(19) Silent Expansion

This guide aims to acquaint pre-expanse players with the broad strokes of changes implemented between Wynn versions 1.19 and 1.19.4.

It aims to explain in broad strokes how such changes are relevant to modern gameplay and provide enough information to get started with the mentioned features.

This is not a changelog, and this is also not a guide. For exact changes, see the changelogs linked on the wiki.

Map Expansion

Formerly known as the Road to Dern, the Silent Expanse is an area of the Wynn Province that was consumed by the Realm of Dern (an update slated for the future). In order to enter the Expanse and gain access to its content, you will have to go through the endgame quests A Journey Beyond and A Journey Further.

The Shaman Class

For the first time since release, this update added a completely new class, the Shaman. The theme of shaman is a squishy class with AOE spells and abilities relative to a totem. Notwithstanding abilities added in subsequent years, shaman’s base spells are Totem (spawns a physical totem object and throws it in front of your character), Haul (pulls oneself towards said totem), Aura (does damage within a certain radius of said totem), and Uproot (a ranged blast spell, unique for shaman in that it does not involve the Totem).

More information on this class will be outlined in subsequent sections due to an update a few years alter that overhauled classes to incorporate archetype variants.

Player Ghosts

Player ghosts are, as the name implies, ghosts of players on other worlds. They are enabled by default and are semitransparent.

Playerghosts are not fully interactable in that, although you can talk to them and they can see your actions, they can’t damage mobs on your server nor can they join you in quests or other local activities.

If you are experiencing lag, you can /toggle playerghosts none to hide all other players from other worlds. Conversely, if you are lonely, you can /toggle playerghosts all to do the opposite and display all players from all worlds.

Hunted Gamemode

A challenge gamemode that rewards players with +50% mob XP and 50% gathering XP, but at the cost of other players within a 10 level range of you being able to attack you via PVP.

Being killed by another player in hunted mode causes some of your gear to drop. (Req. A Hunter’s Calling completion)
