The First KingsIsle Livestream

KingsIsle had their very first Livestream on Twitch. Don't worry if you missed it, you can watch the recorded version at: http://www.twitch.tv/kingsisleentertainment/b/569603589

The Community Managers of Wizard101 and Pirate101, Leala the current Lydia Greyrose and Tom aka Friendly Necro aka One Eyed Jack, has come and talked to us all about the wonderful game of Wizard101.

They mostly talked about the latest updates to the Wizard101 game. The fishing feature, birthday event, the Arcane Builder's Bundle and other updates that we pretty much already know about. Leala even worked on her Arcane house while livestreaming. Then they showed beautiful pictures of Arcane Houses that people have created at the end of the stream.

They also gave away Arcane Builder's Bundles for lucky winners who sent in questions that they picked to answer. Not only that, they gave away 2,000 random tapestries to lucky wizards who redeemed a code.

While they were talking, us #Twizards decided to gather in the Commons, Scarecrow realm and celebrate the livestream event! It was so much fun!

Now, I noticed a few things about the stream that would be considered brand new information. First "time lords" was mentioned at the beginning of the stream. That made me think about the telegraph booths that we saw in the Test Realm. Also, time lord is a Doctor Who reference. 

And clearly the telegraph booth as well as The Professor is a Doctor Who reference in-game. So if you connect the two... What does this mean for Wizard101? Mysteries upon mysteries. We don't know.. YET! Are they hinting that soon we will find out why those telegraph booths showed up in Test Realm? 

Then at the end of the stream, they mentioned that tomorrow we will have a Lost Pages quest coming. If you forget what Lost Pages quest are, they are a side quest that you have to complete that was spread over a few worlds. You were able to earn a badge and if lucky, receive a gear piece from the Dragon's Hoard pack which is retired.

Not only that, that there will be several surprises coming in October! Are the telegraph booth mystery reveal be one of the surprises for October? But, they said several surprises. So what else do you think they will reveal? Maybe new Halloween fish, new Halloween pack, new Halloween pets? Who knows? But there's one thing we know that's for sure... October is gonna be fun!

Crafting Quests For The Holidays!

Crafting Quests For The Holidays!

I was thinking about the holidays. The only thing I never am satisfied with is the holiday quests. The Halloween Towers were fun until you did it enough that it became boring. Not only that, you are now are at a level high enough that they are literally a breeze to go through. Not only that the Nosferabbit quest and dungeon was sadly brief. For Level 90s, it took us five minutes to finish. Not only that, it didn't even drop anything great. It left people going, "Well, then what's the point?"

So, I've been thinking what they should do for the holiday time that would actually keep us on our toes. I realized that they should add crafting quests for holiday time! It would be easy to add and set up. And it can apply to ALL character levels.

First of all, there would be holiday themed reagents only dropped during the holidays like Candy Cane reagents, Holly reagents, Pine Cone reagents. Heck you can be incredibly creative. With those cool holiday reagents, you get to craft holiday themed items that's only available during the holiday time. You can craft holiday items like maybe different kinds of Christmas Trees, Wreaths, Fireplaces, Snowglobes, Candy Cane fences. Again, you can be quite creative with this. You can even have a Gingerbread house maybe!

But the most important thing of all, you get holiday themed crafting quests that's only available during the holidays. Every year, the goal of quest is new and different, so they aren't the same every year, which would be a refreshing change. Every year they can add new and unique reagents. One year you can get Candy Cane, Holly, Pine Cone reagents, the next year you could get Ornament, Snowflake, Reindeer Fur reagents. If you do enough new reagents every year, you can eventually recycle them. For instance, in four years, you can start again with Candy Cane, Holly, Pine Cone reagents.

To get them, of course you would have to farm for those special cool reagents to craft those cool holiday items to be able to turn them in for the holiday quest. Every year, Wizard101 should add new crafting quests with unique new goals. One year, you have to make this item. Next year, you have to make ANOTHER item. And of course, in the end you KEEP the item.

Not only that, why not add holiday crafting tables like the way they add holiday vendors. There's a special crafting table that is only available at holidays in Wizard City somewhere where you can craft holiday themed furniture and houses. Maybe a holiday crafting shop in one of the empty unused shops in Shopping District. And of course, there should be an unique Crafting Holiday Vendor NPC that gives quests every year, for every holiday. It could be the same person which will make it easier. It should be someone like Zeke who needs help during the holidays. This way we can craft things and help them or something. This way, this person can show up for every holiday without creating multiple NPCs.

It would be great to be able to do new quests every year for holidays that always changes and it's certainly easier to set up than a dungeon that high level chars can beat in ten minutes. More bang for the buck really. I would love to do this kind of thing for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine's Day, St Patrick's, July 4th. Each holiday would have its own unique reagent. I mean Candy Cane reagent would be for Christmas only while Firework reagents would be for July 4th, same goes for the holiday furniture and houses. They would remain unique for the holidays.

I really hope that Wizard101 and eventually Pirate101 will use this idea since I honestly think that it would be helpful and even more, it's FUN!!! Even thinking about this, makes my heart pound in excitement. This would certainly keep us busy during the holidays!

Pirate101 Egg Looks: Room For Improvements

So, we've been working on collecting pets in Pirate101 and you receive eggs that goes with each pet or type. But I have been playing Dragons of Berk that's based off "How To Train Your Dragon" movie. It's a great little game I've been enjoying. And it's perfect for someone like me who honestly adores dragons.

Now, collecting dragons on Dragons of Berk made me notice something. Dragons of Berk has amazing beautiful egg looks for each of their dragons. This made me think of Pirate101's eggs. I think there's room for major improvement. I know some people might say that it's not important. But if you can improve something, you should, even though it's not that important. 

Imagine this: You hatch for a pet and suddenly sees an AMAZING egg. Like one of the Dragons of Berk's eggs, the excitement will be even more. Because if the egg is THAT cool, the pet must be COOLER!

Pirate101's eggs seem a bit too simple. They all are the same shape. And even some of the eggs simply have stripes or spots. I would love to see more out of box eggs like the Dragons of Berk's below. Since Pirate101 has better graphics, they should push the envelope in creating amazing pets and especially eggs.
