I seriously don't get the disliking of shaman. I find the damage incredible. You can clear any cave with ease by just popping down a totem and casting aura a couple times. You can just walk around your totem as summoner for a while and the boss will die. You can grind enemies from 30 blocks away underground with no risk by just shooting straight down. You can throw a totem into restricted areas like the graveyard at nemract and kill everything from a safe distance. Shaman has always been the best and most fun class for me and I cant stop going back to it no matter how hard I try to use a different class
As a warrior main for 10 long years it makes me tear up to see a day where warrior is great and has a fun playstyle. I still remember the days when I had to uppercut cancel to do mediocre damage. Also the many times people told me to switch to assassin because it was "better warrior".

Good question! and thank you :) I believe that is because Wynncraft itself is underrated, especially in the media world. Despite the server having player peaks of 2,000, this server doesn't get as much attention as you would expect. There are not enough dedicated Wynncraft channels of high enough quality to spread the word and lets plays/gameplay series typically do not do well (with rare exceptions: ChaosDragon), which is pretty discouraging. Despite the niche audience, I still think it's worth the time I have invested. YT channels always need to start somewhere and I'm filling a big hole for a big server! works out for me, I'd say! His channel is too small to be a Wynncraft Media rank, but I recommend checking out @Boxcart - they make some of my favorite Wynncraft videos
@@loonitick This is true, but I also think the issue is with youtube audience itself being more attracted to shitty content like a random guy screaming and dancing on a chair every time random stuff happens (I think you know who I am talking about). More than that I also think that the quantity > quality motive also kicks in, which may be the reason why wynncraft's reach is limited. Anyways, thanks for the recommendations and I am looking forward to watching your next videos! Cheers
I don’t know why, but for whatever reason paladin has placed me on a continuous villain arc, mocking my opponents as they attempt to make me glance at my health bar. But they never realized… that I was the boss now, and this world is MY dungeon! SMIIITE!!! I mean sacred surge uhh
It's funny how Paladin is like "my armor can endure far more than you can," battle monk is like "swift as the wind," and fallen is like "uhhh please let me live I just want to try please"
I think boltslinger deserves a higher spot in the fun tier list. Casting casting a few spells then running circles around enemies at Mach speed is very fun.
I love how compared to many other tier list videos on TH-cam this one was blatantly optimistic and generous to every item in the list, giving them all some form of benefit of the doubt. I mostly agree with all these opinions, great video as usual!
thank you very much! I definitely prefer to stick to a more optimistic way of scripting, and it's not like its forced at all. As you can see with Shaman or Riftwalker, I was clear about when I didn't like something. Most of the classes are similarly balanced, surprisingly. The builds near the top just have a better max DPS, great survivability built into the archetype, or are easier to build & play
I have been wanting to come back to Wynncraft for a while now, I left when the eye boss was introduced because I didn’t have the time anymore. When they introduced the new archetypes, I didn’t know what I should pick. So thanks man

Acolyte is the best. Totem wins the 2nd place award for being the best companion in the game, it keeps me alive and deals with hordes. I often question why people shatter their totem, it's almost as if they want to intentionally murder it. Also, if you are wondering what the best companion is, it's the boat.
The existence of olympic makes aco/ritu s tier imo, terms of both funness and overall. That relik singlehandedly carries the entire class for me as a shaman enjoyer. Olympic acolyte with lunatic mask somehow manages to be an op braindead playstyle that also has a risk/reward system Jumping away from all your problems is incredible
Olympic is great! im not the biggest fan of Shaman, but you can tell that I still think it's good enough to not have any of its archetypes end up in B tier. It *could* and should be more interesting, which is my only wish. Acolyte is based
yea! the stance-based idea is super awesome. i need to make some videos on playstyles related to it. for new players, Shaman starts off pretty damn strong
Too bad that people only use the yellow one (I forgot the names of them) for combat. The white one is used to travel and the green one is used only against a single opponent or to shatter... it would be a lot better if the three masks' debuffs were reduced and the damage of the yellow one was reduced so you ever have a reason to fight with the others
the name of the game! Wynncraft takes pride in its gameplay loop and having such unique variety with the classes really makes the experience just that much better
To elaborate (for those not in the know), Mantle of the Bovemists is another effect which triggers upon using War Scream, granting a shield for a small amount of time. This allows more control over your own corrupt status (such as spamming Armour Breaker/giant quadBash without fear of death)
in my experience playing light bender, i think it could actually take on arcanist in terms of spell spam, if you invest into mana steal on your gear. The ophanim orbs proc mana steal, so every single one of your hits gives you more mana to heal / teleport / recast orbs. I happened to get a really good mana steal id on my haquerphix and ive been having a great time
You can actually get mana storm on riftwalker but the at is very tight on points. I'll have to try it soon on my lameme build to see if I can actually butcher my mouse or not. Great video nontheless, you convinced me to try arcanist once I get a any other mythic wand in the game
it's mentioned (in text, above Manastorm ability image) when im talking about Riftwalker. also the entire Macro Mage section and its existence was only possible because of Manastorm. what an absolutely wild ability still an endgame requirement and Macros were recently nerfed so you're still better off just using Arcanist (or admittedly, Light Bender might just be more worth using now)
goddamn, as someone who played back when you still had to actually pull back your bow as an archer to shoot, it’s insane how much wynncraft has changed
Been playing mage since 2013 and went to light bender when 2.0 dropped. I tried arcanist but couldn't get past the lack of heal spell. Well the recent double xp weekend gave me a chance to start a new character so I tried arcanist. In short, it's now my favourite and I've done every cave in the game aside from the ones in silent expanse and I'm not even level 90 yet. Champ set + morph accessories is so broken I stg
@@loonitick fr, i did Reincarnation at the same level as my first time on mage and when i did it the first time i fought Bob for a good 10 minutes, dealing with the swords and attack patterns and phases. Went in with a full mana bank, cast 5 meteors in his face and killed the mage phase so fast i thought it was actually the last phase and that he'd gone invisible when actually he just died. I've never had this kind of damage output before in wynncraft, it feels amazing
Got a couple college friends to hop on the server with me and we spent like 2 hours picking classes now i can just send them this so thank you for saving me time :D
Your initial description of shamans is spot on. I love playing dedicated healers and acolytes are the best healers, but constantly needing a summoned totem and having to summon it every 30 seconds makes me very frustrated with the class.
i appreciate the thoughtful comment! Yes, the classes that do well without high skill/lots of effort are still rated pretty high in this tier list. Sharpshooter, Light Bender, Acrobat (its not high CPS, but a learned technique), and yea. Spell Spam naturally is busted so classes like Trickster and Battle Monk/Fallen are really good, but even then Battle Monk has a very viable low CPS playstyle-- Bash Scream
From my experience playing a lot of shaman and mage light weaver too I find the summoner class to be not all that fun and quite boring. And while I like the healing of light weaver it doesn’t have the nuking potential (while still having super good healing) of acolyte, using weapons that buff spell damage will turn this class into a nuke with both the increased damage of aura and uproots final upgrade that turns it into a boss melting laser beam. Lately I’ve also been using a lot of ritualist. While not as high damage as acolyte it’s more quality of life and fun oriented, being able to go fast is very nice and the ability to switch to a bit more of a tanky build in sticky situations with just one spell is very handy. It’s main draw is being able to fit in any situation without needing a new build such as traversing Wynn, tanking a big attack or swarm clear. It’s overall very fun
bolt is good you just have to have pieces of armer that are built around increasing max damage by percentage. It is also good for clearing loads of mobs.
There's a cool, new playstyle that utilizes Haunting Mask spam, and I find it extremely cool-- especially since it will naturally activate the Chants on cooldown wynnbuilder.github.io/builder?v=4#8_0xi0Pf0r507W0x30Nm0K40OH0QX0o0o221D1I1g00001004fI0z0z0+0+0+0+0-ztRUhCh40 otherwise, using it for Tier Stack is whatever. It does the most DPS but it's really boring. In addition, the crafted nerf kinda brought Ritualist's top DPS down and Acolyte went back to being the best DPS (Hadal)
@@loonitick thx for sharing the build! how does this playstyle work? (what's the spell cycle, what mechanics does it use etc) im not familiar with ritualist but i do have the fanta needed for the build so it feels like a waste not to try it lol
@@notbaldyoolin9974 It's Haunting Mask (Uproot) spam for good single target dps. You also utilize aura for spell cost reductions. Charge up Awakened mask by casting totem with Fanatic Mask and Lower (orange wybel relik)
I quit playing Wynncraft when this update released. I was a lootrunning Archer that loved my speed 3, and I had a Shaman that I honestly didn't know what to do with yet. I feel like this update was too complicated for me. Any advice on how to get back into it?
As a Rift walker I agree It sucks, but Going Mach 3 even if it takes you 2 minutes to get that fast and it only lasts like 2 seconds, it's kind of fun (ignoring the fact you can also just teleport)
Gaaaah yea I've changed my mind about Boltslinger. It's fun but it's still just spell spam without any real substance. There's just a nice risk and reward from playing up close as a ranged class
No one can tell me that playing palamonk with 120k+ ehp from mantle constantly on and 120k dps is not the most fun you will ever have. you are a GOD also something something ritualist bug with perma awakened salted please fix
i fuckin love Paladin. I've been using a hella chunker Guardian heavy hybrid build and it's the most lunatic experience ever (constantly taking damage for top DPS-- endurance moment)
@@bikshrimp i gotchu! for future reference, all of my builds are on my discord :) here you go: hppeng-wynn.github.io/builder?v=4#8_0D80RZ0x70QR0OQ0OQ0ZR0Ji0Qb0t110y22071g1000CO1007cC10000U1000CO1006CO0z0z0+0+0+0+0-lFyxzW-2 you can use Charging Flame as a offhand for movement mwuahahaa it's actually made for lootruns, but I use it in raids too lol.

boltslinger my beloved I just love walking up to an ennemy and going full dakka with arrow shield becoming sentient bows I can get free xp while travelling and rocket jump + free speed boost is somthing that made me forget horses exist
maaan i love boltslinger too, at the time though they had kept nerfing Boltslinger and then people were experimenting with this dogass Bolt playstyle so my Bolt tier was defo wrong at the time of making this
Hi, Love your video! Is there any resource where I can find builds for leveling and endgame builds? Or how would you recommend leveling a class for someone who new?
frums is so good but a lot of their music is far too experimental to easily fit into videos need to learn how to include more atmospheric moments in my video that won't kill video retention so i can use more Frums music lol
RiftBender is fundamentally Light Bender. Hybrids were considered into the tier list, as well as how they involve other archetypes. The video could be half an hour long if i really wanted to go into detail about all the nuance in this Tier List :3
i mained acro because tricko somehow felt harder probably because the first try i did with it was LI on an etw low walkspeed build with no idea how to play and that experience kept me from trying properly
yea that's understandable. i need to make a proper video about Trickster maybe. it borders brain-off S tier and the clones provide a ton of EHP. The build concept is pretty easy: get 4 Jump height and make sure you use Multi Hit. And losing clones reduces your Mirror Image cooldown so that you can spawn your clones back in even quicker. Here's a build I recommend for learning Trickrobat: No-Mythic Flameshot Hilt hppeng-wynn.github.io/builder?v=4#8_0cD0u70x70tv0TQ0vI0K40OH0Gc0y11111G0t1g000000z0z0+0+0+0+0-ldxakIZu2C
didn't know clones reduced clone cd, i guess sandbagging triggers with clone dmg reduction the time i struggled was months ago, and now i feel pretty confident about knowing how the game works that i have the urge to try something new also i love fshilt might try it out before getting into etw territory again
hey i have a silly little video idea. I think a video explaining the different warrior playstyles would be awesome. i keep hearing about ‘scream surfing’ and ‘charge spamming’ but i have no idea how to effectively do it. Maybe you could explain some of the play styles in more depth 😼
Hey looni, big fan of the content. I want to get back into wynncraft, and max a class (highest lvl is a 60 something assassin), however im struggling to choose a class. Any pointers on deciding a class? Keep up the great work
nah i was just being mad about Riftwalker's shitty design. it's still pretty good, i just prefer Arcanist and think it's better overall (the tierlist is not just endgame)
I actually love using Paladin supporting my teammates with my extremely tanky build that i can barely die, and tbh Shaman summoner is also useful for supporting low levels, like you do a tanky build with high health and with a Silent Ballet, you can just heal newbies without stealing mobs from them!
Silent Ballet is very very nice for that, yea Not many times for tank Paladin to be useful. Guardian's major id granting resistance to nearby players is dope though
@@loonitick tbh it actually does look weird, I have the wands and other stuffs textures but I don’t have the hp, mana and bar type of stuffs aren’t those textures that you have, all I have is the hearts and hunger bar instead of the mana and health that you have.
i answered this on stream, but just for anyone wondering: Rewind's Major ID "Sorcery" does not work for clones. Roiling Ruckus works out better for the trickster build playstyle far better.
A new player should pick assassin for the survivability, then try out archer or warrior, then mage, then shaman. I know it's different for every player, but that's what Bob did, so...
I'm starting tonget back into wynncraft as a warrior now (played as a arcanist mage and acrobat assasin) but don't exactly know what to do with warrior. Got some tips?
I'm a year late but here's some things: -Lightbender, although quite strong, has the most simplistic playstyle ever (like 3 meteors per fight and a heal spell every 3 seconds) -Arcanist is really fun to play, with spell spamming, but sadly it doesn't have enough single target dps. -Riftwalker is absolutely BUSTED but also really boring. Suprisingly, end game builds of these spell spam more then arcanist. Please just take this comment with a grain of salt.
Trickster is great! players still use it and there's a few ways to go about building it. It has more EHP (effective health) than Paladin with its clones and the aoe is pretty massive. If you're not digging it, Acrobat is pretty unique albeit heavy on the mechanics. might have trouble figuring it out... (i have a guide for that)
I have like the direct opposite opinion from this video but still find it making sense? Boltslinger and trickster are basically lag machines. Arcanist is riftwalker with more damage but no heal(trading heal for more intense spellspam is unacceptable for og mage player, we pick mage for the heal, please at least give us new abilities? I rather go for the alien lightbender) I actually watch this video for learning about what players think of arcanist for a rework suggestion 2.0 made Shaman op, especially ritualist, that stat boosts are ridiculous. I used spell-spam battle monk(double concentration) for leveling since it looks cool and early game paladin seems bad and I'd die playing fallen. Switched to poison palamonk at the mid to late game bottleneck.
mage is spell spam incarnate and Arcanist doubles down on that. very satisfying! shaman sucks BALLS other than mob grinding. i guess it does easy damage so you can cheese a fair amount of boss fights with the right build...
@@loonitick wait do you mean shaman being bad against Orphion and Greg etc because they have cc immunity and high speed? I understand what you mean now
idk if it has changed but the movement ability of shaman where you summon totem then move towards it REALLY frustrated me, and eventually led me to quitting, i wanna get back into wynncraft, is that still the case? i mostly play solo so i just want something with simple movement ability and decent dmg
i believe they made it so Mask of the Coward's Frog Dance no longer requires a totem making it very fun and convenient to use. You could also play any other class if you don't enjoy that part about Shaman lol
@@loonitick that's very good to know, thanks for taking the time responding. To me shaman just sounds the coolest out of all of the classes, so I wanna stick to it if possible.😍
I really liked the video. There are no questions to the list itself, but I would like to clarify the modification, аt 9:53, you can see a circle that most likely shows the radius of the spell. And I'd like to know the name. I would be extremely grateful to anyone who answers.
Hey 👋, new to the Channel. Will you maybe do a Vid about the mythic bow "Spring" as a Sharpshooter? I'm kind of stuck between Epoche (because expensive) and Spring and I don't know really know which one to get 😅. Thx for your help 🫡😂 By the way agree that Sharpshooter is the "strongest" out of those three :)
Hey Looni. You might remember me from your stream or the comment section. After the Invigorating bug fix to shaman, I have been storming with a rework idea for Shaman that I will suggest.
I recommend reading this! It might not be turret gun puppets but it's an amazing proposal forums.wynncraft.com/threads/friends-on-the-other-side-a-summoner-remake-proposal.310161/
I have no idea how to feel about this, this is way better than what I would make. Maybe I shouldn't make the the 20 page document or whatever. This is possible the best thing I've ever seen. I hope this get shipped to main one day.
@@blastcraft9067 unfortunately the person who suggested it is completely not interested in joining the CT, so i have no clue if there will be something that meets the vision. However, any updates that add abilities that put Summoner in that direction would be amazing
@@loonitick Exactly, like I am extremely depressed that I am such a worthless person (in game), like Summoner is all damage. Don't care what anyone says about regeneration healing and effigy cc.

@Looni I’m a recently new player and after seeing your video I realized I was a all rounder of my shaman class and now I want to focus on the acolyte class but I don’t know that actually I’m supposed to choose for the skill tree .
Genuinely extremely miffed that macro mage isn’t a thing anymore, Riftwalker is my favorite archetype only because TIMELOCKED exists… however none of this matters because the only thing that matters to me in an archetype is performance against bosses and Riftwalker is great at that, could not care less about literally any other aspect of the game (yes this is partially coping)
tbh i love shaman but im stuck between summoner and riturlist, cause having stuff fight for me and letting me heal in a corner is super cool but also doing the fighting \urself but draining damage is just concerning too me idk what to route to go to tbh
Shadestepper for leveling and general game immersion. Acrobat is more fun later on when the archetype has full access to its ability roster. Trickster is just spellspam and kinda boring
I'm slightly offended by the placing of Riftwalker, but its fine... This is totally not biased. "Not having heal is good!"-Godly being with very real higher intelligence. Still a good vid!
it is pro level coping, that's for sure. Riftwalker had its moment to shine with the whole macro situation but now thats gone. Riftwalker still almost either fully relies on Arcanist's Manastorm or Lunar Spine abuse for any sort of mana sustain
too bad, i play riftwalker sucessfully without a macro. sure, it may not be as good as arcanist but it's still quite decent event without arcanist abilities or lunar spine abuse, or macros.
@@Riverlightt let me tell you, if you're enjoying it now... you will surely enjoy it even more once Xavier's plans go through to make it a more fun design :3
trapper has more summons than summoner
trickster clones reduce more total damage than paladin's mantle
acolyte is more ritualist than ritualist
there seems to be a trend...
This proves that trickster players should give up on that jumping bs and embrace tank 💪
From that we could conclude:
- people who make traps have many pets to test their traps on
- having someone else being the target is better any armor you can find
- playing with blood automatically make you a cult member
winded is marked but takes 5 times longer to charge

it's mentioned (in text, above Manastorm ability image) when im talking about Riftwalker. also the entire Macro Mage section and its existence was only possible because of Manastorm. what an absolutely wild ability
still an endgame requirement and Macros were recently nerfed so you're still better off just using Arcanist (or admittedly, Light Bender might just be more worth using now)
goddamn, as someone who played back when you still had to actually pull back your bow as an archer to shoot, it’s insane how much wynncraft has changed
it's changed tremendously
Absolute facts about Acrobat being the most fun.
Trying out Fallen next.
I started with acolyte shaman and always looked at it as a ‘grenade throwing’ class.. just chuck a totem in a room and hit aura, boom everything dies.
i stand by the fact that shade is the best
How does it feel knowing that 90% of viable shade playstyle is just going hmelee
@@bliss6417pog
as a weathered shadestepper/trickster hybrid player my damage is lamentable but atleast i have vanish!!! :(
Been playing mage since 2013 and went to light bender when 2.0 dropped. I tried arcanist but couldn't get past the lack of heal spell. Well the recent double xp weekend gave me a chance to start a new character so I tried arcanist. In short, it's now my favourite and I've done every cave in the game aside from the ones in silent expanse and I'm not even level 90 yet. Champ set + morph accessories is so broken I stg
It's such a cool archetype lol
@@loonitick fr, i did Reincarnation at the same level as my first time on mage and when i did it the first time i fought Bob for a good 10 minutes, dealing with the swords and attack patterns and phases. Went in with a full mana bank, cast 5 meteors in his face and killed the mage phase so fast i thought it was actually the last phase and that he'd gone invisible when actually he just died. I've never had this kind of damage output before in wynncraft, it feels amazing
God this video is amazing, I loved every second of it (even if my archetype got put in B lol) Keep up the amazing work man :D
thank you! (sorry about that)
rewatching this video a year later, man what an absolute banger
music has super saucy moment at 5:38 lol
Got a couple college friends to hop on the server with me and we spent like 2 hours picking classes now i can just send them this so thank you for saving me time :D
ayyyy of course. just doing my best to save everyone's time
Your initial description of shamans is spot on. I love playing dedicated healers and acolytes are the best healers, but constantly needing a summoned totem and having to summon it every 30 seconds makes me very frustrated with the class.
That’s not an issue lol. You have to be very impatient to have an issue with that
your videos just get better and better, no matter what, you keep making Wynncraft very fun and interesting
i appreciate the thoughtful comment! Yes, the classes that do well without high skill/lots of effort are still rated pretty high in this tier list. Sharpshooter, Light Bender, Acrobat (its not high CPS, but a learned technique), and yea. Spell Spam naturally is busted so classes like Trickster and Battle Monk/Fallen are really good, but even then Battle Monk has a very viable low CPS playstyle-- Bash Scream
From my experience playing a lot of shaman and mage light weaver too I find the summoner class to be not all that fun and quite boring. And while I like the healing of light weaver it doesn’t have the nuking potential (while still having super good healing) of acolyte, using weapons that buff spell damage will turn this class into a nuke with both the increased damage of aura and uproots final upgrade that turns it into a boss melting laser beam. Lately I’ve also been using a lot of ritualist. While not as high damage as acolyte it’s more quality of life and fun oriented, being able to go fast is very nice and the ability to switch to a bit more of a tanky build in sticky situations with just one spell is very handy. It’s main draw is being able to fit in any situation without needing a new build such as traversing Wynn, tanking a big attack or swarm clear. It’s overall very fun
bolt is good you just have to have pieces of armer that are built around increasing max damage by percentage. It is also good for clearing loads of mobs.
The fact that Gurren Lagann theme played when Warrior was introduced was an icing to the cake ❤❤❤
Best music for best class
Acrobat is top of S after benadryl kicks in
mosquito totem bites
nice use of XNOR XNOR XNOR, never thought i'd hear someone use it
i love the song! might use different parts of it in an upcoming video ;)
Ritualist gets so slept on, easily the most fun and best archetype for shaman
There's a cool, new playstyle that utilizes Haunting Mask spam, and I find it extremely cool-- especially since it will naturally activate the Chants on cooldown
wynnbuilder.github.io/builder?v=4#8_0xi0Pf0r507W0x30Nm0K40OH0QX0o0o221D1I1g00001004fI0z0z0+0+0+0+0-ztRUhCh40
otherwise, using it for Tier Stack is whatever. It does the most DPS but it's really boring. In addition, the crafted nerf kinda brought Ritualist's top DPS down and Acolyte went back to being the best DPS (Hadal)
@@loonitick thx for sharing the build! how does this playstyle work? (what's the spell cycle, what mechanics does it use etc)
im not familiar with ritualist but i do have the fanta needed for the build so it feels like a waste not to try it lol
@@notbaldyoolin9974 It's Haunting Mask (Uproot) spam for good single target dps. You also utilize aura for spell cost reductions.

I quit playing Wynncraft when this update released. I was a lootrunning Archer that loved my speed 3, and I had a Shaman that I honestly didn't know what to do with yet. I feel like this update was too complicated for me. Any advice on how to get back into it?
start from a level 1 class and learn things like how you're supposed to
Good thing I'm not a Shadestepper anymore so now I can use the Roiling Ruckus to it's full power!
Roiling Ruckus is absolutely busted
@@loonitick I KNOW RIGHT!!! I can't believe I have been missing out on this all this time!
Amazing taste in music!
As a Rift walker I agree It sucks, but Going Mach 3 even if it takes you 2 minutes to get that fast and it only lasts like 2 seconds, it's kind of fun (ignoring the fact you can also just teleport)
almost a year later, which class and archetype would your recommend in terms of just being the best?
wait boltslinger isn't as fun as the other two? why haven't I been told this? I thought being an semi-auto shotgun with arrow hurricane is fun
Gaaaah yea I've changed my mind about Boltslinger. It's fun but it's still just spell spam without any real substance. There's just a nice risk and reward from playing up close as a ranged class
No one can tell me that playing palamonk with 120k+ ehp from mantle constantly on and 120k dps is not the most fun you will ever have. you are a GOD
also something something ritualist bug with perma awakened salted please fix
i fuckin love Paladin. I've been using a hella chunker Guardian heavy hybrid build and it's the most lunatic experience ever (constantly taking damage for top DPS-- endurance moment)

lots of variety within each class! it's very nice
boltslinger my beloved I just love walking up to an ennemy and going full dakka with arrow shield becoming sentient bows I can get free xp while travelling and rocket jump + free speed boost is somthing that made me forget horses exist
maaan i love boltslinger too, at the time though they had kept nerfing Boltslinger and then people were experimenting with this dogass Bolt playstyle so my Bolt tier was defo wrong at the time of making this

@@floritide you could steal it from the resource pack maybe but i couldnt help you with that
So how would you rate a hybrid playstyle like Riftbender,Fallen+Paladin? Are they gonna be sitting in the spot of their main archetypes?
RiftBender is fundamentally Light Bender. Hybrids were considered into the tier list, as well as how they involve other archetypes. The video could be half an hour long if i really wanted to go into detail about all the nuance in this Tier List :3
@@loonitickAnd??? We love your content, make a video about all the hybrids and we'll watch it
i mained acro because tricko somehow felt harder
probably because the first try i did with it was LI on an etw low walkspeed build with no idea how to play and that experience kept me from trying properly
yea that's understandable. i need to make a proper video about Trickster maybe. it borders brain-off S tier and the clones provide a ton of EHP. The build concept is pretty easy: get 4 Jump height and make sure you use Multi Hit. And losing clones reduces your Mirror Image cooldown so that you can spawn your clones back in even quicker.
Here's a build I recommend for learning Trickrobat:
No-Mythic Flameshot Hilt

didn't know clones reduced clone cd, i guess sandbagging triggers with clone dmg reduction
the time i struggled was months ago, and now i feel pretty confident about knowing how the game works that i have the urge to try something new
also i love fshilt
might try it out before getting into etw territory again
hey i have a silly little video idea. I think a video explaining the different warrior playstyles would be awesome. i keep hearing about ‘scream surfing’ and ‘charge spamming’ but i have no idea how to effectively do it. Maybe you could explain some of the play styles in more depth 😼
Got it :3
Hey looni, big fan of the content. I want to get back into wynncraft, and max a class (highest lvl is a 60 something assassin), however im struggling to choose a class. Any pointers on deciding a class? Keep up the great work
Warrior would be the easiest/best class to play again if you were to get back into it
@@loonitick Ty
Other classes exist? I only have archer in my class choice screen
on gobbity just click the green + and choose warrior so you have the easiest endgame experience
I heard after stacking a bit riftwalker does like 50k a meteor now, is it really worth it to play arcanist instead?
nah i was just being mad about Riftwalker's shitty design. it's still pretty good, i just prefer Arcanist and think it's better overall (the tierlist is not just endgame)
I actually love using Paladin supporting my teammates with my extremely tanky build that i can barely die, and tbh Shaman summoner is also useful for supporting low levels, like you do a tanky build with high health and with a Silent Ballet, you can just heal newbies without stealing mobs from them!
Silent Ballet is very very nice for that, yea
Not many times for tank Paladin to be useful. Guardian's major id granting resistance to nearby players is dope though
By the way, whats the resource pack that you use while playing? I have seen it multiple times from other people but never gotten an answer.
it's the Wynncraft texturepack. it should download automatically when joining the server if you have Server Resources: Enabled
@@loonitick I have it on but I still don’t see it, maybe its because I’m using labymod?
@@borking1893 no clue homie. things would look hella weird if you dont have the texturepack though
@@loonitick tbh it actually does look weird, I have the wands and other stuffs textures but I don’t have the hp, mana and bar type of stuffs aren’t those textures that you have, all I have is the hearts and hunger bar instead of the mana and health that you have.
@@borking1893 ok so for that, you would need to use Wynntils, a Wynncraft utility mod
hey looni just a question but wouldnt rewind be better for trickster with its major id and more avg dps?
i answered this on stream, but just for anyone wondering:
Rewind's Major ID "Sorcery" does not work for clones. Roiling Ruckus works out better for the trickster build playstyle far better.
Great Vid, Fun watch. I miss wynncraft
thank you for watching! if you watch wynncraft, you can just watch my videos 👉👈
I'm new to WynCraft, and i'm bored of hypixel i want to try something new, what class should I take for starting ?
warrior
@@loonitick oh, OK but i find the assassin coller, and also the archer one is looking pretty op. Why should i take warior ?
@@Ajamtroye because it's my favorite thats why lol
A new player should pick assassin for the survivability, then try out archer or warrior, then mage, then shaman. I know it's different for every player, but that's what Bob did, so...
I'm starting tonget back into wynncraft as a warrior now (played as a arcanist mage and acrobat assasin) but don't exactly know what to do with warrior. Got some tips?
Bash warsxream battlemonk
I'm a year late but here's some things:
-Lightbender, although quite strong, has the most simplistic playstyle ever (like 3 meteors per fight and a heal spell every 3 seconds)
-Arcanist is really fun to play, with spell spamming, but sadly it doesn't have enough single target dps.
-Riftwalker is absolutely BUSTED but also really boring. Suprisingly, end game builds of these spell spam more then arcanist.
Please just take this comment with a grain of salt.
He ain't kidding on reading all the comments 😅, Should I switch class? (currently Assassin) Is trickster good for end game? Thanks for answering ❤️
Trickster is great! players still use it and there's a few ways to go about building it. It has more EHP (effective health) than Paladin with its clones and the aoe is pretty massive. If you're not digging it, Acrobat is pretty unique albeit heavy on the mechanics. might have trouble figuring it out... (i have a guide for that)
I have like the direct opposite opinion from this video but still find it making sense?
Boltslinger and trickster are basically lag machines.
Arcanist is riftwalker with more damage but no heal(trading heal for more intense spellspam is unacceptable for og mage player, we pick mage for the heal, please at least give us new abilities? I rather go for the alien lightbender)
I actually watch this video for learning about what players think of arcanist for a rework suggestion
2.0 made Shaman op, especially ritualist, that stat boosts are ridiculous.
I used spell-spam battle monk(double concentration) for leveling since it looks cool and early game paladin seems bad and I'd die playing fallen. Switched to poison palamonk at the mid to late game bottleneck.
mage is spell spam incarnate and Arcanist doubles down on that. very satisfying!
shaman sucks BALLS other than mob grinding. i guess it does easy damage so you can cheese a fair amount of boss fights with the right build...
@@loonitick wait do you mean shaman being bad against Orphion and Greg etc because they have cc immunity and high speed? I understand what you mean now
@@loonitick maybe I have to try arcanist on my second mage profile

idk if it has changed but the movement ability of shaman where you summon totem then move towards it REALLY frustrated me, and eventually led me to quitting, i wanna get back into wynncraft, is that still the case? i mostly play solo so i just want something with simple movement ability and decent dmg
i believe they made it so Mask of the Coward's Frog Dance no longer requires a totem making it very fun and convenient to use. You could also play any other class if you don't enjoy that part about Shaman lol
@@loonitick that's very good to know, thanks for taking the time responding.
To me shaman just sounds the coolest out of all of the classes, so I wanna stick to it if possible.😍
I would not recommend Acolyte for beginner and mid level players. You really need to have a huge health pool and ability to constantly manage it
I like shadestepper just because i like backstab mechanics and his damage is pretty high.
I really liked the video. There are no questions to the list itself, but I would like to clarify the modification, аt 9:53, you can see a circle that most likely shows the radius of the spell. And I'd like to know the name. I would be extremely grateful to anyone who answers.
Its the radius of savior sacrifice
That's a feature in 1.19.4 Wynntils
@@loonitick Thanks!

Hey Looni.
You might remember me from your stream or the comment section.
After the Invigorating bug fix to shaman, I have been storming with a rework idea for Shaman that I will suggest.
I recommend reading this! It might not be turret gun puppets but it's an amazing proposal

I hope this get shipped to main one day.

@looni can I see the the shaman skill tree you went for acolyte
@Looni I’m a recently new player and after seeing your video I realized I was a all rounder of my shaman class and now I want to focus on the acolyte class but I don’t know that actually I’m supposed to choose for the skill tree .
Genuinely extremely miffed that macro mage isn’t a thing anymore, Riftwalker is my favorite archetype only because TIMELOCKED exists… however none of this matters because the only thing that matters to me in an archetype is performance against bosses and Riftwalker is great at that, could not care less about literally any other aspect of the game (yes this is partially coping)
tbh i love shaman but im stuck between summoner and riturlist, cause having stuff fight for me and letting me heal in a corner is super cool but also doing the fighting \urself but draining damage is just concerning too me
idk what to route to go to tbh
acolyte is fun but requires an actual build
summoner is the easiest choice tbh
Summoner to win, ritualist to fight with style, acolyte to wonder why you picked shaman
Im new in wynncraft, around lvl 40 with an assassin but still i dont get which out of the 3 (shade, trickester and acrobat) is better. Any tips?
Shadestepper for leveling and general game immersion. Acrobat is more fun later on when the archetype has full access to its ability roster. Trickster is just spellspam and kinda boring
Just started playing wynncraft as a warrior class, is fallen still worth going into? Also, how can i reset my skill tree?
fallen is cool, yea. u can reset with ability shards and doing a lv25 quest idk what it's called
Mastered being a bird as an assassin. Best class hands down.
I am just flying because I am bored at this point.
I think in acolyte is maybe s tier and not a because with a very good build you can do to over 4 million dps
I think arcanist is an S, it does huge damage but you need a mythic build for it to be viable, maybie i am wrong but i think arcanist is quite godly.
the fact it needs a mythic to be viable takes it out of S tier

brooo i got a really clean looking replaymod shot for that too. i did not think it would look that clean when i was rendering it lmao
I'm slightly offended by the placing of Riftwalker, but its fine... This is totally not biased. "Not having heal is good!"-Godly being with very real higher intelligence. Still a good vid!
it is pro level coping, that's for sure. Riftwalker had its moment to shine with the whole macro situation but now thats gone. Riftwalker still almost either fully relies on Arcanist's Manastorm or Lunar Spine abuse for any sort of mana sustain
too bad, i play riftwalker sucessfully without a macro. sure, it may not be as good as arcanist but it's still quite decent event without arcanist abilities or lunar spine abuse, or macros.
