Wizard101's Aquila - New Extension, Level 75 Minion Spells, and More!

New Wizard101 Aquila expansion for levels 30+, 70+, and 90+? New Wizard101 minions for all schools? Locking items? Naming decks? All this and more in the latest update! I'll be focusing on Aquila and Wizard101's new level 75 minions!

Wizard101's New Level 75 Minion Spells

First off, here's a look at Wizard101's brand new level 75 minion spells! They're no-PvP, but they look promising. I can't wait to try mine out!

All Wizard101 Level 75 Minion Spells

There was a lot of concern about Myth getting a 6-pip minion rather than five. First, the extra pip probably shows in the minion's ability. Second, Myth already has a five-pip minion. Now they have a 6-pip one. Plus, with power pips, you end up using six anyway.

I'm actually glad they're no-PvP. I hear these are powerful - nearly double the power of Talos. That's why they're level 75+ minion spells. I hear the Ice one casts Tower Shield, so I'm going to guess that these are worth looking into.

Aquila at Last!

Aquila isn't a new world in Wizard101 - it's an expansion. In Cyclops Lane, after a few pre-quests, you can now take a magic chariot to Aquila and compete in the Immortal Games. Here, there are three major instances - Olympus (level 30+ wizards), Atlantea (level 70+ wizards), and Tartarus (level 90+ wizards).

In these instances, you fight a number of immortals and olympians. The theme is strong, and the three instances are definitely some of the highlights of Greek Mythology. Not to mention that you can start this area as early as level 30, and be challenged as late as level 90. That's impressive. I think this is just the kind of new content we needed.

I put together a quick video of me running around the hub area. The only other areas are the three instances. It's very beautiful - take a look. (Available in HD)

What'll be annoying is having to run through Cyclops Lane each time you want to visit and not being able to use the Spiral door.

Other Impressive Updates

We can now lock items in our inventory so they can't be sold or deleted. We can also now name our decks - this is big, because it shows that KingsIsle is listening to feedback. That was a majorly requested change. But they also slipped in some more sly updates. For example, there's a new one-boss dungeon in Dragonspyre's library that drops a bunch of the crafted spells AND has a chest. Not only that, but she's got a new spell that I'd sure love to have, pictured to the right.

I think there are a lot of fun other surprises, too. For example, you can get Zeus's lightning bolt as a weapon, or an enchanted sword and shield pet that has "May cast sword and shield." I'll be curious to see what that is.

Stay Tuned!

I'll be sure to keep you update on what's happening in the Test Realm! Thanks for reading and see you in the Spiral!
