STORY

Malistaire Drake, the former Death magic teach at the Ravenwood school has once again remerged, the beginnings of a sinister plan to release death magic across the realm raising all manner of skeletons, ghosts and ghouls to terrorise the peaceful people of The Spire. As a pupil of the school you have been charged by Headmaster Ambrose to improve your studies of magic and prepare yourself to face off against Malistaire and his minions!

GAMEPLAY

At its core Wizard101 is an MMORPG, in it players can move around a 3D environment visiting different locations, talking with NPCs and picking up quests, and fighting against various AI enemies in order to gain XP and level up. The game features a combat system similar to a turn-based card collecting game (CCG) and players can build up various spell cards and create their own deck to do combat with.

MAGIC SCHOOLS

There are seven primary magic schools in the game, which represent different play styles and have different spells associated to them:

Storm – A powerful magic that focuses on high damage and destruction, but whose users are typically weaker in hitpoints

Fire – Focusing on abilities that do damage over time, damaging opponents over a number of rounds

Ice – A primarily defensive school where users have higher hitpoints and can improve their own defences against opponents

Myth – Summoning various minions, whose own magic offer variety to such a student of this school of magic, they are able to fill many roles

Balance – Whilst a Myth magic user summons minions with different abilities, the Balance wizard can use them themselves drawing on various elements to find the best (and sometimes worst) of the different schools

Life – Masters of restorative magic that can aid and heal not just themselves but also their allies, making them a particularly welcome addition to a group of wizards

Death – A difficult school of magic to master, Death wizards must carefully combine multiple spell cards over a series of rounds to feel the full effects

COMBAT

The combat system itself can take place in PVP in an Arena against other player in 1vs1, 2vs2, 3vs3 or 4vs4 duels, battling for practice or in ranked mode to earn points and climb the leaderboard in order to earn rewards. Most of the time players will battle against enemy AI in PVE battles, seeking out loot, challenges or completing quests; battles are started when the player approaches an enemy in the open world and they are transported into a battle mode which becomes a turn based system of drawing cards and trying to damage the opponent and reduce their hitpoints to zero. When battles are initiated other players in the area can see the battle happening and watch, viewing which spells are cast and the amount of damage that is done; if they wish they can even enter a battle and assist the player already fighting, without needing to be in the same group.

MANA

As well as hitpoints players also need to watch their Mana in combat, each spell cast costs a portion of their mana, without any mana they cannot cast spells and are as good as dead against their opponent. There are various ways to replenish mana, but by heading to the Fairground and playing some of the mini-games, that also gives various prizes for high scores, players can be freshened up and ready to jump back into battle.
