SPOILER Why Once a week?

annihilation, is a really difficult, but really fun boss to go against, don’t get me wrong I enjoy the boss, however why make the event once a week? I know right now it’s every 3-4 hours but eventually it will be once a week, so why?

 

To limit the amount of stuff that comes from the event going into circulation, to make it more special, to make it more of a server event than just a casual thing

 

Yeah i don‘t like that concept either, i will likely have to miss out on that type of content for the most part because i am neither willing nor able to structure my day around a random weekly event. Which is sad, because the boss looks really fun.

 

There should at least be a 24 hour countdown for it, if it is once a week.

 

I mean I guess? It does sound like a cool concept but a lot of us have jobs, schools to go to and as nice as it sounds, missing out because you were busy for one specific hour of the week feels kinda demoralizing. I honestly think the idea of keeping it once a week, but have it happen several times that day is a good fix.

 

bro another thing thats so annoying and i missed 3 annis cuz of it im a good party ok BUT THEN THE FRICKING WORLD RESTARTS EXACTLY A FEW MINS BFR ANNI THEN THE PARTY GETS SCATTERED WORLDS are full and its game over u just wasted ur time

 

I totally agree, I think each week there should be a day where it spawns every 3-4 hours or something. Let's say it's a Saturday to start with, then the next week it'd be a Friday, then a Thursday, just so that it changes which day it's on each week, plus there's a few chances on that day.

 

If that’s the case then why not just have it run a couple times each day on the weekend? (Like Friday Saturday and Sunday) that way it is still special but more accessible for people who’s schedules will not line up.

To remedy the loot circulation, just add a weekly lockout for players, where they don’t get more loot caches if they’ve already cleared once that week. With the lockout, you can still help your buddies out on future attempts who haven’t gotten their weekly cache yet. Im pretty sure this is already a thing with weekly Guild Objectives.

 

Annihilation being once a week is easily one of the biggest disappointments of the update.

So what if it limits loot, the other thing it limits is fun. I have yet to fight the boss myself, but I've seen screenshots on discord of hundreds of playerghosts in the Roots of Corruption and 10-player parties. I've seen my friends coordinate to fight this boss together. For the first time since swarms were removed, I feel like Wynncraft finally has a piece of massive group content that also doesn't lead to people being partykicked because they're wearing morph. And it comes with a custom boss that would've been unthinkable in the game 5 years ago.

And all of that will be limited to once a week.

In fact, it's less than once a week for a lot of people, due to people having work or other activities, or maybe even crashing. Crashing during a swarm sucked, and those were once every few hours.

I think that having Anni be a few times a day, or once every other day, would still lead to the fight being special, while also making it more accessible. Rewards could obviously be tweaked to compensate.

 

Alternatively, why not have it occur fairly often (once, maybe twice a day?) but put a 7 day cooldown on the loot, or maybe participation. It'll keep it special and the loot rare, but make it much more accessible.

 

Personally, I think it should be once a year

 

I do recall the update changelog saying you would be able to fight Annie on all worlds, but currently the event only starts on a few worlds which get filled up immediately. The one time I did manage to get lucky and join a world with the event, Annie knocked me into lava 3 times in a row and then instakilled me. Obviously that's more of a skill issue, but it sucks that this is a once a week event.

 

Tooo many OP items going in if its not once a week

 

i'm confused by this
if item circulation is the problem
aren't all of the anni mythics untradable already???

 

Personally, I think annihilation should've been a 1 time event on the first day of the update

 

Honestly I think it should spawn on weekends but every 4-5h after that. Timezones combined with IRL jobs and stuff will likely gate most players out of it, not to mention the queue and finding a good party is already really hard and Its still summer (near the end) Most people including me likely wont get into annie again after.

 

That’s a bit too often. In my opinion, it should run once in the beta and then never again

 

Too soon, it should run the moment the last star in the universe dies

 

Ngl it should've happened once (during the big bang) and only once

 

Is lowering the reward rate not an alternative here
