Wizard101| Portal Of Peril Is BROKEN!

[@Zaepha]

Is there anything more chaotic than doing a high level dungeon with completely random players of all levels? At least Portal of Peril will keep you on your toes! But seriously, what changes do you want to see beyond the much needed bug fixes? I NEED them to put the permanent Roc mount in the rewards shop!

[@xenoflare1099]

dude, the bugs actually make the farming so much easier because when you get multiple bosses spawning it gives you extra rewards, without the bugs you earn a maximum of 15 coins but with the secret boss you can earn up to 45 coins from one run if you get lucky and it spawns 3 bosses, but usually it spawns 2 and each boss that spawns drops 10 coins

[@atomgrounder857]

What changes? A complete and total firing of all staff and a hiring of people who know how to do their job. Literally Everquest from before 2000 would have a bug and they fixed it in a few days.And this 'got disconnected' issue? How can EVE online have ONE single Space fight with 5000 players yet every single day you hear, 'Oh she got disconnected' HOW? Connections are using with most companies use fiber optics while KI is still on dial up.

[@prototypebunny1061]

the thing about the gold skeleton keys- that really isn't an issue, like there are already too many ways to easily get gold skeleton keys (to the point that I feed them to my pets just so they don't crowd my backpack) having to save resources for them is a blessing honestly

[@JasThunder]

How many do you have?? You shouldn't be feeding them to your pets because they are really hard to get nowadays.

[@prototypebunny1061]

@@JasThunder uhhh.. have you ever done daily assignments? Or any of the event things ki runs weekly? If they're hard for you to get, maybe it's a skill issue I have at least 20 on each wizard, I wish I could auction them I'll link to a pic of my bank & Backpack when I get home

[@TheUnholyEmpire]

The funny thing about the duplication glitch is that i completely did not realize it happened to me so when i got THREE sets of 5 fortune coins from the secret boss i thought it was normal lol.

[@sabercat5490]

I appreciate that you're doing this and that you outline everything in great detail. It's kinda sad that you're the only one but I can see why everyone else isn't doing this cause it disheartening when dealing with these things from KI all the time.

[@cliffordadam100]

Besides the prize pricing, limited credit access, and bugs lol, this is interesting end game content. Really excited to finally craft a retriever token pet. Might finally invest in spellement farming now

[@jacksonconley5117]

I was really disappointed by this event. I did this for the first time on my level 80 death wizard and had to fight the level 170 version of the boss and my stats didn’t get buffed up. And on top of that all I got was fortune coins and I didn’t get the badge or the Iron Sultan Statue for completing the first time. So overall this event was a massive disappointment and not worth doing again.

[@uiucchemistry2664]

This just proves how incompetent the devs are to release this half-assed AND late! Like all the issues we brought up to them even BEFORE it went live, and KI still can't get their shit together. There are issues with dialogue/writing saying 3 credits despite the system giving 2 credits for non-members & 4 for members. The gauntlet is too close to the carousel, there is no progress bar despite being treated as an event that only lasts for one week. Then there are all the issues with actually doing the gauntlet once inside. What was the point of KI releasing this so damn late only for it to be bugged just as badly if not worse than test realm!? KI needs to be held accountable for their crappy updates and should be called out to do better.

[@demonsdreamsxx8072]

I tried to grind this dungeon with my boyfriend, and it glitched him under the floor into the secret boss room and spawned ALL ranking Metallossus (definitely didnt spell that right lol) and my team only had 1 person with shadow spells (they were barely over 100) I hope they fix the bugs soon!! It was so fun to play but also so stressful 😅

[@williamr3269]

Thank you so much for an in depth video. I was so confused with what the event excatly was ❤

[@MrMiraculon]

Although this whole event was broken, it was INSANELY fun, like we had randos working together in a way I could not imagine with the level differences. Especially with the benefit of bonus coins if you hit the final boss just right, and triple 5 coins for the secret boss regardless if you pull 1, 2, or 3 of them. We spent so many coins in just the first day. In a way, I kinda want this to be a feature, the chaos factor. Of course, without that glitch that makes a random player just go somewhere else completely.

[@universal_wisdom3416]

I just want to thank you for being a consistent Wiz content creator. Not many wiz KZbinrs nowadays, so seeing a new video is refreshing.

[@Caddeus]

I'm also wondering why we can't get the badge in this event for completing the gauntlet.

[@jacksonconley5117]

I know right that just doesn’t seem right. And you don’t get the Iron Sultan Statue either. Those two factors were my major reasons why I was so disappointed with this event.

[@CaspianArk]

THIS!! My second run of the gauntlet, i got pulled to a separate fight at the steeletons, and another player in the SAME dungeon, was also pulled to another fight right after!!

[@kingtomofficial]

I should mention. For the sinbad dungeon. If you do it for the first time, you don’t get the iron sultan statue as a reward. You actually have to get the dungeon yourself.

[@gekeh5307]

I have received the ROC mount from the Secret boss, the spawning skeleton one

[@Zaepha]

Looks like both bosses now drop the perm mount then, which IS a nice change at least!

[@wolfhatfacts]

ilysm thanks for all this info, i wasnt going to play it. but you made it seem kinda worth. i see you got the wyrm XD

[@Zaepha]

I did! A kind friend gifted me a pack of 10 and I got the drop! Clearly my own luck is just terrible.

[@wolfhatfacts]

@@Zaepha YESSSS BEST WIZ KZbinR NO CAP

[@feyernightblade2050]

Your rundown of the first gauntlet run had me laughing for 10 minutes 💀💀😭

[@NotSnak]

Interestingly i have not encountered any of the bugs youve listed while playing which is nice. Ive been grinding the event since my last comment and have gotten gear drops since. I can confirm that leadite drops atleast a 7 day Roc mount as ive gotten it so id assume he can also drop a perm one.

[@hrc7715]

400 lore spellements or 1 golden skeleton key The choice is obvious lol

[@chaozgaming8565]

I've also noticed the Iron Sultan's "Shadow Sultan spell" attack seems to keep targeting the lowest level player, even if they're KO'd when the cheat goes off. Remember when the Sinbad Gauntlet was bugged with the first mob fight not spawning? Now there's too many spawning.

[@Sergio719412]

Zaepha you’re the absolute BEST!!!! I had all the problems you mentioned, I was so excited to go through the gauntlet I ignored all the glitches.. thanks for all the great videos and making all aware of the glitches!

[@pastelhime9852]

I have faced two iron sultans BOTH WITH CHEATS at the same time, Been yoinked from before the boss to the lowest level to fight 1 minion when I only had support spells, have yet to face the golden dragon, fought thr skeleton secret boss which multiplied in the middle of the ring causing extreme lag, AND ran this dungeon 8 times on 1 account the first day as it never used my credits. WILD

[@andremelo2756]

I can say i got 1 day and perm mount from secret boss

[@Zaepha]

Good to know!

[@AntonConstanti]

the unforgiven dad gauntlet

[@alexaudio1]

Careful sis, KI tends to remove from their program the content creators who “criticize” them… lol

[@sonnieaaron]

I chose to do the gauntlet the first day I was aware of it. I got trounced at the second level, came back and trounced them. I thought I had one more chance, but after getting trounced by the boss the red return icon appeared near my spellbook THREE more times even though I'd finally beaten the boss. Sadly, not knowing about the secret boss, I had to waste the 4th one due to an emergency. I may try it again before it's over (unless I've missed it already), but ... GOLLY!🙃

[@gomezmichael1998]

Best w101 content creator ❤

[@LamplightProductions]

I just finished my first two plays (first one solo and another with a team up crew). Neither time clearing it gave me drops from the final OR secret bosses! Not to mention how incredibly bugged out the team up run was; my level didn't get scaled and every fight was full of SO many duplicate enemies. During my solo run I didn't even see Leadite, but there were at least ten extras when I was playing with a team. I'm honestly just miffed I didn't get a single gear drop. I didn't get any drops my solo run, and only tc during my team run >:/

[@shadowspartan110]

They need to remove the badge lock on the arc 2 spellements thats there for no reason. I stopped progressing in Azteca because every fight I've been cutting it dangerously close or having to die and return every single time so when I saw there were spellements being offered in this event I thought "hey this is an easy way to work on making myself stronger why not?" Little did I know they locked the arc 2 spellement exchange for only people who beat Arc 2. Just why? Every other method to obtain those spellements can be done by people who haven't beaten it so why is this one locked to those who did???

[@Zaepha]

Yikes, didn’t even notice the badge lock cuz I was using my max character. Yeah, they def need to remove that too!

[@nooneissafe202]

Needs better rewards like all you had to offer was a gold key when damn near every other event has a gold key as a reward also it’s annoying , and literally you’re just farming reagents to get other reagents they should just make them random drops in the dungeon

[@all777shadow4]

Team up doesn't scale the players but entering directly on the sigil scales them... At the moment at least....

[@kaceydelrey]

so definitely get the elemental retriever or spiritual retriever seems like the only thing worth it

[@Rukusoru]

i can confirm metallossus drops the perm roc, i got it in my last run tho idk which version did it as there were 3 of them in the fight and the dupe is from level scaling not the first run, my first run was witha team of people all at 170 including me from a discord server im in, all my runs after had dupes bc it was from team up with people of all levels

[@makromati]

Swiggity swooty, you're coming to the secret booty :D. Yeah i was teleported there and without scaling stats. I had to leave and teleported back, this time i got to walk all the way up just to fight with 3 iron sultans ( i was late... ) so i got blown to smithereens. Not even Chaos Motes are as chaotic.

[@Austin101123]

I got the Roc mount from metallossus my first run, didnt even know it was a thing hahaha

[@brazil-y2y]

I posted during/post test, here there and everywhere. You all jumped on the hope train. I don't know why you can't see through KI but here we are again. KI doesn't value players time. Even I thought KI would half gold keys reagents, I never said but anything, but dang... 27 runs for a golden key LMFAO. Why is nobody promoting Daily Assignments? A full account get 6 per 15 days, 12 per month for far less effort than this Portal Of Peril for ONE wizard. LOL Wake up Wizards to Daily's, quick and easy.

[@radiohead106]

They still need to add the ability to scale DOWN to a lower tier dungeon. It sucks being on a level 55 wizard and not being able to be scaled down for the level 50 one. While also being super under levelled for the level 100 version. For slower players it sucks to realise it might be impossible to do this Portal of Peril as I will not be a suitable level before its over.

[@litehour]

You can click on the sigil/person instead of pressing "X"

[@Khaliesahra]

I got no business watching this at my puny level 😂😂😂✌🏿 but I’m still watching the whole thang. Shout out Zaepha

[@ericcastillo4026]

Well I can tell you your wizards is not getting scaled, I am a member I did get the 4 credits, but I went in with a Fire wizard level 34, a wizard lvl 108, and lvl 170, we weren't scale in any way or shape, bosses kept one shotting me in ever fight, on the first round.

[@BlackNumberTwo]

Some how I got 35 for one run. 15 from secret boss and 20 from the boss. Both of them duplicated. I think you get more coins if this happens. :)

[@JoshDaTrueBoss]

The poor level 46 in a level 150 doungeon 😔he stood no chance

[@nickjarvis8673]

Can confirm the secret boss does drop the mount 👍🏻👍🏻

[@BlazeStormCloud]

Fun fact, they changed the name of the update after I made my comment at 0:09 LOL

[@Zaepha]

I saw Sparck’s response a bit lower down 😂 Ya’ll were making some good points.

[@dodo2982]

WAIT! You guys get drops? I swear I did 6 runs so far and I only got the fortune coins no extra drops. What the fudge… Also I get only 2 credits per day despite being a member, I had no idea.

[@NotSnak]

The gear drops are really rare but do happen

[@dodo2982]

@@NotSnak Not only gear, I get nothing, not even gold…. I am so upset. I think it has something to do with the scaling as I am level 90.

[@NotSnak]

@@dodo2982 you don't get much gold but if ur talking abour fortune coins then thats genuinely a pretty big issue bur i dont know if its from being scaled up as the character ive been doing the event on has been scaled up from 140 to 150

[@choby8555]

This wouldnt be an efficient event to do even if 1 fortune coin bought you 7 spellements :/. It seriously needs fixing. 2 spellements for 1 coin when you need close to 3000 total spellements for one character? come on now...

[@choby8555]

not to mention you have to wait out a crafting timer to buy the spellements with the coins? so if you want to turn 500 coins into a very measly 1000 spellements, you will be spam clicking magda's craft button for atleast an hour.

[@choby8555]

remember when arc one spellement bosses dropped 14 spellements total? and you could do the boss fight in 2 minutes if you had a high level wizard carrying? Yeah...

[@Cerberus99999]

1:37 lul, at karic, not anymore you don't

[@polarplays]

This is some good expending

[@trevorhash]

i got 19 fortune coins from one run due to getting 4 bosses on the last battle(i did not do the secret boss)

[@alexaudio1]

Is wizard101 deliberately trying to disappoint their audience?

[@jacksonconley5117]

It sure seems like it.

[@arrowbow122]

I did 3 runs on the first day and got 0 gear drops. I got lots of coins from duplicate boxes, but no gear in any of the runs.

[@NotSnak]

Thats the case for most of my runs aswell. The gear drops are just rare but i can confirm they do exist and drop ive gotten a couple wands and some robes and a pet or two

[@Raniimusic]

Wait yall are getting gear?? lol

[@Tommy-q8s]

They should have fixed the problem before putting the game out so this wont happen

[@thomashaas1359]

Ive been playing w101 for 10 years, im just now finding out you can ride the carousel???

[@dbopfire103]

I think for the key price it should go down but not 50 that's too low let me explain, we already have events such as spiral scene/showcase that give 1 key per progress bar if you do everything for 5 days out of 7 or all 7 if you do 80% of the objectives cuz no likes fishing even if it was half non members would still not have enough so I think 210 is a great price for a key that way members get 2 keys per event. Shake? 🤝

[@Zaepha]

I guess I’m thinking about total time spent rather than days when throwing that number out. Most of the other events like spiral scene or showcase can be done per day in like 20 min or less (since you don’t actually need to do every activity to get the points you need) So let’s say you get 500 points in either event over X number of days, you shouldn’t be spending more than 1-2 hours at most to get the points you need for a key. The portal of peril gauntlet takes about 20 min average (varies by team obviously, some will be faster, some slower, but adding secret bosses in for extra fortune coins will def make it longer) but if you have to then grind out enough for even just 210 points you would have to spend roughly 4.5 hours or more per key or double that for the current 400 point cost. Not such a great ratio by comparison to the other events now from a total time investment spent, is it?

[@journeyman_otb3983]

That price for the skeleton key doesn't make any sense. It is so easy to obtain skeleton keys from doing just about anything else they have built into the game. Why not make this easily accessible item that you can obtain through other means, just as easily accessible? I also think that if they're still having bugs for this content, after several years of trying to work through it, then why are they releasing it? I get that they always need to be working on new content, but if it's broken, why are they putting it out? Is this KingsIsle we're talking about, or Bethesda?

[@daydreamzz420]

I got perm roc mount from secret boss

[@P-B-A-N]

[@alexaudio1]

Worst event they’ve made. Complete flop only benefits pvp players

[@NotSnak]

I wouldnt say it completely only benefits pvp players. Being able to obtain lore spell spellements means you can eventually unlock/learn the spell. And being able to buy elemental and spiritual retriever is really nice. With this being said the stuff like the TC's 100% benefits pvp players almost exclusively

[@jacksonconley5117]

I was disappointed with this event because I didn’t get the badge or the Iron Sultan Statue. And I didn’t find the fortune coins all that interesting. And on top of all that, there was hardly any loot dropped and it was much harder that the original version and that just seems morally wrong.

[@atomgrounder857]

Am I wrong or did PAC MAN not have bugs? It has become normal for KI and several vompanies to release things THEY KNEW 100% that it was completely wrecked. TO me, they basically said YEAH! LET make a HOUSE with NOTHING in it and costs like 10 or 15 bucks maybe a 39 dollar bundle. So since we as players have become USED to every release being shite, KI says, well they expect it so WHO CARES! Release it!!! We will fix it in a year or 4
