World Ideas For More Atmosphere

So its like that thing where it feels like the world is open and real and environment and stuff? Interaction? Idk.

Anyways my ideas were:

1. You know that quest reclaiming the house? You need to cover yourself with mud to disguise yourself, and when you do, the orcs become peaceful. Cool, right? But then the orcs near the entrance of the cave still hate you. Why?

2. there should be like breakable walls with particles or something idk that you can break to reveal chests/discovery.

3. when stuff happens like the tower youre in gets destroyed and you fall off (reclaiming the house) or like you get spit out of a worm (rol p1 + journey further) and other stuff like that you should actually take damage (nonlethal of course)

4. birds and stuff flying through the air and animals walking around. Not only wybels in cities it would be cool.

5. spread out the passive mob citizens (not the npc ones) so then they aren’t ALWAYS having a town meeting.

6. Routine events. Like a city gets raided or something. If you are nearby or in the town a guard will shout for your help to fight the mobs (which drop lots of xp and unidentified items) they should only happen in areas under attack (like the house in reclaiming the house [wow ive mentioned that alot] and cities like Nemract and Gelibord.

And yeah thats it. If you have ideas add them.

On a side note, rework the harry potter quest (I forgot its name) becuz the quest rewards are based on random choices at the beginning of the quest and theres no hint as to what gives what reward. Also its kind of wierd to be ripping off hogwarts so blatantly. What if it was instead a regular old magic school? Like less shameless and more creative.

Oh, also if you go in the emerald ladybrinth under almuj for the quest and you want to leave theres no exit shortcut you have to either go all the way back out or /kill.

Oh and also the lazarus pit exists already in the DC comics so you should change its name or something.

 

Most of the things you suggested already exist and for the things like Hogwart or the Lazarus Pit its the point of being a reference and if it dosnt ruin your experience or has its own storyline idk why just a name should be a problem.

 

Perhaps more poll choices would be better

 

this exists doesn't it?

hard to make sure its nonlethal, since there may be other hostile mobs nearby and some ppl are glassier than others

yes.

this is just how they spawn, might be kinda hard to fix but idk

these are called swarms and they were removed because of lag

 

1. I'm assuming you mean the regular orcs that spawn around the area, not in the cave? If so, then I don't know if they could change the spawns without affecting the entire area

2. This exists, such as the Cryptic Keys in the SE and that one chest in the Dernal Jungle where you have to kill a sacrifice to open a small room with a chest

3. Sure, I guess. I mean, I wouldn't like taking random damage because I could be killed by mobs right after, but ok

4. Birds would be cool, however there are animals, like grooks and cows, and also monsters are kinda the animals of wynncraft (at least in some places).

5. ???

6. They used to have something like this I think, not sure why they removed it

The Order of the Grook probably does need to change imo

That's the point. It's a Labyrinth, it's supposed to be a maze. If there was another easier exit, why would the banker be so lonely?

Wait is that supposed to be a reference ive never heard of that before

 

Lag iirc

 

I did this quest a couple of days ago and the orcs at the entrance of the cave ignored me until I attacked them, so I'm pretty sure this exists

Already exist

Do you mean you have a hit effect but you don't lose any health? To be honest, I don't know how to feel with this one

There's already a popular thread about this in which a GM replies that they want to add this, so this could exist in later updates or 1.20 patches

I think they're already spread out enough, they might all just be having a chat after all

This used to be a thing, they were called ''Swarms''. To this day, you can see a list of ''Swarms completed'' on player profiles in the ''Stats'' section of the website. These were removed because they were too laggy, but they were a neat feature while they existed. Also people like to AFK in towns so random attacks on the city would just be annoying

Literally the entire point of the quest is to be a reference to Harry Potter. If it wasn't called ''Order of the Grook'' and ''Grookwarts'' then the reference wouldn't be very obvious. It's like the old quest Lord of the Clock being a reference to LOTR. If that quest didn't name its characters after J.R.R Tolkien characters then the reference would almost have been unnoticeable. As for the rewards, yeah they should depend on the lessons you take and not the wand and stuff

While I do think an exit shortcut would be good, the guard golems are a very minor obstacle so walking isn't a bad option either

It's, again, a reference. Just read the thing about Grookwarts and you'll understand why references have to be somewhat easy to figure out.

 

belive this was in old wynn but it caused strain on servers

 

Its like 20 mobs how bad can it be.

 

It was way more than 20 mobs, more like 100-150, and they had unique mechanics to prevent it from being an endgame-only experience involving percent-based health and hit counters, along with forcing guards to ignore mobs and this in addition to the normal town entities.

 

Oh. Then make it like 20-30 mobs that seems fine for a raid no wonder there were lag problems. Also wynncraft is faster now I think?
Too late now tho.

 

Mobs do contribute to lag less now, but 20-30 mobs isn't really enough for it to be an engaging event. That's more of a small annoyance, especially given how much easier mobs are to kill now. They'd still need a significant number to make it an event instead of just another reason cities aren't safe.

 

Ok

 

I think you should change the poll to allow people to select which numbers they agree with, so people don't have to take one stance or the other.

 

harry potter referenceless order of the grook would be better than LOTR referenceless lord of the clock because order of the grook actually has more going for it than a reference to another piece of media
