked just yet. It would be grayed out, meaning that you cannot change it. This is what it would look like if you did not have them unlocked:

    Spin Attack | Vanish | Leopard Punches | Smoke Bomb

    Simple enough, yes? Now to crack down on the actual significance of this suggestion. I will now lay out the pros and cons.

    Pros:
    - Can change spells that aren't appealing to you.
    - Less reason to scrap entire classes if spells don't appeal.
    - More spell variety.
    - More reason to buy VIP/VIP+.
    - No need to waste hours just to level and see what the spells look like and then become displeased.
    (If there are more let me know.)

    Cons:
    - VIP classes become more redundant, and because of this people will use them for extra storage.. Wait, they already do. Right...
    (If there are more let me know.)

    Now that I've briefly summed up all of the pros and cons that I can think of at the moment, you can decide if you want this implemented or not. I think this would make a great addition seeing as the ranks don't have much to provide. We don't even get the lobby rocket+slap or reserved VIP slots as advertised in the shop. The armor colors also seem a bit worthless. They haven't been put to use in forever, and I don't see a good purpose for them. So in short this could partially make up for the fact that we don't get everything we actually pay for in this case. Sorry, excuse that. All ranting aside, I believe this would provide a nice little bonus to buying VIP/VIP+. It would give the user more choice in what their class looks like. People would be able to personalize it to their liking. People would feel more freedom in classes. With the fact that Grian stated in an interview that more classes/class are planned to be released after Gavel is, this would be perfect. He also said that he might want to go for a new rank, this could be a perk for said rank. I will provide a link of the Youtube interview if you don't believe me. Just ask.

    Anyways, that was it. Feel free to leave your thoughts below. If you disagree, please be descriptive about it. Don't just say you hate it because you do or whatever. Hey! You! Yes you. I see you typing exactly that to mess with me. Stop. Try to provide some knowledge and insight to help me better understand why exactly you disagree.

    Thanks for reading. Excuse the wall of text. Bye now.

    So it's essentially a spell animation toggle for VIPs? It seems pretty nice, but it kind of defeats the purpose of having two classes if you can use all the animations on a single class.

    That's really the only Con here. Most people I've talked to prior to making this suggestion stated that they only use the classes for storage and extra items, such as corrupted treasure. Additionally, if the VIP classes were ever removed, this could replace it. They already violate the EULA by giving donators more storage space and extra corrupted treasure which can be sold for quite the sum of LE. So this could be a logical replacement in the future. I doubt they will be removed however.

    The corrupted treasure I think will be a thing of the past once they add a class reset option. Get to level 75, claim corrupted treasure, sell it/bank it and then reset your class. The extra storage though is still EULA breach.

    Imagine doing that and forgetting to put the le in your bank when you reset the class...

    This is a good reason to remove the extra classes. Perhaps when Gavel is released they could give VIPs a few days or a week notice to remove anything they want from the classes, and give the VIPs who bought it when the classes were available some Gold Coins in exchange after removing them. Then this idea would work perfectly and the EULA breach class-wise would be resolved.

    I dont even want to think about that. All the le.... I guess that is why the ticket that the king of Troms gives you after Wynn Ex D is untradable because the corrupted treasure trades were crazy.
