Rye Bread Fruit - 12 Plants, Elder Harvests

I got 4 Golden Wheat Bread today (160 Pet XP total) from a total of 12 Elder Rye Bread Fruit Bushes. So, yes, you can still get Mega Snacks from the bushes, but its not an absolute of getting one :(

A Large Field of Large Plots


So I was trying to see how many Bread Bushes could fit in a Large Radius. The answer: 12. You can fit 12 Large Soils in a Large Radius!

Need 12 magic = 36 Energy
Cost of 1 Large = 15 Energy
Saved Energy = 21 Energy

So I'm going to enjoy my Breadbasket. Hope everyone else enjoys their own too.

Gardening with Large Spells



Gardening with Large Radius spells - as you can see from the picture above, you can use a Large Radius gardening spell to care for 36 or more small pots and/or Plots. Aim at the gnome in the center, and one Pest control spell will get rid of every pest, one large care spell will take care of all needs of that type.

For those interested in the math behind this: 36 Needs * 3 Energy = 108 Energy, while 1 Large Radius spell is only 15 Energy. Therefore, if you are caring for a minimum of 6+ plants with the same needs when you use a Large area spell, you are using LESS energy than if you use the small spell on each one.

Remember -
Small - 3 Energy (Covers 1 Plant)
Medium - 8 Energy (Covers 9 Small Pots)
Large - 15 Energy (Covers 36+ Small Pots)

Also, when gardening with Small or Medium, it is better to use Pots over Plots because of Energy Conservation. Enchanted Soil - Move plot = 4 Energy (1 Plow, 3 Enchant Soil), Regular Soil - Move Plot = 2 Energy (1 Plow, 1 Soil)

We should also thank the Chillanthropist (Kevin Battleblood) for his testing of distance for Likes. A Liked object can be 8.5 Small Pots away from the plant it is liked by.

Thursday, December 16, 2010

Making the most of your energy

Utilizing Pots, you can get 9 Small plants in an area for the Medium rank spells. This means you can spend 8 Energy taking care of 27 Energy worth of needs. You can also wipe out ALL pests with one spell, just by targeting the center plant. Make sure you are using your energy wisely!

Late Night Wizards Forum has Moved

The official forums for LNW has moved. We are no longer hosting on a free site, so that in the future we can qualify as a Wizard101 Official Fansite.

Late Night Wizards Forum

Thank you very much for your time and reading this message.

Editing Wizard101

Okay, again, changes have been made to the game, and while some are good, some I do not and cannot approve of.

The following changes have been brought to my attention this morning after maintenance:
1 - Pixies on plants no longer prevent harvesting. (Good change)
2 - Plants are showing up as likes properly (Good change)
3 - Plants are no longer Super Effected by 'Hidden Likes'. This means that their secret liked items will not force your plant to be able to be harvested every 3 Hours. (I can live with it)
4 - The Grotto Bosses Cuthalla (3+ Pip spells) and Eeglis (X-3 Pip spells) no longer cheat. (Hate this change!)
5 - You automatically remove your mount when entering the Gardening interface! (I can't understand the purpose of this)
6 - The Pylon Cuthalla's Tower Shields got boosted up to 90% again. (LOVE IT!)

Anyone else find any changes?

Logan's Status

As you can see from the pictures below, Logan Soulsinger has not only obtained Level 60, but has reached the Limit on Crafting and Gardening as well at the moment. Kudos to KingsIsle Entertainment for the wonderful game of Wizard101!

The Tower of Glitch


Okay, so we all know about the Knowledge Keeper's Tower in DragonSpyre's Grand Chasm. If you don't, it's the bottom floor, vault on the left at the end. Here's a picture of one of my glitches :)

Gardening and a Shocking Drop!

So over the course of the past, what is it... 3 days...? I've been gardening my heart out. Anyways, it's come to my attention that there are a bunch of items that help plants develop.

Weapon Rack (MB Recipe Felicia Worthington) - Honey Sickle
Regal Dragon Statue (Kraysys drop) - Snap Dragon
Potted Cattail (Oakheart drop) - Dandelion
Ball of Blue Yarn (MB mob drop) - Dandelion
Gong of the Oni (Death Oni drop) - Helephants, Trumpet Vine
Pet Cannon (CL Furniture Vendor) - Boom Shroom
Broken Stump (Unknown location, bought in Bazaar) - Boom Shroom, Desparagus
Pile of Sand (Krokosphinx Furniture Vendor) - Prickly Bear Cactus

These items increase the speed that a plant grows, and decrease their time between harvests.

Both Logan and Talon are now Intermediate Gardeners

---------------------------------------------------

Akuji is one of the most interesting bosses to fight. If you go into his house with 3+ wizards, you face 3 Akuji and 1 pig, not 1 Akuji and 3 pigs. He gave me 2 Red Banshees in a single battle drop!

Gardening in Live, Pest Report, Farming, and LNW News

So everyone who's a member of the Spiral and pays attention knows Gardening, the new System Upgrade for Wizard101, has gone Live. This is a very decent update, and if you keep your garden to a few plants, you can still train pets as well.

Gardening rewards are very nice, and for a very detailed and informed post on the basics of gardening, check out Paige's Page for all the information. She's a professional, so listen well to her.

--------------------------------------------------------


Beneficial Pest - Pixie (Rank 1 Pest)
Information Source - Arthur Wethersfield (KingsIsle Home Programmer), via W101Central
Pixie's are a beneficial pest. Plants like them and they make the plant grow a little faster. While the plant has pixies they can't get other less friendly pests. Pixies will eventually leave the plant.

Right now pixies aren't showing up as a like when you mouse over a plant but that's a bug of the programming kind.

Arthur
---------------------------------------------------------

Now back to Farming of the standard MMO kind (Battling the same enemy type over, and over, and over again)! Good news to report for crafters: FISHBOTS DROP SANDSTONE AND SUNSTONE! Also, for those interested in Gardening, I've got news as well. King Parsley and Pink Dandelion Crowns Seeds are available as drops in the Labyrinth, Silver Trumpet Vine Crowns Seeds are dropped in Celestia by Fishbot mobs and bosses.

Of course the Latest news for Late Night Wizards: The Forum is up and Operational!

Okay, so a bunch of people have issues with the Stormriven Cheating bosses at the Pylons. Here's a quick rundown of which pylon summons which.

His Trick(s): When you heal, if there are 2 open spots, he gets 2 Fishbot buddies
Any way around it? Spritely pets don't trigger him

Health: 5,230
School: Storm
His Trick(s): Gets 1 Tower Shield whenever a Charm/Ward is played, Wraiths on Low Level non Charm/Wards, Heals for 5,000 when hit with X-Pip and Wand Damage, Orthrus when someone Polymorphs, replaces Damage bubbles (other than ones he casts) with Doom and Gloom

Gardening, Pets, Power Leveling Issues, and an Email sent to KI

Well, today I made it to Journeyman Gardener (Rank 6). I got a Frozen Fly Trap (rank 6) from my Fly Trap plant, and planted it. My Happy Holidaisies became Mature and look so cute. Gardening is fun, but I'll have to have a much smaller garden when Gardening comes Live.

------------------------------------------------------

Well, the results of yesterday's hatching are in. Both Talon and I got Tempest pets. Thank you Audi for the Wraith from when the Dorm Furniture glitch was around. I truly appreciate it. It allowed us to get Temepsts. Next thing on the plan: Hatch 1 Tempest with 1 Frostcaller. Frostcaller is already Adult, so Talon is raising Tempest to be an adult. Should be 9 more games of the Maze tomorrow morning and she'll be ready.

------------------------------------------------------

Well, I tried to Power Level my life girl in the Solarium today, only to notice that KingsIsle, in an attempt to block this sort of thing from happening, has the XP limit set to the max XP for the current level of the Wizard so as to discourage this sort of activity. It happened in the Lunarium as well, so I'm sure it's not just a coincidence. Perhaps we will see what happens after tonight's maintenance.

------------------------------------------------------

Today I filed a request with KingsIsle's Contact Us system on Wizard101.com. Below is the message I sent (will post their response when I receive it in another update):

Summary: Wing Drops on High Level Bosses Update

Wings on Bosses
It seems many young Wizards are diligently looking for the new Winged Mounts on the high level bosses of the Spiral.

We've just discovered that they're not dropping at a high enough rate, and we will be adjusting this rate in the future.

Until then, give the poor bosses a break and continue with your adventures in the Spiral. We will let you know when the drop rate has been reset.

Farming, Late Night Wizards, and Leadership

Well today was an interesting day. I farmed Calypso some, hatched 2 failures in the Hatchery, and then encountered an Account Scammer who was on a Wizard named Logan Frost, offering Cheats to get to Level 60! Needless to say, I reported him (once on each account). After that, I went off to farm some more, this time at Astraeus. Didn't get anything good, so after a while of doing what seemed like nothing (sitting in the commons, reporting people for swearing around filter, and then watching them yell at each other for 'reporting' each other when neither did (Member of the Watch badge was equipped)), I ported to my friends the Stormriders on their Myth and Balance pair. I helped them through Astraeus, Ptolemos, and Mithraya, finishing Celestia for them. I then invited them to join Late Night Wizards, since they love playing Late at night.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Some information on Late Night Wizards:
Late Night Wizards Home Page: www.latenightwizard.com
Late Night Wizards Face Book: www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=184572969117
-------------------------------------------------------------
Late Night Wizards was founded by Jennifer Pixieblood, and is a group for wizards who play Wizard101 late at night. For over a year she led the group, even founded the new home site for it. After some issues with Wizard101 Central (of which I'm not privy to the details), the group was removed from Central.

Of course, seeing them as the underdog, I decided to keep faith with the Late Night Wizards. Today, Jennifer stepped down as Leader and handed the reins over to Keira Unicornwhisper. Good luck, Keira!

Grotto Reagent Map

Updated to show Kelp and Shell Spawn points


As you can see, there is a bunch of stuff you can pick up along the way. eventually, I may update to add Wooden and Silver chests, but that may be asking too much :)

December 2nd - Idiocy and Test Realm updates

Okay, we've all had issues with noobs and we all have things that irk us. Well, today, I encountered an Epic Noob, a Legendary Pyromancer who refused to stop casting blades, shields, and traps on Cuthalla, despite seeing that it made Cuthalla keep shielding. He also was swearing up a storm... I reported his foul language and when the battle was over, my friend and I changed realms.

Anyways, Talon got some great Level 58 No Trade / No Auction Celestian Stat shoes from Calypso, and she gave Logan a Starfish. That's about it for farming news today.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now onto the Test Realm. Some big changes occurred on Test Realm today:
1) Unbalance has returned. See Mildred Farseer to learn the Balance Dispel.
2) Energy. Pet Energy has now become Energy. Level 1 will start with 40 Energy and gain 1 Energy every Even Level. This means at Legendary (Level 60) you will have 70 Energy. With the Beastmaster gear you have 88 Energy. It takes almost 15 hours to fill 88 energy. I think it's actually 14 hours 40 minutes.
3) Crowns Seeds are no longer all Rank 1+. You can now buy these Seeds in the Housing section of the Crowns Shop for Gold and Crowns
4) Elder Harvests don't make your other plants disappear anymore! At least, they didn't for me anyways.
5) Inspect Plant is no longer needed, as it is always active as long as you have the Gardening Interface open, and it is now MORE DETAILED.

Anyways, see you all in the Spiral later. It's late, and I'm getting tired.

Activities of December 1st

Nothing too spectacular occurred today. I helped some friends (pulled Edward's rump out of the fire a couple times), won some battles, farmed some plants... Baby carrots are so cute...

Oh, and I proved to Nesogra that Empowerment Aura stacks. Talon hit 57 somewhere along the road today.

There's not much going down right now, so I'm keeping it short and simple. Peace.
