Wizard 101 Update SOON!

UPCOMING WIZARD101 EXPANSIONS INCLUDE SEVENTH WORLD AND NEW PET CAPABILITIES
New world, advanced pet system and level cap increase included in two Wizard101 content updates

PLANO, TEXAS (March 24, 2010) – KingsIsle Entertainment, creators of the award-winning massively multiplayer online game (MMO) Wizard101 is proud to announce details on two of the major content updates for 2010. An extensive Advanced Pet system is launching this spring and the world of Celestia is launching late summer. In addition to all new quests the Celestia expansion will also include an increased level cap and new secondary schools of magic.

Coming this spring, players will have the opportunity to hatch customized pets from millions of potential combinations. The Advanced Pet system will bring a new dimension of interaction within Wizard101 as players can race their pets in the expansive Pet Derby, participate in new pet-themed minigames, feed and train them, and use them as allies in magic duels. Players will be able to level their pets from an egg to ancient beings with incredible powers.

The new world of Celestia is inspired by Atlantis, and young Wizards will encounter new adventures and quests deep under the sea. Celestia also increases the level cap in Wizard101 from level 50 up to level 60, as well as introducing three new secondary schools of magic. Celestia will officially open in late summer. Starting in June players can undertake new quests to discover the secrets of this new world and begin to unlock the story behind Celestia.

“2010 is shaping up to be an incredible year for the students of Ravenwood School of Magic,” said J. Todd Coleman, Vice President and Creative Director for KingsIsle Entertainment. “Whether exploring the underwater kingdom of Celestia, or hatching and training pets to participate in the Pet Derby, every player–from the newest apprentice to the returning grandmaster–will find something compelling, engaging and fun.”

In Wizard101, kids and families enter the magical world of Wizard City as student Wizards setting out to hone their Wizard skills, cast spells and summon powerful creatures to fight evil forces. The characters and worlds of Wizard101 are influenced by literature, history and pop culture, giving the game a depth and quality appreciated by families and players of all ages.

Wizard101 can be downloaded at www.Wizard101.com and offers free game play for as long as players choose. Players seeking access to premium areas and items may purchase pre-paid cards in participating stores or purchase a subscription or Crowns online. New worlds, activities, pets and Wizard clothing are periodically added to the game, creating an ever-changing world with new things to see and do.

Here's a code for the fastest wizard. (the rest of you will be out of luck)

Increasing Winged Mount Boss Drops

Quoting from a list of coming bug fixes on Wizard101.com...
"Wing Mounts on Bosses: it seems many young Wizards are diligently looking for the new Winged Mounts on the high level bosses of the Spiral.

We've just discovered that they're not dropping at a high enough rate, and we will be adjusting this rate in the future.

Until then, give the poor bosses a break and continue with your adventures in the Spiral. We will let you know when the drop rate has been reset."

Sounds like farming might pick up drammatically if this fix is made!

A code for the quickest wiz... It will only work for the first one to try it. Let me know what you get.

Knowledge Keepers Tower in Tower Archives

There's an interesting little (and I do mean little) tower in the Tower Archives. It's at the very end on the left. You won't see lights but you can enter anyway.

On the second floor my friends and I went on a little tourist trip and got into the treasure vault. Not only that we were able to peek through walls and see the other floors of the tower.

Check out the images below.

Taunting Malistaire With Wizard City Spells

In this video, my friends and I set up Malistaire for the ultimate humiliation... Death by the Imp spell.

How many times over would this have killed him?



For the fastest wizard here's a code to enjoy: P747A-2L4Y9-24E9X-2L665

Using XP Boost Elixirs

There is a crown item for sale called an XP boost elixir. You can get them by crows or by getting a score of about 500,000 on wizard blox.

If you do happen to try one of these, here is my advice.

Use this boost in situations where you are going to turn in a lot of quests quickly. The XP boost lasts only for 10 minutes so this means in most Dragonspyre quests you may only turn in 2 quests with the boost actually acive. So try to maximize the time you have the elixir operational. Take it just before turning in a big quest and then go as fast as you can.

Good places to use this would probably be Crimson Fields in Mooshu, maybe some instances in Krock.

Valerian

Here's another code for the quickest wizards. Only one wizard can redeem it. Let me know what you got.
