After defeating Baron Mordecai in one of the Halloween quests, 2 additional monsters appeared! I was left on my Chestnut Pony mount in the middle of the circle while my friends (Edward IceSpear & Esmee UnicornThief) transformed into a Fire Elf & a Krokomummy! I recorded the strange perspective, enjoy.
Just in from Professor Greyrose regarding tonight’s maintenance. Yay, I get to see my Stone Fireplace again! Right now my candles are floating in midair. =)
Wizard101 the game will be offline from 3am to approximately 4am on Tuesday July 14th.
This downtime is necessary to address the issues listed below:
* Wandering creatures in Dragonspyre will no longer gain Power Pips naturally, however the bosses of the Spiral still maintain this ability.
* Sgt Skullsplitter will be taught another lesson by Merle Ambrose and will stop casting interrupts on players.
* Baby Drakes will once again appear for the Break An Egg quest.
* Scarl Soomhowler will appear more frequently for the Clean Them Out Quest.
* Players will get a message after they complete Trade Voyage to seek out Merle Ambrose and gain access to Grizzleheim after level 20.
* Scarsnout will now properly resist Myth spells and be weak to Storm spells.
* Reagents in your Reagent section of your backpack will now be alphabetized.
* The creatures in Raven Fortress will be less aggressive and won’t pull Wizards into combat as easily.
* Krokotopian Scarabs can properly be bought and sold from the Bazaar
* Yardbird Quest goals will be more clearly defined.
* Veil of Verdancy will no longer be bright pink and can now be dyed.
* Hood of Ashes will now have a level 45 requirement.
* Amaranthine Staff will no longer be eligible to sell at the Bazaar.
The following house items will now work properly in your house:
* Dogfish Statue
* Dragon Wall Bust
* Dragonwing Bust
* Stone Fireplace
* Brick Fireplace
* Soda Barrels
* Tiny Arched Door
If you do not see them where you placed them before tonight, you may need to go to your attic and pick all items up in the house for it to appear. We apologize for this slight inconvenience, but it may be the only way to ensure you can retrieve the item.
* The Eye will once again be an item players can interact with for the Eye of Truth quest.
* Tall Wooden Shelf & Rough Wooden Shelf can now be picked up once they’ve been placed in a Castle or Dorm.
* PvP Ranked Match results will now be correct after PvP match completion.
Please know this downtime only addresses the issues listed above, and we are working diligently to fix others that players have brought to us.
Watch the message boards and the Ravenwood News for upcoming information about additional updates and fixes.
Fun, fun, fun! KI sure is busy this semester! You guys are right on top of things as usual. Nice!!
The faculty of Ravenwood School of Magical Arts have listened to your concerns and have updates scheduled for tomorrow morning. Specific details are listed below for the next Wizard101 update.
There will be an update to Wizard101 July 8th at 3am Central US Time that will include the following important changes!
Enhanced Boss Encounters Update
* The bosses of the Spiral have been taught a lesson by Merle Ambrose, and they will no longer interrupt your combat! All the Enhanced Boss Battles are back to normal, but the bosses have kept their knowledge of Power Pips, and they will earn and use Power Pips just like a Wizard.
Crafting Updates
* More Mist Wood and Scrap Iron will be appearing in the Spiral, and should be easier for Wizards to find as they learn the ways of Reagents and Crafting.
* Cool down timers on some recipes have been lowered to allow Wizards to create items more quickly.
* Reagents have been added as rewards for Mini Games!
* The reagents needed for Treasure Cards have been reduced, most notably the number of Treasure Card ingredients needed to create the final Treasure Card.
* The descriptions for some of the Craftable Items were incomplete and should now reflect all the bonuses the items grant the player.
Treasure Card Updates
* Harold Argleston in the Wizard City Library, and Zan’ne in the Krokotopia Library will have some of their inventory of Treasure Cards renewed, but at a cost. Treasure Cards in the Library will be more expensive than in the Bazaar, and the Bazaar will be more expensive than Crafting your own Treasure Cards.
Quest Updates
* The Weapons Cache in Mirkholm Keep will once again allow players to interact with it, without having to switch Realms.
* Death Students will be acknowledged for completing the Sweet Revenge quest.
* Stump Worms will be appearing once again for the Good Eats quest.
Housing Update
* The Wallpaper and Floor textures that had suddenly turned pink and purple for many Wizards, will once again appear as their normal wallpaper and floor patterns!
Thank you Professors!! I am glad somebody was able to teach those silly bosses a lesson! Malistaire needs to fight fair. Now, I wonder if Sylvia Drake will stay? What do you think?
The summer semester is in full swing. Now get back to your studies!!

As we all know, the boss fights along the Spiral have become a little more, um, ‘enhanced’. Professor Cyrus Drake has a message for students of Ravenwood.
I am hearing loud and clear the message that many of you do not approve of the enhanced boss fights, or at least the way in which they were implemented.
The idea behind these was not to make the game more “hardcore”, more difficult or to make it impossible to group. We simply wanted those encounters to be more interesting than 1. Defeat Monster, 2. Collect Loot. Each of the bosses we changed had a twist on normal combat, or required a specific strategy to be employed, like a puzzle.
Rest assured, we have heard your displeasure, and we will re-visit the boss fights very soon.
