boy oh boy was that a trip down memory lane

 

let's see
mages spat fireballs, could create an ice ring that basically stopped anything, even horses. heal set up a ring of healing and would often heal a duel partner, and teleport allowed you to climb up and up until you get kicked for flying
archers had a stone shield that could be stacked and stacked and often one shot people

 

Corrupter dealt 1000-2350 damage+40 seconds of fire per hit and hit/moved even faster than he does now in a smaller arena that you had to die to escape from.

Bet you don't think he needs a nerf now, do ya.

 

I remember when you needed a party to kill him and it was considered a feat to solo him.

 

/kill did not deal enough damage to kill the player

level 70 enemy sheep in Animal dungeon

old maple spear, windforce, the elder wand, tactical kukri

only 10-20 people online daily on the forums

escape lobby

+1% defense / level

slashing anything with a dagger regenerated mana quicker

rotten zombies in Almuj cave located under bridge

the two silverfish pits (one an actual pit out in the open, one under a little pyramid roof top)

no horses

no quests

able to place blocks on the ground for a brief moment enough to give you an ability to climb

skeletons with swords that had 0.1s hits

old old nether where there was this one guy who recorded himself killing others while being accused of hacks

Bob the Zombie actually had to come up to you to hit you

random holes that ranged in size appearing around the map for some reason

 

I have this screenshot and I have no idea what was going on when I took it.

Spoiler

 

That... thats just beautiful

 

Almuj and nessak being VIP towns (not sure tho)

That empty castle in the middle of the ocean

Old, bigger desert

Magma cubes spawning at the end portal cave near the abandoned mines (sometimes they would spawn above the cave and 1-hit any low lvl that came close)

Old nether

Old gavel gate


@fibunny (not before mob update but still)

The Bob tomb door was made out of snow so warrior could use his shovel(spear) to dig though it and enter it solo

 

I only joined in late 2014 ;-;

 

I remember CoW being like 10x harder than Bob because there was a glitch where all Skeleton mobs could hit every tick, even low-leveled Skeleton mobs were considered dangerous to high-leveled players.

I do not miss old Wynn

 

Interesting point, your thread just needs some more.... AESTHETIC
I don't have much of an opinion TBH

 

I don't prefer the old days over the new days, so I'm just gonna post this image:
- Old Deltas, no fancy new builds (Deltas was ugly before 1.12)
- SWARMS
- Fire Aspect Powders
- No texture pack
- Quest Books and Character Info weren't a thing
- Shops were useless
- People actually lost soul points
- Being a level 34 meant that you could access 85% of the games content with relative ease.
- Crappy-looking spells

 

before wynncraft's dungeons were shit? ;o

________________________________

oh shit i remember that place
i once dreamt that i fought a kinda bob's reincarnation as ash-greninja
in that place, but this time made of wood
i wish i could dream that again...

why am i telling my life btw?

________________________________

this is one of the reasons of why i like better old wynn

 

Back in '14 you'd spawn in the old tutorial area, filled with lava streams during a certain time if I can remember correctly..

________________________________

You also had to draw the arrows with a bow

 

You all forgot the time that manasteal w/ arrow storm or multihit meant infinite damage.

________________________________

your archer statement reminded me of that
