January 2014 Pirate101 Newsletter

Ahoy Pirates!

It's 2014 and that means Kingsisle released another newsletter for the month. :D This newsletter has a new Rogue's Gallery and a Sneak Peek! Let me start with the sneak peek since I'm excited about it and can't just not post about it until after Rogue's Gallery. This time Kingsisle released another image that looks like a treasure chest, one that you can lock and unlock? I can't think of it what it is but it does go along with the quest Completely Barmy! Here's an image of the sneak peek below..

I don't really know what this could mean but If you haven't, you should scroll through the Newsletters and look for another Barmy image in another Newsletter. This is making me curious. I'm starting to think its one huge side quest or something. This looks new and doesn't remind me anything of Wizard101 which is great. :D I love surprises. Anyways, this isn't the only thing I'm posting about, you can also check out the rest of the newsletter by clicking the image above AND watch the Rogue's Gallery ,featuring Old Scratch, below *I'll post once it becomes available on blogger*. Happy New Year, Pirates!

WizardPirate101

Hello Wizards!

Yesterday I had a chance to quest with my sister again through Azteca. We haven't really quest since November, I think before Thanksgiving, so yeah it's been awhile since we last quest. The last time we quest was before they applied the update to Avalon and Azteca where they lowered mobs health and pips so it was new when we started fighting them again. I believe it's a lot easier to get through the fights even if we're fighting the same schools (storm or ice). Thank you Kingsisle for applying that update, it really helps us a lot.

Yesterday my sister and I finished Mangrove Marsh. We had to go through a short dungeon there but it wasn't difficult since they lowered the mobs health and pips (this doesn't count for the bosses). It was pretty easy getting through that dungeon. I believe we had to get something in this dungeon to make it to the next area which we did after we were done with the dungeon. I almost died but luckily my sister had a healing spell! Thank you. :D After we were done with the dungeon it was time to go to the next area and join Pirate101 and start fighting monquistan monkeys, but first we needed to sail there on our pirate ships (kidding).

The last time I quest through this area the monkeys were casting Efreets the first round and it was difficult to defeat them. Thanks to the pip and health change we didn't have to do deal with an issue like that! I'm happy it didn't take so long defeating them. They had over 3,000 health, close to 4,000 I believe, before the update and now they have 2,800 and less pips which made it a lot easier to defeat them. I approve! Anyways, after we defeat the monkeys it was time to take their pirate ship and sail to Skull Island, Okay... I'm missing Pirate101! Lol :D. After we defeat the monkeys it was time to defeat sky snakes (another Pirate101 thing, seriously I need to play the game today)! We started to fight them but I had a lot of computer issues during the fight. I kept losing connection and having lag problems. I think this is happening because I said a few months ago I was planning on getting a new computer and my computer is mad about that. I'm sure by now you think I'm crazy (it is 2:00 A.M. my time) so I think it's time to stop typing and fall asleep again. Good night and see you around the Spiral!

Rest In Peace, Allan Ghostdust

I would like to tell the family of Allan Ghostdust that I'm very sorry for your loss. I am praying for you and I know God will help you through this tough time. I'm really speechless about this, no, I'm shocked. I am so sorry for your loss and I know I didn't know Allan well but I know he was a good person and I wish I could have met him in game. I want the family of Allan to know that the community cares about you and we are keeping you in our thoughts/ praying for you. I would also like to thank Kingsisle for making Allan's wish come true! You've made a huge wish of his come true and I'm sure he was happy you did. I love that Kingsisle cares and they even put his character in game and let him choose which dialog for Allan Ghostdust to have in the game. Allan, we will miss you. RIP!
