Going through the beginning of wizard101 recently for the 1,000th time, I find they "fixed" a few things I wish they had left alone. One is gobbler king in colossus boulevard. Used to be, you could go in, fight the dude downstairs, go talk to the king and put a marker in the balcony area. Then when you were ready to go back to talk to him again, you could just teleport there, saving you another round with the dude downstairs. Not anymore. Why? Why do we have to go through this nonsense again? Also, in the death school, it used to be if a mob or boss put up a -80% death shield, you could bypass that by using a half damage half health spell the death school is so famous for. But no more. Now all your death spells are -80% when they encounter that, regardless of spell type. That's annoying... If you want to make that change for PVP, fine, whatever, but in game I wish it was back to the way it was. Can anyone tell me when/why these minor annoyances were put into effect?
Wait was there a time where drain spells ignored shields? I never knew that
Either way, as a death, I kind of get why it's unfair, both pvp and pve wise. spells that ignore shields are a big deal and it would have made questing a lot less balanced!
ye the death shield was like all other single school shield blocking death damage but not death drains; now the spell card show the fist and the broken heart to indicate the drains will trigger it too.
