My Wynncraft Experience/toughts/rant

I think you can manually change it to display the blocks as vanilla.

I understand, I also lost a lot but I also understand that they can't refund us.

Using fences or slabs would create holes you can fall into and can't get out so you had to /kill

The community (some of us at least) like to go around handing stuff out.

 

Before everyone used 1 set of asrmour it was a blue mask adamantite crystal stalagmites now theres plenty of build types eg
High melee dmg builds with slow attack speed
Low melee dmg high attack speed
Spell dmg builds
Low health high dmg builds
Speed builds
xp builds
loot bonus builds
and all of these can come in all sorts of elemental combinations please put some evidence of diffrent types of build from before gavel to prive me wrong

 

What... are you talking about?
Pre gavel had one endgame build, and ya you could diversify... but it was pointless, that was pretty much the best set in the game.
This offers a much more diverse market for specific builds, what you get is what you put together.
The skill points are there as a limitation, without them, people would be making ultimate rainbow tank dps builds with 15/20 mr and tons of health.
There are tons of items that allow you to diversify into any kind of build, use wynnapps or the item guide to put something together.

 

what the fuck

Dude, it doesn't take away mana anymore, unless you're an idiot an keep sprinting after the bar is fully depleted

 

Since people have already stated their points, I won't ramble for too long, I'll finally get to use this thing, it's been sitting in my info tab for like a year, a few things may be outdated.

To add to this, the game actually has fucking variance and replayability now, something pre-Gavel Wynn lacked big time, want some endgame armor? Sorry, only 1 set is actually viable.
Trying to compare pre-Gavel Wynn to current Wynn is pretty laughable and the only thing that pre-Gavel Wynn has is nostalgia, and even that doesn't work as a great argument, which it seems this thread is trying to rely on, could be wrong.
Pre-Gavel Wynn was very boring and was awful as an MMORPG, and was even more boring to try and keep playing after reaching the level cap.

I love the texture pack, I really do, despite me being here since July 9th of 2013, and thus, has experienced pre-Gavel Wynn longer than current Wynn, it's surprisingly difficult to imagine Wynn without the pack.

Sprinting bar made it awful to run around the map? What the fuck? Are you kidding me? Do you sprint the second you log in? Because when you log in, the bar always starts at the bottom, meaning until you object, I'm going to assume that your bar stays in the yellow and red zones all the time and never goes to the green with how much you may sprint.

 

Can we wrap up this salty pointless post? All your arguments are not valid.

 

now now, they are just opinions. to each their own

 

I mean now the other posts on this thread are just bashing what this person is saying. Youre right though sorry

 

"Vertify?"
Don't think that's a word.
I don't really understand what you mean by verify them. If you mean identify, sure.. but you had to do that before.
Hving a level req is a good thing. You wouldn't want a lvl 10 running around with soul signal as their chestplate, now would you?
Ok, so if this didn't happen, we would have ridiculously overpowered builds that had no equal. I mean, we already have builds that can solo Qira in 15 seconds, and if there was no skill req we might have builds that could insta-kill Qira. The whole balancing thing.

How'd you get to the top of a 100 block high tower? And I've never seen benches in Wynncraft.
While yes - many barrier blocks are more of an annoyance, some are there to keep you from camping up on a place and killing a boss that way. The easy way. Obviously, there are barrier blocks that annoy me to no end, but I honestly don't care about them. That much. I mean.. it's just an opinion thing. And since your original post was an opinion post...

I think that the time you have to sprint (off of the sprint bar) is the exact same as the time you had when you were using your mana bar. It just conserves mana. Also, you don't have to stop. Just walk. As soon as you can, get a horse. It's not that hard.

Ok, so.. if this is you're opinion, you're saying:
"Ok yeah, I respect your opinion that the texture pack is cool.. but fuck your opinion, the texture pack sucks."
You said that you didn't like the new block textures. That's your issue. 97% of players actually like the texture pack (ok, fine, I made that statistic up, but most Wynncraft players do like the texture pack.) Like, it's cool and all to go back, but the texture pack right now represents Wynncraft as it is now. With a lot more work and care put into it.

There's no way to know if the person is 1) lying about the item that they had in the first place and 2) we don't know if the person just sold the stuff (yes I know you said "since tons of people could be lying about it")
I believe only admins can get items. There are only 3 admins that actually come online, and one of them just afk's in the lobby. The admins have a lot of work and don't have the time to give every single person back the items hat they lost.
And pre-Gavel endgame gear sucks now.
Unless you have a really good Blue Mask.

Look, I've experienced it.
And it's a bad idea.
Like, it sucks that you lose your items. It really does.
But if a lvl 75 (from before Gavel) jumps into post-Gameplay Update Wynncraft, they will have no idea what is going on.
And they'll just start another class from scratch (it's the best idea). And by the time they get to that level, they will have way better gear.

Seriously, what is vertify??

You can though...
Well, you have a finite number of skill points.
But (I think you're talking about skill reqs on armor, weapons, etc.) skill reqs are a good thing. They're so people aren't ridiculously overpowered.

Ok, yes, the sprint bar drains too quickly.
But remove it?
The sprint bar was one of the big features of the Gameplay Update.
Nah, it's not going to be removed.

Agreed. Although I haven't yet encountered a table that I can't jump on.

Seriously. A lot of players like the texture pack. The CT would be doing something for the minority of players - not a good thing for the "well-being" of Wynncraft (support, the money donated, etc.).
Armor skins got removed because of EULA, I believe. If you don't like EULA, go rant at Mojang.
Also, there have been multipe suggestions to remove the spammy message that happens when you turn off the texture pack.

Most likely.
Ok.
So, I have played since 2014 - before the Mob Update.
I have played for more than 100 hours.
So I go to a moderator and say "Hey, I'm a very experienced Wynncraft player, and I just lost my Cata. Can I get one back? Thanks!"
But I've never had a Cata. I've never even owned a mythic. Yet I believe I fit your parameter of "their playtime.. how experienced they are."
So would I get a Cata I never had?
With your system, yes.
This would break the economy even more. And allow a lot of exploits.
So, no.
Bad idea.

Look, I understand that the Gavel + Gameplay Update might not be your cup of tea.
But you'll just have to deal with it.

 

I was obviously expecting criticism, and I simply haven't enough experience with the update as a whole. This was just stating my experience and toughts of the Gavel changes. Still, I wasn't aware of the different armor sets, and think they are really cool. I tought there was 1 endgame armor (as before) only with skill restrictions, but I see that there is more to it than that. I will make sure to level up to level 100 before I write my next review on the update, since I'm probably more known with the subject I'm talking about. I've changed parts of my opinion, but some will remain the same. I just have to get used to the change.

 

Also something that people might not have said is that some pieces of armour have skill points restrictions if they're really powerful to prevent overpowered builds, take gravity for an example

 

1. I was not aware that Mojang was the reason armor skins was removed, so I'm sorry to hear that. I was basically just hearing rumors about it beeing incomplete, so they tok it away to work on them.
OK

2. I'm aware of barrier on the mountains so you can't abuse that, but that wasn't what I was refering to. I was talking about how they put barriers on top of bookshelf in quite a few houses, barries over 2x2 windows without glass so you can't jump out from them and such. They force you to just walk on the floor instead of beeing on top of certain buildings or interior.
Most of the time this is for a quest build or something similar; to prevent you from entering or exiting; skipping parts.

Yes, I know I didn't have a viable solution to that problem, but still its really damaging for the players who has experienced it, and therefore I decided that it was important to take it into consideration. I'm really hoping for a future solution to this, since its basically depressing playing the server knowing about all that you've lost from it.

Won't go trough them all, but if your Bob's Mythic isn't indentified, you're unable to reidentify it.


Sure, its okay that there isn't an option that completely destroys everyone else in every aspect, but please. PLEASE don't let it go out over skill combinations. Thats the players spesific abillities. Not the armors. You can rather add weaknesess to the armor itself.



Takes some time to reach that level, and when I do, I won't have any satisfaction with it, knowing that I lost a 4x better one.


I've never said that. In fact, I think they are quite nice. Its the change of blocks that is annoying me.


I completely understand that, but imagine the feeling many of us have to go trough because of this. Thats a problem, and problems should be fixed, however you do it.



Sorry, but I can't really remember that. I have jumped on quite a lot of tables trough my time here.


Gah, I didn't mean it like that. I was talking about the armor skins, sorry if you misunderstood.


I'm aware of that, but its hard finding a solution to this. It really, really sucks. Still its a problem that really got to be fixed.

________________________________

1. It is. I stated that this was basically my own opinions, so it shouldn't be that much of a problem.
2. I'm not really used to the english grammar method, and when I have such a large text like this to work with, I don't really bother checking it all for mistakes. It would just have taken too long. Aslong as it is understandable, it is good.
3. Their own builds? Thats exactly how it was before the restriction. Now people have to use the same build as everyone else, and does no longer have the freedom to create their own. A better way of doing this would be to add tons of armors with one spesific purpose, instead of forcing people to follow a spesific build they don't want.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
PRE-GAVEL:
BLUE MASK ADAMANTITE CRYSTAL STALAGMITES BOBS/CHAMPION
POST-GAVEL: HUNDREDS OF BUILDS
This statement is incredibly wrong
Just look at the class builds section
No ones forcing you to do anything

 

Still, pre gavel it was about skill not money and gear
