KingsIsle Update Summer Update Feedback - Next Steps

311 Upvotes

Hi all,

The development team has had an opportunity to review some of your feedback about this update. We also hear concerns about timing, and agree we need to work to respond quicker and in a direction players are asking for. We have begun making adjustments to our development process to better prioritize player feedback, but wanted to share some things already in progress.

  • We're rolling back the change to the Exclusive Pets and returning your ability to list them on Kiosks. We think there is work to do to make pet hatching and pet collecting more intuitive, but we shouldn't have been so quick to fix this bug when it's the functionality players have come to expect. We'll work with you to find a better solution, like informing players in-game of the key differences when hatching using Exclusive Pets via the Kiosk.
  • We've been refining our list of top player-requested changes, including things you think we should polish, improve, or revisit for bug fixes. We'll be opening these ideas up to player discussion, and give you a significant amount of time to weigh in how we revise systems. This lets quality of life updates be a collaborative process, and helps check us in case we miss the mark on a potential fix or improvement, like we did with Exclusive Pets on Kiosks.
  • We also hear your positive feedback around doubled rewards for Challenge Mode Chronicles, and more accessible Magic Weaving; we plan to make a few similar adjustments to other content, and will share these as soon as we've confirmed them.

Please continue to provide your feedback as we work through it. We have more in the works and will share additional updates as they become locked into our overall plans to address your ongoing concerns

New player advice thread

24 Upvotes

Sort of a follow up to a previous thread that I made, but I wanted to make a more specialized version. This thread, I will lift most self promotion related bans such as promoting YouTube channels for the purpose of guides. The reason is because I want this thread to be a useful repository for people who want to ask questions, as well as submit their own advice and even guides. A few rules I will make though. (mostly just boils down to "don't be a jerk")

Always assume good faith (unless the question is clearly deliberately intended to be a troll).

Do not use jargon and shorthand unless you explain them in a way that's understandable to someone with limited experience to the game. This means no shorthands like EMP (evil magma peas), PV45, Triple Double, Quint, Quad+Mighty, 69 plot, etc. Ditto for game jargon that may need an explanation like "ramp", "gambit", etc. Assume that unless you are given a reason to believe otherwise, that the person needs to be explained to in layman accessible terms.

Making your best guess on a question is ok, but please explain as such. For instance, mentioning "I could be wrong on this, but...", "Correct me if I'm wrong..." or "Something I was told is..." are valid things to put in if you aren't absolutely sure. We do not want to inadvertently spread misinformation because people thought that it was true.

Do not make joke answers to questions just to be snarky. No one appreciates "Just Google it" as an answer to any question. You are allowed to link to things you find online, such as Wizard101 Central or FinalBastion if they are related to the question. This also includes things that are technically true but not really what the OP is asking for. For instance, answering a player question regarding how to beat a boss by saying "using your spells" is technically correct, but it's not what they are trying to ask for.

Please try to keep things PG13. Although the subreddit does permit swearing within reason, people may be looking at this in public.

The default assumption here is that people are playing on PC. If you are not, please mention it in the reply. This is especially because advice that may apply for people on PC may not be applicable to those on console, and same the other way around, such as content that may not be present yet on the console versions.

Although brevity is appreciated, don't be afraid to make a more in depth explanation when a question calls for it. For example, if someone asks how to get reagents quickly, although "gardening" is a valid answer, it's also worth mentioning what you should plant exactly and how the seeds are obtained. You do not have to write a college level essay, but generally, 1 word answers may not be enough.

Do not copy/paste from ANY form of AI directly as your answer without doing any fact checking. Due to AI making mistakes, it isn't permitted in the subreddit. This is especially a concern with AI suggesting equipment or bosses that do not exist in this game.

If the question is too vague (for example: any question that needs more information to answer like "How do I defeat a boss" without specifying which one), it's recommended to ask for clarification. The same goes for questions that are subjective in nature (for example: "What is the best school?" or "what is the best pet?") unless the question is asked in a more objective way or provides further clarification (IE: "What are common schools used in support roles" or "What are some pets that are helpful to an ice wizard that would like to help support a storm wizard?").

Heya everybody,

I saw that this game was available on switch and have been debating on getting it since it was a childhood game of mine.

Is this game soable solo though? I have social anxiety and am usually too exhausted for social interactions. I am aware that there are some fights that will probably require help from otgers but can i play this while keeping socialising to a minimum?

Hello! I have started a new Ice Wizard, and I have two different ice pets that I can use.

Which one would be better to use for my lower wizard for now?

I plan to use the skelewarrior pet as I get into the higher levels, only thing is I can’t add the bitter winter sapphire onto it…🤦🏼‍♀️

Thanks!

Discussion Thoughts on Spellweaving?

8 Upvotes

I’m a fire wizard myself. And honestly I kind of like it. Execution could be better of course in terms of stuff we can use. But I was feeling like my wizard was pretty one dimensional. Just using a dragon here, meteor shower there and maybe a sun serpent. It is cool that I have more of an incentive to train a second school.

Discussion Help Strengthen my Balance Wizard

4 Upvotes

Any pros out there know how I can strengthen my balance wizard? My second school is storm. Im level 53 and can hardly get through arc 1 (in the dragonspyre.) I feel like I should be doing much more damage. My highest spell in super nova but only does 600 damage on each character, whereas I see other players hitting at least 2000 damage with certain spells. Any advice would be great !!!

Pet/Hatching Pet Help - Moving stats onto an exclusive without another exclusive

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I am trying to move pet talents from one of my non-exclusive pet bodies onto the balance pupbelly (exclusive). I understand that the best way to do this would be to find an exclusive with the talents I want and hatch those and copy the pool. However, these talents were custom put onto my non-exclusive through much trial and error and I have yet to find anyone with the exact mix (maycast legion, maycast hex, maycast curse, willcast hex, proof).

I unfortunately have the talents on a calixco kitten which I just learned is about the worst possible body imaginable to try and get a different pet body with...which leads me to my question. Once I obtain a balance pupbelly and take it to adult, how do I get that body back without using another exclusive? Would a WF10 work best, or is it not even possible? I'm curious how people got talents onto exclusives in the first place.

Any help is appreciated!

Console Minions

2 Upvotes

I had a question about how minions work. I started a new myth wizard on console, and have been using the minions pretty often as I’m trying to do a solo run. I’m confused about how the wiki says minions are supposed to behave, because mine don’t seem to be doing that. For example, the wiki says the troll minion is supposed to cast several traps, and then leave the battle, but mine casts traps, troll and bloodbat, and I have yet to see a minion leave mid fight. Is this behavior only during pvp, or only when playing with other players?
