My thoughts on Wizard101's Aquila

Hello Wizards!

You don't have to worry. This is far from a rant post! Its actually a thank you post to Kingsisle. I'm very glad Kingsisle released a fun world that most wizards can participate in and there's no need to worry about leveling quickly to be on time for the next level cap world. I was expecting this world to have a new level cap but it doesn't. It does have so many things I've been wanting for so long! I've been playing on the test realm for more than 4 hours (longest I've played on the test realm since Zafaria), I couldn't believe all of the new great things they've released. New Gear, Minions for all schools, pets, epicness. We also get to farm a boss in Dragonspyre for new spells! I'm glad Kingsisle added this world because it gives them more time to work on the next level cap (90-100). This update also gives us time to farm for gold, new epic gear/weapons, pets, and new spells. I have to say I love everything single thing about Wizard101's Aquila and I don't see one problem with it. It looks like after so many years all of my, STOP KI, you're releasing the worlds way too fast to anyone to level, is behind me and I'm thinking of the bright future. I wasn't really trying to be rude, I just thought the 6 month time release was way too fast. This time KI waited about 8-9 months to release Aquila and its a side world? I think its turning out to be like old times, which is great! I can't wait until this world is released to the live game. If anyone complains, they are just upset that KI is too epic to release a world every second. :P They should take their time, the more time they take.. the more polished their next update will be. Okay... Well, that's my thoughts on Aquila. I'll talk more about this new world once its released to the live game. :D See ya'll around the Spiral.

Best Dressed Contest (Pirate101)

Ahoy Pirates,

I've been thinking so much about the perfect contest. Before now, I was thinking of a raffle.. scratched that out, then favorite place in the spiral.. also scratched that out. I decided to have a Best Dressed Contest that everyone can participate in! This won't be a difficult contest at all since I love all of the gear on the game. I think it'll be a fun contest for everyone. :D

New Wizard101 Content (Test Realm)

Hello Wizards!

As you may have heard, Kingsisle released another new area/world on the test realm. There's not a new level cap just yet (which is great- can't wait to talk about this).. This new world comes with Gods such as Zeus! I got to fight him today. Now before I give out anymore detail.. If you would like to access the test realm so you can test out the new features that are planned to be released to the test realm.. Make sure you have bought a $10 worth of crowns or a Membership in the past 30 days so you can have access to the Wizard101 Test Realm. Once you log onto the test realm if you're level 30 or higher, speak to Cyrus Drake in the Myth Classroom for a new quest called "Quest For Glory". There are three dungeons you can participate in and they are pretty long. You'll get to participate and win nice new awards (such as wands), at levels 30+, 70+ and 90+.  Not only are there dungeons... they are also new minions for wizards higher than level 75. You can check out the test realm updates notes of the new minions and all of the other great updates by clicking on the image to the right!
