Consider this - you bought upwards of 300 bombs (completely random number) to further your progress in HICH, then you get sniped by some dumb BS that doesn't make any sense. But people did benefit from your bombs. Did your money go to waste?

If you ask me, saying that "Travis' class died and the bombs were essential to his progress" is a selfish argument. At the end of the day, the status will not be refunded, nor will the bombs - due to the strict no-refunds policy. Is it a loss? Yes. Is it a net loss for everyone? No, as it is not a complete waste. Bombs benefit the entire server, which is their intended use. Even though he lost HIC, he helped further the progress of other players on the server.

If you're thinking Travis' loss is above everyone else's benefit because while non-challenge classes benefit from it, the one challenge class Travis was running died at the end - then I won't argue. Professions are hard to grind and bombs are almost seen as essential, but if a challenge dies, it is never a waste, because the progress of other challenge runs, if any, are furthered with his help. Shame about the lost bombs and progress, but ultimately, my argument is that he did not waste anything.

Also worth mentioning as a counterthesis to my argument is that in Runescape (a MMORPG that I see as being fairly similar to Wynncraft), for Hardcore accounts, extra lives are available in the event some weird glitch happens/lag decides to be an asshole and the player dies. Can Wynn benefit from this so we don't have classes die to absurd bugs or player negligence/mistake? Probably.

If a HIC class (or for that matter any Hardcore class) dies, it's grayed out for good - even if it is a death to a nasty glitch.

The problem is that it is technically a "refund" of a grayed out status back to active, and due to the strict no refunds policy, it cannot be reinstated. However, after two failures, completing a HIC will definitely feel much more rewarding.

Go down in history as someone who beat HIC? How about going down in history as someone who persevered through two high level challenge fails but still managed to do it in the end, beacuse you didn't quit and powered through the challenge by sheer perseverance? By no means you're a failure because you couldn't beat the challenge. You're only a failure if you give up. So don't give up, no matter what!

But linny has had a HIC restored to life, i dont see why you guys have this double standard where some bugs are refund worthy and some arent, it seems really unfair to turn to travis and say such a thing when its clearly not true. If you didn't know about it obviously thats fine, but since you know about it now, i think it would be nice of you guys to reconsider your initial statement.

Revive the HIC! It's not fair for him to die to glitches and then get nothing in return even after reporting it.

So the time is near to a new update.. I'm super excited. I really am. But with this update has come a lot of stress and preparation.

You may know me as Draggo,Travis,The guy who throws prof parties,The guy who shouts stupid things, etc.. the list could go on.

Starting today; I will no longer be playing the HIC challenge. I give up. I'm a failure. I had really wanted to complete the challenge in 1.19 at least once but it seems I am absolutely out of time. So I will be taking a reprieve from the challenge.

I began the HIC Challenge when I saw Linnyflower aka warm_fleris talk more and more about it and how enjoyable it was. After being very impressed with their 120 all prof levels on a HIC class meanwhile I had just broken to 110s I was astonished. I didn't immediately want to play HIC after seeing this however. In fact, a few months pass and I am pulled into playing ironman with Linny, GraphicNovel, Sir7alot, and tapiocamuffin. We leveled these classes to about level 50 and I liked the gamemode extremely. So, one day I decided I would make my first HIC class; a dark wizard. To make the story sweet and short IT DIED TO A FALL DAMAGE GLITCH IN POINT OF NO RETURN. I have made numerous complaints to admins and any support I could find. My efforts were not rewarded and I still have the NEARLY COMPLETE LEVEL 102 HIC. I went into a spiral of rejection, depression, and finally acceptance. After accepting it has died I made another. My Lv97 Skyseer. TODAY IT HAS DIED. I don't feel like talking about how it died right now as it's still an extremely sore subject.

Please read the above spoiler for more info but I REALLY NEED YOUR GUYS HELP. Not only has this challenge cost me hours of my life to complete, hundreds of dollars in bombs, and just way too much emotional and mental distress.

I would like the subject of my Dark Wizard HICs revival to be a topic among many of you and I want to hear your guys opinions on if it should be revived or not. I know the voices of a few of my friends wont do all that much but it's at least something and this may get some attention by someone who can intervene and help revive the class. Otherwise, I think I will be dropping the HIC challenge and depending on my satisfaction of the 1.20... I may stop playing Wynncraft altogether.

Hi!

First of all, we're really sorry that this happened to you.

Upon thinking about your situation and the overall sentiment toward the HICH challenge, we have decided to restore your class as you provided evidence of an issue you had no control over which cost you to fail the challenge.

Bugs are on our shoulders to fix and we are always looking to improve the game in any way we can, the issue you highlighted has already been fixed for the 1.20 update. Failing this difficult challenge due to our own errors shouldn't condemn you to start over, even more so, so close to the end. We will be looking into and discussing what policy we can put in place to keep the challenge as difficult but improve its fairness to ensure you, the players, can experience it in the best possible way.

Calling Travis' first HIC a failure is a misrepresentation of what happened. He died to a glitch which was completely out of his own hands. What is a failure is the way the Wynncraft team responded to this issue.
