What's New?

Posted January 31, 2010.

Blog update to change the name of the tiers and magical store products and spells. I focused on the tiers, so you'll still find references to things from the original game if you read the blog carefully.

Another thing is Sougata Som (many thanks) came across information regarding Big Blonde Guy's attack bonus - 30% o-O

If you're into duel, that's a really good advantage over your opponents.

Yes, I am aware of the changes. If you don't, please read this.

Do actively send this week's limited gift - it's worth it.

I think players are still reporting rollbacks. So I believe we're not out of the woods yet. There's been no announcement from the developer yet. Please be patient.

Pages updated: Real Estate and Lessons. Real Estate page now contains more information about purchasing properties and how much rent income you loose when you go over 3 days without collecting. Lessons page now contains more detailed information about Lessons targeted to new players/beginners.


Which reminds me, it takes a lot of work and time to make this blog. It is OK to pass out the info you find here on the Forums, which for me, it's normal and expected, since we're all here to help out. But to copy and paste verbatim entire posts without at least putting a link back to the blog or mentioning the correct author is just wrong, not to mention a complete disrespect. (hint: I spoke with Katz and he said he has no idea why he's receiving the credit)

The game is back to what it used to be before the Friday's updates. At the present moment, the advices on this blog are relevant again.

But in case you haven't heard, the developer is making adjustments to the game, he's particularly keen on changing the weight of the Attack/Defense points which will impact people's ability to duel. Right now, I strongly advise you to ignore my comments regarding skill points although the developer said that when he is ready to change the TAP/TDP algorithm again, he would consider resetting all the skill points allocations. This way players will be able to reallocate their skill points accordingly with the new rules, so that no one will end up with the short end of the stick.

The developer also started a thread in the forums where you can voice your opinions regarding the changes proposed to the current dueling system. Click here to go to the forums and voice your opinion and suggestions. This is probably the only game on FB where the developer actually listens to the players.

    ReplyDelete
  13. @ Karissa - Write the headmaster? I don't understand. If you want to contact the developer just read this post: http://schoolofwizardry.blogspot.com/2009/11/contact-developer.html

    @ smallberryz - There's been a problem with the servers and we're not out of the woods yet according to the post the Developer left on the application wall. Players are getting their progress rolled back left and right, you are not alone.

    I would personally postpone any purchase at this moment be it properties or items until the situation is completely solved. I would rather just save up the money, but I don't know if the bank is being affected too. I can't tell 'cause I'm really not keeping track of it. I'm just dueling, repeating old lessons and banking the gold.

    ReplyDelete
  14. I just withdrew 345,000 in gold from the bank to make a purchase, and got the "error in loading - please refresh" box. I reload the page, and ALL my gold is gone!!!! Grrrrrrrr!!! Any hope of getting it back? If not, I'm totally done with this game.

    ReplyDelete
  15. err..is there anything that i can do to get all my items and everything back??

    ReplyDelete
  16. @GeekGirl - I don't think so.

    @smallberryz - Are you referring to the rollbacks? I'm going to quote the developer in this one: "There was a major server malfunction a few hours ago. Things should be more stable now but some of you might have had your accounts rolled back. Unfortunately, there isn't much I can do to fix that. We're not completely out of the woods yet so expect some issues here and there. Thanks for being patient."

  17. The developer just came out with this:

    15% increase on gold and XP from lessons until 12/25. Happy Holidays!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Is supposed to tell me what house i have been assigned to, when I complete Lesson 4 level1

    ReplyDelete
  19. I lost levels! From 41 to 35 and lots of gold... What do I do?!

    ReplyDelete
  20. will you be updating your blog with the new information? like the new names of the things we need to purchase, the names of the years that are now changed, etc. Thank you for all the hard work you do :)

    ReplyDelete
  21. Hey everybody, most of it is very easy to figure out on our own if we just take a few minutes to compare each "year". Spells are easy too if you know enough about what each one did, (ie: lumos, gives the wand a flashlight effect...get it folks?) thanks, blogger, for all the help you have given us, it is amazing!

  22. I am having a problem with having to re-purchase items already purchased. I am working Level 3 of the quest and when I went to play a couple days ago I had to repurchase all items needed. I thought okay, just a glitch, but when I went in to play today, I had to again purchase all items needed to play. I am on the last lesson in this quest and on level three and had to repurchase all items to play it.
