AzCat, you are my hero ! Thanks for getting me through this, I truly am the Fizzle Queen!
What goes around comes around, if anybody needs my help, just give me a holler. I am still not great at this, but I will come running with all my spells and health, and I'll try to keep the Fizzle to a minimum !
Thanks to everybody else for offering to help (this may be the best online community there is!!)...if only you could help with the Tower

Padric (AZCat) showed up out of nowhere tonight and got me through Hyde Park!!!! Thanks again!! On to Chelsea! I'm almost back to where I was before the wipe!

I'll be on this evening and would be glad to help with the Harvest Lord. My pyromancer is Kenneth DragonHeart.

Unfortunately, no one can help you with Golem Tower. You have to solo it. The good news is that it's a side quest and won't hold you back from otherwise progressing in the game. I suggest coming back to it when you're a higher level. (Though they give you the quest early, I know a lot of people don't complete it until they are at least level 10.)


Excellent question! But I’m afraid there’s no easy answer. This is definitely one of those YMMV things....

Because monsters will usually be added to a fight when somebody else joins, this can prove to be bad news for the first wizard(s). There have been times when I know I have health enough left to finish off a fight, so I don’t bother to heal. Suddenly, another wizard pops into the duel, bringing with them a nice, fully-charged baddie! If I can’t heal before taking a couple hits, I’m toast -– even though I would have won my individual battle.

If I see a battle in progress – particularly one that involves the same creatures I’m after – I’ll first try to quickly scope out the action. If it looks like it’s in the later stages (for example, if I see lots of pips), then I’ll just sit it out and hope to join in the next one. If, however, it looks like the battle has just started, I usually ask if the wizard(s) would mind if I joined in. And, yes, sometimes I just run into the circle a few steps behind the initiator, without asking. Even if more monsters are added as a result, being there from the beginning can make all the difference -- both to the success of the endeavor and to how my participation is received. So far I haven't had any negative reactions -- and have actually made a couple friends that way!

And, of course if you keep losing connection like I was last week, you may make a few enemies!

I finally made it back on, if there is anybody still on willing to help with the Harvest Lord, I would greatly appreciate it! (I have to take the tower on myself!! oh no!!) PM me and I'll come find you. Thanks!!

Aww, I wish I had seen this last night! I managed to defeat the Harvest Lord around the time you posted. And there's a good reason to wait until you're Level 12 before going after the Golem Tower. Let's just say I killed two birds with one stone. I do have a hint, though. Be sure you have a full potion bottle by playing at the Faire. Before you join the Iron Golem fight, click the potion for full healing and mana.

Heheh. Cat had a moment where he popped up into my battle in progress, too. He was very helping in getting me to finish my defeat of 6 Magma Men.

And the funniest thing was that I tried to run to Aengus to add him to my friends and he didn't see me yelling at him to stop running so I could add him. I finally cornered him.

Bury the Bones Quest (where you bury the bones of the Ahnic/Djeserit people in the sarcophagus)...has anyone had any luck? According to the boards ppl haven't been able to do so.

When you go up the sarcophagus is not 'clickable'.

I was still able to go onto Marleybone, but...I would like to finish that up. Anybody redone it since the new patch?

I vote Padric (AZCat) as DIS MVP!

He came to the aid of my Myth Wizard yesterday in the Throne Room of Fire, after Prince Nirini had made toast out of him. Thanks again, mate!

ok so I've been playing for a few days, and I see others have a filtered chat where thay can actually say things other that the basic secure stuff.

How in the world can I set up the filtered chat on my account? I've looked everywhere.

 

[PrincessNoelle]

It depends on whether or not you have an adult account or an under 13 account. If you have an adult account, you can log into the home page to manage your account.

If your account is set up as an under 13 account, you will not be able to active the free chat option. "The Wizard101 team has implemented this to ensure a safe environment for our younger wizards!"

If you are able to open chat, you can do this by pressing enter and typing in the space at the bottom.

 

[whs_singingrose]

Thanks! I didn't know I had to press enter to use it.

 

[whs_singingrose]

thanks I didn't know I had to hit the enter button to use it.

I was having the same problem, check your accounts on the main page, make sure you have open chat enabled. Check your birthday too, if that doesn't work. For some reason they had my birthday all wrong, they had my year of birth as 1997 instead of 1974 for some very odd reason. As soon as I fixed that I was able to chat, and trust me, it makes the game so much more fun and addicting!

I second the nomination!! I would still be battling the Harvest Lord if not for him!

I would have helped you.

 

[Rygo]

I would have helped you.

well I know that! just as I would and will help anybody asking for it. He just seems to have Superman ears...hear's the call for help from miles away and it there faster then a speeding bullet

Ok, I am not bashing the Wizards Forum, but am I the only one who found this thread more helpful then the whole forum over there? Or did I just have my blond wig on when I was exploring their forum? That happens to me a lot when it comes to computers....

Question: How can you tell what rank a spell has? As in, you don't get the experience points for using a lower ranking spell on a higher ranking enemy (it was something like that, not sure any more of the wording or the lower rank enemy with a higher rank spell)

I thought it was based on the number of pips required to cast the spell, but I have no idea how the X spells count that just use up all of your pips.

Good afternoon all! I am doing great and am higher than I was before the wipe. However I am truly stuck. I have to defeat Ice Collosus, and I can't ind him at all. I do mean all. He is not even showing up on my map. I can't get my next ice spell until I take them proof of defeating him. Any idea where he might be? If I should not have asked this, sorry all. Getting extremely frustrated though as I am almost on level 22.

BTW, anyone in need of my help, I'll be glad to lend it. Look for Destiny Goldencloud. I'm usually on around 9:00 at night and later. To late judging by the lack of sleep I've been getting!

Okay, be careful when you get the Serpant of the Staff and Eye of Krok tasks from Professor Winthrop in the Map Room of the Pyramid. If you log out after the Serpant Staff, you will have to repeat it. Also, I got stuck in the Map Room after completing both tasks. Could not teleport out or teleport to a friend. I had to log out and complete the two tasks again. Make sure NOT to log out until you speak with Winthrop at the altar again and get the quest to speak with Sergeant Talbot. Best idea may be to follow through all the way to the start of Sphinx Island just to make sure you don't have to keep repeating. Took me five tries until the tasks actually took. On the bright side, I picked up a lot of experience points and some nice goodies.

 

[bevgray]

Hey Destiny, is this a task for your spell school? When I had mine, I had to go to the Storm Tower in Ravenswood (this was for a minion). You might try your school's Ice Tower (these are located around Bartleby).

 

[LafChill]

Actually I believe the ice colossus is in one of the unmarked rooms at the end of the arena area. Give that a try.

OK, I have been at this for way too long and I am getting ready to give up. I have all the quests complete for Triton Ave and Cyclops Lane, and I am getting started of the quests for Firecat Alley. (I swear you all know something I don't cause I am still only at level 12) I do just fine in the street battles, but the minute I step into any tower, I turn into the Fizzle Queen and before I know it, I am back in the Commons with no health.
Any tips as to what I could be doing wrong? I have been trying to clean up one street at a time, but that isn't working cause I can't get past the towers at the end. So I move onto to the next street but all I seem to be doing is adding tower quests to my quest log.
HELP!!! I was having so much fun in this game, but am now starting to get very frustrated with it.

Also, when I went up to level 12, I had a pop-up from Dalia Falmea telling me to come to the school cause she needed me for something. I got there and she had nothing for me. Was she supposed to or was that a bug?
