We're Nearing The Halloween Run: Your Checklist

Hello Wizards!

I can't believe how fast October has flown by. We're already on the 16th Day of October. How is time flying by so fast? Either way, it's nice to know that one of my favorite Holidays, Halloween, is quickly approaching. Our 3rd Annual Halloween Run event is also quickly approaching!



Many of you already know that we've been talking about our Halloween Run event since the end of July. We've shockingly spent a lot more time preparing for this event than any other event. Don't get me wrong, it's a lot of fun preparing for the Halloween Run because we get to test out new ideas. I think those who are able to attend the entirety of the event will LOVE this year's activities. Nothing is perfect, but I think the Halloween Run will be a lot more fun than July's Holiday Mashup. Since the event is quickly approaching, let's talk about what you should do before this year's event!



Read The Official Post 
This year's Halloween Run will be full of fun activities (we didn't even go into detail about what we'll be doing - so don't miss out on those activities). This year's event will be different than any other event that we've had. Please read the official post for this year's event by clicking on the link below. It's important that you know what we'll be doing before attending the event. The official post also has an epic raffle! Click on the link below to access this event post and raffle:


Watch The Halloween Run Guide
The Halloween Run Guide is a video that shows you where everyone will be running during the main event (which begins at 3:00 pm Central on Sunday, October 28th after the activities). The Run is not a race. We're simply running around wizard city with an awesome crowd of friends! If you've never been to one of these events, I still think you'll enjoy participating in this event. Remember to watch the guide below before the event begins. 


Watch The Official Stream
Last, but certainly not least, is for you to watch our Official Stream. We'll be streaming the entire event on Twitch. You don't need a Twitch Account to watch our stream. Streaming our events help provide everyone with important information such as when we'll be starting an activity or other surprises. Our Twitch Stream begins at 12:00 pm Central on Sunday, October 28th. We'll be streaming the entirety of the event. If you're late, that's okay. You can still view the Official Stream on Twitch by visiting the link below.





We have so many awesome surprises for the community during this year's Halloween Run. We hope you're able to join us. If you do, remember to keep it family-friendly and do not beg for gifts. Our main goal is to bring the community together for a fun event. This is why this is a free and open event for all of the community! We hope you have fun at our 3rd Annual Halloween Run.

Wizard101: Great Detective Bundle


Kingsisle has officially announced the Great Detective Bundle that can be bought at GameStop for $29! This is an epic new bundle that comes with an amazing Hot Air Balloon - Housing Item Ride, Gyrocycle Mount, Baskerville Hound Pet, Sherlock's Outfit, Sherlock's Eyeglass, and a 1 Month Membership to Wizard101 or 5,000 Crowns! Level 130 Gear & Weapons have been added to this new epic bundle.

I've tested out a few things in this new bundle - such as the Hot Air Balloon Ride. You can get up to 3 friends in this new Housing Item Ride. It takes you up far enough to take some epic screenshots! Another one of my favorite things about this new bundle is the Gyrocycle Mount. I've already redeemed this mount for my new myth wizard! He's needed a new mount and this mount was perfect for him. This bundle is a bargain for its price. Thank you, Kingsisle, for creating another awesome bundle. :D

Wizard101 Questing: Where We Ended Up (Week 6)

Ahoy Wizards (had to switch it up)!

I hope you're having a wonderful Wednesday. This post is a Group Questing Recap Post! As many of you already know, Autumn & I have a questing stream every Tuesday at 6:00 pm Central with amazing friends in-game! We've already quested through Wizard City and parts of Krokotopia. Let's talk about where we ended up for our sixth week of group questing!



Last week we ended on the quest "Fangdango" that required us to talk to Alharaz, the Balance Instructor in Krokosphinx. Shortly after, we made our way to the Entrance Hall and began quested through the Hall of Champions! Here we had to fight various bosses and mobs. There was a tough collect quest (where we had to collect Ice Shards from Glacial Avengers. This quest took quite some time to complete, but we all eventually completed it. :) 



We started the Grand Arena by fighting Spiders. We didn't get far into this area because we didn't want to get too far ahead for everyone who was unable to join us. I am already looking forward to next week! It's been so much fun questing with this amazing group of friends! We've also had help from higher level wizards - thank you again for your help! Anyway, I'm now going to share the quest we ended on and when you can expect our next questing stream.


Quest: "Gladiator Games"
Your Task: Complete All Side Quests in Accessible Areas

Fighting Medulla For The First Time!

Hello Wizards!

Yesterday, Autumn Dreamwalker & I announced that we wanted to fight Medulla for our Sunday stream. We were expecting the worse because Medulla is the toughest boss in Wizard101. We did however have awesome friends cheering us on!




If you watch the video above, you'll see us casting spells, fleeing, and more! Thank you so much ChrisTheNecromancer for helping us in this crazy dungeon! Seriously, this was definitely the craziest fight I've been throughout of the 9 1/2 years I've been playing Wizard101. I am happy that we defeated Medulla, though. We worked together to finally defeat him after a year of waiting!


Final Thoughts: Medulla Near The Center - High Difficulty, Not Near Impossible Difficulty


Final bosses are always fun because of the level of difficulty. Although this was a very stressful fight, I still think Kingsisle did a great job. I just hope Empyrea Part 2 provides us with the appropriate spells, gear, and pet talents that will help everyone quest through future content. Speaking of Empyrea Part 2, I am glad we're finally ready! I look forward to the test realm. Until next time, I'll see you around the spiral.
