SPOILER BEFORE I WATCH THIS VIDEO: YES. IMO ever since they removed double garden rewards and thus made the requirement to get a pet either spend your life savings or have no life, there have been a series of decisions that seem to be a major "screw you" to anyone who wants to play the game for fun (myself included). In my opinion it's not the symbols or complex mechanics, but the massive time commitment of the leveling and pet grind that gatekeeps so many players like my self. This game should be much more focused on raids and PvP (and other repayable content), I believe it would be a vastly more popular game.
Wiz101 is probably the "grindiest" game i ever played, but I love it! Especially if you got multiple chars and 2 accounts like me.. I'm sitting here budgeting my time all the time.... "I have to quest a little" Wait i leveled up! "uses energy to train pet" Not producing enough mega snacks? "farms for more CPs" My storm doesn't have enough damage/pierce.. "farms for gear/jewels for hours" And don't forget to do those Zeke and Crafting quests.....for "ALL" characters! LOL
the newer worlds doesnt even drop stuff anymore like random boots or robes or so no way to make gold unless plant or winter tusks previously we used to get random drops from mobs which can be sold
they should just make the roshambo spells pve and maybe make like a tutorial around them and what the symbols mean, integrate people with the new symbols so they can understand them and their utility.
I really appreciate you making this video. You made key points that needed to be said. I left the game almost two years now popping in and out every now and then to check things out. One of the problems I have with this game now is the time it takes and the dungeons that people keep leaving in the middle of because they did not get what they wanted in a certain fight, or they did get what they wanted in a fight. They do not stay till the end to help and leave us to struggle, fail or die with the feelings of wanting to give up. Only to end up starting all over again with the same thing happening again and again. It is a massive time commitment with the leveling, and the pet grinding, the dungeons that have to have a team that stay till the end of the dungeon to win. Somebody like me that can't be on as much at this point in my life and so many players like me, just don't have hours to spend trying to fight in a dungeon and have people leave, or you have never done that dungeon before so that make people leave. People that have not done a certain dungeon are not as good as the ones that have done it many times before. Thats just the way it is. I wish this game would help us out a bit at the signal, give us a hint button for dungeons to help build our deck for each dungeon. Like adding feints, stun blocks, say no blade in fight two, and stuff like that. Make all players stay till end of fight. If you die and go heal that's different but leaving in the middle and not returning is wrong and hurts other players. Do not give winnings to any player till end of dungeon. That will stop a lot of problems.
Honestly seeing all this endgame stuff and other stuff thing basically required to grind this game to have a good wiz makes me depressed its upsetting knowing if i continue to play the game ill eventually be forced to use discord to get anywhere and than see people in community ridicule you for not knowing all these little dumb things ablut the game/ basically a second job
I have one single Level 170 Ice character, with 4 pieces of reaver (athame, amulet, ring, deck) and 4 pieces of aeon (hat, robe, boots, wand). On my one and only character I have completed every single side quest in the game, every one shot duel, every gauntlet, every event, etc. and the content that I haven’t done are specifically challenge mode content like raids and nightmare challenge. Even when the nightmare is in standard mode, it seems like a major pain to complete 25 times to get a 1% increase in stats for the hat, robe, boots, and wand. Not worth the time at all. Wiz doesn’t take a lot of time from me at all as I only have one character and I have the most fun in the game like that. I have death and storm as my dual school alternatives of choice and I am really happy with my choice. It really comes down to how you want to balance your time. One character is really all you need it you don’t have a lot of time like me and it’s more fun than balancing on multiple characters.
Ok ima be fr sometimes I’m like: oh what do I gotta do to get myself hype to play wiz like I want to look forward to logging in and accomplishing stuff not be thrown into a bunch of grind heavy gameplay that makes it monotonous
The game will continue to spiral downhill with our current devs until it hits rock bottom and servers close down permanently with the way the game is being run since it’s becoming too try hard catered. The current devs need to be fired imo! I don’t have hope for w101. Also, not the Emo emu in the background of your wizard towards the end 😭
Recently found out about this vid. I consider myself a casual player, some1 who has never even gotten past Krysallys. I believe the whole premise of getting "the best of" sth is anti-casual by itself. If you just enjoy the game for its story, art, etc, you dont need to go out to get the best of everything. In a sense, I would just change the difficulty of some mobs and bosses so you do not require the absolute best things. But because of try hard players and whales, casual players suffer. I don't think it's only KI fault, but those type of players as well
I just don't understand why 'advanced combat' is a thing that exists! It's almost hard to believe that there was once a time where every card was allowed in pvp and some matches were determined by luck only.
I’ve gotten the gist of the standard mode pretty easily. I want to do challenge but can’t find anyone :( also pet hatching isn’t the worst thing in the world. There are plenty of pet hatching guides on TH-cam’s to get the desired talents to manifest. with just $5 for potions (that’s stupid af) I was able to make the perfect triple double pet for my death in 8-9 hatches
I'm ok on pets but I have a tons of Couchies so can burn snacks for fun. I do feel for new players but why use any potions for $. You have 6 players use that energy and hatches from. investing in energy gear helps for pets, gardening and fishing.
@@cheervalx oh yea it’s complete rng. U can pretty much be entirely f2p with per hatching. just gold, and just garden garden garden ur cp and emp And wait till double pet xp. Already got a perfect base for my fire to inbreed with
@@prathamvankar2401 True but if your pet is gonna fail a lot, transfer make the hatches, you do before work or school or bed, you have pets to work on later. Maybe 1 is good and use that to move forward. It's better than like Val posted above spending $30 real money, that 6 months membership. TBH when I spent on elixirs i found my luck was worse. Also I think talents seem more likely to fail during double pets.
The Chinese New Years pet is "only" 5k crowns which for KI isn't bad but not a chance I'm paying $10 plus tax which is 20% for me for a pet. I won't spend any real money making it perfect but the time and resources on top of that price, nah. 100k gold to hatch in the kiosk is nuts and should cost the same as in person. Nobody needs to use elixirs TBH and player need to be more patient, use your six wizards free timers, do multiple hatches(self hatching once you have a base or 2). I know it's not easy but maybe modern guides on farming couch potato's, gold, gardening alternatives(nobody talks about other choices for gardening snacks without couchies) could help. I grew Prickly Bear Cactus, Corn Bread Fruit bush(only 20% chance of a mega), white Tiger Lily, Fish on a vine and likely more gold choices to help supplement my limited snacks.
100% it’s anti casual I got on after years and couldn’t get help with anything so I made it my mission to just pass everyone and never have to ask for help again.
gold drops gone, gear drops gone, no more double garden rewards, pet madness is impossible to train and hatch with no gold, the horrendous new content that is next to impossible to understand, double school spells that confuse the crap outta me, just a complete shite show now
you know some of this problem could be solved with in game voice chat but i don't see ki ever adding that sense its a "kids" game as if any are actually playing it
@@cheervalx they could base it off of credit card authentication like they already do for allowing you to say basically numbers and make it invite only but yeah i see what you mean i worry a little too lol

Nightmare dungeon has terrible drop rates. Makes me wonder how long I’m even going to continue to do it.
:(
advanced content also poses a massive issue for free to play players that use quizes to do things, since spellements cost crowns to swap
