Wizard101 Five B.O.X.E.S Event

Earlier today, the Wizard101 team quietly released a brand new event for the month of October that’s sure to be a treat for all the Doctor Who fans out there. We’ve been seeing a dashing Marleybonian named The Professor in Regent’s Square for some time now, and finally we get to see what he’s up to. The Five B.O.X.E.S Event has players assisting the Professor in stopping a new threat from tampering with the past. From the Update Notes, which you can read here:

The Professor, a strange but friendly Samaritan from outside the normal flow of time, has determined a handful of crisis points in the history of the Spiral! Someone, or something, is threatening to unravel much of what we know as true and fact – by nudging certain events, twisting others, and threatening to destroy yet more, this force puts Wizard City and all worlds of the Spiral at risk!

Where do I start?

  • If you are 10th level or above, Talk to The Professor in the Wizard City Commons
  • If you are 30th level or above, Talk to The Professor in Marleybone’s Regent’s Square
  • If you are 40th level or above, Talk to The Professor in Mooshu’s Jade Palace
  • If you are 60th level or above, Talk to The Professor in Zafaria’s Baobab Crossroads
  • If you are 80th level or above, Talk to The Professor in Avalon’s Caliburn

w101-p101-crossoverHere the story line takes a curve that will blow your mind. You will go to the world of Pirates, straight to the Skull Island. Once you get there you will find yourself with 2 Cutthroats. They will inform you that Maestro is stirring things up and that he set a bounty on a few troublemakers. That will be your first fight. Storm boss named Chomper McGill has 7k+ health and his ice Minion has around 2k+ health. Watch out because he may cast a storm Efreet upon you, which leaves -90 accuracy mantle.

Your second fight will be against 2 Fire Red Claw Thug. It’s a mob fight and they each have 2890 health.

Ahoy me mates, oops this is Wizard101 but here we have 2 heroes from the Pirate101 world. Boochbeard and Mr. Gaundry in the flesh. They have been captured by Red Claws so you have to fight your way to get them out. Again, the mob fight against fire mobs, each has 2890 health.

maestro-and-deaconAfter you defeat the mobs, you go up on the ship deck just to find Maestro talking to Deacon (one of the most nefarious villains of the Pirate world). Maestro is telling him that he has captured Boochbeard and Mr. Gaundry and that Deacon should deal with them, because these two will save an orphan pirate in the future. That orphan child will set a whole chain of events that will set Deacon to his own doom. Your last battle here is against Armada officers. Their boss is storm, Custos Decimus, and has 7360 health and is followed by 3 balance Armada Marines (minions) with 1820 health, each.

You saved Boochbeard and Mr. Gaundry which after the battle is over are going on their way to search for the pirate orphan.

**Currently, friends can port in during your visit either the first or second time with Laszlo. If porting in the first visit, the porter can still pick up the Drake’s assistance. If porting in the second visit to Laszlo, you will be void of Drake assistance. Also note, unless you are on a quest where you must enter or pass through Laszlo’s room, the door is locked. I was also able to port into the room where we battle the Dragonclaw Guard.
