http://ift.tt/2tOxtkp



Kicking off the official start of summer, KingsIsle left us with quite the surprise.. another update has hit the Wizard101 Test Realm! Come take a look what’s in the Summer Update!

NOTE: For a full list of changes – go HERE.

PvP Changes

To start things off – we have some PvP Changes! There are now daily assignments specifically for PvP – which give tickets and gold, and every 5th day – you will get a chest, containing new item and old favorites (including lore spells potentially!)

Additionally – to solve with the boosting problem, users will no longer face the same opponent for a certain amount of time after battling them!

PVP ONLY – There is now a dispel shield! After using a dispel, users will now get a stun block shield representing a dispel block! Note: If you use a spell such as Elemental Defuse (a spell that leaves more than one dispel), only one dispel shield will be put on you.

Finally, a new tournament mode – similar to Pirate101’s PvP system! Player 1 will take a turn, and then Player 2 takes theirs, eliminating the “second turn” issue. As a result of all these changes, a new age of PvP will be brought forth – welcome the 4th Age!

Chat Changes

The biggest section of changes, the menu chat system has gotten a whole revamp in the Wizard101 Test Realm – with many more fun and strategic phrases added! You also now have a favorites option – where you can save 20 of your favorite phrases!

There are also now emojis in-game! Click the round face on the right side of the chat window to bring up the window for these emojis. All players (even muted) can use these, and there a wide range of them, with the plan to add even more in the future!

Finally – there are now chat channels including a new Friend one! In this one, you can invite all your friends into it, and have your own group chat (similar to guild chats in other games). To invite friends, click on a friend’s name in your friend’s list, and then click the invite to friend chat button – next to your friend’s portrait in your friends list). Also, you can choose whether your friend channel is public (friends can invite their friends) or private (only people you have added can join!).

Just as a little note – there are a bunch of specific notes related to the various parts of these chat changes (how friend channels get reset after ever weekly maintenance, which one you log into when you get on, etc. etc.) so make sure to read the patch notes for a full run-down on that.

Monstrology

3 new types of monstrology are ready for eager monster hunters to gain! You can find Burke in Colossus Boulevard, Wysteria, and Grizzleheim to gain spells to hunt Treants, Pigs, and Gobblers!

Several non-repeatable creatures were removed from the tome – listed as followed:

  • Death Incarnate
  • Ghastly Spectre
  • Osseus Nightreaver
  • Eke Chuah
  • Tolkemec
  • Crypt Watchguard
  • Wanadi Black Sky

Tutorial Tip Log

A new tutorial tip log is available – located on the right side of your quest log, it simply keeps a log of all the tutorial tips for you to go back on if you were needing to do so! The categories are as followed:

  • Warning—Tips that warn the player (low mana is one example they used)
  • Quest—Tips that are related to quests.
  • School—Tips that are related to spell or pet school quests.
  • Tutorial—Tips that explain how something is used.

Avalon Fishing

Fishing has expanded into the land of mythical dragons and goblins – Avalon! New fish and new quests await all thee interested – and even a new spell!

And as always – many more changes with this test realm, bug fixes, and smaller changes. For a full list of changes, make sure to read the full list of patch notes, link is at the top of the article!
