Wizard101 Test Realm is Online
The Fall Update is here! Join us in testing the new features. If you want to see all the teaser images and what we expected, read New World Predictions.
Bugs
If you find an error or notice anything not working correctly, click the bug in the top right corner of your screen and submit a bug report. Bug reports are not limited to the things they mention to test. Report on any issues you have in the game. This is a very important step and the main reason test realm opens to us. The game developers want to know what works and what doesn’t work. Tell them, and tell them often.
Things to test
Four Brand New Dungeons
New challenges await you, throughout the Spiral! Four new dungeons are available to explore, full of mystery, exciting puzzles and epic rewards.
Wizards of Level 25 or higher should visit Sergeant Talbot in the Oasis of Krokotopia to help him find a missing member of an expedition, who was lost while on a mission to Mooshu.
Wizards of Level 40 or higher need to visit Private Kinchley in the Cathedral of Regent’s Square in Marleybone. The Spiral’s greatest detective, Sherlock Bones, needs your help to investigate a crisis in Barkingham Palace!
Wizards of Level 60 or higher will need to speak to Alhazred in the Balance Classroom at the Krokosphinx to assist with the delivery of a mysterious (and possibly dangerous) package.
The greatest of challenges await Wizards of Level 100. Dworgyn, in Nightside of Wizard City, will guide you in accepting the challenge of a great (and familiar) foe within Castle Darkmoor!
Duelist101 will be bringing dungeon guides and videos, as well as what you can get from the dungeons, as soon as we can!
New Shadow Enhanced Spells
KI hasn’t left us out in the cold. The new update comes with 7 brand new spells, one for each school. Though these spells may be a little different. Shadow Magic makes a surprising and welcome return in the form of Shadow-Enhanced spells. These new spells are very powerful, and require both regular and Shadow pips to cast. Check out our coverage here.
New Equipment Sets
Changing our gear just got easier! We now have a button at the bottom of our in our backpack window to make sets of gear. Pop one on for PvP, Energy, Fishing, or Questing! Make your favorite party costumes too! The shortcut keys Ctrl + 1 through 9 help us navigate through the sets.
We are limited to nine Equipment sets at this time. We can remove sets from our list at any time. Be careful! if you delete a piece of equipment, it will no longer be a part of your set since it is no longer in you backpack.
Exclusive Emotes and larger friends lists for Members
Being a Wizard101 member has always had it’s perks. Now we have more! Our friends limit increases from 120 to 150. That is 30 more friends we can have! Thank you Wizard101!
New Emotes have been added exclusively for Wizard101 members. There are going to be additional limited-time surprise benefits for members. We will update this post with more as we know more.
Fishing Updates
The Angler’s Tome will now tell you the total number of fish that you have caught! There is a new badge for catching 2500 total fish. We will let you know what it is as soon as we know.
New FISH! We are still working on their names and locations. We will update here when we know. We will also add them to the Fish Location Guide.
Silver Chests Receive a New Game
Head into Silver Chests to find a new game created by Mr. Smith as reported here in his ‘Ode to Shock-a-Lock.’ Reportedly the prizes remain the same. The Catch a Key mini game will be in all of the Silver Chests during Test Realm to be sure everyone gets a chance to test it out. Fun!
Combat Idle
No longer are the days of waiting for opponents to time out after a reasonable amount of time! Idle players, those who do not choose to cast a spell or pass in battle for two rounds, will now have be skipped by the 30 second countdown timer. Better pay attention! Opponents won’t be able to walk away during your match and leave you there suffering through the timer.
Quest, Spell, and Housing updates
Several quests were tweaked to do what is intended. It seems to be the usual checks for consistency and main quest line decline inability. Nothing major.
A few spells received needed updates. Here are the major changes:
- Lord of Night will attack for 440 Health Drain and apply -25% to the next Incoming Heal.
- Brimstone Revenant will attack for 470 Fire Damage and apply a +25% Fire Trap.
- Handsome Fomori will attack for 450 – 530 Ice Damage and apply -25% Accuracy.
- Luminous Weaver will attack for 370 Life Damage and apply -25% Weakness.
- Keeper of Sacred Flame will attack for 400 Myth Damage and apply +25% Myth Trap.
- Catalan will attack for 700 Storm damage and apply -25% Accuracy.
Be on the lookout for new wallpaper and floor patterns throughout the spiral! Music Players, Aquariums and Mannequins now display the item playing/being shown. Housing signs have some new phrases, be sure to check them out! Attic items will now be grouped if we have multiples. We can also move them in the group if we want. For a few other things that have been going wrong, houskeeping tweaks are mentioned in the updates notes if you want to test them out.
We will add more as we learn more!! Expect many changes to this post over the next few days.
How does Test Realm work?
If you haven’t been in test realm before, follow the instructions near the end of the Test Realm notes (click button below.) Wizard101 Test Realm is limited to members and crowns users with recent transactions. Test realm is copied from live realm. It is completely separate from your live characters. What you do in Test Realm will NOT effect your wizards in live realm. The crowns you spend in test realm will not effect live realm.
Happy Testing!!
