Non-Disney Online Games (Wizard 101) Quest Tips & Help Thread!

[aliceblue]

Ah my aliceblue has finally found her way to whizzing. Welcome my dear VMK chum.

Let me know your name, where you are, and I'll try to come find you to add you. Also, I believe some DIS members are going to try to meet up around 8PM EST tonight. I will be in the group.

You don't need to type to use the combat system. It is card based and you have plenty of time to chose cards. It is half automated so you don't need to worry about pointing accurately or anything like that.

Hey Tink! Yeah, my curiosity finally got the better of me . Never thought I'd get in so quickly, but somebody at Ravenwood must have seen me in Runescape getting alternately hit on and hacked at, and taken pity.

I have not actually created my wizard yet. Just got through reading every single post in this thread so I can pretend I know what I'm getting into.

I won't have my wizard in time for the meet tonight, but I hope to catch some of you tomorrow.

Okay, I can't figure it out. How do I chat, I mean the normal talking. I can figure out how to do the pull down quick chat, but it is there must be a way to type in your own words somewhere. I think I have it selected correctly on my account settings to allow 'Dictionary Chat'. So if I do manage to find you all at tonights meeting and you see Grace Silverglade, but she doesn't say anything, don't take it personally!

Golden, just hit your enter key and a box comes up you can type in.

 

[goldengourd]

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.

-I am an adult, but I can not do the open chat. In the parental controls, I have it checked that I can, but it does not work. Is anybody else having this problem? Any ideas how to fix it? Can you only have open chat with friends? (this could be an issue since at this point I have no friends )

Have you tried just hitting the ENTER key? That should open up an empty dialogue box at the bottom of your screen for chatting. Whatever you type there will be seen by other wizards in the area -- provided they don't have restricted chat.

Okay, so yes my account does show my correct birthdate and adult account. Yes I can see other people's open chat, so it must be selected okay. Enter key when? Like just in the walking around view, or do you need to select chat first? Off to experiment...



EDIT: Woot! Got it. Okay, who would have thought to use ENTER before you type anything to say. hehe

I was thinking it might be time for some organized Grubb runs. It seems as if more and more people are getting to the point of having that on their quest list. Dependng on the amount of interested people, we should be able to make a few runs to get everyone through. I would propose a morning and afternoon run on Saturday (7/12). Please post if interested and I'll start to set-up groups of 4. I think it will help if there is a mix of schools in each group along with at least 1 person in the team that is level 25+. Please post your school and current level if you are interested in joining the Grubb run or would like to lead a group.

Warning: Please be aware that this task can take at least 1 1/2 hours (or more) to complete.

 

[Dreamytime]

I can help in the morning and probably early afternoon Saturday.
Level 28, Fire, Shelby

Can anyone help me?
I'm a level 5 myth wizard (weak I know) I started playing 2 days ago and I'm already hooked but the quest are unbelivably hard (for me)

The 2 that I am stuck at are:
"Library dues"
"Find the smiths"

Thanks in advance

 

[Cardinal]

For library dues, you will have to fight the final bosses in each of the major areas of Wizard City (Triton Avenue, Firecat Alley, etc.)

For the smiths, just look in places that are secluded from the main path of the area.

 

[Aerogem]

I found one in Unicorn way, but what about places like "firecat alley" being closed to me.

Another thing, how do people get "Hero of Unicorn way" on them?

 

[Chedstro]

Once you finish the quests on Unicorn Way you get that title. I still have not figured out how to actually "wear" it however

To get all the "smiths" you need to sneak around behind the buildings and gardens as you go. If a gate is blocked to you, just wait to finish the "smiths" until later. Lots of quests work that way. You need to level up to get access to the areas you need to finish them.

Be patient, grasshopper - you can do it - if I can anyone can

 

[sharkm]

Did anyone else do the survey on the Wizard main page? Once you log in you need to scroll down a bit. In one question it mentions the $10.00 monthly fee. Not surprised I guess.

 

[cdog12]

With those two quests no worry they will take you untill you beat the boss at firecat to beat trust me you will get it

 

[BobRichmond]

...Okay, who would have thought to use ENTER before you type anything to say...

Anybody who got stuck with the same challenge in Pirates of the Caribbean Online first!

 

[BobRichmond]

Once you finish the quests on Unicorn Way you get that title. I still have not figured out how to actually "wear" it however ...

If you type "C" to get to your character screen you will see a list of titles you have earned in the right hand area. The top "No Title" will give you your school title (i.e. Novice Sorceror). Once you finish Unicorn Way you will see the "Hero of Unicorn Way" title. Double click on it and it will now show under your name.

As you finish certain areas (i.e. Unicorn Way, Golen Tower, Wizard City, etc.) or kill certain numbers of certain types (i.e. Undead, Golems, Gobblers, etc.) of enemies more titles will be added for you to choose from). At the moment I have 14 pages of mostly empty spaces (112 titles) that can be filled.

No one in my friends list is on right now, anyone wanna meets and kill random things?
