KI LIVE: NEW GAME CONTENT


KI Lives are always our favorite time of the month to get with the community about all things Kingsisle. For July’s show, we answered your gameplay questions, gave away multiple in-game items (see below!), announced a new community events, and much more. The usual developers made an appearance as well, but we also had a special guest-to-be-permeant attendee that just joined our marketing team!

The Wizard101 team was also excited to share with the entire community the new Summer Update for the game! Missed the show? Watch it now YouTube!


It's always a blast hanging out with the community, so let us know what you most like about KI Lives so we can continue to make them even more fun to watch.

Secret Reader Bonus - The giveaway code was also changed up a bit with an exclusive Pirate101 code provided this time. As of this newsletter's announcement, for those who didn't get a chance to redeem the KI Live giveaway code yet, we opened it up again (TERRORSTATUES2021) for another 500 redemptions!

For more videos and livestreams, be sure to subscribe to KingsIsle's YouTube channel.

A great gameplay tip submitted to KI Live comes from Senor Spicy: “Want to make your pirate the best of the best? Talk to Prospector Zeke in all the worlds and complete his quests! He can give you 7 more practice points to help your pirate learn new powers and talents along with the 14 you receive from questing.” - Senor Spicy

The Friendly Necromancer got sidetracked again and this time in Aquila! Have you ever done the promotional quests for Buffalo Bill? If not, pirates, meet Buffalo Bill, the wildest buffalo in the... Aquilan west?

“So, I know last post I said I was most likely headed to Mooshu for side quest fun, but I got sucked into Aquila instead and . . . so there I stayed. I ended up doing the promotion quest for Buffalo Bill and a bunch of random skyway missions involving vulture pirates.” - The Friendly Necromancer

SEAFOOD SALAD – A PLAYER STORY



null

From Adventures of the Spiral, Loveable Melody and Humble Misty have one more quest to put Lasko to rest in Trader’s Cave!

“As the girls went into the Meeting Cave, they were met by Razortooth who was expecting Seger. When he figured they were not part of his crew, a tussle occurred. Melody was hidden behind a towering boulder and decided to sneak up to the left side and surprise them. Misty went to the right and used her Grand ShadowDance while Pepe Detorteau laid some bombs between the foe and his captain. Next time Melody put some bombs down and her crew went to join the others. Bombs were blowing up all around Razortooth and his gang and it wasn’t soon after the sharks surrendered! Razortooth let the pirates know the plan was to wipe out Skull Island and make the skyway be the threshers again.” - Adventures of the Spiral
