New Gear

Hello Wizards!

I'm sure you heard that Wizard101 released another pack, Shaman's Lore Pack, it looks like it has some pretty cool looking gear, pets and spells! I asked myself something though. Why game card packs? A few years ago Kingsisle had main level gears that you could farm a boss for and at the time it was epic gear. Now though, a lot has changed. I love the game card packs but I think Kingsisle should release the gear with bosses now.

Don't get me wrong, I love the new gear with all of the packs, they are very epic! This goes along with the world release rate though. They haven't released any good gear (from what I can see) with any of the new worlds. They release it with crowns packs though. I know crowns gear is always supposed to be better than the normal gear you farm from a boss but.. Its weird to see people who can't buy crowns and can only purchase members have level 58/ 60 gear on and you find out they're level 90. People who can purchase crowns can get all of the good gear. Since the gear in the crowns shop is really the only good gear you can get, it makes it unfair to the other players who only purchase memberships. I'm one of the people who doesn't have crowns at all times. Please take your time releasing worlds so you can have time to make some good gear for those who can only purchase a membership. This is a blog and yes, I do make posts like these sometimes, I have to. I won't buy this pack (25 crowns), so I'll have to see what I can do on my fire when reaching Azteca. Please, with the next world (hopefully not too soon), release some nice gear!

Goodbye Mason's Journal/ The Life of a Wizard

Hello UK Wizards!

I don't make much Wizard101 UK posts (Wizard101 US also), I really wanted to after reading Wizard101 UK community manager Emy Anemsalok's recent blog post though, kind of copying.. As you probably know Mason Swiftblade has decided to stop blogging. I can't believe this though because its crazy to see Mason (Tyler) stop blogging! His blog is another reason I really love continuing blogging so long. Its very sad to see that he has decided to stop blogging but I know this for sure, he has a great future ahead! I consider him one of my best friends and I'm glad to see he's planning on staying in the community for now. If he left then it would really be a sad post. I think the world needs more people like Mason, he's never made me upset and he's got to be the coolest person I've met online! Thanks Mason for everything you have done for the Wizard101 UK, Wizard101 US and Pirate101 community :) I'm glad I'm good friends with you and I'm sure a lot of other peeps reading this are too!

I always love reading your blog, and I will continue to even though you aren't blogging anymore! I'm going to read some of the old posts you have made and remember the old/good times! :{D
