Trivia[]

  • 2 new developers were hired to work on this update
  • It took the team 8 tries[4] to succeed against the Nexus of Light's boss for the first time
  • One of the tasks for unlocking Tome slots used to be "Sell Mythic to Blacksmith" but was scrapped as "apparently not everyone owns a mythic."
  • Unlike the other logos for updates, where it says "War of the Realms" in Wynnic, instead, it says "The Realm of Light" in High Gavellian. There is also some text at the end of the 1.20 Gavel Reborn trailer which says "Save Him" in High Gavellian.
  • The sixth Hotfix of this update became one of the most infamous hotfixes in Wynncraft, as it made Strength and Dexterity multiplicative, which drastically increased damage outputs, as there also were no item changes to compensate for this originally.
    • The 1.20.3 update implemented this change with a lot of item changes later.
    • Later Hotfix #6s would also have a joke in them having a drastic change to some mechanics as a reference to the hotfix, while these actually were never implemented in game.
      • For 1.20.2 Hotfix #6, it said that now 200 Skill Points can be put in each skill instead of 100.
      • For 2.0 Hotfix #6, it said that the ability Vanish now had its cooldown increased from 5 seconds to 12 seconds, as this was based on the feedback of Assassin being weaker than other classes from the Spellbound Update.
