Crown Items!- Test Realm

Woot!!!

Yeah, I am excited that they finally did add something that I wanted Kingsisle to add for a while! They finally added back some of the moon and star wizard gear! I think this really does make wizard101 seem like a wizard game. Here is a photo of my character and the stats on the gear..






To make the post short, since I don't really have much time to make a blog post, not only is this the only new gear, there is also one for each school! They cost 12500 crowns, I think its a great offer, they have very good stats, thank you KI! Here is a picture from the crowns shop..


Have fun in the Spiral, and I hope the items in the crowns shop make it to the live realm! I really do like them :)

Giving out your account information? No!

Hello Wizards!

My Note:
I want to ask all of you if you would believe, if a random person with no check, or not business card came up to you in real life and said you won a million dollars, and all you had to do was give a lot of personal information to them in order to get the "zero" million dollars. Would you? I am sure most will say no way! You should say no way if someone asks tells you they will give you 100,000 crowns if you give them your password. On Facebook there has been a lot of problems with people pretending to be Kingsisle, or work for Kingsisle, saying they would give you gifts if you give them your password. I didn't even add any of them because I know that Kingsisle wouldn't ask for the password when they already have your password in the memory of the game! Why would they need it again? Plus if Kingsisle did give out 100,000 crowns to everyone, there wouldn't even be a wizard101 anymore because they would run out of money to make the game. Wizard101 is a great game, and some people would say anything to try to steal an account of yours. If you want to play wizard101 on your legendary or transcended character, I suggest you to not give out your password. Not even if you are level 1.

Headmasters Note:


Hey Gang,

I wanted to drop you a quick note to warn you of a scam that has been going on recently. People have been going onto Facebook and into the game and pretending to be me -- or another member of the KI staff -- and offering to give out "free items" or "crowns" in exchange for providing them your user account and password information.

We have said this before, but it bears repeating:

Kingsisle Employees will NEVER ask you for your account information or password. NEVER. ( Why would we? We already have your account information!)


If someone is asking you for your account information, that individual is likely trying to trick you and steal your account. DO NOT GIVE IT TO THEM!

Kingsisle staff members have a game badge that says, "kingsisle support" -- If someone is claiming to work for Kingsisle and cannot or will not show you this badge, please report them immediately.

Some players have asked if I maintain a Facebook fan profile, I do, in fact, and I post there periodically. For those who are interested, it can be found here:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/J-Todd-Coleman/121012684593256

Any other profile page claiming to be me is also a fake/imposter, likely created to steal the accounts (and crowns) from unsuspecting players. My ONLY official fan page is the one listed above.

Thank you for your time and attention, for enjoying our game.

More information:
If you want to read it yourself its on the Ravenwood Bulletin for November 1st- https://www.wizard101.com/game/community/newsletter/november2011

Don't forget to look at the log in screen before you log completely in the game..

NEVER share your password- you will lose your Wizard forever!

My thoughts about the level 68 Spells

Hello Everyone,

Lately a lot of people were disappointed in some of level 68 spells. I think that some may be too over powered and some are a little bit rank 8 instead of rank 9. Here are my thoughts about the spells and what should have been added, if you want you can comment and tell me what you think should have been added. I am not trying to say the spells are bad, just saying what could help them :)

Sirens: 
There are really a lot of things to say about this spell. First, it is overpowered, way too tough. I would understand if it was against the boss, but this time I am going to mention Pvp. Imagine if you were in a ranked match in pvp and there was a pvp team, 3 storm wizards and 1 life wizard. Imagine if one of them used siren, and two of the other storm characters used a gargantuan tempest, and the life healed if the storms health was too low. The next round they would all hit with tempest again, and you would most likely lose the match if they had gargantuan on tempest and sirens. Sirens also has effects, which makes it even tougher than it already is. Not trying to be mean to storm wizards out there, but this spell may need a lower hit, about 815 with less effects, it would still be strong, but not as strong. The storm spell does 915 to all enemies, and -50 accuracy to all enemies, and stuns for one round..

Woolly Mammoth:
I really do like this spell, I don't think there could be anything to change about this spell. It does 800-900 damage on one enemy and stuns for one round. Kingsisle really did do a great job on this spell :) I can't wait to use it when it is released to the live realm!

Rain of Fire(Volcano):
I think this may be the best level 58 spell in the game. There are a lot of people complaining about it though, which I have no clue why, since it is a very strong spell! This spell does 300+ 800 over 3 rounds, to all enemies! This is way tougher than snow angel. I can't wait to get this spell on my fire :)

Gnomest: 
This card should have hit all enemies since life only has one card that does- forest lord- it does 780-880 and dispels the next 2 life spells. I think the gnome should have done 780-880 to all enemies, even if it didn't have a effect. Oh well, maybe next time life will get another strong attack to all enemies. I really do like the gnome spell though, it still does a lot more damage than centaur or forest lord :)

Chimera: 
I love this spell, this made me like balance a lot more than I do. It really is a strong spell, a good idea though, would be to add a dispel for life death and myth along with the attack, since balance doesn't get very much effects with their cards. Even if KI doesn't, it still is a great spell.

Katzenstein's Monster(Frankenstein):
This death spell should have had a hit all and convert. Scarecrow is the only card that does hit all enemies, along with life, they don't have much ht all spells. We never know though, maybe Kingsisle has great plans for life, death, and myth in the future. This card does 820 damage to one enemy, and converts half to heal you.

Basilisk: 
Very good new myth spell. It does a lot of damage to one enemy, and myth did need a spell like this. This card does 325 myth damage + 825 myth damage over 3 rounds, plus a stun. I was thinking myth should have had a hit all, but this spell does do a lot of damage to make myth stronger than it was before.

What a Change??


Like I said in the introduction of this blog post, I think that some of the spells, not all of them are rank 8 spells more than rank 9 spells. Some people may replace the Frankenstein with scarecrow or skeletal dragon instead of using that spell, I might sometimes. Chimera also seems like a rank 8 spell to me, since it doesn't have any effects when the other spells, other than myth and fire, do. The myth and the fire spells are rank 9 spells, they are very tough, and the storm.. well... its kind of like rank 11! When I say rank, I mean the pips you have to use in order to cast the spell. Storm really does seem like a rank 11 spell that is hidden in a rank 9 spell. Well maybe Kingsisle will change some of the spells before it hits live realm. I remember the a few of the spells changing when Celestia was released. We'll see :) If you want, tell me what you think about the new spells and what you would want to be changed in a comment below. See you all in the Spiral!
