Elemental Revamp Update + 1.19 Teaser

It's true you can spam Heal, but the point is, it's not a massive benefit over melee mage because of the pulsing - you're generally getting, say, 60% net base Heal per cycle versus about 30% for melee mage, even though you've cast three times as many Heals.

 

Really I am kind of glad they are closer to the CMs. Also the removal of that voting system is interesting. I still can’t believe that small group of players, who were so excited to have a meeting with the owner of wynncraft to talk about balancing some items. Managed to grow and evolve into all of what it has become today. It really was a fun and crazy ride. It nice to see it is still growing. Thanks to all the IM’s and CT for putting in all the time and thought to make this game better. @Pretzule & @Selvut283 especially, for being the force that lead to the founding of the IM's.

 

I don't think anyone believed for a split second that you were actually going to fully let go of the Elemental Revamp, it's such a paradigm-shifting vision. A vision, in which your entire team was so confident that they released what was originally intended as a hype post for it and didn't even consider any possible community backlash until it happened.
...Hey, I got a question for you. Why don't you just release the Endgame Overhaul right now? I would think, as you are the owner of a successful online service, one of the first things you'd know is that you will never please everyone. You will not find a way to ease us all into this paradigm shift, and you definitely will not please me when you ultimately phase my favorite playstyle out of your game. I think I've already made it clear what that is, and even though it was just barely viable with the beta changelog, I know it will eventually be destroyed entirely.
You know what, I'm being rude. You're trying to be honest here. Maybe I should open up too. Since I bore witness to the beta changelog of the Endgame Overhaul, I've felt like your Administration doesn't have my best interests at heart.
Actually, now that I think about it, I feel like the Endgame Overhaul is the least of my problems. In this past year, your game has always had at least one serious problem that stays a problem for months at a time. The quest-breaking unoptimization of the 1.18 Economy Update. The shutdown of the Trade Market, and the subsequent failure of Guild wars. The player API's inability to recognize players who changed their username. The constant server ping spikes and increased Guild war invalidation rates that happened back in August.
The one good thing I've taken from all these problems is that your team has been making an effort to fix them. Do you really want to please everyone? Because I lied, there actually is a way. It just doesn't have anything to do with the Elemental Revamp. Take a smarter approach to fixing the problems with your game. Not this imagined flaw with how people make endgame builds, but the actual malfunctions of your game. I'm not going to tell you how to achieve this because I'm not qualified to do so, but I would bet real money that there are people in this community with some good ideas regarding how you can not release Wynncraft 1.19 with a thousand endgame-breaking bugs.

Like I said earlier, the Endgame Overhaul has shown me that I won't agree with the ultimate direction of your game. But I'd still like to see you make a good game for the people who will still support you.

 

Wasn’t the goal to increase build diversity outside of “melee tank spell spam single elemental rainbow elemental” or whatnot?
the major IDs appear to do that pretty well.

 

Major IDs tend to be fairly exclusive and locking certain playstyles to only items with those Major IDs isn't a very practical way to go about it. They're effective for those that have it but it won't singlehandedly hold things up.

 

Seems pretty epic to me Mr Salted sir

 

WAIT WHAT
I thought this was a little item tweaking, and didn't read it, now I see I have been deeply mistaken

Also for magnet shouldn't it be pull all items, or pull every item, not pull every items?

 

???

 

Some of the changes, like the addition of more master hive and some others, will still be coming. The massive overhaul is being replaced by major IDs, which is also a massive overhaul itself.

 

There is probably a revamp coming in a future update, with significant changes. The Master Hive armors are plenty of proof of that.

 

Yeah, I did see that and major IDs seem like a pretty cool idea, I'm hoping every mythic gets one

@Major_Lue thanks, I didn't see that

 

Omg :O cant wait

 

Is there going to be an ETA for 1.19?

 

We don't get ETA's any more for a variety of reasons

 

We know it's not this month, and we know it isn't soon.

 

absolutely insane. This giant RAT in the trailer looks amazing :D
