Bring Back The Quest Lord Of The Clock

This quest was so fun, I want new players to experience it too, please bring it back Wynncraft team!

 

1 word: yes

 

The quest was nothing more than a boring fetch quest; a walking simulator where all you do is travel 2000 meters. While the quest might've not been good, it still holds a special place in all of our hearts, which is why I support a revamped version of it that includes all of the original LOTR references.

 

It was my favorite quest!

 

Yes please now elrund and Legolus don’t make as much sense

 

NO NO NO NO NO
Walking to Bulbo's house near detlas, to the roots of corruption near elkurn, to mount wynn near maltic was a pain in the ass. Arachnid's Ascent, while not really a great quest, an entrance to Mount Wynn is right there, so it's much less fetchy, and it's a lot more creative than most fetch quests, with jump pads, falling spiders that burst into flames, and the sinking parkour. The only reason why lord of the clock was even memorable was that it was a lord of the rings parody, that doesnt mean the quest itself was good though

 

bring back the big rat
not as a fucking easter egg but as a QUEST
that quest was a piece of art
I could make an essay on it I suppose

 

The way how I interpreted this suggestion was bringing back the old Lord of the Clock quest(which is literally what the title says...) so it’s the OP’s fault if I misinterpreted it because they didn’t add enough detail.

I’m not against bringing a revamped Lord of the Clock into the game, but if it involves Mount Wynn again, how will it not interfere with Arachnid’s Ascent?

 

I just didn’t find anything about that quest entertaining. Besides gameplay wise, it’s really unoriginal and boring just to include a bunch of hamfisted LOTR references. If we were talking about parodies, that would be a whole different story. But this is Wynncraft. Plus the original LOTC was kinda conflicting with the lore, and made absolutely no impact on it. You might argue then that Corkus was bad, but Corkus was actually original and fun. I want Wynncraft’s quests and world to be explored and unique; not tacked-on pop culture references.

 

The main reason people like this quest is because of the refrences to Lord of the Rings.
Now imagine if all of the quest NPCs were all normal names (Like John, Lilac, and Boe), and the clock was a gem you had to throw in a heavily enchanted water pool.
It would basically be the same quest, but I imagine a lot less people would like it as it wouldn't have what people like about the quest.

I myself was glad to see it removed, as I hated the original quest (even when I love LotR) as just like Alphys, Aarontti, and Zed said, the quest is literally just a generic fetch quest where you take magical McGuffin #163 to a set location. It's just running, and nothing else.

Rating: F (30%)
PROS:
-Lord of the Rings stuff

CONS:
-Long Distance Travelling
-Generic Run Through Cave Section
-Fetch quest
-BORING

(Also, to people who say this quest is their favorite, there are quests that are objectively better than this one.)

 

Agreed, was not a fan of the quest as around this area I got bored of doing new classes because the quests were so bland. Not a LOTR fan either so the references didn't really do anything for me either.

 

I don’t think it is possible to bring it back
The quest, “Arachnid’s Assent” uses mount Wynn and so does Lord of the Clock

 

If they bring this quest back, they have to at least have a revamped version of it.

 

I don't see any reason to remove it, if you don't like it because it's a fetch quest, (which it is), then just don't do it.

 

That's not a valid argument. Saying that you don't have to do a quest if you don't like it, doesn't fix the fact that it's still a fetch quest.

 

I agree that it should be changed, because it was a very old quest and a bit outdated, but the idea was so good!

________________________________

Some people like fetch quests, just because you don't doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to do them. But I do understand what your'e saying, because I can see why you can think that fetch quests are boring.

 

It was removed because it conflicted with Arachnid’s Ascent, and Arachnid’s Ascent was simply a better quest, so it was removed entirely.

And also, you basically ignored @DaFamousRedPanda and me when I said that if it was brought back, it would conflict with Arachnid’s Ascent. Mount Doom is kinda an important part of LOTR, but mount Wynn is used for something else now. They could add another volcano, but two volcanoes for two different quests seem a bit redundant

 

They could bring it back... as long as they change the Mount Wynn part... maybe somewhere underground...

 

Oh, no no no. You misunderstood me. I don't mind fetch quests (if they're good), what I do mind however is that you can't use an argument "if you don't like it then just don't do it". This argument doesn't work becouse you can say that about just anything. I could say if you don't want to get bullied at school, just don't go to school, or if you don't want to fight a boss that is just unfair in the game you really like and want to complete it, then just don't bother and stop playing said game. I myself, as well as many other players would want to get 100% quest completionon on all classes, but in orther to do that we would have to do the same boring quest over and over again. This is why your argument that we should just not do a quest that we don't like is a bad argument, becouse some of us HAVE to complete that quest to achive a goal that we WANT to do. I think that instead of suggesting to not do a boring quest, said quest should be revamped.
