My Experience In The Wynn Community 2: Electric Boogaloo

Just hit 1k posts (now I’m a little past that, but this is my 1k posts special), so I guess it’s around that time for another one of these.

This thread is kind of the spiritual successor to this one:

So, a lot’s happened since my last post. For one I actually got to endgame on both a mage and my warrior (and now am leveling the other 3 classes). And I joined Kingdom of Foxes for a little bit. I was exceedingly awkward, and had no idea how discord worked. But, joining that guild helped with those two things, and they were really cool.
During this time I became exceedingly interested in class builds. I can’t say I made great builds, but I started learning. It was mostly WFA warrior builds. Anyways, somewhere in there I got scouted by Atlas Inc. and joined their guild.

Atlas Inc. was the first guild-like thing I’ve ever joined that I’ve really dove into. I’m not one for online communities, but this one I really felt like I fit into. They helped me learn class building, and I was connected with a lot of cool people that I have come to respect. It's honestly changed my perspective of guilds. I like the community center they give you access to, and the connections you can form, especially in this time of social distancing.

Joining a guild also helped me get past some of the awkwardness and social anxiety I had experienced on the forums, and honestly kind of in general. Wynn has been really nice in allowing me to become comfortable online and not be so awkward. I realized that I shouldn’t let other people get on my nerves, but that I also shouldn’t make posts before I know what the heck I am talking about. But, mistakes are inevitable, and being chastised for them is nothing to be ashamed of. Growth often comes with pain.

Joining Atlas was the catalyst that propelled my increased involvement with the wynn community. And in all, the community is pretty sweet. I started recognizing a few names, and I was even recognized sometimes, which was really nice. It has been really really cool meeting people in discord and on the forums, and seeing their personality. One particular highlight is the welcome committee in Llevigar Docks, I love the time and effort they take to welcome newbies to the forums, and I support stuff like that. But there's also so many unique individuals I can't list them all here that are just really cool to encounter sometimes and have fun with. Some people even have their own gimmicks, like @starx280 liking lunar spine.

I have come to enjoy helping people in #class_builds on discord, and have become very active on Atlas Inc build aid. I know I kinda said this in my last reflection, but helping people in this game is very satisfying to me, and reinforces my desire to go into a career where I can help people on a daily basis.

I’ve also started making youtube videos (Shameless Plug) which was kinda out of my comfort zone, but it has been fun, and the videos have been received well, I think. It’s been fun. (I also made my favorite build in wynn)

Anyways, I guess I’ll end by saying this has been a wonderful and fun community to be a part of and I am excited to see how much more I’ll grow in it. I think my favorite experience so far has been helping people and making guides. Guides are just so satisfying to make, cuz 1: you're helping people, and 2: you get the satisfaction of creating something of quality. Anyways, have a good one y'all, thanks for reading.

My guides:
How to upload images onto the forums
EHP Calculator
Class building guides megathread
How elemental defenses work
Powder specials are additive
Braker is a good spell spear
How to uppercancel

And yes, @Qzphs, this is a nice profile post

 

yooooooo pogger is that THE renzenthio?!

 

I swear to god...

 

yooooooo poggers that is THE renzenthio!!!!

Ok but seriously, really nice post. Glad you touched on the aspects of wynn's community we usually take for granted.

 

Pogging in the 90s rn

 

Yo, is this the RENZENTHIO, warrior builder, disasspointer on sustainless builds, hero user and class builder

 

Ren zenthio? Never heard of them or their valid obsession with hero.

 

So basically Atlas Inc. and Warrior are cool.
Very insightful thread.

 

That's really sweet Ren, we're all also glad to have you around, and the class builds & questions section couldn't do without you. <3

 

It’s amazing something like atlas inc can help someone out so much
And you all know exactly what I mean when I say something like atlas inc
*lara r34* cough

 

Same applies for you too y’know.

The Wynncraft forums is so friendly, funny and so goddamn bright compared to the forums of other servers because you can really express yourself without much restriction.

Its honestly easier to talk to people here than at my school XD

It’s amazing how much unique individuals have gathered here. Everyone who created an account brings a personality that cannot be replicated, each of them shining brighter than stars in the sky.

That being said, I’m glad that you are part of this community. Your skill with warrior and consistency with your uppercanceling never ceases to amaze me! You’re ultra friendly too, humoring my dumb remarks even though you don’t have to :)

I’m sure everyone here is absolutely honored to have someone as special as you on our forums :D

 

Thanks for the responses everyone! Those are really sweet! Even the "is that THE RenZenthio!?" make me laugh, lol. I actually laugh every time I see those.

 

thank you THE renzenthio for appreciating "THE renzenthio" comments, they wouldn't have been possible without THE renzenthio

 

Really heartwarming post. The community is grateful for your presence <3

I couldn't agree more. It's so satisfying to help boost those who are still in their process of reaching the heights you yourself have already reached.

 

Renzen for FW when
