Shalek the Wise appears to be morphing into some higher being..!

He's moving in ways that are not natural to the game, but for some reason excluding his walking stick.youtu.be/XWy5fFNGCiI

Hello, it's Heather again!

So, a quick follow up on Shalek the Wise. It appears that his morphing into a higher being is complete, and now he looks like as if he is possessed by the devil..! I am genuinely spooked from him whenever I look into his eyes..!

Hello,
It appears now that all elderly Kroks are possessed by the devil..! Their eyes still creep me out..! This has occurred on all elderly Kroks that I've seen so far, including these..!

There are so many bugs, I'll just list a few. Using the option of 'go to the event' for deckathalon, it still takes you to the library, not the new pavilion. Fully redeeming a code doesn't register each time, so the person doesn't receive the items. The new unforgiven gauntlet has bugs. It doesn't register the correct levels nor lets more than one person exit as the doomsday krok gauntlet once did. If the new death draconian glitch of the overtime damage is indeed not a glitch, the storm wolf needs to be un-nerfed. If you can not do anything about the bots buying things from the bazaar as they are sold before anyone can get them, you need to offer a person to person trade option, I suggest friends only, and a crown cost per trade for crown items.

Issues staying logged on wiz.

- The loading screen gets stuck when trying to play pet games.
- Unable to load zone and this area is not ready messages
- Porting to a friend is not always working. The load screen gets stuck then game shuts down.
- A few attempts at logging in caused wizard101 error
- A friend said he too had area closed when he went in one of his teleporters.

- Even right now I have a message on my screen that reads, Problem. That area is closed right now, try again later.

I sent a ticket to Support but I have a lot to do on the game today and time is running out.

Can you guys fix the Wizard101 game from buffering really slow after playing the game for about 3+ hours or more?

I always have this problem where the game runs very slow after I play the game for a period of 3+ hours and the only way I have found to make the game go back to normal speed and processing is to shutdown the game and log back in after 3+ hours

Thank you

I don't know if you know this but in my case I always respond to Sparck if I want to get a reply to my answer from the game

I have never seen the game so slow. I have verified this is not a local problem, and other players have also observed the following:

  • Extremely long times for dialogs to appear, and for the character name to appear on the screen so I can talk to it.
  • Transitions between scenes, like when you go through doors or tunnels take up to 30 seconds for me to appear on the other side
  • If I am pulled into battle, the "pull" sometimes takes 15-20 seconds after I've bumped into the character
  • When collecting items (Ail), it takes a very long time to register that the item is collected.
  • This problem is not limited to one world.

These issues make the game intolerable to play. What's more concerning is that I have seen no "We're aware of the problem and are working on it". kind of messages from your twitter support page. I don't think it's very actively maintained.

Please devote some attention to this problem, and keep us posted better than you have. Thanks.

Game locked up on me twice while attempting to fight the Unformed Beast in Unformed World. Each time it happened after I cast Lord of Winter. Gamed locked up and froze and I had to force the game to close and restart.

The same thing that happened to Lofta happened to me whenever the enemy tried to cast lord of winter at the end of Xibalba. I don’t think I can get out of Aztecs until this gets fixed.

Since Fall Update, some Fire Dot spells aren't displaying the Dot rotor when cast. I suspect it's a vertical axis alignment problem, as the spells act normally otherwise.

I decided that I would like to join an alliance and have been trying the Social Kiosk for several weeks now. I always get the same message: "There was a problem asking the owner. . .to allow you (to)join the guild. Please try again later." I have tried several different alliances and always get the same response. So is the Social Kiosk broken? Or is this something specific to my account?

Also, I posted a similar message almost 2 weeks ago in the section on Guilds. My message never appeared. This is only my 2nd post ever, so maybe I did something incorrectly, but posting here seems pretty simple so I can't imagine what that could be. Hoping this post shows up!!

I have two golden and one wooden skeleton keys in my backpack, but I can't start or join team ups for key bosses. The option to start a team up does not appear at the dungeon sigil, and no team ups appear at the kiosk.

My friend, who made an account recently, is being asked to pay crowns for Firecat Alley. Despite the whole free arc thing, and the part where Firecat is included in the free stuff. Any advice? I wish I could gift a membership but I'm strapped for cash right now.

Greets, everytime I press “Z” to take a photo the game complete crashes. Also since updating my Mac to Ventura the game crashes incessantly. This happens everytime Mac has an updated I’ve tried avoiding updating and that doesn’t work either. I’ve also tried going through crossover but with no avail the issues follow to the other platform. There are main story quest that need me to use the photo option and I cannot progress because of this issue. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. -Fellow Wizard

When doing the Malistare the Undying fight in the last dungeon of Darkmoor, people have been joining in late and defeating the first phase for Malistare. For some weird reason this causes the fight to end, with NO second phase for Malistare. This has to be a bug that people are exploiting. I have sent TWO messages already but they have yet to show up, so I'm putting this here.
