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

[debbi801]

I am finally back to Krokotopia, after being reset. But, it seems like the quests are different, or at least in different orders. I cannot get into the one area (Palace of Fire?) from the main pyramid, and I thought I could last time.

Two questions I am hoping someone can help with...
I am Fire and I was given a spell called "Steal" that I cannot figure out how to use. It costs 1 pip and is supposed to steal clover(?) back. But, the couple of times I've used it, I don't notice it doing anything. So, I've removed it from my deck. Can anyone explain what this spell does?

Also, I was given a quest by Falmea (fire professor) to acquire an ice fire gem. She sent me back to Krokotopia to talk to the librarian there. The librarian told me I could only retrieve one at someplace (can't remember the exact name) that is part of Krokosphinx. But, I can't get onto the boat to get there yet. Did I get this quest out of order? Is there something I have to do to get the Major to give me permission to get on the boat?

Thanks!

You will get access to the Palace of Fire eventually. Just occupy yourself in the Royal Hall and the Chamber of Fire until then.

It will steal a charm from one of the enemies. Say a Krok has cast a boost spell on itself. You can steal that charm from it and put it on your own character instead.

Professor Falmea gives out that quest automatically when you reach Level 18. Unfortunately, I think the vast majority of Pyromancers are nowhere near to having access to Krokosphinx at that point. In fact, I'd be surprised if any of them do. (FYI, I've sent in a comment to the developers about this. I believe all the other schools receive bonus spell quests at the same level but are able to complete them without waiting for areas to open up.)

They added fire gems to the Pyramid of Fire post-wipe, so you'll be able to pick one up there. However, you still need to talk to somebody over on Krokosphinx after that, so don't get too excited about that.

You will get access to the boat to Krokosphinx after you complete the main Pyramid of Fire quests (specifically, the Throne Room of Fire instance). You've got quite a ways to go before that. You could also probably teleport to a friend over on Krokosphinx and complete the quest that way.

4) My personal preference is to wear clothes that give me the most health (red vial) and mana (blue vial). I think others may choose to wear clothes that increase the strenght, accuracy, shielding etc, of a certain school. Try them both out and see what you prefer.

Nice to know. TY

I was picking my clothes by how they looked and if they matched. No wonder I'm still level 10.

Remember if you have the gold to spend, you can always visit the dye shop in Wizard City to get the better clothes to actually match for you.

-----------

Also good to note if you are buying clothes from a shop that different color combos have different costs, so you can often use this to your advantage.

Ok still trying to figure out chat. Is there something I have to turn on in the options before I start the game. Because I can get the chat box but not one person has ever seen anything I say?

Belle, can you see what other people are saying when they are not using the limited chat drop down menu? If you can see it, then yours is turned on. If you can't then you need to go set your options to Dictionary Chat. If the dictionary chat option is not on, you can neither see nor speak with the secure chat option. So if who you are talking to doesn't have it, they won't be able to see it.

Go to www.wizards101.com (the main website page), log in (its on the left side drop down menu), then chose "my account", go to the tab that says Account Controls, toggle on the "Allow Dictionary Chat' (check it), and save.
Then launch the game. Once in game, while you are just standing there, hit Enter. The box at the bottom should come up for you to type in. You should be able to see your words come up on the screen, and see words of others that are typing in their words (versus the drop down).


are you by chance on? I'm going to go by the lake in the common are Falmea area 1 just in case. Maybe we can meet up.

...2. Without giving too much help, I'll just say the Smiths are only about waist high to a normal character, are not labeled in any way, and are never in an area that you will have to fight while getting them. You may be in a "combat" area, but they will be where the enemies can not get to you. The same goes for the beetles in Krok...

Just wanted to correct my reply:
The Smiths are now only about knee high and look like leprecauns with little pots of gold.

Also even though all the comments still hold for the beetles, they are much bigger and usually easier to see then the Smiths. It could be because the Smiths are usually pretty blended in with the green grass they are usually found on where the black beetles are usually found on a brown surface.

 

[BobRichmond]

Can someone tell me where the headmaster is located?

Headmaster Ambrose can be found in his house located in the Commons. When in the Commons your map ("M") should show you exactly where.

 

[BobRichmond]

...Did I get this quest out of order?...

I have said this before, but it is worth repeating. There are quite a few quests in Krokotopia that you will get before you have access to the area where you have to do them. This is somewhat like the Smiths and Library Books quests in Wizard City, but more confusing since they are single item quests. The ones that I can think of at the moment are:
- The Map Platform quest you will get before you can even enter the Palace of Fire in the Pyramid.
- The Thors Hammer quest that you will get before you can get to Bort in the Grand Arena colliseum in the Sphinx.
- The Soul Scavenger quest that you will get before you can enter the room in the Deseret Family Tomb in the Temple of Storms.

There are probably more!

In all cases (so far) you will eventually get another quest that will take you to these areas and at that time both quests will be completed.

Ice has the same problem. We have to defeat an Ice Colloseus in the Hall Of Champions before we can get to the Sphinx. Even when we can get there an Ice Wizard fighting three lvl 3 (one lvl 3 elite) ice enemies is not for the faint of heart.

Thanks to all my friends who always seem to be there for me when I need them - even in the nick of time when the battle has already started.

Hi!

If it's the one I'm thinking of, it does damage over time and there doesn't seem to be any animation that goes with it. After you cast it, you should see a fire shield (like fire elf spell), going around the opponent's feets, and heal shield (like heal-over-time fairy spell) around yours. For the next 3 rounds, the fire will damage your opponent, and you will receive healing.

No it was what Cat said. It steals an opponents +35% charm (Blade).

Ah! Helping my nephew today I found a trainer on Colossus.

QUESTION: Speaking of my nephew....He is an ice person. He finished the Ice Tower battle and it says "Go to the statue near Mindy Pixiecrown". When he goes there nothing happens to advance his quest. Anyone have this issue? ****NVM He logged in again and he got it.

I just thought I would post a little reminder so people are aware why we are doing things a little differently in the wizards thread than the other gaming threads.

When we were approved to play the beta for wizards many of us (self included ) quickly clicked accept to the terms of service. In it we all agreed to not share information about the game publically.

Yup your thinking... what are we doing here? yeah we are sharing information about the game with the public

We are well aware that wizards101 would not like us to post pictures, so thats why nobody is seeing any. Other than that just share your knowledge to help eachother through the game at least to this point has not been frowned on by the game producers. They are aware we are here talking about it and they are aware the moderators would be supportive in the event they felt anything was crossing the line of that disclosure agreement.

I felt this little blurb might just help prevent any confusion

Remember not to post any pictures, and other than that just keep in mind things from a non disclosure agreement perspective while your posting. Which I dont believe anything in this entire thread ever violated. Remember they are really interested in protecting their product, thats what this is all about. So if your not divulging a game secret from that point of view odds are they are probably pleased to see the feedback and are probably enjoying to see a community embrace the game in the manner this one quite obviously did.

So anyways @_@ This wasnt to scare anyone into stopping anything just a reminder that there was a non disclosure agreement, and thats why there are no pictures and the like.

Have fun in their game, I have been

If for some reason they ever have a change in opinion and were to contact any moderator here with that concern, I would share that with you all. No worries

Can anyone explain what the Calm card (life) is for? It says 100% reduce threat on target and has an X where the pip number usually is.

The X indicates that it will use all of your pips at the time it is cast and although I've never really had much luck with the storm version of that spell, soothe, I believe that it should reduce your threat level to that monster to either have them not attack or focus on someone else.

I am elated that I finally made it to Krok; the transition was absolutely awesome! This was a major goal for me and a possible stopping point for playing the game, but apparently that doesn't have to be the case. I'll see how much longer I can proceed in solo mode.
