So, in the most recent "hotfix" or whatever (linking to this thread cuz it seems letting people know when pushing fixes out is too much to ask for 🙄 https://discord.com/channels/143852930036924417/1022311361423880262 ), scrolls now REQUIRE the players within the area to have the same level as the materials used in the scroll - this benefits nobody in the entirety of wynn (devs, ct, level grinders, newbie players, etc.) and I don't know whether this is intentional or not, but it's an awful change literally no one asked for.

Tl;dr - you can't "power level" anymore, pls change this to how it was before like

Didn’t know this change existed because I don’t use scrolls that often but this sounds like a net negative for both the community and the health of the game. Please revert.

For comparison's sake - you can't use a scroll for a player that's level 102 with a scroll made with dernic materials

why is the text vertical

#

I couldn't read this because it's written like a fucking ancient script

imo its a positive thing as it it was pretty op. having high level scrolls at any level is like putting on endgame gear at any level

limpid geyser
#

I agree, but it's so dumb a level 103 scroll (dernic) can't be used on a level 102 player

strange smelt
#

hmm for a small level gap i guess its not really a problem

#

idk maybe it would be better if it worked up to 10 levels below or smth

limpid geyser
#

Like, at least make it so the scroll used has like a 10 level range, like hunted mode with other hunted players

strange smelt
#

damn we had the exact same idea 🤣

limpid geyser
#

I can see it working but this without even letting anyone know is just ridiculous

Why drop it overnight tho, it doesn't hurt to let people know y'know (my point on the other thread i linked)

I came here to comment as a speedleveller that this barely has an effect on anything after lvl 15 purely because other game mechanics are not balanced enough to make much more of an impact than a slight change in consumable combination for speedlevelling.

Whilst I assume the giving random players excessive amounts of steroids is probably the reason this was put in place it does very little to address the actual ways in which you can break wynn's levelling progression at the expense of making dernic scroll mats quite a bit more shit compared to sky.

Bit of a weird change imo because scrolls just saved time grinding for players whove already played through the game before and I dont think it really made the experience of the game worse for anyone to be able to speed through the first levels without much effort on repeat playthroughs

though even then I feel like the biggest impact is wars, endgame grinding, and corrupted dungeons. People can't just use dernic mats for everything endgame now.

That and also for speedlevelling after lvl 45 scrolls just are mostly unnecessary since scribing being worse than other profs in how much of a boost you can get starts becoming felt more. The point on how speedlevelling just saves effort for people levelling their like 10th or so class is also kind of important since scrolls are more accessive as a method of speedlevelling compared to other ones just basically gatekeeping fast game progression and discouraging people from making new classes.

#

at least make it so you need to be within 10 levels of the player using it to be able to get the effects.

Ig one of the redeeming qualities of this "killing" of grind parties is that prices for lower level mats will skyrocket, which I don't know if it's a good thing or not considering profs are already kinda iffy to force onto players

While yes that is true, to make more durable scrolls you'll have to get to either get the mats yourself or buy them from TM, hence the skyrocketing of prices maybe

I would enjoy becoming a temporary god as a level 1 but I guess that can't happen anymore

Salted after finding out people were buffing other players using the consumables he designed to buff other players:

I kinda don't understand why they made this change cause as pointed out by Maracas this literally only was used by already endgame players for the most part to save time.

Anyone over lvl 45 can still very easily get ~6-8 levels every dxp bomb without scrolls so I also don't understand how this does anything but slightly inconvenience people at the early levels and seriously annoy people who aren't at dernic levels trying to climb the last few lvls

well it popped on the hotfix

Really big L change, if they wanted to do something like this they could’ve done something like reduced effectiveness

I dont know why they keep trying to kill power leveling

lvl 105 scribing ings be like

limpid geyser
#

10 level gap / reduced effectiveness is way better than whatever we were given, yeah

upbeat void
#

i like reduced effectiveness

boreal nacelle
#

I do understand reduced effectiveness can be janky at times though

#

like 80% reduction of 1 still is 1 on crafteds iirc

violet dirge
#

It would be 0

boreal nacelle
#

like if it was 1.0000000000000001 it would still be 2 I thought

1 attack speed accessories for example go down to 0 ats as soon as they hit the threshold to start degrading

thought it was the other way around
