Grandmaster Artisan at last!

 Never thought I'd make it this far, but alas I have, woot. And so close to GM Gardener too, yay. All on my main alt, of course, Kieran Storm. However, Adrian and Ryan are both closely tied doing the DS crafting quests, and Adrian rank 8 gardener. Ryan is my lowest gardener, rank 2, but that's because I only a couple days ago actually started gardening on her, lol. Took a lot of time reagent hunting to make it this far, and if only Pink Dandelions were out when I needed them! Ha. S'all good though. Oh no, I need to get the recipe for my Legendary stuffs doh, just remembered.

First party for me that didn't crash!

To start off the blog, despite it is the day after - Happy Birthday to Jordan Seadreamer, and I really do hope that you had a wonderful birthday. X and myself would have stayed longer at the party but after almost two hours of being there and the crowds getting larger and larger, we could not see anything, and my poor old laptop could handle no more. I barely made it to jump to my balance house without a major lag. I wonder how far wizard was to crashing like it did that one time? lol. It really was hard for me to move, to see, to do anything, but, I had a fun time. I wanted to battle, but, I probably would have gotten in there eventually, and then, it would have lagged so much for me that I wouldn't have been able to duel anyhow. So, it was probably a very good thing that I didn't get pulled in.

So, here is a picture of when I first arrived from porting to Jordan. I ran across the draw bridge first, before I took a screenie. People were already battling in the circle, but, we were probably within the first ten people there.

Happy Birthday Jordan!

 So, today Z and I actually made it to a party celebrating Jordan Seadreamer's birthday, and were able to stay with out the game crashing on us! Yay, lol. First time though we were actually on seperate computers. Though, for Z, he was having some hard times when the crowds grew, and didn't seem to stop. It was even worse when Friendly arrived, with people screaming frantically his name (though not literally in game, since we don't have voice chat, however I'm betting some people literally screamed his name at home in their chair when they saw him arrive, lol) when he appeared. Little did I know, he was closer to me than I realized.

Legend twins meet Malistaire

It's taken me a while to getting around to making this blog post, but here it is none the less, whether it'll be long or not.

The Legend Twins finally made it through to Malistaire and kicked butt - well, sort of. I personally thought that they would do a lot better than they did, but, a lot of things have changed for the Mali run anyhow. And, it really irritated me about the Orthrus spell, being one moment it hit hard, the next moment it wouldn't. I don't know if it was just a spazz moment or what.
We zoomed through the easy mobs after flying over the great volcano, and up to the elevator. Reed, of course, had to stop and take a quick glance around and also show off a little standing at the very edge before the elevator trip up to the gurtoks. Oddly enough we didn't have that many issues with tower shields, thankfully.

Orthrus Galore

So, as mentioned briefly in Z's last post, we did indeed finally take the Legend Twins, Ryan and Reed on the last quest before reaching Celestia. (Excluding the optionals of course, Briskbreeze and the Warehouse) Here are some of my favorite shots of Ryan using Orthrus.(More on the Mali run in a later post by Z.)

Uh oh, he hath woken..

I must say that playing myth, isn't all that easy. It's not hard, necessarily, don't get me wrong, but it has proven at times to be even more challenging than using storm. But I can't help but always have fun when playing on Ryan, I've definitely grown a liking to her. 

DDO Vs. Wizard101

Here's Aevhree Ocean and Aesleng Jade, our main characters on DDO.

Lately X and I have been roaming the realm of DDO or Dungeons and Dragons Online, as well as Atlantica Online, and only getting on Wizard to do our gardens, and Malistaire on the Legend twins. So, I’m dedicating an actual entry toward the other games. 

The Final Countdown

So, while Z and I were waiting for Grace to be able to play again in CL, we finally took the leap and jumped on our myth team to do the last quests we had in Dragonspyre. It is official, we have the quest now to enter the last dungeon before heading off to Celestia. We had a lot of fun playing them, but as usual, being out of senses so to speak, having not played myth in a couple months, it took some time getting back in to the swing of things. But pretty soon we were kicking DS butt, and hatching our drake.

You Go Girl!

So, while playing with Grace I actually managed to get some snap shots of Grace using Rebirth! Boy let me tell you, she really comes in handy in CL. Man, even with 3500 health, Adrian has come very close to dying. To the point where I'm on the edge of my seat wondering if I'm going to even make it through the next round! Lol. But, thankfully, Nina, or in game, Grace is there to save the day. Even though sometimes it has cost her her own life! Eek. Can't wait to play some more in CL with you Grace! Looking forward to it.

Here are the awesome pics of the awesome spell for theurgists, Rebirth!

Grace here

Hey I'm Grace Dreamhaven actually my name, for all intents and purposes here, is Nina, Grace Dreamhaven is just one of my characters on a lil game called Wizard101 & yes I believe she is my favorite char that I have, partly because she is my first character that I made there. Grace is level 51 & her main school is Life, but she also knows death spells, a few myth spells, & 1 balance spell (the reshuffle one). I used to run around on her with Kieran & Tristan, but since I had computer problems for a while & couldn't access the game they kept those chars going, but were nice enough to get 2 other chars ready for when I could get back on so that I can run with them. They are Adrian & Suri & they are extremely helpful in CL right now, to the point where I literally pack my deck with healing spells, some shields, & some healing boosting spells so that I can keep us alive when we have to battle or one gets pulled in. On the rare occasions when I'm able to get on but they aren't I run around trying to do the crafting quests cause I let myself get WAY behind on them. I'm finally working on part 3 of the DS crafting quest & I have to admit I am completely sick & tired of having to hunt for black lotus. Speaking of which I am going to go do that now & after I get all of those so I can have all the black pearls I need I get to work on getting bloodmoss or red mandrake (or even tons of deep mushroom & mist wood) so that I can eventually move on to the next crafting quest, whatever it may be.

Spiral Wonders

This isn't going to be a very long blog post. It's actually going to mostly be pictures, however, it's fun and interesting (IMHO) anyway. One of my most favorite things in the game, would have to be the design of the actual Spiral of which us wizards, and other beings through out, live in. And I love to just stare at the moving replica(s) and try and see if I can find each of the known worlds, and even see if I can see worlds to come. 

Zaolan and I, the other day were visiting the one in Celestia, that is pretty much the exact same as the one found in Gamma's room, in Wizard City, and I decided to take a few snap shots. See how many of the worlds you can pin point. Enjoy!

Happy Wizarding!

P.S. Happy 1.1.11 *CoughNotePostDate/TimeCoughCoughSneeze*

Grace hath landed;

Or rather, she has swam her way through parts of Celestia! Z's and my's very bestest friend who has been MIA ITS lately due to computer issues, has finally made it back to the spiral. Now, because of scheduling with work, and other things, play time isn't like it was with Kieran and Tristan while running through Celestia for us. Also, our team has dramatically changed! It had always been Kieran, Tristan and Grace running through the spiral together, but since her absence, Storm and Sky were forced to become a duet, rather the trio they were used to.

Because of such, Zaolan and I purposely leveled my Ice, and his Fire to be paired with Grace upon her return. Last week, we had our first run with the newly formed trio, and it was quite an adventure I must say. Very different to be playing in Celestia as the tank, rather the guns I was used to, from my Diviner. It was also a welcoming feeling to know that there was Grace, to heal myself, or even Suri when/if we needed and we were unable to do so ourselves at that moment. 

Very different, since with Kieran and Tristan, we were dying left and right, unable to heal when needed, and hit at the same time. Now, Grace has posting privelages on this here blog, and maybe some day she'll make an appearance. It really depends on her schedule, lol. Here are some screenies from our battles the other day. Enjoy!

Suri using Meteor Strike under water, looks pretty neat.

Adrian using Colossus.

I had tried to take a picture of Grace using Rebirth, but it screened it late, and there for the pic didn't turn out. Maybe next time. 

And until next time, happy wizarding everyone!

Been a while, I know.

I can’t help but feel sorry, but things outside of Wizard have been going on, and it makes times difficult, as well as mind sets, to play, let alone blog about Wizard. It doesn’t help that Z and I are both feeling some what bored with Wizard.. and instead of countless hours on Wizard, we’ve been venturing back in to the world of Social Networking Games. No, not Farmville, but close.

Wanted to post a new years post, but just couldn’t bring myself to. No, not because I don’t hope all our readers, fellow bloggers, and fellow wizards have happy new years. Instead, because I just didn’t feel like sitting down and posting on a blog that’s solely dedicated to Wizard101, when I haven’t really played it minus maybe 30-60 minutes a day lately. And that’s mostly just to work on gardening.

Which in itself, is pretty awesome. Yes, it does give something new to the game. Which, is always good. But it still doesn’t take away the feeling of “deja-vu” any time we get on to play. Since, we have so many characters that are highish levels, and even one set of characters that we have literally raised up to a couple quests to DS, and then deleted, and restarted..things get a bit repetitive. I don’t know how you guys do it with your multiple accounts all holding multi grands. Kudo’s to you.

I just don’t think I could do that, lol. So, what with things getting to be boring, and yet not at the same time, we’ve been spending a lot of our time on the frontier (*coughfronteirvillecoughcough*) or something of the like. I have a lot of pictures to upload, and blog about, including some more on New Gobblerton (still love that quest line KI!).

Also some random pictures from in and around Celestia, as well as some gardening pics. But at the moment, I’m using a new program that came with our new computer to blog, and I’m really now sure how this works, and to be safe, I’m going to just wait and do a few test runs on our test blog when it comes to picture uploading.

Until next time friends, have a good day, have a good night, and have a good time.
