Contest!

I will be having a contest.  The objective is to make a cool look for a death wizard using Death symbol clothes.  You must list the name of each article of clothing so that I may find out how to get it.  you must send a picture of each item in the email all together on the item preview or on a mannequin is fine but I would prefer to have it be on a male character/mannequin.  What's the reward?  5 hoard packs of your choice!

See ya in the Spiral!

A little news.

I decided to train my Brave Hound a bit and he got spritely on his first try, nice!  I also got the lute wand from the Hydra's Hoard pack and the attack is a power slide guitar solo.  Here's a pic!

Cool right?

-See ya in the Spiral!

Time to be brave.

If you enter the code brave on the Wizard101 website you'll get a bravehound pet with the same pedigree as a level 58 pet!  This ends when July does so don't wast time.  So just enter the code BRAVE as if it were a gift card.

Maybe I Was Wrong...

After making my post about how I was leaving, I took time to read back on my earlier posts and I realized that I missed Wizard101 a lot and I decided to return to the spiral!  Using the $10 I made from mowing the lawn, I'm getting a month of membership.  I also got the world's most beautiful and poetic comment from Destiny the Traveler that reads:Sean, I respect your decision to leave, but know that you will be missed. I, if not we, really do hope that you will go far.
Keep Traveling. Life's path not only gives opportunity, but it can lead you away from things as well. Stay on it and you'll do just fine. 
Have a good one,
Destiny

That almost  brought a tear to my eye.

For once I will actually see you in the spiral!

-Sean Dragonflame

P.S.  Destiny we need to meet because you're the one who inspired me to return to the game.  Your comments have also given me a lot of inspiration to go on.


Edit:  I will also throw that krok palace party later.

Goodbye Spiral.

I've had some good times with Colin Iceblade, Mark Stormhunter, Talon Seagem, Malorn Ghostrider, Travis Titantheif, and my close cousin John Darkblade.  It's been a good run but after the losses of some family members and the loss of a pet I got depressed and lost my motivation to play.  I've played Everything from Poptropica to World of Warcraft and had a blast doing it.  I've found a lack of interest in the game and noticed that the worlds became more and more repetitive and the cheating bosses have gotten more plentiful making for a stressing experience in the new worlds.  I've also found balance was getting A LOT of disadvantages that the other schools weren't getting (i.e. level 58 pet hybrids).  I'll be leaving the Spiral.  I might not come back, I might come back later.

See ya in the Spiral (not really)

We Need a Logo!!

Hey Guys!!!

Well, recently I was thinking of jazzing up 

the blog design a bit and I came across a bump in 

road. We need and epic Balanced Blizzard logo! So,

I was going to ask if there was anyone willing to

design a cool logo or design for the balanced blizzard!
Just message me the image if there's anyone who wants to
and if you can't just let me know and I'll provide more 
information on where you can send it too :D

On a side note, I will be posting about later with

a whole new post because I had not posted yesterday.

:D So, don't worry there's more to come!

Here's That Timeline I Promised!

Hey Guys!!! 

Well, yesterday I promised a timeline post about

my newly made Storm wizard, Colin Stormwielder. And here's

what I'm able to give you based off the few screenshots I took

along the way. So here you are! :D

Well, here's an Oldie :D I'm almost certain that this comes

from my level 28 quest for Tempest. Clearly I was in Krokotopia

 finishing up the quest :D

My next screenshot take a large leap forward in

 time. Bringing us to the completion of MarleyBone!

We are pictured with our epic hybrids!! :D

... and some really girly wands...

But anyway, onto the next memory :D

Well, as we get closer to the present here I am

shown summoning the Storm Lord to ask him to combine

some elements for me to complete my spell, Triton :D

And now I currently have just begun 

DragonSpyre!! :D I hope to continue my 

adventuring on my Storm wizard and get him 

high up in levels.

One Little Thing :D

Hey guys I'm always looking for your opinion and 

if this post was to your liking and if you want me to post

more on my storm wizard's adventures let me know by checking

off your reaction or posting a comment below. I'm always looking

 for what my audience wants to see more of and what they like

 about me and Sean's blog. So let me know haha :D

I'm Back, And I'm Here To Stay

Hey Everyone!

Hey Guys, its been sooooooooooo long, and I have to say I'm sorry.

I haven't posted in FOREVER, and it feels great to be back with all of you

and back to the game. I was gone for so long for a number of reasons, but I know we have awesome fans out there that I'm sure missed some of our updates on what we're doing in the game, and our guides, and just everything. It feels great to be back and now I'm here to help and keep you updated. 

Lately I've been working on my newly made Storm wizard. I'm gonna be leveling him a lot, but I'm still going to frequently on Colin Iceblade. So if you see me, give me a shout :D I'm gonna look a little like this: 

Hahah, but on this wizard I'll most likely be questing around in DragonSpyre without a doubt. And I'll have a timeline post on his adventures coming soon!

So again, I'm so sorry for being gone for so long, but I'm back and here to bring you what's new and add my personal opinion to jazz it up a bit :D Also we'll have the polls open asking you about your person opinions on updates soon as well.

Avalon's Here!

Avalon's come out and i'm not too excited.  Sure thw world looks cool but update means glitches to be fixed again, include dark spells (when a spell's colors are darker).  I also viewed the new level 78 pets and there was something that bugged me.  The bone dragon pet they made looks like the mount rather than the spell.  I hope KI wasn't just too lazy to make a new pet so instead they took the bone dragon mount and give it the movements of  the dragon pet.  I hope in the live realm they changed it so it looks like the spell.  Speaking of death me and Colin have been working on our new wizards who are now in the ancient burial grounds of Mooshu.  My wizard is Sean Soulhunter, a level 39 necromancer, while Colin's wizard is Colin Stormwielder, a level 37 Diviner.  I just hope they change the bone dragon so my pet isn't the same as my mount.

-See ya in the spiral!

First post in a while.

First, I'm glad to be back in the spiral!
Now, onto news. First up is the two new packs, Kirin's Hoard and Ninja's Lore pack. Both of these are very cool but I personally feel they could've added a Mooshu mount to the ninja's lore pack. It could be something like the, "Force of Nature" +40% walk speed, and look like a spiritual warhorse. Anyway, the Kirin's horde pack is good in the amount of rewards you can get. gotta add that to my mount list.
Nightmare: check
Raven: check
Bone dragon: double check
Wyvern: check
Kirin: nope...
Back into the news, mount a palooza #2 is here!
Avalon is here too and it puzzles me... There is a level cap increase but no new spells, just pets. A bit of a reverse level 58, do the pets first then do the spells.
I'll have a bit of questing to do to get fro 61 to 70 then from 70 to 80 without the aid of a level 78 spell. This time, the school pet hybrids have been done right. Well at least for balance. I hated the level 58 balance pet because of how it only had two hybrids that you could get, but now with the chimera I can get more than 2. Even though the chimera hybrids aren't special just chimera darkened or lightened. Efreet hybrids however look crazy cool. I will be online from time to time from now on.

-See Ya in the Spiral!

New Pack!

In case you haven't heard already there is a new pack in the store that is the first of the four so far to give a two person mount. I got a bow and arrow (in my opinion the coolest weapon ever, stealthy yet strong) a lot of frozen Grizzleheim warriors, the complete set that matches the bow, and an arctic ninja pig pet! No mount sadly :( but I did also get the new moon flower. I'll really need to buy some more to get that mount because I have the bone dragon, nightmare, and night weyvern mounts, this will make a nice addition to my collection of mounts. The pictures of my packs are below and a picture of me in my armor.

-See ya in the spiral!

**EDIT**

These are not all of the pictures I got 5000 crowns worth and on a completely different note we've reached over 2,000 pageviews!
