Ugh, the annoyances... Preventing Registrations from Free Accounts - How egregiously Conceited of them. I'm sorry, but that's gathering quite a bit of personal information with the requirement of an ISP email...

The Sultan's Gear

A 5 + 0 + 5 = 10% All Accuracy
D 0 + 10 + 10 = 20% All Damage

Oddball Glitch...

Okay, this morning, I hatched my Forest Lord with a random Judgement pet. I got a Jade Egg, and when I moused over it, it showed Ominous Scarecrow, which means it will be a Crop Watcher pet... This hatch was supposed to result in Astral Judge with 1 'Mighty Judgement' Card at Baby.

Complete L58 Pet Defaults

Test Realm Report

I just acquired 1 'Charm of the Black Pearl' from Harek the Lean. This is a Crafted Necklace that contains the new Death Level 35 spell 'Dark Pact'.

Will have much more to report in the coming days :)

DARK PACT is much more Viable than I had originally given this Balance Blade credit for! Dark Pact can be used by a death wizard to give an ALLY the 30% boost, not just themselves. the Amulet gives a 35% balance blade boost!

NEW FANSITE FOUND

I have found a new Fansite for Wizard101, or at least a Fansite in Construstion... What can be behind the gateway of: http://www.w101pets.com/

A Rock worth Keeping?

This 5th Generation Pet Rock / Sea Dragon hybrid has obtained Pierce Train and Spritely!

Test Realm shows:



So, yeah, I guess it's a Rock worth keeping :)

UPDATE! Amulets will be WT Drop not CL Drop

Professor Greyrose has updated the post. They will be WINTERTUSK DROPS, not CELESTIA DROPS!

Power Pip Amulets = CL DROPS

Alright, WAY TO GO KINGSISLE! WOO-HOO!!! CL Bosses, Fear the Reapers!

Mega Snacks = WT Mega Drops!

OMG! ABSOLUTE WOOTNESS! They are finally taking the time to add Mega Snacks as drops other than from gardening! I cannot wait for Wintertusk ^_^

April Producer's Letter

Here's the Producer's Letter from Wizard101's Main Site!

My dear Wizards,

So the cat’s out of the bag! Our next release will include a new area called Wintertusk, a place that completes the story begun in Grizzleheim. You knew there had to be more coming, right? We can’t just leave things on a cliffhanger like that. There will be wolves, ravens, and bears, as you'd expect, but your character will encounter some other epic bad guys too. You won’t be alone, though: in Wintertusk your Wizard will finally meet Grandmother Raven. She should be a great aid to you as your character encounters mysteries and challenges across the Spiral.

That’s not all though! We’re also proud to announce that we’re going to be releasing something hugely requested by the Wizard101 community: high level quest pets! You may have wondered why we asked about pets on Feedback Friday a while ago... that’s the reason! We’re fired up for Wizards to discover new companions to aid you in your journeys throughout the Spiral. They won’t be easy to obtain… but the spoils will be worth the effort!

Another exciting new feature is new and upgraded spells. With Celestia, we gave you some visually super cool epic spells, and now we’re adding more toys for your arsenal. With our new content, we allow your Wizard's other spells to gain in power as well. Your Wizard will be able to “upgrade” one existing spell and will get something new. Your Wizard must be level 58 to get these quests. It won’t be as easy as walking up to a trainer, but you should find that your time obtaining them has been well spent.

With many of the new additions to the game this update, we want to make sure Wizards already at Legendary status have a meaningful way to increase their powers. Each school will have their own, but here are some examples. Balance Wizards, we found some ancient and powerful magic to provide you a new, shiny, and more powerful healing over time spell! Storm Wizards, you’ll find some awesome damage at your disposal, but with great capability comes great danger. Speaking of such things, you’ll also find a new area with the toughest combat yet, but the spoils will most certainly befit the difficulty. These challenges will be presented to our most powerful Wizards. If you fall into that category, let me just say… I hope you’re up for the challenge!

Have you wondered what became of Crab Alley? What happened after the Crab folk went on tour with Selena Gomez? You won’t have to wait too long to find out, get ready to explore our newly expanded Crab Alley! It will be right up your alley if your Wizard is around level 10-15.

There is so much more I just can’t talk about yet! We have a huge list of changes coming out with this next release, and there’s a lot more to come out in the months to come. My next letter should be full of juicy gossip! I’m burning with excitement about the features in this update, and since a lot of the features are hot topics on the message boards, I think you'll feel the heat of excitement as well!

Hmmm... A new shiny Heal over Time spell... maybe heal all?

The new Storm Spell has 3 different possibilities:
1 - Immolate-Like storm spell
2 - Heavy storm damage, then a Feint-like trap on self
3 - Heavy storm damage, then Stun self

I'm wondering if these are the UPGRADED spells, or if we can choose what spell of ours to upgrade... This update will be EPIC.

Seriously? A Pet Rock?

Seriously, that's the 'Something Special'?

*Sigh* waste of a timer...

Mega Mount Givaway Week!

KingsIsle is giving away a grand total of 225 mounts through 15 Fansites over the course of the next 7 days. KingsIsle Entertainment is a wonderful company, but this makes me nervous as to what the 'Special' surprise is going to be... I really hope it isn't Official Mount Racing. If we can now compete in Mounted Duels, that's one thing, and if mounts can be trained like pets, that's another... But really, we don't need more PVP options at the moment.

Something Special - BriskBreeze Pt 2?

Culpepper makes a good point: Something Terrible is coming, but how can something be COMING, when everything in the Spiral already 'Exists' just needs to be revealed?

Perhaps we've found information regarding the release of the long awaited (by me and my friends anyways) Second tower of the Grandmaster's Threat storyline.
